Are those games fun? Never really heard of them other than some references in SSBB.

They’re awesome. Like very good Kirby games.

Just started the first one. It’s simple fun. Very relaxed gameply. Lots of Japanese text though.

Being a big fan of arcade flight games, I’ve always been curious about this neat-looking but vey obscure PSP exclusive.

Really? I thought i had the norwegian market for stuff like this on lock. Need to up my game i see. Congrats!

Just happened to see that a seller had all 3 boxes and snagged them. Turns out they were from Norway. Having fun with the first game so far!

Glad they ended in a good home!

Nice finds. I only have 3 on GBA, if you find 1 and 2 to be better I’d love to know!

Not a pickup as such, but I recenty mirrored my huge photo collection to Google Photos (main mirror is in iCloud, local copy on my drive) and it’s been a bit of a revelation for search (naturally, it’s Google).

I can search for terms like:

  • Wii, PlayStation, Dreamcast, mobygames, youtube, 花札, こいこい (text recognition)
  • game (AI figures it out)

to find images/photos/screenshots I’ve saved from the internet over the past many years to “remember to buy/play/borrow this game” and promptly forgotten about them. So I now have around a dozen new items on the shopping list! Nice.

Picked up Sega AM2’s latest rhythm action game digitally. I hope it plays well because it otherwise seems like a dream for me, always wanted a portable version of Project Diva Arcade and Hatsune Miku Project Diva MEGA39’s seems to deliver that! Will grab a boxed copy if Sega Europe releases one here, definitely want to support that if it happens.


In other Switch pickups Daemon x Machina was on sale at one retailer, since there aren’t many games like it out there I thought I’d give it a go.

I’ve got one other Switch game on the way too…

The interesting Fami games I’ve gotten (mostly) over the last few weeks

Also my Namco small box set is closing in.

I love the Black Bass cover. Also Wings of Madoola, Mystery of Convoy and Jackie Chan! Those are some famicom staples there. It looks like you’re getting close on the Namcot set. Looks like you need Battle City, Dig Dug, and Burger Time. Warpman is a fun game that not many have played.

Yep, love this Namco set. Feel like that’s my next boxed goal. Just afraid it’s gonna cost… but hey, it all does any more.

Not every day you get a game where you control a big lumbering tank so I thought I’d give this a punt, even if Namco’s track record with licensed games is iffy.

Beautiful! I love those high end monitors with the BNC connectors.

A local game shop had a 5 for $10 on any pre-NES game worth $4.99. I couldn’t resist grabbing a bunch for $2 ea.

I was happy to find a bunch with manuals!
