Yesterday I Bought II: Many Things

I preferred the first film, I'll be honest. The second ended on an anticlimax.

Happily, the game lives up to its reputation as a NES classic. Haven't seen the film for years, but I recall enjoying the first one a great deal more.

The second film seemed to be way over the top. The first one was simple and more classic, though it does look dated today (to these tired eyes).

On-topic, Paper Monsters Recut at £2.79 in the sale. That's three new games this year so far.

Never heard of that one.

Only 3, some how I've added 22 games (Some PSN+) since Christmas mainly due to me going eShop mad before the premium ran out.

I bought these things

I've played DOA before but thought for £3.79 NEW from argos was a punt just to see what the New 3DS's 3D is like which to say is very good.
Bought TheatRhythm as I liked the first and as argos didn't have Kirby, picked this up from GAME instead as it's on offer for £20.
Ohh and of course the New 3DS along with a 32GB card.

I'm not surprised - it's a conversion of a mobile game. As it's a 2D platformer, I made getting it my business. Seems really basic so far but you shouldn't judge from the first level alone.

On-topic, I bought lots of fruit, veg and seeds to start a new life as a smoothie drinker. Whatever else happens, it's going to be an expensive business.

I can't stand smoothies. Yoghurt goes in a pot or a bowl, not in a drink.

Most of the recipes Jo is suggesting don't have yoghurt in them. On the other hands, there's a number of exotic seeds that some poor schmuck is going to have to source.

@Stu mainly I did a some thoughts on all those eShop games I bought before the premium (in the eShop thread), which includes that game (which I paid full price for) and I said this From the little bit I played it reminds me of Tearaway / Mario / Epic Yarn the style of it, only did the tutorial level but seems good but only thing I found weird is that you can see all the zones and one says something like not in this port. I would agree it's rather simple from that level.

Got me this



Which for the price of it, I could have gotten 3 other figures

Exotic seeds, eh?

One of these days I might even play my copy of Tearaway...

These are the phsyical games I've bought in the last couple of weeks.



That's the Rayman Family Pack that the light is obscuring. I've also bought more eShop games I can name.

That's a impressive haul, yeah keeping it physical always seems more meaning then downloads for owning & buying.

Assuming you're actually going to play it, you'll have to tell me what you make of the Disney 3DS game. I wasn't fussed about Infinity, tbh.

My latest haul of game soundtracks and anime.



Steins;gate on bluray, tamashii buddies goku (because why the heck not?  Totally need to get me piccolo now) and the complete original soundtracks for Freedom Wars and Etrian Odyssey 4.  Also the single containing the ending themes for Aldnoah Zero's first season as well as the insert song, all by the same composer as the shows original soundtrack (and Xenoblade X!)  

Truth be told I could have gone with the limited edition of the single, but I prefered the cover of the standard edition because of that gorgeous image of earth.

Er, yes? Hemp seeds were amongst the haul.

Cap's haul:

I'm interested in your takes on Captain Toad and Watch_Dogs, Cap. Also, Beat The Beat! There were only two more frustrating Wii games, for me. *shudder* (Sin & Punishment 2 and Mario Strikers Charged, for the record, Your Honour)

Picked up a few bits this morning
Super Monkey Ball on Cube for £4
WWE Wrestlemania X8 on Cube for £1
Sonic Mega Collection on Cube for £8, Which means my Sonic collection is rather good on Nintendo home consoles also bring my GameCube collection to 40 games
Super Smash Bros for 3DS & Wii U collectors guide for £9.99

This landed in my lap yesterday. £3:

The new OXM, two books that I held off on buying so my family would have something to get me for Christmas then nobody got them for me but my brother got TWoIaF didn't he, no I'm not bitter at all, some cassette tapes to play in my car tomorrow and a dozen Transformers kinder eggs.

A new cheap and nasty laptop. Which is actually nasty.. It can't do 2 things at once without cracking it...

Traded in some WWE dvds and ordered the WWE Network. Am now like a kid in a sweet shop - so much to watch!

Picked up Super Mario Galaxy, Deadly Creatures, PSOIII, Zack & Wiki and Metroid: Other M - all cheap and cheerful. Is there much difference between Galaxy 1 and 2, as I'm 20 stars in to Galaxy 2, and it's incredible. Going from 2 to 1, is it a step back at all? (Haven't played much Wii, in case you're wondering why I'm new to the Galaxy games).

You haven't played the Galaxy games? I mean, I'm not one of their greatest fans, but even I know that you're in for a treat.  1 and 2 do different things, and arguments rage over which is the best.  I'd definitely hit the postgame of 1 before 2 - the former will seem dull as all hell otherwise.

Let us know how you find Deadly Creatures, too: I recall NGamer being vaguely complementary about it.

I prefer the first Galaxy game, but to be honest, they're both bloody brilliant. Enjoy!

A car! It's very exciting.
And naturally I've already Transformered it up.

Yay for Drunka's new car! Save drivin', man.

MY copy of Buster Busts Loose for SNES turned up yesterday. Beat it in the same day.
