teh "what did you buy today"-thread

[johnnykonami]

The wifey bought me an early Christmas gift this year. I finally got a snes mini! I'm super impressed with its build quality, especially the controllers. Great and surprising selection of games. My only complaints are the length of the controller cords though I'm sure someone out there will be making extensions for them soon.

There's already extensions, check Amazon.  I bought a couple myself, they are plenty long!

^^They're so cheap that I'm going to get a set anyway.

newest GETS (been after Chiki for quite some time), and stoked to have Veigues back in my collection...an underappreciated gem

Apart from being on CD. And ebay listing suggesting it’s a $150-200 dollar game.

How is it different then the Genesis cart game?

IIRC lack of 2 player and some graphical differences :

PCE vs. MD: http://www.tg-16.com/screenshot_comparisons_action.htm#Chiki_Chiki_Boys
PCE vs. Arcade: http://www.pcengine.co.uk/HTML_Comps/Comp_ChikiChikiBoys.htm

In short, the PCE version lacks the parallax found in the arcade and FEKA versions, but it is much more faithful in representing the original Arcade art.  The PCE keeps the two player simultaneous option missing in the FEKA version, but the FEKA version adds a shop between stages where you can spend collected coins on health, weapons, etc.

Got an Arcade Card Duo among some other things from a secret santa on another site. I was kinda blown away, very generous.

Got a copy of Vampire Chroncle: For Matching Service in a trade today.

Been wanting it for a while, especially since I'm riding the 2D fighter train hard lately.

You must know some cool people...
