Games Acquired 2015

[ExedExes]

Speed Kings (Gamecube)
Smuggler's Run Warzones (Gamecube)
Call of Duty 2 GOTY Edition (PC)
*NEW* Pinball Challenge Deluxe (GBA)

I don't have many imported games, but to get this one was a personal quest of mine ever since I read the HG101 writeup years ago. This was a Europe-only release of 2 pinball games by Digital Illusions CE (DICE) - Pinball Dreams & Pinball Fantasies. I don't think any other purchase I make this year will be as good and sought after as this.

Not a game but worth noting: Picked up a Famicom adapter that's on its way to me. Really excited to delve in.

Just took advantage of GameStop's 3 for $10 sale and snagged Arkham Asylum, Dishonored, and Divinity II: Ego Draconis. Not too shabby.

Pretty good month. I always tend to splurge a little after Christmas and this year I treated myself to one of these. I had initially planned to purchase only one accompanying game this month, but somehow that turned into three...

Also picked up some (North American) NES and TurboGrafx games for the first time since 2013. That was exciting.

Other than that, I stuck to my Want List pretty closely and mostly avoided impulse buys. Exceptions include Dewy's Adventure and the ColecoVision Flashback. The latter was marked down to $20 at Sam's Club and I simply couldn't resist.

A good chunk of this came from some things I kept from a lot that I got from jp1 earlier this month, which also included an XBL account that had some things I didn't have (at least on that specific platform). As always, anything I get in that goes directly onto the trade list doesn't get listed, nor do "PS+" or "Games with Gold" titles.

Got the itch today so sprung for some Genesis games at a local used media store.

[SonicGamer74]

Spider-Man & X-Men: Arcade's Revenge

How is that one, BTW? I've always wanted to add that to my Genesis collection.

We'll find out. I was just commenting to a friend I remember renting it back in the day and being disappointed because it looked like ass compared to X-Men for the Genesis. Maybe there's some gameplay to be had that I didn't appreciate back then. In any case, it's a 16-bit super hero mash up for fairly cheap so I'm there
