What You Bought This Week - 2022 Edition

Quite a lot of purchases over the last 2-3 months. Sold off my 3DS XLs (multiple), one of the PS Vita, and a Wii U that I owned since I realized I am not going to get time to play them. Then decided to put the money into buying more games and stuff for which I may not have enough time for. :fear1: I know it's paradoxical, but I've accepted that about myself :sadbye:

1. PC upgrade

The first major upgrade is the PC. Sold my Gigabyte RTX 2070 Super, Antec EAG 650W and purchased the following:
- Corsair RM850 PSU
- Gigabyte RTX 3080 Gaming OC 12GB

- Western Digital 850 1TB
- APC 2000VA UPS

 

Edit: I also swapped out the cooler fan on my CM Hyper 212 with a Noctua NF-F12.

2. Nintendo Switch games & accessories

Then went on to make a ton of purchases for the Switch.

Physical Games:
- Metroid Dread
- Pokemon Arceus
- Animal Crossing

- Luigi's Mansion 3

- Xenoblade Chronicles 2

- Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Furty

- Kirby and the Forgotten Land

- Astral Chain

- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Digital Games:
- Witcher 3 with DLC

- Hades

- Ni No Kuni - Wrath of the White Witch

- Hollow Knight

Also got the Spigen Armored case + Spigen Grip for the NSW OLED. 

3. New TV and changes to the working space | Samsung QN90B 50

To do justice to the PC, finally got a dedicated setup for my personal PC. I use to have both my work and office PC on the same desk and I was unable to get over my mind block to relax in the same space / user the same desk and monitor.
Far from idea, but decided to get a Samsung QN90B 50 inch TV and mount it on the opposite wall. Moved the PS5 to the same space as well.  

- Got a simple table mate kind / portal table on which I use a basic wireless Logitech Keyboard and Mouse for now. The eventual plan is to get a 60 keys wireless mechanical keyboard and a decent wireless mouse. I don't play a lot using KB + Mouse - so may skip this entirely.

I like your setup especially how you secured the cables of you TV. Gotta tidy up my 55 inch Samsung TV cables like this.

 

I bet all of this new stuff might have cost you about $5,500. INR 4 lacs.

26 carts here. :fear1:


It feels more satisfying to collect Switch games than PS or Xbox. PS games rapidly fall in value, whereas Switch game prices stay put for ages ?

 

I am hovering somewhere around the 18 mark. Will get to 25+ hopefully soon

Congrats man. I am so jealous. My deck is sitting in the US since last month. Waiting for my friend to come back to India.

Got TCL C825 Mini Led 55" for 1150 AUD (65K INR) for bedroom. Fantastic quality, especially for the price. It is no OLED, but close to it. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a tv here and can get it for 80-85k. Comes with an in-built sound bar. Sound quality is really really good. Also comes with a camera (removable) which can be used for video calls

PC, Xbox, PlayStation, Quest 2 VR …. Now, this feels like the natural full circle (since Steam Deck is out of reach) …. Nintendo Switch OLED, my first ever Nintendo product. I have had Sega Mega Drive II and Atari system back in late 80s/early 90s (I’m 84 born), but never had any Nintendo console. This feels differently special.

I am in the process of buying a new 12th gen laptop for work/office in a day or two.  I will update with pics when bought. 

 

There seems to be a great shortage of laptops. The seller whom I talked to said only one unit is left.

 

Most sellers are out of stock quickly once a new laptop is released.

It's a really beautiful book, and my shitty photos don't do it justice.

So here's a video that presents it properly.

 

 

How much and from where
