    probably due to many variations of psx models released during its lifetime


  • Registered Users Posts: 351 ✭✭Warren3


    I have been looking out for a virtual boy but am holding out for a better price


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,616 ✭✭✭97i9y3941


    problem with virtual boy is many players complained of sore eyes/headaches due to the monochrome colors,although would be nice to have in the collection since its one of the few if none of one of the only consoles that nintendo pulled the plug on so quickly

    Yeah it is the first one.

    I only sell what I do not really like


  • Registered Users Posts: 848 ✭✭✭armour87


    46 PS3 Games? And no PS2 aswell?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,749 ✭✭✭CCCP^


    I have a full list of what I own, but if I posted it, the extent of my nerdiness would be revealed and I'd lose my esteemed reputation amongst my fellow retro peers :pac:

    I think what really makes a collector (apart from a collection) is an avid interest in the games he or she collects. There is absolutely no point in collecting games so they can sit on a shelf, you have to play them, otherwise it's a waste. And it has to be about games you enjoy, not what critics have said or how rare they are.

    NES - 10
    SNES - 31
    Mega-Drive - 55
    N64 - 15
    Mega-CD - 4
    PS1 - 81
    PS2 - 69
    Dreamcast - 12
    Gamecube - 28
    Xbox - 32
    Gameboy Color - 3
    Gameboy Advance - 9

    Ahaha, it also supports the "G-Factor". Wtf?! No idea what that is (or where it is, geddit? hurhurhur) I have an FC Twin myself. It's a good idea, unfortunately the machine doesn't support the NES Zapper and I think it's only composite out, and it's region locked. I prefer the colour scheme to the red and white one :pac:

    Was that directed to me? Anyways, yeah i do download roms for the DS, but once i get more space I'll start buying the games again. The only game i've burned onto cd is FFVII. Other than that I dont download. And yes i completely agree that having the original is so much better.
