    Why??
    Is it that dodgy cart?
    I have a decent if small Famicom game collection, bolstered by my Nes collection that works well on it via an adapter.
    Means I can play Gradius and Gradius II from the lovely Famicom carts and follow it up with Parodius played on the Famicom from its big coarse Nes cart via an adapter and even though that game is in a Pal format it runs at full speed on the little Japanese wonder console!

    Maybe because he said if you post about a recent get without pics, a retro game is destroyed. Then you posted again without a pic, destroying another retro game, and the loss of that retro game is what saddens him. :)

    Ah, I see.

    You know you can get tablets for that sort of thing
    Suppositories if preferred !


    Probably shouldn't mention the Mario and Luigi Bowsers Inside Story then, or N+ both for the DS.
    No, best not....

    It's like you feed off the pain, I just like seeing the pictures of all the wonderful gets. Although, where did you get N+?

    States, it wasn't released here and I have tried it before on some dodgy card but wanted the real deal.
    Looking forward to playing it, it's still on a plane somewhere!

    Picked up Super Fun Chess for the DS today
    I don't know if it's title is misleading or not, I've some good times playing chess but never anything I would describe as Super Fun.

    Damn, that's a great couple of prices on those titles.
    Nice one

    I sacrifice socialising and take aways to own stuff like this :cool:


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,528 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    I've got one of those!
    Of course you have all the games they gave away as well, yes?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    It does indeed, I checked. And a digital download of donkey kong country returns :D

    I'd give up fast food for something like that, but socializing? Naaah! How much was it? :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    The console plus Pokemon Black, white 2, mario kart 3DS, and Pokemon Y, for €210. So I can sell all that.

    Oh, you think the Ambassador Certificate is your ally, but you merely adopted the 3D. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t see the cert until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33,733 ✭✭✭✭Myrddin


    Another ambassador owner here, €300 for the launch model 3DS. We should have been sent physical gold plated ambassador certs!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    I did buy it at launch, €300 including pilotwings from HMV. I was able to return it when I realised I had nothing to play on it :pac:


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,528 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    I bought it at launch , stayed in love until I sold it to finance a 3DS XL but not before transferring my goodies across.
    I then missed it too much and picked up a Zelda themed 3DS to replace the original one.

    Hmm, I can't ban someone on this forum, sure I can't?
    Bugger!

    Ok, I didn't know it would bother me so much after selling it, then I just needed it again!!
    Now I've three systems capable of running 3DS games!
    By next year I'll have two more!

    Being a Nintendo fan, it's getting expensive and tiring!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    I upgraded mine to an XL and haven't sold the original yet. :(
    It's CIB, and if I'd sold it when I upgraded, I'd have gotten a lot more for it. :(

    Might as well hang onto it so, if you aren't big on hanging onto it maybe some youngster would appreciate the gift, a 3DS and a copy of Super Mario 3D Land would make anyone's day!

    Why did you miss the 3DS after getting the XL? Was it or something about the system you preferred?

    I own the following
    Game and Watch
    Gameboy
    Gameboy pocket
    Gameboy Color
    Gameboy Light
    Gameboy Advance
    Gameboy Advance SP
    Gameboy Advance SP ags101
    Gameboy Micro
    Pokemon Mini
    DS
    DS lite
    DSi
    DSiXL
    3DS XL
    2DS

    The only one missing was the original 3DS that I had bought at launch and sold recently to fund my 3DS XL.
    I realised my error and picked up a replacement last month.
    A lovely black Legend of Zelda edition.
