Just ordered Bayonetta Origins and Pikmin 4 for €20 and €45 respectively. Finally found Origins for a good price and I also saw that the retailer had discounted Pikmin 4 a bit. I don't think I'll find the games for much cheaper than this, especially Pikmin 4 since first-party titles rarely get below €40. Anyway, looking forward to playing both. I've heard that Origins is criminally underrated and went under a lot of people's radar last year. So it'll be interesting to see what I'll think of it.

So I have once again, not followed my own advice… and added yet another game to my ps3 backlog. Been loving the look of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 and heard really good things about the original… so just saw it in CeX for a fiver and nabbed it.

Just pre-ordered Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door on Switch. Super stoked for this game!

Just bought The Crew 2 on Series X for €1. I thought about buying this game last year, but €20 for a physical copy of an online-only game made it less tempting. €1 for a digital copy as well as a future update of making the game playable offline made it much more tempting, so I had to get it now.

Snagged Hi-Fi Rush and Anno: Mutationem on PC for $15.

Seemed like a good deal, considering neither game tends to go very cheap in sales. Both also apparently run well on the Deck.

Tales of Arise, Tormented Souls, and Fields of Mistria on Steam.

The latter surprised me. I NEVER buy Early Access games, generally. But I took one look at the screenshots and fell in love. The game launched with a bunch of content to start, is Steam Deck Verified, has a gorgeous GBA-esque aesthetic with character portraits that look like they belong to Japanese games from the 90s, there's a year-long roadmap for updates and support, and I love the commitment to embracing diversity (can romance everyone as either gender; ton of pronoun options; your character customization isn't gender-locked, so I'm playing as a femboy lol).

Farm sims tend to be hit or miss for me, so I hope I like the gameplay.

Just got Oxenfree II on Switch. The game is on sale for €2 and I had 200 gold points, so I basically got the game for free, which is really cool. I really enjoyed the first game so hopefully the second one will be enjoyable as well.

Just bought my first Xbox game in a while (& my first ever Xbox one game). Following the release of Dead Rising: Deluxe Remaster, I’d been keeping my eye out for a bargain on the others in the series. So after seeing a rare bargain on 2 the other day I picked that and 4 up, only to find out 3 was Xbox exclusive. So although I won’t be able to play it, the idea of having 1, 2 and 4 on the shelf was more than my ocd could take… hence my first Xbox game purchase since little over halfway through the 360 era.

Most recent retro game purchase was a factory sealed and graded 85 copy of Final Fantasy Anthology PS1. It’s a corker!!! I’m just 4 off completing the FF collection factory sealed

the other day in the mail, my AV jack cord replacement for my Gamecube was delivered. Had to get a newer one since the old AV jack cord for my Gamecube was worn out where the wires were sticking out

The only bad thing is that the site I love to order from is located in the UK and I have to wait a month to get my orders because of the customs AND have to play VAT as well

PS: I HATE Brexit! I wonder how many small stores closed because its customers from the EU stopped shopping from the UK.

It is not a purchase, but my cousin gifted me the PS2 of his kid because he was not playing it anymore and it was juts collecting dust. He knew that I am only missing a PS2 from my console collection and today when we were going home from visiting them for Easter, I saw the PS2 and its accessories in the trunk of the car

Now I have all generations of Playstation YEAH!!!

Still, I have to clean it really good as it is really dirty and never been opened

Today I got 2 new additions to my Castlevania collection! Castlevania The New Generation better known as Bloodlines and Super Castlevania 4! Really happy about those 2!

My boyfriend bought me Lunar Remastered Collection on Switch and Baldur's Gate 3 on Steam for my b-day. Guess I'm out of excuses to not play BG3 <3

@Zuljaras Very nice! Hopefully they weren't too expensive.

@Ralizah The only cheap(ish) Castlevania games are the Lords of Shadow series The rest are only getting more and more expensive.

That is why I can't find a normally priced PAL copy of Symphony of the Night (PS1). They start at around 450$ all the way up to 1500$.
