Not just candy. Go take the lid off the water tank on your toilet and look inside.

That's called an "upper decker". :wink:

Artwork to rival the NTSC-US/C Ico cover, but I liked what I read of The Ancient Cave. Some serious dungeon crawling on the go sounds tempting.
Isn't it funny how the US Ico and Lufia: The Legend Returns covers look alike? Even moreso than Ghost Squad and Zack & Wiki.

Why those questions :?:
I think the subject of this thread is 'the stuff you've just bought', not 'what you're doing of it'.

Of course you can buy "awesome" stuff but in your case what to do with may not be "awesome", could be far from it, hence the line of questionning which you deftly dodged meaning...

A sealed game is a game that has not fulfilled its potential. Somewhere there is a person wanting to play the game and somewhere there is a copy just sat there unused for the sake of nothing.

And then there are condition-stickling lunatics like me who'll go for a sealed copy for the express purpose of opening and playing it. I'm glad a sealed HD wasn't around when I got my mint CIB copy a couple months back!

<3 sealed game collectors. :lol:

Open that baby. It's been sealed away, neglected and lonesome for far too long. It's like getting pregnant but never giving birth. Do you want to be pregnant FOREVER? Exactly the same.

Man, I've loved that cover art ever since I saw the NES box as a little kid. It's both awesome in its own right, and also gloriously misleading. :lol:

Rather like Star Soldier's NES box, come to think of it... (SS is less awesome though, dude looks like he's all sweaty and shitting himself >_> while Mr. Image Fight is a stone cold killer, and is clearly on a KILL TIME with his finger in the trigger guard!)

Yeah I've got to agree that art looks boss. At least it isn't as misleading as every Atari 2600 game ever produced.

On second thought... now that I'm a grizzled old man, not a little nubcaek in the rental place, I see I've been wrong all these years. Mr. Image Fight is the image of a Master Of The Shooting.

Finger on the trigger, rookie.

Star Soldier guy is DTP. He really feelin the pressure. Image

Same here, this is exactly why I like to buy my games new.
But for some reason, it seems buying an old item new and sealed drives some people nuts or makes them upset, as they automatically conclude that you want to keep it sealed unopened lol... What's the point in buying a video game if you never open it ? I don't get it.

After a month of waiting they all finally arrived. (note the top row I had for awhile now,I am referring to the bottom row)

Image

Picked most them up for £25 each (£30 with postage from Japan). AmiAmi's postage prices leaves much to be desired though.

Been playing Espgaluda 2 Xbox 360 mode, I have almost broken the 10 mill mark! :lol:
