SNES mini still £79.99. Looking around for the NES mini with no luck so far.

Are you still looking? They had them on very.co.uk when I looked this afternoon.

Recent pick-ups:

I planned on getting that Mega Man X Legacy Collection, but Capcom screwed the pooch on it... AGAIN! So instead, I spent it on something else, being that I got lucky twice and found the first release bundle of Bayonetta 2 with Bayonetta 1 (so I now have three physical copies of Bayo 2, while I have two for Bayo 1) AND I found an NES Classic Edition out in the wild.

Had my birthday on 7/23 and folks bought me Dishonored 2.

Glad they're making NES classics more available again.

I know it is nothing impressive but I did find a perfect condition Japanese import of Majora's Mask. Though it is just the cartridge... I would post a photo but I can't yet :'(

October and November pickups primarily, though there is one December pick up

BONUS: With the acquisition of SSX 3 for XBOX and GameCube recently, I can confirm that I have all three console versions of the game AND I have completed my SSX Collection as far as I want to, and even further, I have all three SSX games that were released on GameCube.

SSX is a classic that needs to come back in full form.

@benleslie5 They need a better venue for NERG, and some different sellers. Wish they'd sort it out as it has some potential to be a very good day out.

@WAJ: You could suggest it on their page on facebook or email them if that helps. I don't mind it for what it is for a local con/weekend for it. You are right that it could use some different sellers if they can.

Hi all, maybe this is not the correct topic to post this, but i´m new and i can´t create a new one. I would like administrators place this in the correct topic.

All those who like me, love retro gaming, would be very grateful if we could search at the main page (www.gamespot.com/new-games/?sort=date&...), using the option "sort by date oldest first", something like "?sort=date_asc". So when new games comes, the number of the search result page doesn´t change for the oldest ones. Would be very useful when you are reviewing games from oldest to newest, you locate a game at a result page number, and the next week the page number doesn´t change. Sorry for my english.

Thanks for all!!

Nice pick ups and I didn't know you're a Harry Potter fan.

Recent pickups: Featuring Bioware on XBOX, Zelda on 3DS, and Shonen Jump (aka my first Japan import, which I found at my local record store). You have no idea how happy I was to find JSS.

Recent pick ups:

Ghostbusters - Wii (the last time the full team is united, worried about the upcoming film without Harold Ramis)

Giana Sisters - Wii U (decided to take a look at this after Game Sack's Dave White reviewed it)

Halo Master Chief Collection - XBONE (yeah, that ONLY ON XBOX ONE tag is dated now... anyway, hearing it's serious issues are now ironed out, I decided to get it)

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone - GBC (looking to complete my Harry Potter RPG collection, having already owned Chamber of Secrets one more to go)

Recent pick ups: Tomb Raider: Legend and LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga (both on 360), already adore these games on other platforms, and included are my collections to both these franchises.

Fun fact: As I already own these games on GameCube (when Complete Saga was split), Tomb Raider Legend was ported to the GameCube after the success of the first Lego Star Wars on the same platform, which like TR, was a belated port to the console.

I was at Salt Lake Gaming Con and picked these up. Japanese imports for my GC collection and some more XBOX Classic games, plus all three of my imports, all related to Shonen Jump.

Battlestadium D.O.N. - Smash Bros like crossover between Dragon Ball, One Piece and Naruto.

Naruto: Gekito Ninja Taisen 3 (aka Clash of Ninja 3) - Adds to my Naruto game collection as well

Star Wars: KOTOR - Already beat it on Steam, but I thought what the hell...

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell - Already have the GameCube version, but still, it was $2 so again, what the hell.

And my Cube imports with Jump Superstars below.

@nintendoboy16: If you haven't already, you should look into buying Star Wars: Obi-Wan Xbox and despite it's clumsy control, one could say it was the foundation of Force Unleashed.

@nintendoboy16: Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Warrior Within are my top 2 favorite Persia games but The Two Thrones was such a disappointing game. Never knew a Wii version exist. Shame I miss out on that one.

You also should add Prince of Persia movie DVD as well and I like the movie, but it's forgettable.

@nintendoboy16: You should pick up the Wii version of PoP: Forgotten Sands if you ever come across it. Completely different game from the HD versions, and actually the superior one.

That's the first time I heard of that game but looking at the rating, you can tell it's a very old game cause ESRB haven't use that rating in years before they move to E-Everyone.

It's one of two launch titles in North America (Europe and Japan had 3).

Okay, the only "retro" game you see in this pic is Trauma Center as I always wanted to play that series.

But as I said in SW, I picked up Astral Chain FINALLY! Unfortunately, it wasn't on display at my local Best Buy, so I asked them if they had any in stock.

Picked up Jedi Outcast (GameCube), Dragon Quest XI (Switch), and Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever (GBA; yeah... based on a bad Banderas/Liu movie, but the game is reportedly pretty decent)
