I've kept all of the equipment and weapons I found so far, I only ever sold junk, you're right though, I'll need quite a few bob to buy every piece of equipment and every weapon available.

I'm done with the Canada part, pretty great throwback to 8/16 bit era if I may say so. The level cap came bit early if you ask me.

My character has 86 friends on facebook, I've collected 26/30 chinpokomon, and 53 pieces of equipment. For the life of me I can't seem to find the last two kindergartens, other than that I've solved every sidequest so far, the ones I triggered that is which I believe are all of them at this point.
