@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

I'd love to get this and the Link figure. They are just SO WELL DONE

SMF

AWESOME FIGURE. Looks good standing on the shelf.

That figure my friend was going to buy cause he loves samus, but then he spent money on something else. Price rose and now he's pissed.
I really like video games...

Lilgrafx

Got Super Metroid for $15 and Actraiser for $6 at a local shop, I LOVE Actraiser!

Bernie

I like how it combines two separate games in one. Unique idea that flows really well.

Ughhh I HATE Other M.  Love the gameplay, even the crappy missile mechanics, but hate the story.  Except for the black guy.  The "Remembuh me?" guy. :lol

All total it was about $50 with shipping, but you'll be lucky to get it for under $100 now.  SO glad I preordered her.

Did some serious Obeying in the last week... here's what has arrived so far

IMG

And to support my new purchases, I've been revamping my game room and added some new TV stands. Still gotta get another 40" LCD TV for the left one so everything will be symetrical. Thats coming this weekend, probably

IMG

On the left stand: top shelf - NES, SNES mini... middle shelf - N64, Game Cube

The right stand is all NEC: the top shelf is going to be a PC-FX (waiting for it to arrive)... middle shelf - PC Engine Duo, TG16 (CD attachment is currently getting a Chop5 gear swap)

Still working on the setups and moving everything into the room from my old location. More pictures to follow as the work progresses. Oh, and ay no attention to the PS2 on the bottom shelf of the NEC only TV stand... its only there temporarily
Original owner of a TG-16 since 1989!

CURRENTLY PLAYING:
Vita - Conception 2
PS3 - Tales of Graces f
Wii U - Monster Hunter 3 Ulltimate

TheClash603

You need to get a nice old tv in there, nevermind those flat screens and it will cost you about $50!

Otherwise, very nice!

If he gets an old TV he will probably need a new TV stand. I know my TV stand only holds a 100 pund tv, and my tv is like 90 punds. I do have a 27 inch old tv though.

PunkCryborg

Yeah CRT for the older stuff on the other stand for sure

Quote from: BlueBMW on 07/28/2012, 03:46 PMGot in the motherlode today:

All X68000 games:

Valis 2...
You had me at "Valis 2"... Please do a very thorough review and post it here for me. I'm pretty sure you played through the PCE Valis II. If so, compare/contrast, when possible!

GODDAMN, all those classic games on the X68000.... :pcds:
X68k Valis II has very nice graphics, smooth scrolling, and fantastic music.  However the control is beyond terrible, the worst control in the entire series, and that's saying something.  You are essentially locked to a grid (think Tomb Raider), but no "walk button" so you constantly run off platforms to your death, plus UP to jump and you need good momentum or you will not make the jumps.  The music is so good I keep playing it anyway though.
Damn!

The PCE Redbook is my fave soundtrack of all time.

Could you create some mp3's of the X68000 tunes for me?

I WILL LOVE YOU EVEN MORE THAN I ALREADY DO. :pcds:

Thanks in advance.

It would have a spooky "Press Run" startup screen, and then the CD-Rom would start floating around the room

My wife bought that thing too, even though we don't even have a 3DS for her to play it on.  I think the 3DSXL comes out in August though so that'll probably be what she gets.

Yeah, the 3DS XL looks enticing, but I'm going to wait a few months. As with any new console I buy, I go on a shopping spree for games, and I can't afford that onslaught right now :P

Samurai Ghost

That's why I avoided the 3DS in the first place. There were barely any decent titles at launch and even months later, and I knew they would come out with a vastly superior revision a year or so later. Nintendo is even worse than Apple in this respect. Early adopters totally get screwed.

i Def wouldnt say its vastly superior to the normal 3DS. the only major change is bigger screens. But for me the screen size is fine. plus the 3DS is smaller which i prefer
