That’s...absolutely beautiful. Everything I could ever want in a boxed collection and more on top. :wub:

Out at the moment, but I’ll post my full thoughts when I get home. I’ll say though, that for me the jewel in the crown is Resident Evil 2(and Kirby, a game I desperately want). In a crowd of absolutely incredible items.

Hey, thank you, guys!

I'm sure I have a couple more N64 bits but I can't trace 'em right now. My flat is wrecked and I gotta try and put everything back into the cupboards :lol: .

Again, impressive.

My entire Gameboy collection is:

Tetris
Super Mario Land 2
Wario Land
Wario Land II
Metroid II
Lode Runner
Ren & Stimpy: Veediots
Tip-Off
James Pond: Robocod

The first 5 are all great, the rest are terrible and rarely got played.

My collection feels so inadequate now. :(

What I would give to get a boxed copy of Zero Mission for £6.

You've got a few heavy-hitters there, Ironhide - the Mario / Wario lands are GB classics! Metroid II is very collectible even though it can be a little frustrating to play.

I recall Lode Runner from my C64 days; a revamped version is out for current consoles, too. As for Tip-Off... hee, yeah, the developer tried to move their successful Kick-Off game into the world of basketball and it didn't really take off!

CD, man, I definitely don't want anyone to feel like that. I have a couple of nice items, but so do loads of other collectors. Dude, you're rockin' a Famicom Twin! It's not about the volume of gear you have; it's how much you enjoy it.

I'm just as interested and excited to see someone here share their collection of, say, their five PS3 games as I would be to see a complete set of Master System titles. There's always something interesting to check out and chat about in any game collection :-) .

They are some fantastic collection pics Jawa! Such a great era for games captured in those photos.

I was only being half serious anyway so don't worry about it.

All I can say is two things, you have a great collection and a wonderful attitude about game collecting .

I hate it when people are braggy or jealous, I would like to think we are all in this together and can support each other, it's great to see everyone stuff and hear about what they have and where there planning on going next with there collection. Every single story is worth telling.

\o. Abso-lutely, kerr! I'm hoping that, with the chat we've seen in the thread recently about pick-ups and stuff, maybe we're gonna get a good vibe going and people will be confident to share news about their own collections. There's some good potential here!

A very tasty CIB N64 set, Jawa. You definitely lived up to expectations. :datass:

I love hearing about new pickups - one of my favourite things in this forum, actually.

I especially like pictures. :capnscotty:
