Good hauls there, Tappybot.  Don't be too hard on Garfield, it is insanely frustrating, but the Famicom just wouldn't be truly retro-80s without Garfield.


Thanks, Senseiman.

You're right, I shouldn't be so hard on it.  I'm all for Garfield, but.. eeer.. yeah those sprites are pretty bad XD .. His head changes size depending on which sprite is active.. It's....    YYYeeah. 
I was hoping it would be something simple like Popeye, or some other one screen arcade style game.   

I respect the 1 life challenge though.  It means I'm not finished with this game until I beat it.

You listen to Miley Cyrus? Don't tell me you listen to Justin Bieber too?

Sharp Sidekick LX 2009, I call it my Nintendo phone as Sharp and Nintendo had a contract together.

I paid $60 for it, it had been refurbished.

Nintendo Phone, how so?

Doesn't look anything like a Nintendo system.

Just as he stated, "Sharp and Nintendo had a contract together."  ;)  :pow:

Reading comprehension is so underrated...

Because my local Yamada Denki didn't have Little Big Planet 2, I just ordered the American Collector's Edition.  ;D


Enjoy your Gonzo Costume, Sir.


I will!  ;D
Fedex is really FAST! I just got my box from Hong Kong!

This is my last find for a while...a couple months worth

That Logitech controller looks even better than the PS3's official controller.

It's pretty nice, I have one and used to use it all the time.. Problem is it's wireless so you gotta keep changing batteries... I think I stopped using it because of that.

Here's what I got over the weekend.  Unfortunately this trip I didn't see any of the games jpx72 or satoshi_matrix suggested in my help thread  :-\ Hopefully next time.



Pikkon

Just these in the mail today.

Bonk and Yoshi.. Nice!   ... Er.. Yossy  XD   :yoshi:


Here's what I gathered today:


The Super Gameboy 2 was 10yen!  It was stickered for 80yen, but then it was discounted to 10yen at the register.. They're been trying to phase out their retro since the middle of last year I guess.. they're mostly cleaned out.


Tried out Space Shadow earlier (uses the light gun apparently) but I can't get it to respond at all even though press start is an option at the title.. Maybe it doesn't work with the AV Famicom...
