teh "what did you buy today"-thread

That sublime feeling of opening up a brand new game... even if it is Sonic Spike.

And about 50 VGA flippers cried out in pain at the loss of a sealed game.

Mwwhahahahaha

Nice TRON!  I love the Daimakaimura artwork for the MegaDrive

I just wanted to mention that Sturmwind absolutely blew my mind.  I knew the game was in development for years and years, but the end result was spectacular.  Let me know what you think of it.

Yeah the cover art for the japanese gng is great element.I never liked how the u.s cover art was cropped.For sturmwind elder i find it to be a very polished homebrew,really enjoying the shooter.

I visited this place called "People Play Games" In Chicago, and my god they had everything.   So many rare copies from pretty much every system.   Spider Man Web of Fire 32X in the box, $1,000.00.  Everything they had was just overpriced, extremely overpriced, I mean double eBay pricing.  IDK how they stay in business but they had boxed, unopened NES games by the Dozen and unopened Final Fantasy SNES games and so on.

I rummaged around and got some cheap knick knacks.



Very cool store but couldn't really buy anything in there.

Another good day.  Today I visited Mega Replay in Bloomington IL, a subsidiary of Disc Replay which is a chain of about 30 stores in the Mid West which deals with DVD's, Video Games, and Electronics  GREAT prices, below eBay for sure and every game posted below was $3 or cheaper each.  Highly recommend. 



Really happy with my Gradius find a little rubbing alcohol will get that f*ckers name right off that cart.

I'm just ribbing on you.   It's actually good to know some first hand opinions in case anybody wants to visit these places.
It's also good to know you are buying all the crap, so there would be less for somebody else to sift through.

Ah Bloomington, if you keep heading south in IL let me know what you think of Live Action Games in Champaign.  I went there about a year ago and they were decently priced on a lot of stuff, no stellar deals though.

Saturday's mail brought me a copy of Lego Hobbit for the Vita.

I always pass on the Lego games cause they make like 10 of them a year. They're supposed to be pretty fun though yea?

I enjoy 'em, but you gotta be a big fan of Legos or whatever franchise the game is based on for them to be worthwhile.

I feel like some of the lego games are definitely better than others. The Indiana Jones and initial Batman games were kind of eh to me.

I used to go to that store a ton and bought a whole boatload of crap over the years. I definitely agree though that the rare stuff there can be on the ridiculous side price-wise. The owner and his dad are nice, though I have friends who have commented on the owner acting rude at times (that's never been my experience though). Outside of the rare stuff behind glass, you can usually find some stuff at decent prices.

Crap like US AES titles and a NEO GEO bag?  Gradious 4 is quite good.  Maybe commons but no crap.

I'm sure Bass Masters Classic, Madden '97, and Monopoly are the bee's knees, bruh.
