Cool! So do you have any projects in mind at this time? If so, what are they?

Nothing very specific at this point. Right now I'm just playing around with serial input and testing circuits.

For my term project, I intend to write a simple text-based game (like Zork). I might go the extra mile and make it run on my microcontroller. I could use a row of LEDs for health, and some buttons for simple input. I would have to simplify it to deal with the inability to type commands like "go west".

What I received this week, more anime.

I'm jealous of that Digimon dvd. First season is the best season.

Bought a case for my iPhone 5, finally. Following Jack's ideology, I decided to try getting a pouch, instead of a traditional shell. I ended up with a wool felt pouch that has a leather strap. It was cheap ($10 on amazon), and seemed like what I wanted. It'll be here Wednesday.

$20 eShop card saving for either Crashmo or half of Sticker Star. We'll see in the coming weeks!

Wife bought me a camera from a Garage sale website. Nothing high-tech like Jack's or anything, just a point and shoot 14 MP Fujifilm. I had had lost my older point and shoot at the Wii U Experience in July.

Moonrise Kingdom on Bluray
Assassin's Creed III
Need for Speed Most Wanted
The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook

Picked up quite a bit today


The Durarara Blu Ray set the one with the poster an lunchbox was $150, best anime set thus purchased. And so excited to have a vita now.

Black Ops 2 pre order (WiiU)
Metroid Prime Trilogy

Got Ragnarok Odyssey on Vita yesterday. Also, my phone case arrived!

Just ordered this Power Rangers Megaforce Hot Wheels playset on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009F7OW0I/

Normally, I wouldn't get this type of thing. However, I believe I can make back the money with ads on my YouTube videos when I put up a review. And this is very special because, as long as no one beats me to the punch in the next few days... I will be the first person ever to have a review of Power Rangers Megaforce (the 20th anniversary) merchandise on the internet. So that's pretty exciting, looking forward to it! Should arrive on Thursday.

Whoa, sorry for you losing your camera dude, how'd you do that at the U experience?

My Super Robot Chogokin Daizyujin arrived!

Super Robot Chogokin is a line of models/figures for collectors of Megazords from Super Sentai, what Power Rangers is based off of. And Daizyujin is the Mighty Morphin Megazord. So this is the classic one everyone knows. It's pretty sweet looking and I love it, check out my video review...

Wow, sick figure dude. MMPR zords were bada$$ up there with Transformers.

Got a mickey shirt, that is mickey in a pixelated form (picture to come later). Also a food and wine shirt. Also got a wreck it ralph disney pin and a pirates pin ( I collect and trade disney pins, wont be trading these).

Got more anime, manga, and a ps vita game.

Ah, Heroman! I started watching that over the summer, but dropped it for other shows. The animation is pretty slick. Have you watched the anime?

I am officially the FIRST PERSON IN THE WORLD to review any merchandise from the upcoming Power Rangers Megaforce, the 20th Anniversary season. Got this Hot Wheels playset today:


I love being the first one to have info!

Missed this apparently. Well I had it in my pocket that was already jammed packed with my cell, ipod touch, keys and camera case, so I imagine it wasnt anywhere near the bottom, so when I was either playing wii u on the couch (nintendo land) or when I left to go eat afterwards via a cab is when I realized it was gone. I had called the restaurant, and emailed the wii u site and neither had a found camera. So it was either found and kept by someone, or it was lost in the cab. Thankfully it only had wii u photos on it and not a vacation or personal photos.

I think this picture says it all:



Now, if only there existed such a system to play it on...

Hmm....

Why are you posting random game pictures?

Greg posted AC3, which he just bought for Wii U. I posted Batman for Wii U because I got a review copy last night.

Yes, it is a "recent purchase thread" so I purchased it, it was at my Gamestop on 11/13, but I picked it up yesterday instead of waiting until Sunday.

How did you pick it up yesterday? I thought you could not pick them up until Sunday.
