    And only a couple of months of collecting too, who knows how much stuff he'll have by years end!
    He'll need asbestos gloves to pick up his credit card!

    My collection is a bit tidier now. Might take some pictures when I get my hands on a camera and the parents are out of the house and don't think I'm crazy.

    Once my girlfriend came home while I had 150+ Megadrive games on the floor in a row, about to take photos.

    You know that look someone gives you when they genuinely think you've lost the plot?

    Yeah, I think the good woman gave me that look about 0.00000001 microseconds after I proposed to her.

    Don't worry, I get that all the time!
    Along with threats to slag the lot in a fire, the next time I tumble dry her woolen clothes or something.. :(

    This is just what I have set up, at the moment. I have various other bits that I don't quite have the room to display just yet (2 fat PS2's, one with a HDD attached. Fat PS1. Atari 2600. etc.)

    Most games are all packed away awaiting some shelving above where this set up is so, they won't be coming out for a little while.

    Very tidy indeed! N64 looks well on top of a 3DO. Might be able to fool some into thinking it's a 64DD :D

    That an Akai sampler under your TV? Nice bit of kit. Great pics, especially the boxed NTSC-J Virtual Boy.

    Yeah s3000, just got rid of my S950 to a friend who would actually re-use it, the guilt was killing me using it as a TV stand, he is in for a world of pain :)

    Sounds like the 3DS part II. With each passing day I think the 3DS is looking more and more like a flop.

    I recently got to try one out properly (last time was in HMV on Grafton Street at launch) and after spending a good deal of time fiddling with it, I still didn't like it.

    It just doesn't seem like enough of an update and the 3D effect isn't that impressive, in fact I found it bordering between good to downright irritating. I think Nintendo needs to cut it's DS apron strings and release a bold, all-new handheld design and soon. The Vita might just steal Nintendo's thunder if the 3DS ends up a failure.

    I'd settle for some games for it, the 3DS is starting to feel like the handheld that time forgot.
