$20 for Star Fox and SWBF2, both really nice shape and complete.
 
In regards to your plastic/cardboard box confusion...it should be both. Typically, boxes like that are cardboard coated with a polyethylene laminate. It's basically the same thing as a milk carton.

Nice video, but now I want to buy the anthology. You should get a commission from Ubi.

Yeah I figured that XD, In the big box of games, and the 4 games in cd cases, everything minus the personas, GCN games, .Hack's, and Xenosaga's, was all one lot that came with a fat PS2 for $65, I didn't realize what a deal I got until I actually went through them all.

$65 for all those games?
 
[quote name='ZombieToast']My latest pick-ups aren't related to video games, so I'll use spoilers. First, for those who remember my T-Rex from last month, I got him a new friend:

If anyone is interested in seeing the contents of the cabinets (as well as other stuff), check out this post.[/QUOTE]

Lmao! Whaaat the fuuuuuck? I'm not an anime buff, but this shit looks hilarious. What is it?
 
[quote name='AugustAPC']Lmao! Whaaat the fuuuuuck? I'm not an anime buff, but this shit looks hilarious. What is it?[/QUOTE]

It is pretty hilarious, but also incredibly ecchi, and to top it off it's also a harem, so if you're into that kind of stuff I'd recommend.

If you're looking for a more accurate description it's basically about
a boy who one day discovers an angel that grants whatever he wishes her to do, and from there stuff happens
, so basically from there you will have to figure out the rest by watching.

Oh yeah, also if you can't make out the title from the pic it's called Heaven's Lost Property.
 
[quote name='AugustAPC']Lmao! Whaaat the fuuuuuck? I'm not an anime buff, but this shit looks hilarious. What is it?[/QUOTE]

Heaven's Lost Property. Typical magical girlfriend ecchi harem comedy except the main character is a perverted idiot instead of a shy geek.

[quote name='Kovorkian']Nice now you need a pair of dino scissors and a dino stapler[/QUOTE]
Seriously. I haven't had much luck, though, especially with anything in a similar style. And I don't know if the company who made the staple remover and tape dispenser ever made any other supplies 'cause they went defunct in the mid-90's and I can't find any information about them.
 
[quote name='DNukem170']Heaven's Lost Property. Typical magical girlfriend ecchi harem comedy except the main character is a perverted idiot instead of a shy geek.[/QUOTE]

But man, it pretty much became one of my favorite animes. It helps that I like the story a bit.

[quote name='Squarehard']And boy is he ever.[/QUOTE]

He's #1 Pervert in my book. :lol:
 
Finally got myself a tablet/e-reader (Nexus 7 16GB.) This was the first thing I've paid full price for in a long time, totally worth it.

Nah, Roshi is still #1. He wouldn't have held back.

This is my first craigslist pickup in years. I got all this for $80, which I should be able to make more than that off selling some of my duplicates.

Really nice deal. Two Atomic Purple controllers and some really nice games amongst some reaaaally shitty ones too, lol. Supes! But naww man, you got Goemon, Zelda, Mario Kart, Bomberman and Smash... that's worth more than $80 easily.

WOW! I wish I could find something like this. I just found a N64 at goodwill and now I need some games. I see alot of memories there.

Meh, it isn't much noting. Got the Wii/DS for the B1G1 50% Off. To be honest, Spectral Force Genesis is the first DS Game I bought. :lol: Everything else is belongs to my brothers. I'll probably get more stuff this month or next month.

popolocrois is amazing IMO.
 
Ok, when I saw this in disc replay today....I had to get it. I played this so much on pc back in the day and I never knew it came out for a system. Now I'm hoping Bugdom is released for vita lol.

Mafia II CE New $4 shipped
Max payne 3 SE New $20 shipped
Last issue of Nintendo power $5.99
total $30 who wins cheapest gamer this month?

Funny story with the last issue of Nintendo power. I went to walmart to shop with my dad and as I pass the magazine isle I remember talking about this issue and asking friends/family about it. It was the last issue in the store and I almost passed it up, it was behind a stack of some random magazines sitting all by itself. The first time I just briefly looked at the mags, then I started flipping through them and moving them and BAM found the golden ticket.The good thing is I got the issue just as the magazine guy was adding new ones and I asked him if he removes old issues and he said yes. I asked him about Nintendo power but I don't think he knew what I was talking about. I don't even own anything near current gen with Nintendo. Just figured I'd snag it due to the demand and price and the fact I still want to see it. I'm not selling it for profit. Aside from a few single issues in the N64 era I haven't experienced much of NP. This video was a seller for me.

Amazon keep shipping my Hitman trilogy in a padded envelope, so I keep getting them with creases and dents. You can't ship a boxed item in a padded envelope and expect them to arrive undamaged--so annoying! It's minor and cosmetic, so many wouldn't mind, but that's not what I want from a new item.

I was looking to expand my Gamecube collection a little bit. Paid ebay prices for all of these but wanted to get a few more games so it was worth it.
 
20130216_143541_zps35cb3fd9.jpg


I got both 3DS games from the Best Buy sale, the two PS1 games in pristine condition from Craigslist for $5 total and the Xbox and Saturn games for $3 a piece from a local store. I've been meaning to pick up Syberia for a while, I don't own any of the Oddworld's yet, and I'd be hard pressed passing up a mint Saturn case for that price.



20130215_180726_zps0b4d536f.jpg


Yay completing things.


20130216_150017_zps85300d4b.jpg


Kirby from Best Buy, Fire Emblem from Amazon and spent about $5 on the NES controller.

Where'd u get the boxes from?
 
[quote name='Tempius']Bre software has the 3 oversized boxes for $2.xx each.[/QUOTE]

Correct. Just in case anyone is new to the site, do expect to spend at least 2x your total when you include shipping. It's a tad ludicrous, but certainly beats trying to find awesome condition boxes/manuals in the wild.
