Took a trip this summer to Ohio to visit my mom and family, and unlike my dad( who traded in every GameCube and N64 game we had years ago to Gamestop ). She had kept and collected what she could over the years knowing that we still loved the games, and now that we are older and can't visit as often, she had me bring the games back to New York to be able to enjoy!

All I'm gonna say, because there's too much to say, is that I love her for everything she's done for us.

I've almost made the choice several times, but I can't give in to getting a 2DS over a 3DS, even if I'm going to rarely ever use the 3D, probably would just feel bad about losing the feature set.
I never hardly used it on my O3DS/N3DSXL also wanted a N2DSXL for a while and wanted in person when buying a used unit

Unfortunately, once again, a night hanging out with the peeps, and I decide to empty my wallet further despite it not being payday yet...

Not gonna defend the behavior, because I know it's a bad idea, but I keep doing it anyway :huh:

P.S. Milanos Dark Chocolate are bliss...

Been interested in playing Omikron the Nomad Soul since it came out, like 20 year ago. I saw it on GOG for $1.23 and thought it's cheap enough I'll get it.

From what I remember I've only ever played the demo that came on the demo disk that came with Tomb Raider 4 for PC. But what I did play I remember liking it, and if I don't it wasn't expensive at all

So perhaps a bit of a impulse buy, but I just got paid and was with a friend looking for retro stuff at a few thrift stores.

Was able to find a Wii with all the extensions for a flat $50 USD, and later picked up Rainbow Six 3 for a little over a dollar. The Wii works great and although I would've loved to get some nice Wii games as well, there wasn't anything appealing other than sports games and a few rhythm/singing games.

Downloaded that Monster Hunter Stories 2 demo on my Switch (it's alright, so far; though it's weird how I can't zoom the camera in, nor have I found a way to check the game Settings once I've loaded my save) two days ago, and also downloaded a Final Fantasy 1+2 Dawn of Souls (y'know, the GBA remake) ROM.
Also finished FF1 on that ROM, with a Fighter/Monk/Red Mage/Black Mage party, so I can scratch that JRPG off my 'should experience one day' list. FF2...nah; I know that its stat-grinding mechanics are tedious as hell, and apparently the story is apocalyptic, and I'm not a fan of depressing stuff, so nah, not gonna play it.

I remember a time when they were in the $20s, but with the retro game market being what it is, thought it was a good buy( though in hindsight a lot of impulse buying is just plain bad ).

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.
