  1. My childhood copy of super metroid. This was the game that gave me my love for gaming. Still after 25 years it's my favorite game
  2. Still 1100 standard edition available. Sold out of the special editions
  3. I ordered the special edition. I'll drop an extra 5 dollars for a slip cover. 14 dollars U.S. to ship to Canada is a bit rough
  4. I normally don't collect older toys but I couldn't pass them up for that price. When I was a kid, I had a friend that had a bunch of transformers and I was always jealous of it. It was Go Bot Grungy The other transformer was metroplex. I must have never taken a picture of it. I'll have to do that and I'll post it later
  5. I decided to stop at a few garage sales while on my drive back home. I'm glad I did. First off I got this gamecube and n64 for 60. Then at another sale I picked up two boxed transformers from the 80s and a boxed go bot. Each was 12 dollars
  6. The website just got updated with a release date. The wii u version is going on sale August 20th
  7. How is Steins Gate? I've been really curious about it. I started the anime but didn' get past the second episode
  8. Ps2 - The Dark Alliance Baldurs Gate games are some of my favorites. Champions of Norrath is basically the same game. They are Diablo style games but are some all time favorites
  9. It's funny that you say pre 2010 is retro. I bought my personal computer when I moved out in 2008. Still works like a charm
  10. Nes - Startropics. I've made it up to the UFO part of the game. Must be getting close to the end. Snes - Brainlord. Just started it out. Okay so far Switch - Bendy and the Ink Machine. I'm up to chapter three. I really don't do well with the whole horror genre and this game has made me scream out loud more than once. I'm such a wimp with jump scares lol. I really enjoy the atmosphere so far. There hasn't been too much of gameplay yet though. Mostly just walking around and getting startled.
  11. Think it's awesome. I'm thinking I'll get two. One to collect and one to build
  12. Any game that was "mine" growing up I held on to. I'd say I actively starting hunting and collecting games in 2007
  13. Nes - Super Mario Bros 1 2 & 3 The first video games I ever played were the Mario Bros. trilogy. My grandparents had an NES in their second living room that they built. I would never mind going over there for a visit bucause my brother and I were able to play these awesome video games. They had a fairly nice stack of games. 25 years after playing them at my grandparents house, I'm still the owner of them. The Super Nintendo - Super Metroid My parents bought the kids a Super Nintendo for Christmas one year. It was the bundle that came with Super Mario World and Super Mario All Stars. I think that playing the remakes of the Mario Bros trilogy on the Super Nintendo was the first time we were able to make it through the whole game. The save feature was a blessing. We then got the Donkey Kong Games. I remember in DKC3 that my brothers and I could never make it to the first save point in the Ice World. We tried for days but could never do it so my dad stayed up all night long and learned how to play the game so that he could make it to the save point for us. I still remember him showing us in the morning. The Super Nintendo never really took off for me until I was gifted Super Metroid for my birthday. I can't remember what year it was but I do remember receiving the game and the Nintendo Players guide. I played that game for the next summer. I beat it multiple times trying to go faster, getting 100 % of items, and even cleared ever single tile. It was the game that drew my love for video games and for playing them quickly. I've completed no other game more times than Super Metroid. Still the most influential game for me. My younger brother has the games from my youth. The only two I wouldn't give him were Super Metroid and Zelda a Link to the Past. N64 - Zelda Ocarina of Time After getting an N64, I still mostly played the Super Nintendo. I would play the multi-player games mostly. 007, Mario Kart and Diddy Kong Racing were the main ones I would play. The only game I truly spent any time with was Ocarina of Time. I always wanted Majoras Mask but never did until just recently. I have yet to start it PS2 - Baldurs Gate Dark Alliance and Xenosaga I don't recall where our PS2 came from. I think my older brother brought it home one day. My uncle owned a pawn shop, so each time we would come visit the store he would let us take a game home to keep. My brothers choose, Baldurs Gate and Downhill Domination. I choose Xenosaga III. I picked that game because I had just recently played through Final Fantasy X and thought this would be the game closest to it. I can understand how some people would be turned off by the hour long cutscenes but I absolutely loved it. My brother and I played through Baldurs Gate countless times. It is still the game we go to and play if he is spending the night over at my place for any reason Wii - Zelda Twilight Princess This game is special to me because I've played through every minute of it with my niece. She was always interested in my small Zelda collection so we started playing Twilight Princess together. At first she would just hold the nunchuck while I would hold the remote. It made the beginning of the game much harder than it was intended to be. Eight years later and we just finished the game. It's been a blast the whole time and to see how shes grown from the first time playing together Chess My adult life has consisted of playing the video games of my youth or playing chess online. A co-worker got me interested in chess and I've been hooked since. In just over a year I've played 1500 games and rated 1200 in blitz online. Chess is everything I could want in a game.
  14. I played through Pocky and Rocky with my brother for my birthday. We've played that game together at least once a year for the last decade.
  15. I'm so excited for this. I've been wanting a new pokemon snap for years
  16. https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/new-pokemon-snap-switch/ Anybody else as pumped for this as I am?
  17. I've finished off the last two games in Super Mario All Stars. I'm still not really a fan of Mario Bros 2. I remember it always being my older brothers favorite when we were growing up but it always felt too different for me to fully enjoy.
  18. I beat super mario bros 1 and super mario bros 3 of super mario bros all stars. I wont have time soon to complete the other two games. If anyone else wants to complete them please go right ahead. If not, I can get them in another couple weeks maybe.
  19. Imperium is beat! I've included some boss pictures throughout the game. Most of the game is knowing which gun to use at what time. I play chicken for most of the boss fights and use the third weapon which always shoots in the opposite way your moving. It's slow for the fight but helps me to stay alive. The lazer is my least use gun. You would think it would be the strongest but I've found it to be the weakest.
  20. Sparkster completed on hard difficulty to get the final boss
  21. After I beat Chessmaster I played through one loop of Gradius III
