@Raithos might be a black friday purchase for later this year or something, when its even cheaper than that. I already have GR and Y4 to barrel though, I am skipping Zestiria for now (what were your final thoughts on Zestiria btw, did you ever beat it? Also XBCX, which I have personally lost most interest in playing sadly) and maybe Cold Steel after those 2 if I can. All I know is that I need to take a little break from JRPGs (although I guess technically some people believe Yakuza to be a JRPG, but you get what I mean)

Man there were just way too many games that came out back to back. I was playing the hell out of Zesteria and liked it a lot, the transformations in battle was super cool,then Fallout 4 took over my life lol never finished Zesteria. I put 100+ hrs into Fallout then started XBCX. I absolutely loved the game. Beat it and did some missions online with people and in a lot of ways it supassed XBC imho. When you do play it, you'll see its not as easy to compare them as you might think. And make sure to do the infinity missions. I got Cold Steel to play though as well, but won't touch it anytime soon. I should be getting Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme VS FORCE in the mail by the time I'm done with Cyber Sleuth so no more Rpgs for awhile lol. I really need to go back and finish Zesteria though.

^ Play Trails in the Sky Second Chapter when you are REALLY in the mood for some good ole JRPG fun. Trails in the Sky SC is a great game though, I am glad I prioritized it because I dont think I would have enjoyed any of these other games that came out as much as I enjoyed this one. But yeah its basically a 70 hours minimum of a game, I spent 100 hours playing it, give it a whirl when the time is right.

I just got super lucky. Found this at Best Buy when I went to get a copy of Conquest. Preorders sold out shortly after they went live. It has Conquest, Birthright and Revelation all on one cart. This is the only way to get a physical copy of Revelation. Otherwise its download only. With GCU it was only $64 plus tax! A guy was sitting this down on the shelf literally the moment I turned onto the isle. Someone must have canceled or not picked up their order.

Wow, you did get lucky, my friends on some other forums are all losing their minds trying to hunt down a copy of this, I have never played a Fire Emblem so im not really in the know about the series, but I think Nintendo is considering releasing more copies of this particular version, but knowing them i doubt it.

To my utter astonishment, I found about a dozen PC Engine games when I checked Half Price Books today. There were a couple I already had, and a few that didn't look interesting or playable with my limited Japanese, so I "only" walked out with 9. After sales tax the whole lot cost me just under $60.

What I don't get is why the weirdo who previously owned these threw out the jewel cases, but kept the plastic sleeves and manuals.

Always amazes me how they're able to make that cheesy 70's robot look so fucking badass with modern art stylizing.

Hell yeah! I mean they really have to try hard to mess up giant robots. Some manage to do it, but others just make it look so easy. Sunrise is the best.

I returned it because I couldn't justify the purchase right now, so I deleted the photo. Sorry :(
