Share your pickup loot and finds

Haven't had a lot of money to spare to go game shopping with, so all I've bought recently was Destroy All Humans for the PS4, the Limited Run remake of the original PS2 version. And from Amazon I received Gal Gun 2 and Curse of the Sea Rats for PS4.

A couple days ago I went to several stores and found virtually nothing other than that Destroy All Humans, but one thing did stand out - a Half Price Books had an Arcade 1Up Atari Couchcade. It's a plug-and-play console that sits on your lap (with a cushion on the bottom) and plays a bunch of Atari arcade games that are primarily trackball and spinner based. It seems to go for around $200 online but this one was only $99. I couldn't justify the money for it, and I wanted to research it first. I already have a tabletop Arcade 1Up Atari Asteroids unit with almost all of the games the Couchcade has in it already, so I'm glad I didn't act on impulse and buy something I couldn't afford to splurge on that I can already play.

I had to force myself out of the house to do something with my Saturday - I took a vacation week but after paying a bunch of bills haven't had too much money to go shopping. I decided to go to the Dallas headquarters of Half Price Books, and they didn't have anything. Down the street was the headquarters of the Movie Trading Company, so I went there and bought a boxed Tiger Electronics Rocket Pinball and Sengoku Musou Z3 for the Playstation 3. I was really happy about that Rocket Pinball, always wanted one back in the day. It naturally has corroded battery terminals, of course.

Stopped at a GameStop yesterday, picked up Ghost Song and Mozart Requiem for the PS4. Mozart Requiem looks weird, you play Mozart in a murder mystery in a reproduced 1788 Prague. It was only $7, so I had to pick it up. Also, I ordered Gungrave: G.O.R.E. for the PS4 off Amazon.
