I'll probably get back into it again one day, but I won't ever be able to finish the collection like I had originally dreamed, unless I win the lottery. I can't really justify shelling out $40K for Stadium Events. :lol
I will also never be a sealed game collector. If I happen to find one at a good price I might nab it, but I will never go out of my way to pick 'em up. :sad-no:
The NES is my all time favourite platform. It's the only console I would ever consider seriously collecting for.
Bought a set of Munitio earbuds. Price dropped from $49 to $29; MORE BASS FOR MY MUSIC. :cool:
Just finished up my drawing of Simon from Tengen Toppen Gurren Lagann. <3 Definitely one of my favorite drawings ever done. :)
Which reminds me. I should totally buy an MP3 player or something.Quote:

On the plus side since a good majority of Genesis games were plastic cases. It's much more common to find them CIB, and generally cheaper than most. Of course you have your rarities, but nothing that comes close to a Stadium Events/NWC/NCC for the NES. I mainly want to start by working toward a complete RPG collection for the Genesis CIB, as my first goal. ;)Quote:

Post your drawing and prepare for harsh criticism!

Damn you Nintendo! :fist:
Nintendo's releasing a 3DS LL that's 90% bigger than the original. It's supposed to be coming out Aug 19, for US$199.

I bought mine only a few months ago for $170, I knew I should've waited. :/
The only sealed game I ever had was Kirby's Adventure. Otherwise, the $200+ price tag on most of those games was enough of a deterrent for me.Quote:

There were a couple games in my collection that were in pretty rough shape around the edges/flaps.
If I ever did try and build a complete CIB collection, it would only be officially released titles at first. That gives me a couple of benefits -- I don't have to try and track down Bubble Bath Babes/Hot Shots/Peek-A-Boo Poker and the rarer Tengen titles, and I don't have to try and grab those multicarts that quickly skyrocket in price, like Myriad 6-in-1, or the rare tournament carts, like NWC or NCC. (Which reminds me, a gray NWC cart is on eBay right now for $17K).
Once I get a complete officially licensed collection, I'll move onto unlicensed games. Which I'll probably have a good helping of anyways thanks to lot auctions. :wacko:
A 3DS XL. How am I not surprised?
Those look pretty cool. ^_^ Maybe once the price goes down a bit. I'm really stingy when it comes to buying... pretty much anything but video games. :lolQuote:

On most of the games, the graphics seemed toget worse because of the stretching to fit the screen, and the handheld itself was just a bit too unwieldy because of the added weight. I think I would have been much happier and gotten more use out of my DS if it wasn't for those issues. I could really only play for 30-45 minutes at a time before it started to get a bit too cumbersome and I had to put it down and rest.Quote:

Night guys. :bed:
I guess we'll see with this new one. It's not like I'll run out and buy one. I still rock my original fat DS, that one is perfect in my hands.Quote:
