Things you recently bought or got

[Deleted User]

I've participated here before, but who says i can't double dip :^)

Recently I got a good handful of older games at the thrift store,
NFS:MW(PC), Battlefield Vietnam(PC), Counter Strike(xbox), Crimson Skies(xbox), Xiii(xbox), Namco Museum(xbox), Max Payne(PS2), Dead to Rights(gamecube), ATV Quad Power Racing 2(gamecube), Madagascar(gamecube), Battleship(Gameboy color), Tekken 3(ps1), Cars race-o-rama(ps3), Destiny 1(ps4)

sometimes i deliberately buy old shovelware because it's a fun novelty, don't @ me

as for hardware, the list is smaller, but not much less significant
A yeston RX 550, the one that's single slot and low profile.. and pink
A Gigabyte g1 gaming motherboard, that comes with an i5-4460
a 1tb crucial ssd
a 16gb kit of ram for my main pc, so i can max it out before i go ryzen
an extra 8gb stick of ram so i can have 16gb in my alt pc

Next month i'll get myself a sapphire pulse rx 580, literally just for the aesthetics and that "new graphics card unbox" feeling

These just came about 5 minutes ago. Hopefully Atelier game dialogue isn't changed in Europe. The right is a multilanguage Asian release of the Dusk trilogy (Japanese and English), it was about $150 CAD. Lulua was only about $30ish for the PAL copy. Couldn't find a US physical copy. Nelke was something like $40 CAD. So mostly cheaper than the eShop. Came in about 3 days, though I had to pay $40 for shipping and another $35 for duties.

I wish more games shipped with English translations. I know it's a port of older games, but if a game is digital only in the US I'd rather order the Japanese version and have English added through an update.

No it's a real Microsoft product and EB Games Canada was blowing them out so I traded in my (kinda) broken Xbox One VCR for it.

Even though I own the game three times (2x PC copies and a Switch copy)...I preordered the new Stardew Valley collectors edition >.>

Love the game, so does my wife, so we think it looks real fucking cool.

A heckin' 900 quid mattress (£800 after a voucher code). It was supposed to be the best one for back pain (I have, like, a normal amount of back pain, but my wife has like over the top crippling back pain, so hopefully this will help). Honestly so far it's amazing.

When it arrived it was smol

But after unpacking it soon became LORGE

Gadget wise, the last thing was probably the Thermal Grizzly kryonaut thermal paste I got for when I clean out my old PS4 Chonky Boi. It's been massively noisy ever since I bought it used, hopefully scraping out all the dust and re-pasting will help.

BRAND. NEW. HDD!

I didn't buy new HDDs for nearly 5 years, so I decided to get a new one for my server and let my OG HDD rest a bit.

Today the "Last and Highest" available Socket 1156 CPU arrived.

Intel Core i7 875K (together with an ASUS Mainboard,8 Gb RAM and a Soundblaster PCI Express Soundcard)



This is only the Test PC Case,the CPU is now working on this PC where I actually wrote this Post.

Why not change the Mainboard too ?
Haha....yes of course and my Windows 10 Digital License is gone AGAIN.. no,thanks.

I'm poor lol, I'm not a data hoarder or pirate too so 2TB is more than enough to me

Was about to buy this for switch but I could not stand the blurriness

Won an auction for a first gen iPad Mini for $45. I introduced babber to Kid Pix deluxe on my iMac G3 the other day, and ever since she's been obsessed with coloring on phones and any screen she can find and stuff, so decided to find a cheapo tablet that I don't really care if she breaks/fucks up for coloring and learning and such.

I don't notice it myself, seems fine to me. once you get past the original intro it's quite sharp
