The Small Scores Thread: Part 4!

@Addicted - actually, it's this thing:

http://dc-sd.com/p/1/drea...r-dreamcast-sd-cardreader

And it uses a SD card. It could be my card, as a YouTube review I saw of another DC SD reader mentioned that high capacity cards can be flaky, and that 8GB is usually the largest card recommend for use. I haven't tried that yet, because I don't have a working card reader at home, and need to take what I have back to the office and get the files copied to an 8 GB card instead. Maybe tomorrow...

The makers of these type of devices aren't kidding with their SD card requirements.  When I got my Everdrive N8, none of the cards I owned worked.  I went out and bought one that matched the maker's recommendations, and ever since it's worked a treat.

Hey all here is the Pre-Orders - Purcahses, etc.  Bulking up my Vita Collection and of course my brother wanted LEGO Dimensions stuff :-)  Also got some new Amiibos that were released and a Shulk the last one covered in a little dust from ToysRus.

Also a couple of things came from the BAY.

The Bayonetta's are the second press - BLAH - So i took the Gamestop one back that was "GameStop New" Sealed and I will be picking up a copy of the First Release tomorrow for less than half of what it is going for on eBay.

The Pokken Cell Art is a Toysrus Exclusive I believe.

Got some fun stuff since last I posted:

First is that crazy linoleum floor. Next is Dragon Age Inquisition which I plan to play immediately and Tales of Zestiria from Gamefly. Then I got OMG a NEZZZZZZ game Maniac Mansion (and Fairy Fencer F) from 99gamers. INB4 "Hey nice Maniac Mansion GrayGhost!" Anyway lastly and most importantly it's been a while but I grabbed a few Japanesey titles from my man Silver80 in Conception II and Soul Hackers. Love ya man!!!!

@mumboking: It's always cool when you find a goody in the cheap bin.

@GrayGhost: I haven't played more than an hour of Inquisition. The crazy item scan thing turned me off. Let me know if I should give it another shot.

They were in the window of Cash Converters.
Right next to them was an overpriced Mega Drive (~£30). It didn't even look like it had controllers or cables, although I suppose they could be in a bag together, as they do with other consoles (not sold separately though).

So what in the world is a J-Cart?  European only?

Got this in a trade on Facebook.

Metalfro was so nice to do a little shopping for me. (Photobucket sucks for hosting.  I'm sick of their shitty website that doesn't do what I tell it to do, hence the shitty picture.)

It's a type of cartridge by Codemasters that has two controller ports built into it.

It's essentially this, except in a cartridge:

[shaggy]

Gotcha both.

[Crabmaster2000]

Nice grab on Last Ninja Shaggy, that one can be a bit of a pain to track down.

Looking at my last 3 weeks of pickups, it looks like I'm in an RPG kind of mood:

Thanks. I'll have to give my 8 GB card a try then.

Some sweet pickups, everyone! Aside from the eBay score I posted in that thread, this is what showed up in my mailbox yesterday:

Got these from a collectors Facebook group. Paid a little more than I wanted to, but I haven't seen either in the wild for some time, so I figured why not.
