More Swag

    Couldn't resist hunting for a few more retro collections for my handhelds. 

Retro Atari Classics [DS]: I got this for Lunar Lander, but there are ten games here. There's an interesting feature that lets you swap in alternate graphics created by some Graffiti artists.

Intellivision Lives DS: Got this for Sea Battle and Shark! Shark! on the go but there are 60 games here.

Namco Museum DS: Got this for Xevious, Super Xevious and Galaga on the go. There's also a version of Pac-Man Vs. that you can play via DS Download play.

     Both the next PSP games I got miraculously from a Gamestop I was sure had gotten rid of all their PSP stock. I didn't see any in the store, but when I asked, the salesman pulled out a bunch of games waiting to be sent away. That I got both of these games in the box with manuals and all is doubly incredible. Lucky day for me.

Capcom Classics Collection:Remixed PSP: Favorites here would be 1941, Final Fight, and Quiz & Dragons. 

Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded PSP: Got this for 1942, 1943,  and 1943 Kai. Having these for the road is essential.

     All the games in both Remixed and Reloaded have extras you can unlock like history stuff or tweaks to the gameplay.

    All this stuff was $5 or less each except for Namco Museum DS which was like $10 for some reason. I traded in a few old games too, so none of this cost me much. I've got only two more PSP collections to chase down and I'll be finishing Gamestop hopping.

That Atari game with the graffiti graphics is awful.

Namco Museum DS is worth it for Pac-Man Vs. alone.

I thought the Missile Command Graffiti enhanced screen shots looked really cool.MCGraffiti

Nice grabs. When I used to own a PSP, I had CCC: Remixed. I enjoyed that one. I planned to buy Reloaded at some point but that fell through (along with the plan to keep the PSP).

I'm a bit obsessed with the PSP since it's disappearing from Gamestops. I do have one retro game store around to do some more buying for it though.

Galaga is always good.

I can't believe you got both the Capcom collections in one fell swoop! I still need Reloaded. I'm jealous! lol

It was sooo weird. I went to this one Gamestop thinking I was sure they had no PSP games last time I was there. I walked around and saw none on shelves and then, with no hope in my voice, asked the guy there if they had any PSP games. He opens a drawer, I tell him the titles, and he plucks out those two beauties. What luck! The gaming gods looked favorably on me that day.

There's a GameStop close by that, according to their website, has the Reloaded collection in the store. We're gonna swing by tomorrow to see if they do, though I'll only get it if it's complete (like my copy of Remixed). You have inspired me! lol

That's how I do it. Look it up online, then go find the store. Sometimes they don't have the thing, but most of the time they do. Good luck!

Well they had it but it was in a generic case with no manual, so I passed on it Frown But I did get Alpha Protocol (PS3) and Homefront (360) from a 50% off bin. Got both for $7, so I am happy with that purchase Smile

Cool. I put up with no case for EA Replay because it was the only store that had it in my area.

that's a tough choice. those games sound to cheep physically. Yet I'd love to have them all on a memory card for easy access. I must decide soon!

A lot of the games in these collections are available for download on all the consoles and even on the handhelds. Quiz & Dragons and probably a few others aren't though.
