The Official New Aquisitions Thread

I can't believe you found a US version of BBO&N I'm almost 100% sure it wasn't released in the US, I live in gamestores and have never heard of it comming or going and I've never seen hide nor hair of it either..... show me proof!

I'll take a picture of it tomorrow after work and post it. It was barely released. Kept getting delayed, and then the Gamestop near me got one single copy. I definitely have it, but the box came kinda squished. I was happy just to have found it, so I bought it damaged. But there are a number of new copies available in my area now for $19.99. If you really want a copy, I'm willing to pick one up for you and arrange to mail it.

In other news, I randomly found a copy of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night at my EB for $24.99. It was slightly damaged but, again, I was happy just to have found a copy so I bought it. I also picked up Lament of Innocence for $19.99.

fish, I checked around, it did release under the radar. I apologise for dobting you however I can't find a new one only a kajillion used ones........ so if you could tell me a Gamestop (by store #) that has a new or complete one I could call them and have them ship it to my store.

also, is anyone able to make new topics in here?

if so, please repost the following in this board, me and pyro can't.....

I'll definitely look around for you and let you know. It may take a little bit though.

In related news, I won't be around the forums as much as usual this week. I became an uncle this afternoon, and things are pretty busy around here. I'll be sure to check in though. Have a good week guys.

Just got GTA: LCS for the PSP. I liked the console versions, but I could never finish them. I lost interest. But I think the portability will make it much easier for me to finish. I also got Psychonauts new for $30, which isn't bad I guess.

After work today I'll be picking up my copies of DDR: Mario Mix and Metroid Pinball for the DS.

Bought a NeoGeo and Samurai Spirits, all MIB last night from an ebay auction.  $277 all told with shipping.  Can't wait to start playing Sengoku again.  I Got sniped for a second auction, though.  DrFish, nice find with the $30 Psychonauts, I've been meaning to snatch that one.

I got it at EB Games. They're having a sale this week. It's in their flier. $30 for Psychonauts, new. I'm sure you can get it at any EB for the same price.

277 mint in box for an AES and Samurai Spirits? Veruy nice, what did you get sniped on? ... Something about Psykyo shooters just gets me.propyro

I got sniped on a complete copy of Faria, though maybe sniped is too strong a word (though I used it first).  It was more like, I was winning with 30 minutes left and got involved in something.  35 minutes later, I checked on the auction and noticed that I'd lost.

Psikyo is one of my favorite shooter developers, too.  Strikers 1945 is a great game, and they've developed other strong titles.

you like Strikers 1945 eh?. Play-asia.com so far has been one of my favorite importers, you might find this game cheaper online, but this is about as good as it'll get price wise.propyro

I just "blogged" my newest buys, I'm only doing it once a week from now on.

I took a trip down to Cincinnati w/my girlfriend this weekend to visit her sister at college. I picked up Donkey Kong Country 3 on the GBA, which I'm excited about because it was the only one in the series I never got a chance to play on the SNES.

I also picked up these Atari Asteroids and Breakout watches from Fossil outlet stores. The Asteroids watch originally sold for $125, but I got it for $50, which I was pretty proud of. They're both limited editions and come in commemorative tins. You can't actually play the games, they just kinda go on in the background. But they're still pretty damn nifty.

After a brief TV-buying-related game-buying hiatus, I had a pretty good weekend.  Here's what I got:

1. Armored Core 2, MIB, PS2, $5

2. Armored Core Nexus, Mint, PS2, $10

3. Eternal Darkness, new, sealed, GC, $9.99 (though I've already got an open copy).

4. Knight's Apprentice, mint, X-Box, $7

5. Run Like Hell, mint with soundtrack CD, X-box, $5

6. Pro Cast Sports Fishing, mint, X-Box, $6

7. Silent Scope Complete, mint, X-box, $10

8. Virtua Quest, new, sealed, GC, $4.99

9. Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner, mint, PS2, $10

10. Gamecube component video cables, used, $29.95 (they're currently back-ordered at Nintendo, B.T.W.)

11. PS2 controller extension cable, new, $4.99

12. Monster Game S-Video/RCA audio Gamecube cables, free (Thanks, Sam!)

13. strategy guide to Syphon Filter, free (Thanks, Randy!)

I also bought the complete series of Cleopatra 2525 on DVD, as I'm a Gina Torres fan.  Wow.  It just may be the finest piece of cinema put to disk.

3. Eternal Darkness, new, sealed, GC, $9.99 (though I've already got an open copy).gmsnpr

I've been looking for a new copy. I lent mine to a friend a few years ago and I don't think I'll ever see it again.
