Plus I hear the wi-fi share is very slow so you may still want a larger SD card.

I grabbed three texture packs for Minecraft PS4 Edition, the fantasy pack, the city pack, and the steam punk packs. I had $3 left over in my account from a gift card I forgot I had so I spent it on my first ever DLC purchase. Okay I take that back my second DLC purchase, my first ever was unlocking the DX in Sonic Adventure on PS3.

I got Alien Syndrome for Wii. It was on sale at Hastings for $5 plus it was 30% off so I got it pretty damn close to nothing. I paid a whopping 3 bucks for this game it had better suck.

I bought The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D this past Friday. Wanted Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate as well, but didn't have the funds and didn't really have time for it anyhow.

This is my first time playing Majora's Mask since its original N64 release, so it's practically a new game with some memories of locations and events. Having fun with it, and trying not to use a guide to do everything.

Gaming budget is sort of nonexistent these days... Had planned to pick up Majora's Mask, but I happened on a copy of  Avalon Code and picked that up instead. It's gotten pretty hard to find, so when I found a complete copy I couldn't help jumping on it (so far I'm really enjoying it despite its various flaws). :\ Ah, well, should be easy to find MM for awhile yet, so I'll hopefully be able to pick it up later.

This is my first time playing Majora's Mask since its original N64 release, so it's practically a new game with some memories of locations and events. Having fun with it, and trying not to use a guide to do everything.

This'll be my first foray back into Termina since the N64 days, as well! I have fond, if fuzzy, memories. Looking forward to it, whenever that may be. :)

I've really had to fight off the urge to get Majora's Mask 3D as well. I don't know why I'm really wanting this game so much as most other times, I'm not in any rush or hurry to play a game but somehow I've been caught up in the hype for this release.

Still, there's other games I need to buy first. For instance, Mario Golf: World Tour is disappearing from shelves. I didn't realize this until I was checking out Best Buy's website on a NEW 3DS and found that they had discounted it to $24 and it was no longer being stocked. Brain Age: Concentration Training has disappeared from store shelves and I didn't even realize it until now. Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney is another game I suddenly realize isn't around. It's not just Amiibo that is getting limited runs, it appears that most games these days are also getting smaller physical copies shipped which really puts a damper in my normal buying habits of waiting for deals.

Meanwhile, some stores are still trying to sell off Nintendogs and Steel Diver stock. I wonder if Nintendo has decided to ship less due to its growth of digital sales and doesn't feel the need to really stock store shelves as the games can later be purchased through the e-shop. If so, it will really make it harder to get deals as stores will have less merchandise that they have to sell and after its sold out, the e-shop will be the only way to get it so it doesn't have any market to compete with aside from eBay. The rarer the physical copies, the higher the resale market. The Mario Golf one just shocks me. It hasn't even been out a year. Mario Party Island Tour still has plenty of stock and it's been out much longer.

One of the first times I noticed this happening was with Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask. I thought I had plenty of time to buy it as the DS editions were on shelves for years. Then when it finally came up near the top of my list of most wanted software I was going to buy it, I realized I couldn't find it in stores anywhere. I was finally able to purchase a copy this Friday when I went to an EBGames (Canada's GameStop) and found a really good condition used copy on their shelves. First time I'd even seen a used copy of that game. I have seen the future and it scares me.

Crap, don't tell me this. Throws off my buying habits as well. Nintendo games are already stubborn to drop down in value and now they could disappear before they drop low enough to snag.


My next promotion can't come soon enough. :P

Things are available digitally now, though, and we even see sales on their own stuff from time to time, so nothing ever totally disappears.

I like my boxes, carts, and discs. But it is slightly reassuring that you can get the game digitally in a worst case scenario.


Oddly enough, I prefer my PC games digital. Though I suspect that is due to Steam and all of their wonderful deals which make it tough to pass by.

But what about selling it off later? If I want to sell off my 3DS collection, I can do so in pieces as different people will be after different titles. If you've bought everything digitally, how do you sell off your collection if you wish to do so?

Screw selling things! How will I be able to build a shelf of priceless gaming memorabilia to drive my wife nuts and show off in the background of youtube videos to prove my nerd cred?

Guess you'll just have to show off a collection of memory cards in the background instead.

At least you've been warned. I came upon this horror with no warning.

Oddly enough, Azran Legacy seems to be even harder to find in stores than Miracle Mask.

You say that but, I'm seriously considering shadow boxing all my Nintendo Handhelds.  I have from Gameboy and up just in my house.

Video games I picked up Dragon Age Inquisition on PS4. So far I am really liking it. Its not the best but it will hold me over for the time being.


Non-video game gaming related I dropped a wad of cash and picked up the entire 5th edition core rule books this weekend. I needed a break from life and nothing takes you away like a good run of D&D.


Also non-game but video game related I picked up the Angry Video Game Nerd Movie on Blu Ray. Loved it, totally worth the wait and exactly what I was expecting it to be. It had some moments but it was what I wanted in a Nerd movie. Also loved the Nostalgia Critic review and appearance. I also grabbed a Retro NES baseball cap at Target to go with my NES Remix T-Shirt I got from Club Nintendo as the last reward I will ever get from them. It was far from a good week over all but gaming related I bought some cool stuff.

Well I was about to drop some money on a ton of PS3 games today but the Playstation Store kept kicking me out for some reason so I gave up. I will try again tomorrow if I can get back in.
