I'm hoping the discs all work 100% properly with no problems, because the person who was selling it DID say fully tested and works, so I SHOULDN'T encounter a problem I hope.

Item condition was listed as: Good
I'm still collecting Crash Bandicoot games so I'll get the ps2 collection (excluding Titans and Mind Over mutants here), and all the GBA ones, maybe Crash Boom Bang for Ds but not sure since it really doesn't hold my interest. Then my Crash collection is complete, and I can move on to Spyro.
Also I beat CTR 101% :)

If there's one set of games I would love to get my hands on, it'd be the Metroid Prime series.

I bought all 3 off ebay a year or 2 ago, only played the first one, its so immersive and the atmosphere created by the soundtrack and artstyle is phenomenal. Got lost somewhere though I think, its a pretty big and challenging game in my opinion!

Won't Metroid Prime 3 lose some stuff because of the shutdown of WiiConnect24?

I don't think Corruption had any online features, but I could be wrong.

I got Kid Icarus: Uprising last night, playing it bit by bit, pretty good so far, seems to be the gun equivalent of a hack 'n slash, and now I see what people were going on about with the fucking controls. They aren't bad by any means, I've gotten somewhat used to it by the second chapter, but a right stick would make this so, so much better.

I also just got an NES off Ebay, I've finally made the first step to start my collection! Can't wait to get it and have it on display! Just need to clear a spot for it...

I heard there's some interactivity with the Wii Message Board, that will also go kaput in endings of June along with Wiiconnect24.

Im currently playing Kid Icarus: Uprising too. The touch movement works pretty well for flight sections in my opinion, but for ground controls it can be pretty damn annoying at times, especially when you require precise movements in some of he later levels to avoid falling to your death and whatnot. Out of curiosity how are you finding the dialogue? I think its great and its cool to finally see some Nintendo characters with rich personality as good as the likes of those from Jak, Ratchet and Sly Cooper ( Dont get me wrong Mario,kirby dk, pimin etc are great games, but the characters within lack any sort of character depth or strong personality)

This is the kind of brilliance I haven't seen in a Nintendo game since Rareware back in the day (Besides Snake and Samus, but that got the rating shot up)

Plus the fourth wall, oh Sakurai you genius bastard. That part with the chest being out in the open, oh yeah we have to open that shit.

Haha awesome some people have slated the 4th wall stuff to be too cheesy, I can think of 3 awesome lines off the top of my head but ill not post them since they're a bit further into the game and are genuinely classic when they happen! Just wait for chapter 10, its great.

The old model or the nes toploader? I'm pretty glad to see you are now collecting. Snes is your next step.

The original model, can't have anything less! I've always planned on having a collection of game consoles, starting with Nintendo. And yeah, SNES next, I was hoping to get Earthbound for it, but after seeing the prices... Third on the list is an N64, I was looking for the golden one specifically, I saw quite a few some time ago, but was never able to get one, now they barely have any on Ebay...

After getting everything from NES to Wii U, I may grab some of the handhelds, someone was selling two original Gameboys for just $10, I wouldn't have a use for a second one, but it's damned cheap anyway. The handhelds wouldn't have much practical use anyway since the games themselves have batteries that will be long since dead. I really want to get a Game & Watch though, but there are so many to chose from, though I'm leaning towards Ball.

I'm contemplating what would be good choices in games for the NES, I want to nab Super Mario Bros. 1, 2 (USA), and 3, Zelda 1 and 2, and a few other core Nintendo titles. I don't know what other games would be good, I never got to play many NES games since the SNES was out when I was younger.

Oh boy, the hell of a price I payed for Earthbound. I have an n64 as well. My snes collection is probably the most big out of any system I own. If we're talking handhelds you could get a virtual boy, but those are starting to get ridiculously pricey online.

I'm just gonna skip out on the Virtual Boy for now, I don't know if I'll get any of the handhelds at all. I want to go for Sega consoles after I get all the Nintendo stuff, probably gonna go backwards and start where they finished, since I had a Genesis as a kid but never even played a Dreamcast.

In the end, I hope to have a good collection of Nintendo, Sega, and Sony consoles (M$ can fuck off), some older things from before Nintendo, like Atari or some shit. I want to get an arcade machine one day though, Pong to be exact, it would be the prize of my collection, sitting proud and tall. And if I ever win the lottery or something, I'd get Pac Man and Dig Dug too. I'd have my own freakin' mini arcade or something, or a video game museum.

I just beat Bioshock Infinite. I loved the game all the way, but the ending propelled it to new levels of awesome. I really don't want to spoil, but it is one of my favourite game endings.

Oh hey Gluetube! I didn't know you still came on RPC, I thought you went in-active on youtube for a long time, good to see you return! :)

The rumor was right it seems.

I'm in the process of stumbling my way through Abe's Oddysee, trying to save a decent ammount of Muds. I think I've gotten most of the possible ones so far. I've only let 2 die, but they were idiots anyway, and I don't want folks like them in my Mudokon society! :pascontent:

Too bad the checkpoint system is not very good. It's a bit annoying to have to walk several screens every time I fail at one of those hard, meaty challenges that this game constantly presents. New N' Tasty should fix that at least.
