I'm posting this from my phone... chances are the pictures are going to be massive so I apologize in advance!
my box came in like 2 weeks ago I think, and I put it underneath the tree in the back. Out of sight, out of mind. The only way to resist.
on Christmas Day (yesterday), I opened the box to find a card, some wrapped gifts, and a glitter explosion (my wife yelled about that ?).
A nice message in the card.
Everything taken out of the box!
First up is delicious candy! The smaller box has been depleted. Possibly by the same elves who devour vanilla wafers. ?
My daughter claimed the NOEL necklace.
Two very interesting books, 2 fishing derby pins, and some Christmas pins too!
A freaking SEALED SNES TITLE and Burgertime mini arcade!
i will call these "Moshi and Yario" brick puzzles for copyright reasons!
A new DIY Atari 2600 game! This one's designed like old static-image LCD handheld games, which I love and collect. Perfect choice!
minion PEZ and "It's Ma'am E.T." ?
mushroom kingdom goodies. Didn't see any red shells to equip my car but the Star and mushroom will surely rocket me back to 1st!!
Activision YOU SUCK! A keychain and a patch. Hilarious. Took me about 30 seconds to figure out that the light bulb shaped card was indeed an LED light, illuminating the Atari logo in green!
The turtle testicles. This was perfect. Long story short, almost 20 years ago my veterinarian sister in law showed me cat balls in a jar. It scarred me. When's she came over I got my revenge. ?
Two Jaguar-branded pens. I never owned the system but I always liked the logo, and my younger daughter found one and drew all over herself. Wife Yell #2 ??
Giant wall stickers!
A frame-deserving poster of 2600 PAC-MAN!
This was such a fun box!! Thank you Secret Santa!!

I've received my box in the mail a few days ago and I have it sitting under the tree out of my sight so I don't get tempted. Chances are, I'm not going to make it to the 25th.
For my outgoing package, it should be in route by Friday.
And I need to watch Die Hard. I've NEVER SEEN IT. I'm sure between Netflix/Hulu/Amazon, it's on one of those!

I can't read the main post because I use the Deflection theme (dark grey background)....but count me in as per usual.

That Radio Shack Pinball Master is such a cool little BreakOut clone from its time. I have one. Track down the Space Shooter game too. Or get the blue 6-in-1 that combines both in one device!

I successfully waited until Christmas Day to open my three wrapped gifts, and man are these awesome!!
I'm going to be pumping these compilation discs through my Mega Man speaker (holy carp!) while sporting my new shirt and chomping the candies.
Thanks "secret" Santa (you gave yourself away a few posts ago)! Sorry I sent you on a wild goose chase! Merry. Christmas!

There was once an impatient me with a single box under the tree.
I decided to sneak and open the box to have a pre-Christmas peek.
Inside I saw of treats while other items were hidden from me.
So with much hustle I opened up a candy bar like a fat ass and went to town. Nom nom.
Part II coming 12/25... ??

I didn't get a package yet. I was super late to the game but I know my recipient got his, as evident in this thread.

I spent a lot of time with Mario Kart Wii, especially the online mode with a buddy from Canada. We also played Battallion Wars 2, Worms (some subtitle, no the Space Odyssey but the other one), the Excitebike remake, and some other crap.
As for regular single play gaming, I loved that budget Centipede title, the two Kirby games, the Klonoa remake, and I bought CraterMaze on VC and loved that too. Oh the Gradius remake on VC... There's a bunch of stuff I'm forgetting. I'll have to go look at what I have.

Gasoline.

I had to sideline BMZero for a DS game called Diamond Trust of London, which came in the mail the other day and just had to play it. It's the first and only DS game that was Kickstarted funded, programmed by one guy.
That RPG sounds fun. I will look into it. I also have Rime, Street Fighter II: The Final Warrioirs, andC ave Story+ on preorder!

Soooooo, a page or so back I posted I bought a defective console. I brought it back to Best Buy and they studied the console from all angles before swapping it out with a new one.
Got home and it works flawlessly like it's supposed to for $300+, and now I'm 2 hours into Blaster Master Zero, totally worth $10 on the eShop. I still have to bust out Zelda, Mario Kart, and Bomberman which are all still sealed.

That black and green one is the hotness. But, I really do not need a 5th DS-family console in this house for just me.

I'm standing in line now with 15 people ahead of me. Half excited, half worried, all late to work.

Standing in line 15 deep outside of Best Buy. Today is the day. Either I get one or I'm F'd.

Looking for a new sealed in box. Not willing to pay more than MSRP of $59.99 (or $65.39 w tax), plus an actual shipping cost.
Pipe dreams, I know. But it never hurts to ask. Maybe a fellow AA member is hoarding them and is feeling generous. Or guilty. ☺

Shit... y'all started waaaay early this year. This will be the first time I've missed out since probably the beginning. Bah humbug.
