drxandy | 3,225 Posted April 7, 2023 Author Share Posted April 7, 2023 Happy Friday! Got a copy of forza horizon 3 ultimate edition! Started playing #3, then the new rally update came out last week? for #5 so I jumped back and have almost completed it, just have to do the racing side of things but heck ya. I would love to get the dlc for 3 but it's been delisted so chances are pretty slim that I'll get a sealed copy to open for an unused dlc card but what can ya do coming in late to a series. Mandy snagged Grim grimoire once more collectors edition, came in from NIS The art is super nice! Thrift gets: Heck ya been waiting to get Alice! Not too shabby for $2.50. Local gamestore had a pal copy of the halo 4 steelbook for cheap. Also $1 PSP charger missing cord but I have a replacement wheee. Have a great week y'all, happy Easter Sunday! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drxandy | 3,225 Posted April 14, 2023 Author Share Posted April 14, 2023 Friday! Robocop popped up at the local gamestore, another one off the list The local also had a super cheap 360 copy of doom 3 bfg with poster 360 150w power supply from the thrift for 1$!, It's the correct model for that jasper v2 i fixed up weeks ago. Patience is a virtue I guess. Finishin up with splinter and rattlor for a buck each (heck ya) my Nintendo rewards Mandy ordered (Pokemon hi-lighters and notebook), and a copy of the sims 4 disney world/land star wars journey to batuu. It's one I probably won't play but really like the idea of, I proposed to Mandy at the one in Florida so I thought it was neat to see the tie in and I'm a sentimental kinda guy. Have a great week yalllllll 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drxandy | 3,225 Posted April 21, 2023 Author Share Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) Happy Friday! Very stoked to find an nes classic mini at the thrift for $5! Originally I was too excited to see the tag when I got it from the shelf, but it was the unit with 2 controllers taped to the top and no power supply so maybe they thought it was the knockoff one? Idk but bonus controller and then went to the cords section and found a Kindle charger that worked perfectly for power.. also a nice surprise - came back a few days later and they had the official cord, sweeeeet. Lil old gremlin(mogwai), a knuckles plush from '18, Wii monster component cables for a buck, spidermans and Metallica guitar hero for tree fiddy. MyNintendo big Metroid pin and Kirby bag came in the mail, along with some more AC cards that were mostly a bust for me this round. I got 6 cards out of the 24, oof. That's all for this week, enjoy this giant Thomas someone made Edited April 21, 2023 by drxandy 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was cool to see the people waiting for the store too, for sure! I've been watching her play and the opening was pretty cool. I was really into DDR way back when and have a soft spot for games with weird peripherals (which rhythm and dance games always do haha) I have a few other just dance games on Wii but haven't played much of the series, honestly only really played at friends and didn't own any until recently, I'll haveta check the 2015 one out.

On to the zelding Snagged the pro controller from Walmart, had to drive back to my hometown to find in stock and was super stoked they actually did. Mandy snapped up the collectors edition, thanks spacepup for the heads up of when it came instock on Amazon. Back when we got the switch on launch I declared if a Zelda edition system ever came out I would have to buy it and i hadta stick to that. The green and gold, the triforce design matching with new 3ds xl, hoooo boyyy so purty. Finishing up with: Lil acrylic Xbox display from eBay (had to sneak something Xbox in lel) and the Splatoon x Zelda keychains from MyNintendo Whew, right now we are on the way now to the motor city comicon to see Charles Martinet so next week expect a Mario autograph 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaMan52 | 2,445 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) Love Spyro: Reignited Trilogy. I pre-ordered the Switch version in 2019 and remember it came with a poster. (I think I posted these pics on NintendoAge in 2019) A little unfortunate that it requires a download to get all of the levels in each game (at least in the Switch version; I've read that physical copies of other versions at least include the full first Spyro game), but still a good collection.

drxandy | 3,225 Posted June 23, 2023 Author Share Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) Happy Friday! Mandy picked up the new final fantasy from best buy and got a steelbook woo I went camping this week and didn't hit the thrifts much, but did get some cool shoes off eBay. First time with their authentication process, if you're selling they pay for shipping the shoes to them for verification then slap a lil nfc tag on it with the details and send it off to the buyer, pretty cool. On to the shoes, N64 themed Nike air max 97s!! These released in September 2019, I really dig the colorway but the little details are so cooooool Comes with 5 pairs of laces for your choice, the air max esrb in the heel is so neat. Same with the power / reset on the tongues, super nice little touches. That's it for this weeeeeek, see ya next Friday!

Happy belated birthday! Thrift in my area got a new manager who I noticed last time I was in. He eagerly asked me what I was there for (most employees know me) and I said my usual video games, etc and he proudly took me to the glass case where I saw a similarly priced Wii console and games marked above ebay: $30 Wii Sports, $26 kirby Epic Yarn, etc. He let me know he priced them himself. He was disappointed/confused that I didn't buy anything but I'm bummed that one more hunting spot in my area is likely no good. Aucks this seems to be getting more and more common in our area Edited July 6, 2023 by LutherDestroysTheGond 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
