The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread

[Samurai Ghost]

and btw I'm noticing a clear trend of PCE game title prices in Japan moving UP in my recent visit to the 2 stores b/t Sapporo and Tokyo.  looks like even the local sellers are realizing there is some worldwide PCE/TG collecting movement going on and raising their prices.  I didnt see any huge bargains this time and paid for instant gratification.. except Doraemon was a steal at 890 yen.  almost picked up a Asuka 120% for 600 yen too but forced myself to stay strict.  that was it.    and oh yea, there was a new Graduation 1 for 50 yen.. lol, but shit titles don't count.  hahah

Yeah, I've noticed prices are getting a bit higher, especially at game shops. Which is why I almost always buy everything online, as it isn't as bad.

[JapanTokei]

I'm noticing even YahooJP are having prices rising, though cheaper, yes.  the con to that is sometimes the conditions are random.. that's the pro of getting it in person I guess.

at this rate perhaps I should hold onto my sealed Bazarru instead of trying to sell it

Tron I need that El Viento case! I only buy genesis games locally and that's the only one I haven't found the case for.

Heh it's case is not going any where.My goal,is to get most of the games again that i had befor cib or loose on the genesis.Though that will depend on price and if it's easier getting it loose then cib.

I've found it's not really any more expensive to get genesis games CIB than it is to get them loose so I usually wait to find a nice complete copy but I couldn't wait for that El Viento any longer! Other Renovation games are sweet too, they had the best releases and packages in the US for Genesis back in the day.

Some guy over at Sega-16 got the same exact items today, though his username is ELabit whereas yours is elabit so you must have some sort of doppelganger out there.

Hudson bee!
It feels a little funny to hold, but it's good quality. The rubber contact pads on the inside are OEM Nintendo, just like the stock pad.

[JapanTokei]

damn, WTF is this pad!!?!?!  totally cool!  is this for the PCE?  drool/want if so!!!

Thanks for the tip, my man!  One's on its way for only $27 shipped.

That Bomberman pad looks like a cheap version of the Ascii Pad.  The Ascii Pad is awesome.  It uses almost all Nintendo OEM parts and even the buttons are interchangeable. I put the purple buttons in mine because I do like how the US pad has two concave and two convex buttons.  Plus I don't like the rainbow colors.  Crazy 90's Japan and their spastic colors/designs.

I hear ya man...  We went through that sort of ordeal about a year ago.  Hopefully they will last a long, long time.

wish i had my own washer and dryer. I currently live in an apartment complex. No one cleans out there lint. It reminds of an episode of Hey Arnold. If anyone knows what I'm talking about then kudos to you.

This one uses all OEM Nintendo parts as well. Even the gray circle around the buttons is the same. The D-Pad top texture is different though, but everything is interchangeable. This is pretty common for Nintendo's third parties.

I got Gotz and Brandish.

Got some new music in the mail today. I recently ordered a new LP by the band Old Man Gloom titled "Christmas Eve I & II + 6 + Live In NYC", its a combo of a 3 inch mini CD they released long ago and a Live set that was issued on a bonus disc only in Japan. Its a fantastic recording, I've got the 3 inch CD but this was the first time I've heard the live set. Well worth the money I spent. Oh and to top things off the distro I ordered it from threw in 3 free albums with it, "Alter" by the band Knut, the self titled album by The Huguenots, and "Bird of Prey" by Zozobra. They were a very nice surprise.

[Mathius]

What are those games, Deadite???:

[SuperDeadite]

Naious is sort of a Thunder Force III clone, great music and presentation.  Lame box art though.
Cyberblock Metal Orange EX is the best arkanoid/breakout style game ever. 
It's totally badass:

Munchiaz - if ur talking top shooties, gotta try Nexzr man.  Its another worldly experience.
