Nice PCE there Tats; so clean and purrdy.

Found on front step yesterday: Turbo Tap, Turbo Pad, Ordyne, Yo Bro, Bonk's Adventure, Magical Dinosaur Tour, Lords of the Rising Sun, and Bravoman.  All boxed, brand new, and sealed..... or at least they were.

Grabbed RetroGame Challenge today for the DS over at GameStop a very cool game worth checking out.

[Joe Redifer]

I want to get that game, but nobody has it!  Gamestop says the nearest copy to my location (Colorado) is in Pennsylvania.  This happens whenever I try to buy a DS game.  Nobody stocks DS games!  The system must not be very popular.

Our one GameStop here i go to as a huge wall of DS games but like with RGC most are the only copy they have in the store.

picked up the Legacy of Ys Books I & II for DS. Came with a nice package:

[Joe Redifer]

Oh nice, I didn't know that was out.  Do you like it?  How much did all that stuff jack up the price from the normal $29.99?  Is there a non-special edition?

[nectarsis]

it's $34.99 at GS...the cd is included in all first run editions (was previously only for preorders).

NEC is correct. Although when I opened mine up I noticed a little scuff on the DS case. I called Gamestop and they said I could exchange for another or get a 10% discount. Since I have so many other DS cases I could swap out with, I chose the discount (and left an extra copy for someone that would want it locally).

At first I thought the game could only be played on stylus, but after figuring out that it did work with d-pad, I am going to play this for a while and see what I think. It should be interesting to see this latest translation. The intro closer matches the YS anime videos that I have watched (Adol is washed ashore after getting wrecked in that massive storm that prevents the islanders from escaping).
