teh "what did you buy today"-thread

[Mathius]

I bought a 32'' Sony Trinitron. I was super excited about it but now not so much. The colors are either too bright or too dark no matter what I tweak, and the scanlines are too thick. My Sansui 26" might be put back into service.

If you were in NJ I'd take it off your hands.

Not sure if you'd like it, Esty. The reds bleed real bad too. I think I got one of the bad models accidentally.

That sucks that you can't get your desired result. Where did you get it from? Hopefully it didn't set you back too much if you're not enjoying it.

Blah blah blah Sega imports. Cheapo stuff.

Biggest surprise - the JP Dead or Alive 2 manual is like freaking 100 pages of awesomeness.

Now now, I'm sure your love is worth more than the relatively cheap price tag that game carries. :3

4 is the only complete kit but it is also the only one not done by the original metal slug team from the neo geo mvs days to my knowledge.

Just need 1 & 5 for my mvs set.

Picked up an anthology collection for the Wii at $5 a few weeks back as well.

Yep. 
The MS4 kit contents and cart shell are slightly different than the normal MVS specs. 
Even the cardboard box is slightly smaller than the other Slug kits.
At one point, I had full/complete kits of MS1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.  Sold them all off last winter in preparation for a move to lighten my load.

Last few pick ups. Some of this was stuff that came in the mail last few weeks.

That cosmic smash game looked so sweet from youtube videos I checked out m.gave it 30 minutes and it is going to be such a fun game to try and break high scores. I saw a namoi copy on ebay for around $80 free shipping. Might pick it up. Dont have a namoi but it is something I thought of collecting off and on

Ever since I saw Mathius playing this at Galloping Ghost and since I played it after him and loved it, I've wanted this. Really want Die Hard Arcade, it was a lot of fun with the little time I played it.
