Wow.  Those are super cool.  Never seen or heard these mentioned by anyone before.

Plain tap water.

Some screens have finally leaked of the new Gamestop store concepts that are being demoed in Oklahoma with promising results.  I'd expect to see more Gamestop sales as they blow out old inventory, close under performing stores and slowly transition to this concept.

Time will tell about the turnaround, but I like them going towards the "Apple Store" concept for games instead of spinning off into other electronics like they tried with phones. 

I was shocked when my local Gamestop put back up the "Buying used phones banner" last week.  I thought they had moved past that.

did you play any of the others?  Champions, bgda2?  I think the OG is still the best but the others are worth playing.

I have not!  I really need to check them out.

Probably Coin Critters on Windows '95.

My Dad and I played Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance together years ago.  I bought both Champions Return to Arms and Dark Alliance 2 and playing Champions now.  It IS addictive.

Some of my fondest video game memories are playing Baldur's Gate years ago!  Been tempted to dive back in.

I'll have to remember to post some stuff later.  Picked up a couple random autographs last month, Tony Hawk and Jim Davis.

Also picked up some production used documents from The Office TV show.

Is your boss hiring? 

Prayers heading your way. You've got this!

Physical editions for Xbox One and PS4 but no Switch? 

Yep as far as I know.  It's a bummer.

How the figure survived in such good condition is amazing.  Seems like the type of thing that falls off a desk, cracks, gets lost, gets accidentally thrown away.  Crazy that it survived! 

Glad to hear so many people have putting so many hours into it.  My one worry was that after a few weeks the repetitive nature may get stale.  It's my new go to for an hour or so before bed!

Anyone playing some Stardew Valley recently?

I originally bought it for Xbox and couldn't get into it.  Picked it up for Switch a week ago and am in love.  For me, it is the perfect type of game to go along with the Switch.  Super relaxing and enjoyable.  Haven't dabbled in any of the multiplayer aspects, but am definitely intrigued.  This is my first farming type game to really get into.  It's definitely making me think I need to circle back to Harvest Moon. 

I understand where you're coming from.  I played through about 3/4 of the game and got bored with it and traded it in.  That's not to say I didn't very much enjoy the first 1/2 or so.  Beautiful game and I'm glad I picked it up, but was also very glad when I made the conscious decision to move on to play something else!

Just finished up The Cthulhu Casebooks - Sherlock Holmes and the Shadwell Shadows.

Currently reading A Feast for Crows (Game of Thrones).

Currently listening to Terminus, by Peter Clines.  If you haven't listened to or read any of Peter Clines works I HIGHLY recommend him for those who like Sci-Fi/fantasy.

This is super impressive work.  Really interesting stuff seeing what small portions of video game history actually made it onto a stamp.  With that said I hope to never buy one myself! 

That Starfox pencil work is insane!

Very cool. The missing "U" just adds to the awesomeness in my opinion.

Love this stuff!  Wish every single one of these posts were their own thread.

Welcome! Nice avatar!

Love me some Secret of Evermore!

I only lurked on NA, but I plan to change that here!  As far as video games go I primarily collect for the NES.
