I've gotten a few things in the past week.
First, I got a PS1/2 controller extender cable for $4, and a N64 (Performance brand, the ones with the battery clip inside) N64 controller pak for $5. It's always nice to find those!
Atari 2600
--
The Activision Decathlon - $1, cart only - A quality olympic sports game for the 2600.
3DS DD - on sale
--
Mighty Gunvolt Burst - $7 - Classic-styled Mega Man-ish action. This got good reviews. It's also got six DLC characters, all $2 each, though... I'll probably get a few.
Azure Striker: Gunvolt 2 - $6 - Gunvolt 1 was decent enough, so I should get the sequel...
SubaraCity - $2 - fun puzzle game. It's kind of a spin on Samegame, with some interesting unique mechanics added.
Picross e7 - $4.20 - I actually don't have any of the now seven Picross e games for 3DS, so since this one is on sale I finally fixed that problem. It's great, but I do like 3d Picross a bit more than the traditional 2d ones like this. Still, I like this a lot.
Dillon's Rolling Western: The Last Ranger - $7.70 - The second game in this series.
Pocket Card Jockey - $4.90 - This unique horse racing solitaire game is pretty good! I really liked the demo, so I'm glad to get the full game.
Xbox One DD
--
Forza Horizon DLC - Blizzard Mountain - $8 (on sale) - This is the other content addon for this game, in addition to the Hot Wheels one that I got with the game.
Diablo III DLC - Rise of the Necromancer - $9.74 (on sale) - This is the only DLC addon for the game, Diablo III is good, and it was on sale so I got this.
Xbox 360 DD
--
Alien Hominid HD - $5 (on sale) - I got this for the Wii back when it released and thought it was alright but not as great as I was hoping, but for $5 I guess it's worth trying this HD redo. This graphically enhanced version of Alien Hominid only released on the X360, so it's worth picking up.
Tomb Raider Underworld - This is the current Games with Gold title.
Also the Xbox One GwG subscription titles I added are Back to the Future: The Game - 30th Anniversary Edition and The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III. For the second game, it's weird that the first and third games in that series have been in GwG but not the second one, but that's how it is.
And last and almost certainly least, I got something ... interesting.
For $20, I got none other than a Tiger R-Zone X.P.G. console, fully working, with one game: Batman & Robin. Yes, I'm now living in the R-Zone! And it feels... well, not good, but nor is it the worst thing ever. This game is one part beat 'em up, and one part driving game. Neither is good and the controls are a problem, but with how much negative hype the R-Zone gets, I was wondering if it'd be even worse... but no, it's just a Tiger LCD handheld game, more ambitious than many considering the two play styles, in this consolized handheld LCD system. The controls really are not good but you can play it, once you get used to the controls. I'd kind of like some more games for this thing...
