Good Me - Don't do it, you already have Celeste & Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty pre-ordered from LRG, Ultracore & Vasara pre-ordered from Strictly Limited Games, Guacamalee Collection pre-ordered from Video Game Plus and Links Awakening Collectors Edition pre-ordered from Amazon. Your wallet, and backlog, can't take it anymore. You need to stop! Evil Me - Yeah, but one more won't hurt. Plus it does look very good and, the sucker punch, it does comes highly regarded by Nintendo Life themselves. Pleasssseee!!! Good Me - Arrgghh, you raise very good points godammit. (Throws in the towel and wallet) I. Am. Weak. You. Win. Victory Evil Me. Finish him!

Re: The Sega Mega Drive Turns 30 Today

I loved my Mega Drive. I remember the day I bought it like it was yesterday. The year was 1991. I saved up my paper-round money for weeks; I was on £20 a week for 4 rounds. The day finally came - I had £150 of my had earned at the ready. Off to Woolworths me and my mate went. I was buying the bundle that came with 2 controllers (remember those days), Sonic the Hedgehog, Mega Games 1 (World Cup Italia 90, Columns & Super Hang-on) and a carry case. By fortune, my mate had a £5 off voucher for Woolworths. So with my newly purchased Mega Drive in hand, we first called off at MaccyD's where I treat us both to an extra value meal with the remaining £5 I now had. Meal consumed, it was straight back to my house where hours were then lost to 2 player World Cup Italia 90 matches. With the arrival of my Mega Drive, it saddens me now to admit that my much loved NES became a disregarded casualty that had a brief resurgence when I got Micro Machines for Christmas of that year. My Mega Drive eventually gave up the ghost in 2003 where unceremoniously it was off-loaded at the nearest house-hold recycling centre. May it RIP! Many, many good times were certainly had with an awesome piece of hardware. Off note, my personal top 5 Mega Drive games (in no particular order) would be: Sonic 2, Dynamite Heddy, Red Zone, Flashback and Toejam & Earl (loved it in 2 player, although fall-outs would always ensue due to life stealing).

Re: Best Buy Will Soon Stock Select Limited Run Games Physical Switch Releases

@Bunkerneath Have you previously bought from Limited Run and had to pay an import tax? I only ask as I live in the UK and have Dust pre-ordered. Considering their crazy expensive shipping costs to the UK, and the fact that orders once placed are deemed final by them, I am weary that I will end up having to pay the dreaded import tax too. I've had my fingers burnt before in regard to import tax after ordering a Zelda Nedoroid figure direct from the Good Smile Company.
