Well, that means you get Poison instead of Sid too.

Didn't get to play much of it, but it was 'super' fun for what little I did play. I can't wait to play some more.
Might I ask how much? It's the Japanese version of Space Megaforce, which is crazy expensive right now.

It's one of the best SNES shmups.
I think I paid a little over $50 for it, including shipping. I got it in less than a week too (from Hong Kong).

I looked at Space Megaforce but it was a little too pricey. So I just went with the SFC version since it's the same game.

Only problem is now I have started a SFC cart collection and I need more!

wow I got super aleste last year for $13 back when haryashi was doing on of his back from Japan sales, I just picked it up since I heard it was pretty good had no idea it was rare

I got the PAL version of Super Aleste for £5 last year. I think it's just the US Space Megaforce that's expensive.

July
Inazuma Eleven DS - £5
Pokémon Black Version DS - £10
Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Reverie DS - £6
Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies DS - £8
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed Wii U - £7.85

Grandia II Dreamcast - £9.99
Vita 64GB Memory Card PSVita - £58.59
Total: 18 games, 2 accessories - £213.41

A pretty damn busy month this month. Expensive too, I really need to dial it back for August (although this is actually kind of my June paycheck spending and my July paycheck spending added together).

The first 4 DS games were all on clearance from Argos, a catalogue company here in the UK. Sonic racing was a sale from ShopTo, an online game store that I'm quite a fan of.

Ikaruga was an eBay purchase for Together Retro and the Game Boy player was another ebay purchase. Both prices include the postage costs.

All the games on the list from Resident Evil Revelations through to Solatorobo were a gift from ZeroAX for our secret santa thread.

The 3 Dreamcast games were reasonably priced at a local gameshop, so I picked them up.

Lastly, the Vita memory card was a last minute purchase from Play-Asia, and the single most expensive game purchase outside of the Vita itself this year.

Not much and nothing special in recently but I am happy to say through trades and selling off some of my collection I have paid £0 for any of it. Feels good.

No great bargins or anything, just some solid titles like Rockman 7, Ys III and Civ5. Most intrigued by Breakdown and Alpha Protocol. Mixed to bad reviews for both but I've heard some good or at least interesting things about them as well. Bulletstorm continues my secret FPS marathon.

I bought The Wolf Among Us (PS3) and plan to start that after I finish up REmake on Gamecube.

Yesterday I also bought The Last of Us Remastered (PS4). TLoU was my GOTG last gen, so I can't wait to play this. If my plan goes accordingly, it will be platinum trophy #50.
