Finally arrived. Only disappointment was that Bangai O doesn't support the VGA connection- boo

I picked up some more stuff. I've had Anarchy Reigns on pre-order from Amazon since June and it is out for delivery today (YAY.) The other pickups are just some smaller stuff to round out my Wii collection (how can I say no to a decent Wii game for $1.79). In addition, I had a weird itch to play Wet so I picked up a copy for the PS3 and also grabbed Naruto while I was at it.

I went into Wal-Greens today just to use the bathroom while I was in that part of town, and as I walked by the Christmas section, they had an Atari Flashback 4 console, brand-new, for 75% off. $9.99 for 75 games! What's funny, is that they had an Atari Flashback 3, with less games on it, for $40 because it was a regular item, not a Christmas item. That was a steal! And it was the last one on the shelf!

This came in the mail yesterday. Thank you, Amazon.



I'm not sure how I managed to get what looks like a pre-order copy, but I'm not going to complain.

Lotta times those things aren't so much preorder copies but first-run copies.

And sometimes all but one of the first-run copies sells out, the new shipment comes in, and they're placed in front of the old copy on the rack. And it keeps happening over and over for months until eventually someone grabs the copy from the back. The Walmart I work at has a launch copy of New Vegas for the 360 lying around somewhere, with that orange sticker across the top of the box. That game came out over two years ago.

Hey, like I said. Not complaining. Especially when it comes with an art-book and music, two of my favorite extras, when I wasn't expecting it. I'm sure it's not unheard of, it just surprised me, is all. At least it was a nice surprise, though

Sometimes those limited editions last a long time. My local Best Buy is still stocked with the fat copies of The Last Story with the soundtrack and artbook included.

January:

Beach Spikers (Gamecube)

NEWEST --

Mario Golf Toadstool Tour (Gamecube)


Finally, a Nintendo made game I didn't have to break the bank to get. Best feature is the ability to import a created character from Mario Golf Advance Tour (GBA)!

[TEKTORO]

So far I've picked up Viewpoint (PS1 longbox), Magic Knight Rayearth (US Cib), Oh No More Zombies ate my Neighbors (snes hack repro) plus some manuals and covers I needed, good year thus far. And since everyones updating their collection threads I'll post some updated pics there soon too!
