I actually walked by it 2-3 times before realizing what it was exactly because it had the box as well, my brain mentally looked at the box and assumed it was another random "new" third party controller or something.

Normally I'm pretty quick to notice the accessories they have out in the baggies and dig through them looking for something that has been mispriced.  It's not often, but I've lucked out a number of times on stuff.  Only thing that sucks with the current coupon (good through Sept 28) is it only works for items $25 or under.

Mind you there isn't a "bad" album per say(we care a lot is the low one, but you could see the direction), this is just how'd I'd listen to them in order I suppose.

Being the Mario Bros. fan that I am I had to DL the first ever release of the original arcade game on Switch.

I also DL'd the sequel to my favorite 3DS game ever Steamworld Dig. It looks even better undocked surprisingly!

Crap, you are saying I should check out Steamworld Dig, yet another game I never heard of.

I don't really follow the 3DS library, but since I have a 3DS (the kids), I should start playing the damn thing a bit more.

I can't tell you how many times I've played through Dig 1. It holds my attention more than any other game in the system's library. Even the new Metroid and Metroid is my favorite series ever!

And more to my work wardrobe. But it need to get the work pants hemmed and tapered.

DAMN THAT FANCY THEAD.  also Recca/Rekka for NES.  neat pickup.  The summer carnival series is super interesting to me. I'd be interested in your impressions of it.

Thank you. Buying clothing is EXPENSIVE. However, it's time I retire the majority of my work clothing as it they where developing holes from being 5-7 years old. So I took the opurtunity to buy something more reflective of where I am in y career. No longer a broke college student or even a state employee.

Plus I was getting tired of clients saying "who are you to tell me _____ your are just a counselor it's not like you are a doctor or something."

Bitch I am a a GS12 respect my authority. Lol.

As for eh famicom games. I probably won't get play time until the tail end of this month. As my wife is expecting our second borne Oct 25th. Baby girl time. #scared

Gimmick is my #1 favorite soundtrack on the NES, though I've only heard the music on a non-Japanese system. Play your fami cart in a real Famicom for a wee bit of epicness.

Thank you. I recently maned up and spoke with a co-worker who is a retired E-9 Army. I told him Dr. Mitchell I want to improve my professional look.

Lol and what was his response?

Great we can get you from looking like a E-5 and more like a E-7 how much you willing to spend? 

Then it was all about "controlling the narrative", and researching what is my style.

It was determined "quirky" is my style.

I think the whole E-5 thing was just his way of reminding me of my rank when I got out. Mind you I didn't do no 26 years like he did. I just did my 8 and called it.

They where no where near the cost of CIB copies. They are both loose and a little dingy looking. But since I plan to use them they won't need to be the prettiest on the shelf.

Granted some games just seem to inflate and never go down.

It's here!! My copy of Surgical Strike for the Sega CD 32X has finally arrived after a long trip from Brazil. A custom reproduction by VGDB Brazil, this comes with a glossy hard box to hold everything, a pressed CD of the 32X version of the game (which was only released in Brazil), plus instruction manual, poster and an info/history card.
Except for a tear in the top of the box which was covered up by a sticker, production quality looks great. The game ISO was also released by the person who made these repros, but I've been waiting for the full release to try it out and compare video quality against the regular SegaCD one.

Basically though you just send the cash to the guy and he ships it out.  I emailed in advance first since I had questions though.

A third party seller on Amazon was selling copies of Runbow for Wii U for $10.64 ($6.65 + $3.99 shipping) so I ordered a copy since I'd been wondering about this one and never noticed it so cheap before.

Well I didn't buy it.

But I just won a giveaway during sideshow's live stream today.
