teh "what did you buy today"-thread

[TheClash603]

Mondo has some really nice releases.  Their Gremlins release from last Christmas is one of the best presentations I have ever seen.

Cool records, munchy.  It's cool to see vinyl getting a resurgence and more peeps buying physical tunes instead of always streaming or stealing.

[Bloufo]

Nice lot,
I'm not sure how uncommon the European version is, but Outlook Coast to Coast is one of the most sought after US OG Xbox games.

He got the NTSC version

That's right.




Also got this with a bunch of other cables and power adapters,

Listed as "non-functional",








I opened it up, tested the fuse for continuity. Nada, squat.
(This particular fuse is 125V 5A, fast blow fuse)

So I desoldered it and replaced it with a new one. Fortunately, that's all it appears to have been.
My Duo has been powered by it for a few hours now. No issues as far as I can see.

That Shovel Knight Vinyl looks so sweet man!  I had debated grabbing on of those myself but just couldn't pull the trigger.  The artwork alone looks amazing, you could frame that!

Same for me. Of course now it's all 3rd party seller territory now. I wasn't even aware of the gremlins one. Sow ant it.

Got dick punched today. A nice package arrived, but the Japanese PS2 inside is only reading CD games, not DVD games. The sadness ohhhhh the sadness.

Already resolved the issue though and I'm getting a fat PS2 (can't believe I betrayed myself and bought a slim) Japanese system from a seller on Ebay.

If you like horror movie soundtracks and want to go a little deeper than the Carpenter and Goblin stuff everyone already has, this is a fantastic soundtrack.

Found this wireless joystick for the Turbografx yesterday at an estate sale. It's not that great of a controller, but for $2, I am not complaining.

[esteban]

Damn, Chany!

You can't go wrong for $2.

I am so curious about how that works (infrared). I've never really use an infrared controller as a "main", go-to controller (I move pads around too much)....but a stationary stick actually makes much more sense.

Got these records recently. Can't listen to them til later this week, as the record player is packed for my move

    I am absolutely in love with Shovel Knight!!!  The music is the absolute best, when I bought my PS4 copy it came with a free ITUNES download and it's on my phone now.  What a great game!



Some common and cheap Pickups this past week.





   I already have a couple of Game Cubes but never had 1st Party Controllers, they are so much better than my shitty 3rd party units I bought from 5 Below.  I paid $20 for this total which I feel is good.



Goodwill finds, 50 Cents each.  I am glad to have Red Faction as it was in a recent Game Sack review and looked very good, I am lucky to have found it so cheap and local.



Found this guy today for $1 at a flea market sitting in a pile of junk.  Easy score.


More goodwill, never know when you'll need 4 player action on the original XBOX

Just a loose disc and a cart,










The seller wouldn't sell one or the other separately, so I picked up both PBC's.










A few Wii U games,









And a CD32.






Advertised as having "issues reading certain discs". Tested it with a few games as well as with some unofficial CD32 ports. It plays everything fine.

What I did find on occasion though was that sometimes it would give me a kind of error message like "cannot execute file, not enough memory". Pressing the reset button though seemed to do the trick, and the game would load and play fine afterwards.

Killer find!!!!   How much were they???

You may want to get replacement sticks as the tops of all of those analog sticks appear to be missing.

Some of those Amiga ports to CD32 bug up due to the fact that someone hacked them to run off CD. It's likely not your system but just the port.

I got the error message even while attempting to play my original discs of Banshee, and Dragonstone.
