teh "what did you buy today"-thread

[Gypsy]

Got my half of a trade today. Highlights would be Trails of Cold Steel and Luigi's Mansion. Already played a bit of Cold Steel, it's pretty good!

Got a big Sega lot today. I'll have to dig out some working systems to test games. Once it's tested, I'll be selling the excess on here. Hope you guys like Saturn stuff!

My wallet is quivering.

sirhcman surprised me with some extra Christmas cheer




He was asking me what kind of things I had asked for in the SS, so I guess he took note of what I did not receive from that list, and went above and beyond. I am very thankful, and was absolutely shocked to receive these. When he said that he had sent me something I had no idea what to expect, and this was really surprising. Thanks again sirhcman, too much dude you shouldn't have!
Turbo Karma to sirchman in spades!

Right on sirhcman.

Ark of Napishtim is pretty good, I recently played through it again for no real reason. And Final Soldier speaks for itself really. 8-)

Bought an "untested" Model 2 CD unit relatively cheaply a few months ago. It had the base extender piece as well. It wasn't advertised with that. So that was a nice little bonus.

Things came up and I kind of left it be for a bit. Recently though I found a bit of time, and saw that the issue was the common problem with these Model 2's- the fuse. So the unit is back to life now.

Also managed to pick up a 'Megacart', for region swapping.

That's pretty awesome.

Man, what a huge footprint the Genny 1 and CD2 leaves. Congrats on getting it going.

Is that a wireless Genny controller? Is it any good?

It feels good in the hand and buttons are all responsive, just like your normal six button Genny pads. But sometimes whilst in-game you tend to forget about that line-of-sight that you always need to be taking into account. Otherwise, a good, solid controller.

Local flea market again.  The guy is trying to clear out crap that has been sitting.
Paid $30 total for all of this.  X-Men doesn't have the manual, but cart looks like it was never used.
Haven't tried the DS stand yet, but he said it didn't light up.  Hope to find time later to mess around with it.

 That stand looks a neat find.


BTW, I recognized that first oXbox game right away. It's on a "2 in 1" bootleg disc of mine. lol

What do you think of Konami's Ys VI localization work, as in, did you find the script dry, boring or acceptable, etc. ??

Honestly it's not even something I thought about when playing the game. Usually it takes a lot for me to be annoyed by the script or va. Last game I played where I was actively thinking ugggggghhhhhhh due to a dry translation was Growlanser IV. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Man, Kakuto Chojin.  Didn't that game get pulled from the shelved for some religious blasphemy or something?
