Holy necro post. Any who, since my big post I spent more time then I wanted to got deleted when the dam site 404ed as soon as I hit submit I will post the list here.
Erm, I bought lots of stuff but it's all digital I've bought: Borderlands 2, Icewind Dale, Icewind Dale 2, Baldur's Gate, and Stronghold.
Last physical gaming related this I bought was err... this for $40:
YEAH I actually bought 5 games for it that I should be getting in the mail soon so I'll post those when I get them. Also, I don't have the computer chair that is in the background of that picture anymore. I got so frustrated with it that I switched back to my old one and gave my new one to my dad.

@Wong_Fei_Hung: Are those supposed to resemble a Dreamcast? There are probably way better game-related cufflinks. Sorry man, don't think those are great.

With reference to my old post, here is 4 out of 5 of my new games. The last one (Yoshi's Island) was being shipped from California so it will probably be a few more days still. I got these four about a week ago because I bought them from a small shop in Quebec that I regularly deal with because they ship fast and have decent prices.
Anyway, here's my 4 games, should have waited til daytime to take a picture. It was tough getting a good shot, especially with my questionable phone camera.
YAYSuper Mario RPG cost more than the other 3 combined. Sure I could have played an emulated version of Super Mario RPG, but that would just be wrong. It wasn't cheap but it has been well worth it so far. That game is a ton of fun. I had A Link to The Past on GBA but never finished it so I figured I would play this version instead. This particular cartridge is in immaculate condition (as is Super Mario RPG). I played the hell out of Donkey Kong Country as a kid at my cousin's house but I thought it would be wrong to own a SNES and not own it so I bought a copy and have gone on a massive nostalgia trip a few times. F-Zero I just bought out of curiosity and because it was like 10 bucks and he bundled it in with my other stuff for shipping. I played a couple races and it seems pretty fun. The music is great. I still have a huge list of other SNES games I want to get but these (along with Yoshi's Island) were the ones I wanted most. Next up is Mario Kart, Killer Instinct, the sequels to Donkey Kong Country, Pilot Wings, and perhaps Super Metroid. I find myself having a lot more fun with this stuff than modern games. The only game I've played in the last few months that has engaged me as much as Super Mario RPG is FTL.
In the corner of the picture is my new limited edition Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 32 Ohm headphones. I got them a week ago or so and have been incredibly impressed so far. They have an insane amount of bass but not so much that it detracts from the music. The did a lot of intelligent things with the headphones, like since it is a 32 Ohm version, and thus more likely to be used with iPods and whatnot, they gave it a shorter straight cord rather than the long coiled one that they usually have. They also feel much more sturdy than either of my pairs of Senns. The adjustable part is brushed metal rather than plastic like on my 555s.
