Got a Commodore 64 to 128 power supply adapter.

Worked first try, so now I confirm my Commodore 128 works perfectly, save for 2 keyboard keys that are very optional (Numpad 8 and F3).

I got a nice Shogi set for learning the game! It's really surprising just how few sets have piece movements on the actual pieces. All I could find were this and a Czech set, though the Czech set seems to be sold out everywhere.

Well, bought a triple monitor stand which came in yesterday, to mount my 10 year old Hannspree HF225 monitor. Being a TFT panel, the viewing angle was ass, and after about 30 minutes of using it, the backlight shit the bed. A power cycle fixed it, but something's wrong there. Disassembled, didn't see any capacitors or components otherwise with even a hint of failing, and didn't feel like testing every piece.

Went out to Microcenter and bought an AOC 24B2XH to replace the monitor. Nicer, much better viewing angle, bigger, LED, IPS, higher refresh rate, and cheap, only $109.

Ordered dog food from amazon.

Bought a pair of KZ ZSN Pro X earbuds. Although I do own a decent pair of wireless Bluetooth earbuds I wanted a nice pair of wired ones.
Also bought a couple of gba repros. I dont like reproduction games in general but I'm not apposed to them.

I think the only gba repro I own is of Mother 3 in English.

Got a New 3DS Regular about a week ago. Found a pretty good deal second hand. $99 AUD. They sell for like $180 - $250 AUD here. It's second hand but in really good condition. Already own a New XL, I got in 2015, and I'm not getting rid of that, I just wanted one of the normal. Hardly played it but I like the look of it a lot.

I'd love to make a follow-up post about how my childhood dream arrived in the mail and I finally own Sonic The Hedgehog's shoes. But as with all online ordering it went wrong and they sent me the wrong thing. Emailed them, tried them on Facebook, tried every possible line of communication to arrange a return/exchange, not a peep. So it looks like what I actually bought was all the ripping excitement of disputing the charges through my bank to get a refund and bitter disappointment that after 30 years I still don't have these bloody shoes.

On the plus side my guardian angel saw that I was one bad look away from becoming a supervillain, and so the 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim game I've been trying to track down for ages mysteriously got added to the PSN January Sales for almost to the penny what I could afford to spare. So at least someone up there has my back. Just not my shoes, I guess.

So I was at dollarama and I sometimes see games their and they had Starling for the Switch so I bought it for my nephews. It was only $4 for the starter pack. I get home and some asshole had taken the game out of the box. So I got a nice model of the arwing instead.
