Game Systems

I must admit that I have a weak spot for gaming systems. I love playing them, I love looking at them, but I especially love looking at them when they are fancy editions. "What does that even mean?" you ask? I'm glad you asked, invisible person.

I ordered two special edition gaming consoles this month. One of them was a limited edition from a while ago, and another is a limited edition that comes out on November 22.

The first one is an Xbox 360 that came out last year. I realized that I needed more hard drive space in my Xbox, and started looking for a new hard drive, when I discovered the R2D2 Xbox. It has a 320 gigabyte hard drive, looks like R2D2, makes R2D2 noises, a C3P0 controller, a white kinect, and a Star Wars game.

That's right, it makes R2D2 bleeps and bloops!

The other gaming system comes out on November 22nd. I had wanted to trade Pokemon with myself, and the new Legend of Zelda game comes out for Nintendo 3DS, so it is Zelda-themed. It comes with a copy of the new game (electronic download, not physical copy), and is gold. Even the face is gold. It shines.

Shiny!

Now, while these are both merely pictures of the boxes, my excitement for both is immense.

We will be able to put my first Xbox 360 in the living room, which will look good in that room and enable us to move our DVD player from the living room will move to the bedroom. We haven't been able to watch DVDs in our bedroom without shuffling a DVD player between rooms. The new R2D2 Xbox 360 will go in the study!

The Legend of Zelda 3DS XL and my old 3DS XL will still both be used. I will have different save data and games on each, so both will still be used.

This is why I've been saving my spending money up for a couple months. Worth every penny!
