lol, why have ya got six

97i9y3941

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

Warren3

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

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

97i9y3941

if you have the first suikoden,hold onto that,it can sell for €50++ on ebay/amazon

Warren3

Yeah it is the first one.

I only sell what I do not really like

armour87

46 PS3 Games? And no PS2 aswell?

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.

SNES - 31

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:

appleidog

is that your one, it looks really cool.

Dark Savior

Wow,that looks great.Does it play european Snes games too?

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.

appleidog

Nice collection there atavan,start slow and then start hoardin that is the trick.


But the sad news is one of my saturn':eek:s died on me Yesterday oh well, im on course to buy a panasonic gamecube

Atavan-Halen

Thanks, yeah thats what i plan on doing

sorry about the saturn but at least you have another one

CCCP^

Dark Savior wrote: »

No, it's region locked. You'd need an adapter, which are handy to pickup. Bummer is it's an NTSC signal so I need to a new TV or a signal converter

Yeah, but its always sad to see one go .

Btw you wanna go Charity hunting again soon it seems that its spring now and would be less cold!. cause last time i thought i was going to be turned into a ice cube.


To CCCP i suggest getting a new tv.

97i9y3941

Wicked. yeah earlier the better. Hopefully we find more then a Gba School pencil case this time.

It freezes when i put a disc in. i've tried it with several Games and audio cds to the same effect.

97i9y3941

if i was in the same situation,could buy a motherboard,although the cost and postage would probably work out more than buying a new saturn,theres a support board here,give it a try

I'm never giving up that TV. It holds alot of sentimental value :pac:

Who said ya had to get rid of it just buy a new one and dont use the old one.

1080p Wipeout HD on a 42 inch plasma will change anyones mind

@ciderman-great to see someone else besides me who owns an CD32!

CiDeRmAn

Yup, it's been a gaping hole in my collection for too long, and my brother obliged for Christmas, not bad at all.

97i9y3941

had some great games the cd32 did,i think the lack of ram killed it do

Retr0gamer

Fred83 wrote: »

I think the main problem was that it was just an Amiga 1200 with a CD drive. You could get a 1200 for slightly more with a hard disc and you would have had a machine with the same games, same power and had a decent personel computer to boot.

97i9y3941

A1200 cheaper to upgrade aswell,you can still get ram for it easy enough,although the accelorators are dear enough these days
