Wow that is nice :O. If I still played those much I would probably get it. Can Counter Strike still be played online?

[Snektron]

Online as in web browser or online as in servers?
But i think servers for most valve games are decentralised and people can set private serverd up too, so there will probably always be a few enthousiast having a server

[Dream of Omnimaga]

As in servers. And I see. I thought it might have been official servers like Starcraft and Command & Conquer. At one point, Westwood Studios closed so all C&C games became unplayable online.

I just got Halo 5 for $37.50 and Yoshi Wooly World (much better than Kirby Epic Yarn) for $35. Every game and accessories were 50% off at Archambault and consoles were 30% off

The only downside is that all video game sales are final. I also lacked the money for a New Nintendo 3DS XL (they still had one left)

[Araidia]

I got Smash Bros 4 mid November(I think) and I downloaded Fire Emblem Awakening on the eShop(and some other indie games).
The New 3ds is totally worth it. It runs faster, has more buttons and the 3D is much more forgiving. I would recommend getting the XL so you don't have to have the screen right on your face.

I almost did get SSB4 earlier, but the store only had the 3DS version, and I prefered to wait until I get the money to get the Wii U version. I also saw Etrian Odyssey 2 but I passed on it since it seemed more like a tactical game. As for the New 3DS I might eventually get it. My only gripe is that there is only 1 game for it (Xenoblade Chronicles), but I might eventually try to trade in my 3DS to get the new one, since it's backwards compatible with old games.

Another game I saw was Star Wars Battlefront, but with Halo 5 and Yoshi I didn't buy it. If I didn't find those two games, I would probably have gone with Star Wars Battlefront, because at $40 it's a good deal.

On a side note, what I like about the Wii U gamepad is that I don't need to be in front of the TV to play the console. I can sit in front of the computer or lie in the bed with it, just as long as I'm not too far from the console. It doesn't work with every game because some requires using both the TV and the gamepad, but for games like Mario Maker it's very effective.

Look at what I found at EB Games (Gamestop) today :

-Kirby: Return to Dream Land (Wii) 
-Kirby Collection (Wii, but it doesn't have the cardboard box). Since I only have two of the games on it (Kirby Adventure and Kirby Superstar) it's a nice addition to my library 
-Kid Icarus Uprising (3DS)

I wanted Bayonetta 2 at first, but I just kept running into those gems so I said screw Bayonetta 2

I don't think I have ever posted these::

All the boxes are complete.


Not exactly a game I know. This one was a lucky find, got it for 60 euros shipped, box is complete and the contents were brand new, I have used the calculator quite a bit though. The box itself was damaged a bit during shipping but that's alright.

Nice little collection. You should try getting some more Nintendo classics

Also do those wireless gamepads work well?

[Scipi]

I don't think I've posted my collection in this thread yet.

Here's what I got on steam

I recently picked up a game called Ashes of the Singularity. Looks like an RTS to watch for in the future

Here's what I have for console games:

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Wow that's a lot of Xbox games. I think among my entire collection, I only got like 10-15 Xbox games total, all generations included. NES/SNES games, on the other hand...

[novenary]

Nice little collection. You should try getting some more Nintendo classics

Also do those wireless gamepads work well?

Yeah they work pretty well but they have no rumble. I've started researching a way to modify regular controllers to be wireless for this exact reason.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Oh I didn't know that. Also I didn't know the regular gamepads had rumble support. I thought it was an attachment sold separately like on the Nintendo 64.

Also didn't you hate back when every console peripheral was sold separately? >.< We bought a $60 game (or higher), only to end up having to buy a memory card as well, a rumble pack, a memory expansion pak, etc. On top of that, back then most CRT TVs had just one input (the RF jack) and many consoles only came with AV cables, so you had to buy a special adapter for every console. On the other hand, memory cards were nice since you didn't need to carry all your cartridges or discs with you at friends' homes.

[novenary]

Our CRT was pretty high end back then, it had multiple input including two or three RGB scart inputs so that was pretty nice. I played the GC with that as a kid. There aren't many games that require additional accessories on the GC, they all came with a memory card too though you had to buy a larger one if you wanted to store more saves.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

I wonder if they ever made HD CRT TVs...

Also I bought The Pagemaster (SNES) and The Guided Fate Paradox (PS3)
