And yes, he is (usually) always right, and he is (almost) the sexiest gamer out there (not counting me) ;)

Last night I received 40 Winks on the PlayStation One, which I did play a brief demo of when I was a kid on one of those demo-filled CDs, but I never considered getting the full packaged copy until very recently. Thus far I like it, though the camera controls I'm not too keen on, and I also like its atmospheric areas and gameplay I also find it very amusing how there's a preview quote boasting that Mario should move over from a Nintendo magazine on the PSX cover, even though the Nintendo 64 version of the game never ... got .... released............ whoops. Still, rather amusing when you think about it, though I wonder what the Nintendo 64-bit version would've been like if it hadn't been canned. ... I know, too early to speculate, so I'm gonna play it some more.

There might be a way to find out.

Adventures of Batman and Robin - This is the reason i had to go to the shop this past Saturday. I've been wanting this game for a while, and when i saw that Mike had posted a picture of it on FB amongst a bunch of games that had come in the store last week (including a CIB Bucky O'Hare!), "i knew i had to have it" (TM @TheGameChasers). A little pricey, but a good price for what this game usually goes for.

I always loved that game, It gives you a better feeling of "being Batman" than some other games that came before and after this one.

My latest retro purchase is a bootleg TMNT III. Exactly like the one I had as a kid. It replaced all "K" for "Z" and "M" for "W". So it says it was made by "ZONAWI", the nunchuck turtle is "WIZE". It was cheap, very nostalgic, worth it!.

I completely agree. Between the somewhat-varied gameplay between each level, the various gadgets that you can select, and just the overall charm of the game that makes it feel like you're playing the animated series, it might be my favorite Batman game right now (though there are quite a few contenders for that slot).

She-Ra is awesome. If you believe otherwise, you are clearly wrong.
Urban Champion is GLORIOUS.

You know, I just realized that so far in 2015 I bought three games for the PlayStation One, when I used to get them once a year years ago. First that one Ukiyotei-developed vintage 2D platformer with the admittedly embarrassing title given it that gameplay-wise it's not that bad (I'm not saying its name, you probably get the idea of what I'm referring to anyway), at least in my opinion anyway (it's no Skyblazer, but at least the walking pace is steady and acceptable unlike a certain movie licensed game Ukiyotei made years prior, for which its running function/animation took two to three seconds to become apparent to the point that gamers generally aren't aware you can do that, ergo bad design); then after many months I finally got my NTSC copy of Spyro the Dragon (great call, I might add); and recently 40 Winks which I'm currently playing. Maybe it's a good thing (as my NTSC PSX collection is rather small anyway; plus I mainly focus on collecting 16-bit games, so that's another factor). Before the year ends, I hope I can get at least two or three more PSX titles in my collection.

also got im kid dracula for nes and i got a another sealed ps1 memory card. its that island blue or whatever color its called lol.
i got this other sealed ps1 card because the other new one saves, but sometimes you have to take it out and put it back in in order for it to pick up the save data, and its an offical/new card. so heres hoping this other official/new card isnt defective. i dont wanna take any chances. every now and then the current one im using says "memory card defective". cant have that.

My latest purchase is something strange! Distortion! What's this? THE COLOSSEUM
And bought from a separate seller, the Jirachi disc to make it fully complete.

3 Sega Dreamcast Controllers + 3 VMU for £20. They do need a clean, but I can't complain about the bargain. Also bought "Pod 2" for Sega Dreamcast, £5. Decent racing game.

Also found "Tube Slider" for the GameCube. Only released in the US, and bought it for £12. Really happy I found it. It's a decent F-ZERO GX clone.

Also bought "Sabrina The Teenage Witch - A Twitch in Time!" for the PlayStation because I'm an idiot.

Gridatttack

The Super Mario Allstar version that includes Super mario world.

Even though I don't like the SMB3 and SMB1/TLL remakes, SMB2 and SMW make up for it.

New Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, a remake of Super Mario Bros 1 and The Lost Levels for NSMBDS.

I bought Panzer Dragoon Saga over the weekend for £299.

I don't regret a penny of it.

I'm just not telling the missus how much it cost.

You could've bought seven copies of Super Mario Maker with that money.
(I hope it works out well for those who were affected, though )
