I actually keep my strategy guides in drawers. Im not sure if it saves on space or not but I had the same problem I didnt want to go and buy a bookshelf,I was feeling cheap that day, and all the things I could have used kinda didnt match what I had for furniture in my room so I just rearanged my closet and the books found a space and it twaz free no less.
I also try to buy only hardcover if given a choice but it is dependant on the game realy. I actually only started collecting them when I went to get one,mind you I saw it in the store when I bought the game thought "I wont need this" and the following week when I went back to get it because I couldnt figure out where an item was,found out it was out of stock and no longer being printed.
This was ofcourse years upon years ago befor computers where common place in homes and google had yet to be a persons best friend. If nothing else I found on the purchase of them I got to have a bit of game art wich was a pluss and if I ever randomly needed them they where there. But overtime it just became a habbit to buy them and considering how much some game guides go for on ebay and amazon im kinda glad I developed that habbit lol

Indeed, that is a lot of stuff. I'm curious as to how much all that cost. Also, can you play those DS games on a US system?

MemberSo anyone here celebrates 4th of July? I know I do! XD Last year my personal stash of fireworks was smaller. $80 due to the fact I worked all of the days leading up to 4th of July so I couldn't go out to buy them and make deals. Instead I gave my funds to someone else and they did their best.
This year though, 1st of July landed on a Sunday which I also happened to be one of my days off. So I decided to do my awesome deal. ^_~ Here is what $200 got me as well as lots of haggling:
Not bad for $200!
Gotta have the Roman Candles and Sparklers. For those wondering, no I won't be lighting all of these by myself. I invited family and friends over for a BBQ and I prefer to share with them. Of course they also tend to bring their own as well! ^__^
Ah mortars! And various small bottle rockets and cracklers/black cats. The blue box, Little Dynamites are my favorite! Since I can stick that thing into anything. >_>
And this was the center piece that started my deal!! I couldn't get all the fireworks shown on my first pick for exactly $200 if I didn't buy a large center piece. From there you tell them your MAX amount you have and say "What kind of bundle can you make for me?" Then its all about hesitation. You MUST fake it so that they throw in as much stuff in it while you also make suggestions of your own. If they start putting stuff back while adding other stuff, make it look like you are no longer interested. They usually put the stuff back into the bundle while keeping the new stuff they just added. XD From there, its all about striking a conversation and keeping the deal going by making them add more stuff to finalize the purchase. Remember, don't budge on your max. They WILL add more stuff!! XD
The Black Serpent was something they wanted to put away while adding the stuff you see on the floor. When they notice I was not feeling the bundle anymore, they decided to add the Black Serpent back in while keeping the other stuff in it. ^_~
So whats in the Black Serpent? Canister Mortars! XD And this box contains a BUNCH of them! Thats just one side of the box! There is another set on the other side! ^___^
These are other fireworks they threw in. I didn't really want these but since they throw it in to get me to budge a bit more to purchase, I figured why not.
But yep! That's just 3/4 of the Fireworks I bought! XD I still have to buy a Grand Finale and at least 2 explosive grade fireworks. :P I have a friend from last year who wants me to buy them from their stall so I shall try that before the 4th. Hope you guys have a good 4th though! (And be safe! ^_~)

RedEagle: Due to restrictions where I live (AZ) I'm not allowed to set off any sort of fireworks in my general city limits. One of the fireworks I wish I could set off are those Roman Candles. If I remember, they shoot fireballs right?
Neo: Since I guessed the surprise you had last time, I'm going to guess you got that No Peeping sign from Agarest 2?

Member@Neko: Yep those would be the Roman Candles! I don't recall I got the Roman Candles that also report (explode). However since the version I got is Black Cats...there is a good chance they might. XD Though I am hoping my sis will bring some more of those as well as Saturn Missiles which are my favorite. (I have a few in the pics. 5 of the 25-Shots, and 2 of the 100-Shots)
As for being legal...haha supposedly this will be the last year that fireworks is legal in my city. But that's just the rumor I heard at least. Hopefully its not cause I been lighting fireworks since 1st Grade. XD

Meant to do this on Monday. Been lazy. Sorry.
If you'll notice the Limited Edition of Record of Agarest War 2 isn't opened. So yes those are two copies. I kept my promise Aksys. My wallet hates me.
Oh and I threw in the doujins to fill space. Also, the Vita was purchased a few months ago, but it was a friend's house this whole time (long story). So this is actually the first week of me having it in my house.

That's a good haul Console, lol.
Update: Just editing this post because I'll have to fix the pix to make them a bit smaller for the swag at AX. (Also, why is there no delete post, ugh, sometimes you may post by mistake and would want to get rid of it, but you can't. -_-)

I know I'm double posting (again, lol) but this time I think I fixed it, so without delay, here it is...
I also plan to give away the extra copies of the free stuff that Aksys gave out since I really only need 1 of them each (except the Aksys shirt and the Jubei Plush, they're both mine, lol.), I'll figure something about that when I have the time...Also, they had a banner auction as well, I'll put them up when I can...
