Yeah man, I'm big into the collecting side of things. I'm going to be posting a decently big update to my collection thread in a week or two since I'm about to move all of my jewel case and longbox games to DVD cases and all of my handheld games (plus TurboGrafx-16) to DS cases with artwork printouts, so that will change the dynamic of my shelving a lot.Jagosaurus wrote:@ Elkin, danggggg son. I need to look @ your gameroom thread. This year, I trimmed down my collection to 319 games + 3 Flash carts/EverDrives by my last count (down almost exactly 33% from 475 before). You almost passed my total, this year!

Re: Games Acquired 2016
EOM JULY 2016!
Okay, done for the month. Time for some 1080i PS2 games! Although I'm having trouble confirming this, I believe they run at 640 × 1080 interlaced (versus true 1920 x 1080). Still a cool novelty & looking forward to testing them. With these 2, I own 50% of the PS2 HD library
MTD:
PS2 (CIB unless noted)
Mace Griffin Bounty Hunter (replacement disc for CIB copy)
Gran Tourismo 4 - (new addition)
Tourist Trophy - (new addition)
2016 Tracking $ In/Out - Net Spent:
YTD: +$310.72 (in the positive)
Per Month Avg: +$44.39 (in the positive)
This includes all shipping, fees, & sales tax incurred
2016 Tracking Quantity In/Out:
YTD Sold: 151 games, 1 large box set game, 1 system
YTD Acquired: 3 flash carts/EverDrives, 4 games

Re: Games Acquired 2016
@Elkin, that'll definitely look nice. Ive been eyeing a PC-Engine and an EverDrive lately :/ looks like ED will play JPN & US TG16 titles regardless of the system (as the NES N8 will)
@Lauren, Hate to see brick & mortar stores closing. That store seemed really popular. Heard about it several podcast & youtube channels. I can imagine real estate being very expensive in the area. Assuming it is business related versus an owner getting out?
Any one have experience with PS2 1080i titles I mentioned above?

Re: Games Acquired 2016
Yeah I normally would of waited for a sale as well, but I backed the kickstarter so that's just part of my pledge ha. I'll also be getting Vita copies when those come outBoneSnapDeez wrote:Muv-Luv (lol @ the name) looks neat but just like Clannad I'm gonna wait for a sale.
Yeah I'm sad that they had to close. Luckily, it wasn't actually business related, but I think the building owner sold the property so everyone has to move out. I think they're tearing the place down (which I guess makes sense since it's pretty rickety in places). I did get to speak to the person who ran that particular Pink Gorilla store, and he said business was good there so they'll probably open up a new Bellevue location once an opportunity pops up. So at least the closing isn't all doom and gloom, but I'm still going to miss going there.Jagosaurus wrote: @Lauren, Hate to see brick & mortar stores closing. That store seemed really popular.

@Elken Man, you always think of something funny to say
Also I'm a bit curious on what you think about Dead or Alive Xtreme 3. I've played it but it's a bit confusing since you can't give gifts to your chosen waifu?? Maybe I just completely misunderstood something so I'll have to give it another chance, but man that frustrated me. (that and I completely suck at poker apparently)

Re: Games Acquired 2016
I just picked up an old EGM with a great Toon Link, Wind Waker, cover and poster and it had a cheat on how to make all the girls topless in the DOA volleyball game. Seems timely now.ElkinFencer10 wrote:I aim to please.
