Aaah ok. I should maybe check some Youtube footage.

Is it scary?

u/aetios January 21, 2015, 02:02:14 PM

Very.

Earlier I bought Dragon Warrior NES for $0.00 and Atelier Iris 3 PS2 for $24.99. The DW game was boxed but had no instructions. The PS2 game is complete but one of the two instructions manual (the French one) was photocopied.

I already have another copy of Dragon Warrior at home, but it was loose so if both copies are identical I'm gonna swap them (so I can keep my old saves) then trade in the other copy I just got later.

Target Canada will start their Going out of Business sale Thursday, but the real deals are probably gonna be in a few weeks (if there is anything decent left). They just pretty much stocked their shelves with anything they had left in the store backroom so I'm gonna check in case games gets good discounts. I probably won't buy a lot of games, though, since I am saving some money for a TI-84 Plus CE.

EDIT: I forgot that I still had 900 Nintendo coins left so now I used some to buy Earthbound, NES Remix and Golden Sun for the Wii U Virtual Console. Whoever still have coins left should use them ASAP because they will vanish completely after Spring ends.

Golden Sun is good. You should do an RPG based on a same genre! :p

u/Dream of Omnimaga February 04, 2015, 06:03:31 AM

I never played it sadly because I couldn't find it in stores (IIRC it's very rare and expensive), but I considered making a calc game with 3D ish battles once. I'Ll probably just go with Dragon Warrior style in my next RPG, though (if it's for the 83+ series)

u/Snektron February 08, 2015, 09:31:53 AM

You already have GMod and MC, so i see you kino what you're doing

Maybe something like Skyrim or Dishonored?

I recently picked up Life is Strange and i quite like it

u/Dream of Omnimaga February 09, 2015, 12:42:09 AM

You need to add moar NES, SNES, Nintendo 64 and Gamecube to your collection

I actually recently did a trip (split in half) in 4 local video game stores to see if I can score some good deals. I only got the games mentionned in my previous post, though. Free Game has some decent PSP games, but their current rare titles selection is expensive. Other retro stuff is poor. Microplay's selection was poor for retro games, except the boxed copy of Dragon Warrior, and while they had some cool new PS3 games, I didn't buy them because I prefer buying used games there so I can fill my privilege card (after buying 6 used games at $15 or higher I get $20 off on the next used game that is $19.99 or higher) and their used games are usually pretty cheap. EB Games selection was expensive, although not bad, while Instant Comptant had a terrible, overpriced selection (seriously, $15 for a Nintendo 64 sports game?)

My next trip will be to La Planque, maybe if I can hang out with juju nearby. Not sure if I want to do a trip there just to go to La Planque, though. Quebec City retro gaming stores are so spread apart compared to my city D: . I'm still keeping somee extra money away for the calculator and perhaps guitar, so video game budget is somewhat limited.

I'm not getting the New 3DS now, because apparently transfering your 3DS data to it is a major PITA, and if I get the New 3DS I'm selling the old one, meaning that I would prefer not losing any data...

u/tr1p1ea February 09, 2015, 12:51:31 AM

Plus some others that I forget that I also haven't played yet :S

u/Dream of Omnimaga February 09, 2015, 01:06:06 AM

tr1p1ea since you like soccer, regardless of if you get a PS2 again or not you might want to grab a copy of FIFA 14 (or PES2014 if it's available for your console region). In America FIFA 14 was the final PS2 game and only a few copies seems to have been printed (unless they're all located in brick and mortar stores in Brazil?) since it's already very hard to find. Might be a collectible in a few years

By the way do you still play Mario Kart 8? Maybe we should play together at some point

u/aetios February 09, 2015, 08:05:26 AM

I didn't know Black Flag was also released on Wii U :o

Skyrim is on my wishlist and I'll keep dishonored in mind. Im currently waiting for the spring sale to get skyrim and the valve pack which would almost double my collection.

Edit.
I also got a 4k TV yesterday so I'm planning on plugging my desktop in for some some UHD gaming.

Protip : with Skyrim on UHD I suggest you to use the high res texture dlc as least or some upgrade mods.

Yeah it was. Many 2012-13 360/PS3 hits came out on the Wii U as well, sometimes in enhanced editions or with all DLCs like Mass Effect 3. I never got into Assassin's Creed myself for some reasons, though, same for Mass Effect. I guess they're not japanese enough for my likings in terms of RPG/adventure elements
