My game collection pictures

Actually, it's quite a wild standard deviation.. I couldn't say an average.. O_O Mostly depends on how much I make and whatever's available.

Yep.. I've been doing that collection for about 2 years now. I was mostly "hardcore" into games and owned only SNES and N64 up until 2001, when I got the Gamecube. Smash Bros Melee got me thinking (about the whole collection thing in the background of the nintendo consoles) that I should complete my Nintendo collection. I eventually went multi-platform when I bought that Game Gear the following March after Gamecube was out (I was mainly disappointed in it's lack of games). I then bought Dreamcast and discovered Shenmue, which lead me to buy Xbox, which had MGS2, which led me to buy PS2. And Genesis and Master System came from friends.

Thanks for your replies.

Edit: Stopped off in mid-section in the first paragraph. O_O;;

w00t! Nice dreamcast man. I loved that thing...I still play mine from time to time. I even grew to love the annoying Disc reading noises.

Nice collection Dyne

Your Gamecube keyboard must have been very pricey and hard to get since there really is no official keyboard.

You should get a Panasonic Q also

I haven't looked at the pictures yet because they'll take too long on this computer, but from the descriptions it sounds like you have a nice collection. I'd like to do some shots of my collection, maybe I can use my mother's digital camera.

nice collection...i would like to do something like that, but the majority of systems i play on belong to my mom so it would kind of be lieing...

PS: looking at the pics got my mom and I to talking about NES and she asked where ours is, I informed her that we haven't been able to find it since the last move so she's going to buy another one... yay

Your mom is into Videogames...thats freaking awsome. My dad used to play NES Open on the NES(Basically the first Mario Golf game), but thats really the only videogame he ever played. And my mom has never played anything really.

nice stuff, man. the PS2 was a key free agent aquisition...it always looks sexy

Thanks guys.

Jason1: It's not too noisy when I put it on carpet, but it's really noisy if you put it on a hard surface. Whenever I play it, I just put it down on the ground. And NES open? I remember a game called just "Golf" and the two golfers look a lot like Mario. I think it's in Animal Crossing. Same game, different name or something?

GM: Mmhmm! And they were discontinued, too. It should be a real rarity. They look so goddamn awesome too.

Germanator: I look forward to seeing your Famicom and Super Famicom.

Jeepnut's Slave: Make sure to buy a working one! Also, just in case, head on over to the Classic Gaming site; I hear they have a great tutorial on how to make your NES work like new. I worked off that one myself.

Perfect Stu: Heck yeah, PS2 is the gaming staple.

And guys, I'm proud to announce, I'm finally the proud father of a Turbo Grafx 16. It's in excellent condition. I bought Bonk, R-Type, and Keith Courage with it. Ah, nostalgia! I love the TG16. I think I'm going to focus my efforts on TG16 Hucards now. There's a whole book at the store I go to.. I thought I'd only buy a few for now. My brother also bought Lost Kingdoms, Wario Warez, the Rebel Strike demo disc, and Sword of Mana. So, add those to what you see there.

My parents play a lot of video games too. Just a few days ago, we played a sweet match of Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, and several rounds of Mario Kart. Heck, they got me into games.

Ooh man, I would kill to play adventures of Bonk once more...I think I sold my Turbo Grafx way back when...
