Secret Santa

My Secret Santa delivered. Copies of DW, Retrozone and RetroUSB sleeves, a poem for the collection, and a portrait of me by @CasualCart!

I've been updating the unorthodox Dragon Warrior website again, so it's just a matter a time before I get the transcribed poem up over there. The real question is, did they all know I did a photo shoot last year with me sitting on a throne made of carts? I didn't think I'd made those public, yet. Hrm...

Glad you liked your gifts! On your website http://theunorthodoxdragonwarriorcollection.com/ you posted a pic back on Oct 12, 2017 which is where the idea came from. 😛

Also, thank you to @SNESNESCUBE64 for putting in the work as Santa this year! Special shout out to Bunny and @mog for their contribution! Also, it goes without saying, thanks to @CasualCart for being easy to work with and creating some great art as usual. 🙂 

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and let's not forget, Happy Festivus everyone! 😛

My secret Santa @JordyRamone donated $50 to Extra Life for my gift! As you all know I'm more than happy to see donations to the kids, so I'm plenty good with that. Thanks bud! 

Ain't nothing more in the holiday spirit than donating to a good cause!

Happy you enjoyed the Yoshi plush @SNESNESCUBE64 who knew I was giving a present to Secret Santa himself!! Merry Christmas!

I am still not sure who my secret santa is, but they sent me two awesome GameCube games I needed for my collection! Whoever you are - thank you very much!! 😁

It took me a solid 30 seconds of staring at the cover to that Yu-Gi-Oh game on the right to be able to read the full title, haha. I dunno if it's just me, but that font is borderline unreadable for me 😆

Just you lol. 

I think it's Falsebound in particular that was hard for me to read. Any time I tried to read the whole thing, I would just be able to read "The Falseb___ Kingdom, haha. Falsebound isn't exactly a word that's a frequent part of my vocabulary, so it took me a second to get that one.

Very cool and some fun games. The big question is did Yu-Gi-Oh come with the cards? I have never seen them in a copy.

No, but considering the prices of Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh! cards these days due to a huge surge in people collecting them (mainly due to YouTubers like the Paul brothers) I would be shocked if they were, nor do I plan to pick them up any time soon. Alas, my GameCube collection will, for at least a decent portion if time, not be 100% complete.

My SS was anonymous. But I'm very happy with the dope individually-wrapped gifts. Some Genesis games for my new Nomad, and some Game Gear goodness, just what I asked for. Plus he somehow hunted down the original artwork of my profile pic!! I love this thing. Thanks, whoever you are!!

Yeah, I was about to say, there's something really funny about Splain saying his SS was anonymous, with their SS's username literally being written on the front of the box, hahaha

Anyone who was on Discord when the package arrived, knows that I totally blabbed who my SS was, so I'm trying to overcompensate so I won't be banned next year 👍🏻

I'm not sure who my SS was, but they got me a very nice quality Christmas themed repro.  Pretty sweet two toned cart shell 🙂

 

Thank you, stranger!

Oh wow, that's probably one of the coolest SNES carts I've ever seen! Really love that two-tone look.

David Bowie? 

Anyway, I got an NES game and a 3ds game I asked for as well as two more surprise 3ds games. Looking forward to playing them! Thanks again whoever you are.

Unfortunately, the package I sent is delayed so my giftee will have to wait a couple more days.

Good to see Ducktales among those games, classic for sure.

I was your secret Santa @KokiriChild, glad you're happy with the games. I opened my gifts from @rdrunner and I'm very happy with them. I asked for Gameboy games and he delivered, a couple games with a nice handwritten note explaining why he recommended them and giving some tips. It was also neat getting presents from a celebrity! 😁
