teh "what did you buy today"-thread

[Medic_wheat]

I got a brand-new looking copy of Jumping Flash in a bigdickPSX box for 18$

it looks like whoever owned it never actually touched it.

The case has like no doofy nicks or dents.

f*ck N64.

Longboxes R Dumb.
that's why I don't have that game.
JF2 now, that's a good game.
Came in a standard jewel case and everything.

You could buy the game loose as put it in a jewel case with fan art.

I like ps1 style longboxes way better than the fragile Sega versions. Games like Doom that were re-released in standard jewel cases just didn't have the same cool factor.

The only reason the longbox doom MIGHT be better is because the disc has actual art on it.

but longboxes are dumb.
they were dumb for saturn, and they're even dumber for PSX cuz you can't really replace them

I find dragon half to be funny for an early dub.

Clone 2600 for $5 from a thrift store,










Also picked up a mini SNES, and one of those Retro Gen adapters,










A bit of trivia,

As I found out, SMS/Mark III games can work on a SNES. lol

love that SNES jnr

finally got my speakers after a mix up from amazon where it said that they were delivered and I had to dispute it, after a week I got my money back and ordered from another place.

I've had Amazon dicking up my order recently too, or maybe it's the USPS.  Either way when I pay for prime I expect the delivery windows to be correct, even if they take like 3 friggin days to ship the item.

I just had them 1 day a single Lupin movie (LOOOOL) because they waited to ship it. I ordered it Sunday and they didn't ship until yesterday. This is the kind of crap that causes them to lose money.

Dang I looked those up on Amazon and wow they cost a pretty penny, congratulations on those bad boys I am sure they will sound spectacular!

The wifey bought me an early Christmas gift this year. I finally got a snes mini! I'm super impressed with its build quality, especially the controllers. Great and surprising selection of games. My only complaints are the length of the controller cords though I'm sure someone out there will be making extensions for them soon.

I highly recommend the wireless hori snes controllers. They look and feel great IMO.

they already exist man.  It's just usb exts. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZZN8NG7/ref=asc_df_B06ZZN8NG75293303/?tag=hyprod-20&creative=395033&creativeASIN=B06ZZN8NG7&linkCode=df0&hvadid=228860412633&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3971286824721349580&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9003974&hvtargid=pla-377660178601

Also after hearing about them, and no one complaining too much about the lag, I think I am also going to grab a wireless to go with mine too.
