Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Boost Course Pass
My monies did not need to take a hit for this today as I had already prepared my eShop wallet with more than enough to buy this. Let's go!

Hori PS5 Fighting Commander OCTA Controller
Yeah I felt like I needed a new controller, and yes it's mainly for Tekken 8 as I felt the Dual Sense isn't as good as DS4 but I still would've wanted to try this anyway. I saw this Hori controller floating about in places so decided to look it up, does look slightly weird having an R1 and R2 next to Triangle and Circle, similar to how an arcade stick would be with 6 buttons and still has an R1 and R2 shoulder buttons as well (possibly named something else or the same). My controller hopefully arrives on the 30th next Sunday which would be good to test out for CNT but if not it has a PS4/PC setting on the back to play on those as well, so I can try it on Tekken 7 too.

I might be wrong but I'm sure there are PS5 games that can use a DS4, but those might be games that are cross-gen or just PS4 games being run on a PS5.

Hori makes some great third-party controllers. I imagine you'll have a good time with it provided you can get used to the 6-face button layout

Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition (PS5 Physical) - $39.99
Always hesitate when this goes on sale and decided to just bite the bullet and get it because I doubt it'll go cheaper than this for a while and it's still good value for money with the amount of content this comes with.

The "Luxury Party" stuff pack for The Sims 4.
I got it mostly for my RPG character profiles

PlayStation Plus Essential, like in last half hour of the 5th I bought before the 6th hit on Amazon so I have the email and code ready for when I want to redeem it.
Haven't pre-ordered Tekken 8 yet, I need a certain something to be confirmed before I do. I'll get the Launch Edition when it does.

Railgrade
A train-based game, that @Moonface told me about. It only came out today, so there aren't yet enough reviews for me to know how good or bad it is - but since it's my birthday, I decided to get it for myself as a present regardless.
I'll have to let you guys know what it's like!

I'm about to pickup Monster Truck Championship on the PS5 as it's on sale for only 8 dollars on PSN.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder (NS)
Grabbed a copy from GameStop on my way home from class since this was my planned birthday gift for @ShiraNoMai. I think one of the people behind the counter was a manager because holy heck they were going hard on trying to get people to pay for extra stuff like game protection and Pro membership. I opted for none of it and got told I'm a brave man for not wanting protection on my purchase as if Switch games just have a tendency of breaking.

This keyboad from Newegg
No, I didn't need yet another keyboard. Yes, I only bought it because it's normally priced at $110 and it's on sale for $30. My curiosity to see what it was like got the better of me for such a low price. KEKW
At least it has blue switches so it'll be super clicky and will satisfy my ears while I type on it.
RE: Latest Gaming Purchase - Moonface - Oct 23rd, 2023
Oh wow that's a really good deal and not a bad price to pay if it turns out it isn't really for you. Looks like you grabbed it in time too since when I looked at the page just now it says the item is out of stock.

Tekken 8 - Launch Edition (PS5)
Nyeh, got my order in. Was considering Ultimate Edition and Premium because why get the statue that doesn't light up, but then yeah the Ultimate gets the 1 Year Character Pass, but I assume you can get that as a bundle separately (the 4 characters), and that won't cost £40 surely (£60 for Launch £100 for Ultimate). If they dare to make us pay for them individually then I won't buy them, I don't care for the rest of the Ultimate. Premium did have some neat stuff with the Character Cards and statue but...it'll just be another large box in my room.

Persona 3 Portable (PS4 physical copy through Limited Run Games)
Cobalt Blue DualSense Controller
Several places have DualSense controllers on sale for $49.99 for pre-Black Friday sales, and it includes the new colors, so figured it was as good a time as any to pick up that new gorgeous blue controller.
