HPB employee found a new NWC in the back before it was priced. HPB.com sold it for $40k on their website a few days later very quickly.

Audible had a sale that was $6/mo for 4 months, plus you get $20 credit. Audible sales are the only BF sales that feel way better than normal sales for what I consume now. Last year every single book was on sale and I bought like 75 cheap books. I picked up a couple Steam games, but it isn't like 2010 where I feel like a kid in a candy store and everything is 75% off.

Excuse me, this website is for Clinger Winger warriors who want to memorize stupid old video games

Whoaaaa, no way. I've booted up so many damn ROMs for 5 minutes. I've played a week like 30 different MMOs. That's my lifetime of content right there baby!

Automaton Lung, one of the last 3DS games. A decent 3D platform game where you just find all the collectibles in big chunky 3D levels. It's feels very DIY student project-y which is a vibe I've been digging lately.

If SMB2 was a real Mario game, the game in this thread's title would be Super Mario Bros. 4.

I'm only allowed to play games I've already played from this point on so I'm literally not missing anything.

I dunno what kind of non-newtonian physics SMK has, but I feel like the I'm drifting on the moon compared to other Mario Karts, or like I'm getting pulled outward in my drifts. It sure has a learning curve.

I grew up on F-Zero which probably shaped my preferences as a faster, twitchier game. SMK rewards drifts, jumps, and little shortcuts a lot more. It's kind of amazing how little they have in common considering they're both SNES mode 7 racers. On SNES, N64, and GC I always compare the Mario Kart to F-Zero and F-Zero comes out ahead. That's why they had to stop making them, they were outshining their own Mario games 8/10 still

Sorry for the worst vote on The Abyss, but I've only seen half of these and it made me vote and my other choices were like the 3 best action sci fi movies ever.

I eventually want to grade a bunch of my sealed games to get them in nice flashy boxes but most of the graded cases either take up too much room, have quality issues, and/or it's too expensive. I have a VGA CD that's the same height and barely thicker than a PS3 game. The other companies would double the volume of the game due to their bulky generic outer cases, I'm sure CGC/Wata Switch games are comically larger than they are raw. But getting a VGA game graded starts at $100/game Since I'm not selling stuff it's perpetually on the "Eh, I'll get to it later if things are better/cheaper" backburner. I have no issue buying graded stuff (besides the bulkiness of it). Sometimes deals come up on the graded auction sites because the market is so tiny. A 9.0 Popful Mail just sold for $300 with a single bid on Goldin, because who is the market for a decently nice graded CIB Popful Mail? Nobody.

On topic, Might & Magic III has a totally unnecessary character aging system. Some crystal(s?) in the last dungeon will age your party, probably without you realizing it until it's too late, eventually causing everyone to die of old age. Softlocked my first playthough of the game due to this.

I mostly remember killing animals, including ones previously thought to be extinct I'm an environmental monster too.

Man the whole series is a commentary on colonialism and I was too young to realize

Man, so the Tomb Raider series is about a American billionaire heiress stealing cultural artifacts from South America, Europe, and Africa for fun? What is she, the British Empire?

So wait, I haven't played Tomb Raider in like 25 years (jeez), but Lara's motivation in most of the early games is hunting down some powerful artifact. She found a hand that turns anything into gold halfway through her first adventure and... what she just keeps looking for some other artifact? You have to turn lead into gold for a puzzle even, so she knows it works. What powerful artifact is better than this Lara? The most powerful artifact of all is the US Dollar. This temple should be the end of the Tomb Raider series.

Hey guys what’s going on in this crazy thread..

I think a list of physical games where Nintendo was substantially involved in development would still be useful and cool. Probably easier to make

I halfheartedly tried to make something like this as a collecting goal list, but it gets confusing quickly and I didn't feel like researching the development credits of every single game Nintendo ever had their name put on. Rhythm Tengoku is developed by Nintendo SPD, but the music, which you'd call a critical part of the game, is credited to other companies. F1 Race on Game Boy was developed by R&D1, but it's a port of a HAL Laboratory Famicom game. You start trying to make this "truly Nintendo developed games" list and like every other list, it's full of subjective calls and exceptions and it will drive you mad.

Xexyz was the first NES game that came to mind for English criteria.

Yo, you guys are collecting cool data about a really important console and your questions are "What 5 character titles come to mind"

Phleo explaining how 1mm print shift variants are real and they can hurt you.

Maybe throw a trading card in there, put a big badge calling it a super collectible release, aw yeah baby we're in the 90s, the most collectible era of comics!

This is the craziest f'in thing Minnesota State Lottery is always the cartridge I bring up to prove that people can never have everything. And apparently here it might be. I can't imagine how many people are pestering you trying to buy it, lmao. Ahhh man, that's so cool. I cannot wait for that lock screen to be cracked.
