Yesterday I Bought (a bad pun) for 3!

It's bloody expensive here and I can only buy it from Village Vanguard, which means going to one of the two other cities near nagano, so I count it as a present.

Those 3DS games were in my local GAME. Dirty scalper that I am, I bought those JRPGs as I thought they'd be worth loads of money. They're not. 

Still, Crash n' Burn looked all right, and Bust-A-Move for a quid wasn't a shabby charity shop pick-up at all.

Someone said GAME are semi getting rid of 3DS stuff, I guess that's what they mean.

Also I think I'd like done the same with those Etrian games (if I couldn't check on my phone) as ones worth £40 another £50 odd in the series.

I had no signal, and took a punt on them. They're not worth much more than what I paid for them. Seeing as there was no easy profit, I just took them back for a refund in the end. Interestingly, the GAME I took those four games back to had no 3DS stuff on their shelves at all.

No photo, but I picked up two decent-quality and decent condition PSone games for £1.99 each in Oxfam: Worms Armageddon and The Need for Speed II.

You'll have to give Federation force a go and let us know your thoughts.

I had it before! It was shite!

The scalper becomes the scalped!

Yesterday


Also, a Solid Snake amiibo which came today.

I got Zelda in an actual GAME as I couldn't find the limited edition upon a site in stock when this was announced.

Whilst in there I went to see what 3DS games they had as I would be tempted by the likes of what Cappa picked up but they only had about 10 games all brand new and a little insert saying about buying a 2DS tucked away in the same section as PS3, 360 and VITA.

Strangely the CEX had loads of 3DS games and even the weird indie store that sells bb guns & bongs had quite a few even Persona Q which I did almost pick up but £45 is a lot for a 3DS game.

What a shite photo. Anyway, the Mega Drive Mini was pre-ordered about a million years ago, and it arrived on launch day. Yooka-Laylee arrived four days before it's actual launch day - thanks Game Collection! 

Those two Wii U games were in my local GAME, where all that console's games are 50% off the marked price. That random copy of New Super Mario Bros was just 98p!

Let us know if Yooka-Laylee is as good as the reviews have made it out to be.

Shadow of Memories and Another Code: R are excellent buys, Mas. Kinda wish there was a new Another Code on consoles.

I picked up Gravity Rush Remastered and King of Fighters XIV. Caught my eye in the PS store and were reduced.

Thanks gJones, I did see after a Xbox version of SoM but is rather expensive and a PSP version.

Gravity Rush is such a underrated series.

Double Post as I bought some things, well I traded in Astral Chain sorry Drunka it just wasn't clicking with me that I thought I'd cash in now and Concrete Genie because I finished it

No need to apologise,I knew it wouldn't be for you, it's a difficult game.

Surprised the Souls lot haven't enjoyed it more then

Nah on a serious note I played upto File 5, just found it a tad boring I think I was going in with the thoughts of its a Platinum game so it be all action all the time, sure Nier Automata isn't but the story and I guess the Square Enix side of things mean it works.

I've heard pretty mixed things all over the place. I loved it, but it definitely wasn't for everyone.

I may pick it up again if I see cheap but you can see how much I got for it based on all the stuff I picked up.

This 2 LP The Messenger vinyl collection arrived on Monday.

Spoiler:

I also already have my eye on 3 more collections, one for the Bloodborne original soundtrack & another for the farewell chapter of Celeste which are due out toward the end of the month. Then the third being Sayonara Wild Hearts which can be pre ordered now but isn't actually out until March 2020.

Ooh. People know my views on The Messenger, but that looks nice, and those other two you suggest would be great to listen to. Are there digital vinyl players doing the rounds these days, following the recent vinyl resurgence?

Absolutely!

2 is one of my favourite games on PS4

I'm trying to work out digital vinyl player

The art on the inside sleeve is nice as well & the vinyl themselves are a nice colour, apart from the obvious the art is one of the reasons I wanted to start a collection. The Celeste vinyl for example is pressed on clear vinyl which just sounds really cool.

And yeah I'm pretty sure there are all sorts of digital vinyl players which is something I'll need to look into soon to replace what I'm currently using.


EDIT:

Yesterday I bought yet another video game vinyl.   (The Celeste one should arrive next week too)

Spoiler:

Good Nintendo day yesterday I got the Chrom amiibo from SMASH, Luigi's Mansion 3 and the GamesRadar Nintendo catalogue.

That Gamesradar mag turned up at my parents' house adressed to me. They're gonna send it over next time they send me mail.

I’ve got it too, natch. Is it actually worth reading? I flicked open at a random page, saw it was an advertorial, and binned it.
