Been trying to finish the gameroom this past month or so. Got some new statues. Few i'd really been wanting: Cloud, Sephiroth, Fei, Weltall, Mythra and Pyra! Picked up a new tv which i was in need of. Old one was sorta dyin on me. New Sony soundbar/subwoofer setup. Still waiting on a TV riser i ordered so i can bring it up off the floor and under the tv. Tv is last years 2018 Samsung Q9FN QLED 65inch mafk. Pretty happy with it and the thing was damn near half off from what it was going for last year. Got a PS4 pro to go with it and a stack of new ps4 games i've been wanting to play. Sorta fell behind on current PS4 games since i've mainly been playing the Switch the last couple years. Feels good to be nearly done with the game room tho. Set up a final Billy shelf for strategy guides, bigger games and room for expansion amd hooked up an AC so i can keep it cool in the summer!

Where did you get the cat tree and how much was it? I have a cat that's nearly 2 feet long and I can't find a tree large enough for him.

Its a pretty good book. Very well put together. It goes into a lot of detail of the main series, so SMB1,LL, SMB2, Land 1&2, 3, World, 64, Sunshine, Galaxy games, New Super Mario series, Mario Maker. 

Lots of info on the story, features, development, each of the levels characters for each game, screenshots, maps with info and descriptions for each. Tips and tricks, pictures of the package box, game cart/CD and even the manuals...etc. LOTS of info. 

Its got shorter excerpts on the featured and cameo games, so like Mario Karts, World 2, RPG and a whole bunch of other games Mario appeared in. They list pretty much EVERY game Mario/Luigi has appeared in, with short descriptions of their roles + screen shots. Also, any special Mario events, tournamenets of past...etc. 250+ pages in total. 

 Only odd thing I would say is the Mario Maker game info is at the beginging, whereas the rest of the book goes through the timeline chronologically. Little odd, but I guess it was the newest game as the time (no MM2 in this book). There is a good timeline of the series at the begining which was a good read. 

So yeah, very well put together and I would say a solid addition to any collection. Must have for Mario die-hards or fans for sure. I think I got it for like $25 on Amazon shipped, brand new hardcover. Very well spent. Good coffee table or toilet material

Well my SNES collecting is basically done.  Other than occasionally searching eBay for soccer games.  And my 3DS collection is basically done as I have a handful of titles to wait for deals on.  And I only really buy Switch games as I finish off the game(s) I'm currently playing.  And hunting for games is such a waste of time that I don't even bother anymore.

...so I've been creating a brand new backlog.  One where scores are still ready to be made all over the place.  This is the last 4 months or so, sitting on eBay, waiting for prices to dramatically (and temporarily) drop on Amazon for whatever reason it is they do that, thrift stores, used book stores, and this place in my hometown that has brand new overstock for half price.




...and then two Switch games I guess.


edit:  oh, and these of course:





...and I guess I have been replacing my entire King collection, from destroyed paperbacks to the nice trade lines from the last couple years.  Just have to wait for each one to drop in price, one by one

Yesterday, I got a ton of NES games and a couple Atari ones as well. There's nothing really crazy here, but the fact that I got all of these games for under $100 makes them special to me. And there's a lot of good games here too!

-------------------------
I'm not looking to buy or sell anything at the moment. Sorry if I got your hopes up.
This is so sad. Can we get 2 likes?

I picked this up on Sunday. It's funny because I had actually taken this off my main list because I am not trying to spend too much right now and I went to a store where I had a bunch of store credit and the game was sitting there for a fair price. All that said, this game is awesome, wish I had played it sooner.

Picked up a sealed copy of Dexerity. Then a loose copy of the game.
Also, picked up a mint box Gargoyle's Quest (which I never thought I would own, at least not so soon, but I got a STEAL on it and am so happy with it).
Also got The Hunt For Red October (Mint in the box)
And Kirby's Dream Land (Mint in Box).

Very happy with my pickups. All total I spent: 231 dollars on all the games.

Latest loot. Been picking up a bunch of Switch games. Just hit 300 total Switch games with this bundle. Also against my better judgement i recently picked up an Xbone X so i been snagging a few games for that and finally jumping into some 4K Blu-ray action which may be the real reason i grabbed one, lol! Wanted a lil more to take advantage of the new tv. Been playing a lot of Forza Horizon 4 and it is beautiful! Loving it!

Game Stack:



Xbone X:



4K Blu-Ray Starter Bundle:

Wow dude, you are droping a load of cash on this. I hope you like these games, I'd be worried about switch collecting.

Why would you be worried about Switch collecting? Feels like the only current gen system worth collecting for in my opinion.

Why would you be worried about Switch collecting?
Only because collecting anything the value of it is based on rarity. Since many people are switching to digital, that cuts down the demand side of the supply and demand. Plus, I don't like the fact that any library that requires the internet. And the fact that many of the switch games are just the game without any instruction manual etc.

But please understand, the stuff you have is LOVELY and you should be proud to have what you have, I just wonder about the long term investment of it. 

 



You're lovely, lol. Yeah, i dunno, i don't think think about them things much. I just like Switch. Not really in it for a return on my money or anything though i do feel Switch will hold its value better than PS4 or Xbone games. More into playing the games and Switch has a lot of great games! Trying to pick up most everything im interested in.

I would contact your financial advisor if you're worries about long term investments and I'm 100% certain that they'll explain to you that toys and video games are not wise places to put your investments...
