Massive game purchase, am I crazy?
Mikan:
Why buy new Dreamcast. as soon as its out of box its considered "used" :P Locally through like Craigslist you can pick a bundle up for much less.
edit: I guess it was fine :P since you can burn stuff, if only new console's were so easy. *cough*360 with that wave stuff*cough*
You sir, are a PIRATE *high fives* (Then again, who isnt nowadays?)
CptSpud:
You're not crazy, you're just a die-hard collector. I lost my N64 and all my games a long time ago, so I bought myself a new one and lots of games for it about a year or two ago. People said I was crazy for buying an old system like that, but I've put hundreds of hours into the thing since I bought it. Who's laughing now?
Right now I'm working on getting an NES, I never had the great fortune to own one of these little beauties. I had a SNES instead, but it just isn't the same. That, and the SNES is long since broken(stepped on!). So, I'm on a quest to get a working NES in good condition. If you love something, who cares how old it is, let the good times roll!

I didn't really feel like looking to honest. Plus I needed them for other things as well, not just these. Its $20 so it wasn't a big deal, but yea I see what you mean, I saw the same thing for $12 at bestbuy over the weekend. /sigh

*high fives back* I use to be in the 360 modding business and I even did some people's around my town. But ever since the ban wave before Modern Warfare 2 and almost losing all my precious saves being tied to that Hard Drive I've since left the Xbox modding scene. I can still do it if people ask me to but I personally won't do it again even after getting away with it for years. I've accepted the banning consequences and have moved on.

Ah yes the N64. I was thinking about that as well but decided against it. I have a lot of free time on my hands but to take on another console and upcoming stuff? That would just be overkill.

So nothing new exciting over the last few days. Of course since its winter there's no yard sales or flea markets or anything but I did come across 2 things today when I was out running some errands.
I figured I'd head into the local play-n-trade to see what they had and they had Tales of Vesperia up used for $20 so I grabbed it. For some reason or another I've been having some trouble trying to find Vesperia and I'm not quite sure why...
On the second note, Star Ocean 4 International edition is releasing Febuary 9th for the PS3. I played a good bit of it on the 360 barrowing it from a friend but I gave it back, so I'm definatly looking forward to finishing it with new characters.
LiquidZero:
im gonna hack my 360 and get lots and lots of emulators and mods so i can play all the old games i want.
because i dont have alotta of money, im in a depression..... :'(
