Mistakes were made

So two years ago, there were dozens of complete Shadow Tower copies floating around ebay and amazon. Now everything is either low_quality trash with missing cover art and disc only, or it's $150 minimum.

I should have grabbed it way back when for $10 complete you feel me? Have you ever missed an opportunity and it really came back to bite you?

I bought the Limited Edition. Despite the quality, SWAT tears and greater tacticool armor customization ended up putting in hours of play time.

When I was a kid, I was offered a Base Set Charizard (yes, that one) in exchange for my Snorlax, but I didn't make the trade. I knew how valuable Charizard was--but the other kid obviously didn't at the time, so I didn't want to take advantage of that.

Good call. You would have had some huge ordeal with his parents, happened to me all the time when I traded crap to some dumbshit kids.

A FUCKING MEWTWO FOR A CHARMANDER. HE DESERVED IT FOR BEING SO FUCKING RETARDED.

At a market 10 or 11 years ago, every N64 title was going for $5 and every N64 console for $20 at a market. I was allowed to choose 1 game on that particular visit. Conker's Bad Fur day was there but I liked the cover art for F-Zero X better at the time and went with that. I don't regret the choice for gameplay reasons because F-Zero is fucking solid, but PAL copies of Conker now go for $300 or more and I genuinely want to own a copy to play regularly. On top of this, a Pikachu Edition N64 has been at that same market ever since then, and its price has almost multiplied by 10.

For Halo 6 I hope 343 doesn't let MLG have it's way with the game like with Halo 5. Besides the asinine way sprint is handled with the shield recharge, they're the reason why aiming in the final product is different than that of the beta. I'm not saying the games should be super easy but 343 should realize that the main player base are not MLG tryhards.

I don't like Xenoblade X that much tbh, the gameplay feels like somewhat of an improvement over the original but everything else is just painfully average or flat out bad

I was about to photoshop this image to include a copy of Hyrule Warriors, just to be fair, but then I remembered that was ported to 3DS, and greatly improved with character switching/owl statues/all dlc included

They literally made the Wii-U version redundant with the 3DS' increased content tbh fam.

It's actually terrible because Hyrule Warriors is the only game I would recommend from Wii U, and ever since I got Legends the other week, that has become so much harder to do.
