Due to
overwhelming demand, a vain attempt to make this forum seem active, and because it's
my blasted website, I shall now bore everyone with images of my video game collection.
Bwa ha ha ha...The primary game shelf! Details below.
My NES games! As of this post I have 108 (a few more are on the bottom shelf). 65 of them are my "definite keepers" shown here stacked horizontally. The ones turned on the side are from a recent Ebay lot I haven't gotten around to cleaning/testing yet. The duplicates and
utter rubbish go on the bottom shelf. ;)
SNES games (right) and my paltry Genesis and Nintendo 64 collections. Super Nintendo is my favorite system. :) I have 58 of those, the 39 keepers shown here.
Bunch of empty game boxes and my Atari cartidges on the right. Most of them are 2600 games except for a few 7800's. Most of the Atari 2600 games I picked up for 50 cents or less. ;) Adventure, Breakout, Indy 500, and Combat are all awesome.
Blargh. The crap shelf. Well not totally, as duplicate games also go here and I have a few good ones. This is stuff I'll get rid of eventually to make room for better stuff. ;)
My disc based game collection. There's room for more, obviously. ;) These are newer games of course, so I'm not quite up to speed with them yet. The top two shelves are Playstation games, which I've really grown an affinity for in the past two years. Below that we have my tiny Dreamcast collection (plus a few CD-Rs... shhhh... ;) ) Then of course my Playstation 2 and Gamecube games.
The TV and console set up! Television is used
strictly for video games in my house mind you. ;)
Here are the consoles lucky enough to live in the entertainment center thing. Their positioning doesn't imply favoritism-- just the right size and cable connector locations. ;)
From top left to bottom right, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Playstation 2, Gamecube (with Game Boy Advance player thing), and Dreamcast. And yes, these are all hooked to the TV at once via my handy (daisy-chained) switchboxes. ;)
To the right of the television! Details below.
The remaining three consoles and the ye olde VCR that hasn't been used in 5 years. Nintendo 64, Nintendo Entertainment System, and the thing on the right is an Atari 7800 (which also plays 2600 games).
Nintendo Power magazines! I have about 140 of them. I canceled my subscription way back when they were moving from the Nintendo 64 to the Gamecube era. I didn't get a Gamecube until last year so it was kinda pointless to continue. ;)
Here we can see my framed conglomeration of Nintendo Power posters and treasure chest. :)
Keep all my controllers in easy to reach bins. ;)
The treasure chest opens! After the blinding golden light subsides, one can see it's just a bunch of AC adapters and extra controllers and junk. ;)
I've another treasure chest next to the couch! Which is handy for placing my drink and veggie snack dish on during gaming sessions. It actually isn't that dirty-- the flash made it seem that way. You should believe what I am telling you and not what you see.
Nice sweeping view of the setup. That's my 17" laptop in which I make the comic on, by the way. Although I do
real work in
bed and not in the gaming room, of course. ;)
The second chest opens! That's the left over innards of PS2s back from when I was buying broken ones and attempting to fix them. We also have a Sega 32x add-on, an Atari 2600 Jr. (retired since I got my 7800) and a model 1 Sega Genesis, which really looks a whole lot cooler than the model 2 I have hooked up.
The six NES Mega Man games! I love these, especially 2 and 3. I got all of them in my childhood except for number 5, which was a recent ebay purchase to complete the set. :)
Final Fantasy games! Final Fantasy 3 on the SNES is my favorite game of all time, followed by number 2. :) Don't have any newer than number 9 yet.
Game Boys! Lots of good memories with the
brick in the upper left. Thrown in are my Pokemon games, which of course are the second reason the Gameboy is awesome. (The first of course being Tetris.)
Well
blast... that's about enough for now. Hope these pictures were at least somewhat enjoyable. :)
