Splatterhouse: Wanpaku Graffiti and The Japanese guide for Super Castlevania IV (no pics yet, sorry) (http://www.forumplanet.com/classicgaming/castlevania/topic.asp?fid=3691&tid=1806434), both from 16-bit.

I've also finally got a chunk of money which NFGman will be seeing part of (probably most of it!)

Awesome pic Cauterize, I didn't know the PAL DS games came in clear cases...

As for me, I got a Sony Mp3 Walkman "Pysc" with 512MB. Ironically came with software called "SONICSTAGE"....and the MP3 is in a lovely blue color....Sega ironic or just asking for 60 Sonic songs?? You be the judge ;)

So that's 60 Sonic remixes...and originals....which means...I have room for 285 more songs lmao

I never had an MP3 player before, so this is a trip to me!

Also got a $50 gift card to Best Buy, a Carona T-Shirt, Socks, and a Remington Electric Shaver :)

I still gots more presents to open, but so far I've gotten a pretty good haul...

-Urban Yeti (GBA, MINT, sadly game only :( )

-PS2 black mem. card

-Fantavision (PS2, complete, NOT re-realesed version! ;))

Oh, and I got a bunch of misc. stuff; peel-on tatoos (really cool!!!), candy, a new, rather cheap bath robe w/ slippers, etc; but the one that really takes the cake, (besides the gaming stuff), is a D&D basic game set, plus ALL THREE RULEBOOKS!!! (okay, so I already had the monster manual vr.3.0, but the others were honest to goodness, straight out-of storage, vr.3.5 guides!!! :D :D :D :D :D)

-thanks santa!

I got a bunch of cool stuff that I had asked for - but shan't list here 'cause they're not really videogame related.

However...


Many of you know that the highlight of my videogame collection is a gallery of animated cels from cartoons based on videogames. (Pac-Man, Dragon's Lair, Sonic, etc. Click HERE (http://videogamecollectors.com/gallery/sniderman) to see what I have on the walls.)

Well, there are cels from two cartoons that have eluded me. But my wife, bless her heart, somehow tracked them down and they were waiting under the tree for me. I present:

http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/gameagain/zeldacaptn.jpg
Cels from The Legend of Zelda cartoon (complete with hand-painted background) and Captain N: The Gamemaster (with Gameboy in the background!).

These will be framed and hung in a place of honor this afternoon. :D
