    That's good! I remember when i got a copy of Descent for the PS1 sealed. The game was sealed for 12 years.

    I'm sure I've got some sealed games that I bought in the past and forgot all about but as a rule, anything I buy will be played on :)

    Is that for playing SNES games on a SFC or vice versa?

    Same here. Though I very rarely buy sealed games anyway (unless it's in the wild they're like twice the price of a complete copy), I have no problem ripping one open to play.

    I don't like opening games that survived so many years unopened with a limited supply of brand-new copies left in the world. I'd rather keep/sell it and get another open copy for playing... which is what I do. Accidentally through buying bargains or bundles I accumulated a large number of sealed games, but I won't open them ever.

    Yep :) it is a Pebble Time Steel, the successor to the Pebble watch that came out a few years ago (that had b&w screen).

    This one has a color screen, a few sensors (pedometer, etc.), and 10 days battery life. Came out of Kickstarter just like the previous one. Cool watch, specially handy to manage my 6" Lenovo phone (oh... the humanity... a watch to control the phone).

    On a more serious note, user experience is superb, very easy to use, and can reply to text messages/whatsapp/etc., via canned responses / emoji / speech-to-text. And can also link my work iPhone to it for e-mail/call/message notifications.

    Sounds like a cool bit of kit. Actually, using a watch to control a phone is very useful. I walk home for 30 minutes from the train station every day while listening to music. In the past I had to either walk holding my phone or keep taking it out of my pocket every time I wanted to change a music track or change the volume. Now I can just keep it in my pocket and do all the track and volume changes with a simple swipe and press on my watch. It's like magic :) It's also handy to see notifications and mails without having to take the phone out of my pocket. The watch will vibrate if a mail or notification comes.

    Exactly, some people think it's overkill, but I think it's a great nifty feature. I find it very convenient for music control as well, considering my Lenovo phone is huge at 6" (big mistake, waiting for the Nexus 5 2nd gen to come out...).

    A bit odd for me, a few PlayStation games. I found a box of 80 discs in my lock up. Mostly crap or common shit like Tekken 1 to 3, bio Hazard and so on. But I have decided to keep three games.

    Tomba, Critical blow and Clayman 2(can't remember the English name)

    the english name for claymen 2 is skullmonkeys in both NA/EU. I have very good memories of that game. Funny enough I just got my package of getting claymen 1 for the JP ps1 lol. Since here in NA we did not have a ps1 release, but PC only release.

    Critical Blow is the sequel of Shadow Struggle. So if you enjoy it, also check the previous game.
    By the way, Tomba is such an funny game.

    PS: Could you PM me the names of the others games in the box? Even if it's common stuff, there might be something i wouldn't mind getting for my collection.

    ah yes, Skull Monkeys. That's the one. I remember people having good things to say about it back in the day. It looks pretty nice running on my PS2 via the Framemister.

    Surprisingly Critical Blow is pretty good. Never heard of it or the previous game before.

    About the box of PS games. I've now put them on to Yahoo Auctions :( here's the link if you want to take a look http://page17.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/v431954174

    I remember playing them back in the day, when ps1 bootlegs were all over the place. Definately good games, never understood why it wasn't released here in the west.

    I would be interested on some of those yes, but don't worry. Just checked the currency, 1 Dollar now is 4,05 Reais. I guess shipping alone would really hurt. :confused:

    I saw Claymen Gun Hockey a lot while in Japan, costs only $1 or $2. It's not a good game at all though from what I've seen. The polygon graphics look very basic and whatever clay sprites are left are simply recycled from The Neverhood aka Claymen Claymen. The main gameplay is sort of a 1st-person air hockey in early PS1-style polygonal visuals, very disappointing actually. I'm glad I got Claymen Claymen in Japan though, only cost me a buck or so. Claymen 2 is a bit rarer and more expensive, still looking for it.
