Well, there is one "nifty upside": when I'm able find a "cheap" and/or rare console game (cheap means "less than 1000+ rubles(~30+$ )", and "rare" means "almost any JRPG/TRPG game") I feel truly happy.
Like times when I'm accidentally stumbled upon Resonance of Fate at some little store, or found a copy of Folklore for "mere" 25$.
Most people here play on PC. Pirated copies of PC games here cost almost nothing and torrent trackers are really popular. Steam holds up pretty well too. Consoles, on the other hand, not very much.
Emulators and ability to mod old consoles is like a saving grace for people like me. Because it means "more great games for little price".Retro stuff here "dies" quckly - there is no more PS2's or Wii's in the shops and very few games for them.
I'm lucky to own all my consoles...and I going to buy some more. There is still a Wii and 3DS left.

Cooking Mama: World Kitchen (for my sister)
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars (I can deal without Hakushon Daimaou)
Sonic and the Black Knight
Muramasa: Demon Blade (asked by a Gamestop Employee to order it online and ship it at home, usually 7-10 days...really a nice guy with easy communication skills!)

Xbox Live deal of the week suckered some cash out of me. :(

Dark Souls £3.74
Tales of Vesperia £6.59
Dungeons and Dragons Chronicles of Mystara £3.29

EDIT:

Final Fantasy VIII £3.59, shame I had to add £5 to my PSN account to get this though. :low:

About a £15-20 game Discworld II I believe, the original is more valuable though, as is Noir. But still a nice find for a local shop! :)

Ice Climbers (CIB)
Baseball (CIB)
Duck Hunt (CIB)
Duck Hunt (CIB)
Super Mario Bros. (CIB)
10-Yard Fight (CIB)
Double Dribble (CIB)
Gyromite (box)
Donkey Kong Jr. Math (cart)

$140 + shipping. :] Bought it through NA, got it all sorted out with the seller last night. Super stoked -- it'll make a bit larger of a dent in my black box collection, and give me some decent trade/sale fodder (I'll have 3 copies of Duck Hunt CIB after this :whistle: )

[ edit ]

Iron Tank (CB)
Metal Gear (CB)
Rescue: The Embassy Mission (CB)
Robocop 2 (CB)
Vindicators (CB)

$25 + $20 shipping (f'ing Canada :fist: ). One duplicate in there (I already have Rescue:TEM). Everything is in good condition, although definitely not great.

Got a copy of Muramasa: The Demon Blade last night. I had to get the mail in the middle of the night :wacko:

Ooh! My daughter just got Pokémon Y today and I'm so in love with it that...I may hafta get one for myself. ^_^ She picked Froakie as her starter and she's in Santalune City. We love all the new features and it's such a gorgeous game, she's already caught a very cool bunch of pokemon

Spent some money on the latest Xbox Live deal of the week. :dread:

Moon Diver £4.99
RAW (Realms of Ancient War) £3.37
Shank 2 £1.68
Blood Knights £5.99

I sold a couple of games to a friend for £7 though, so only spent £9 of my own money really.

EDIT:

PS+ made me buy the Metro Last Light Season Pass for £3, but to do so I had to add £5 to my wallet. I only needed 60p. :low:

So I bought Sonic 2 as well.
