The Ivolt-Sinatra Out: Dave me to the Moon~

[Cosmic]

Hey, anything that saves me manually re-encoding dozens of MKV files is alright by me.

Sealed NES is where prices really get crazy. I wish I knew you collected complete NES games sooner, I sold a bunch of them a year ago (give or take a month ), I could have cut you a deal .

The only sealed NES game I ever owned was a copy of Kirby's Adventure.

To me, part of me feels like selling my NES collection would be like selling my childhood.

I once dreamed of owning the entire US liscensed NES collection. The older I get though, the more I look at it as a waste of money. I could sell all of it off and easily buy the BGA reflow machine I need to really start a console repair business.

I had the same dream, 'cept I wanted them all in at least the original boxes. If it had the box, then I could forgo the fact that it didn't have the instruction manual, but I wanted at least the box. When I sold off most of my collection to pay for stuff when I found out I was having a kid, I got rid of just over 200 games. At the peak of my collection, I had 249 games in the original boxes, about 80% of them with the original manuals. That's just shy of 33% of all US released titles, according to the GameFAQs database of US releases. There are 799 official NTSC/PAL releases, and I believe 816 if you include unlicensed games.

I'll see if I can find that picture...

Spoiler warning:

This isn't my complete collection, but it's the last photo I was able to find. There are approximately 220 games there... maybe 210, I can't really remember and can't be arsed to count them.

Yeah, but just imagine how badass of a grandfather you're going to be in 40 years or so.

If I ever win the lottery, or find a good paying job (or, really, just get full time at my current job) I'm going to start collecting again. I know I won't be able to finish the collection (games like Stadium Events are just too damn expensive), but I'm hoping to make a decent stab at it again in the near future.

... we really have to move the "Close Thread" checkbox...

I only have permissions in the Upload services, so I just cat patiently.....crying.

At least I noticed fairly quickly this time. Last time, someone had to use the "Report Post" option to tell me that I had closed it, because I was the only supermod/admin online and I didn't notice.

The worst part is there's no reason for it to be anywhere near the reply box. Crappiest thing about VB4 by far.

Agreed. If they had to have the option close to the Quick Reply box, it should have been in a dropdown menu similar to "Inline Mod" or "Moderation Tools." At least that way it won't get checked accidentally.

Transcoding the da' bomb.

Why not simply remove the close thread checkbox, it's not like there isn't a second just as easily accessible close thread dropdown option.

I'll never sell my DC collection .

I'll never sell my DC collection .

Because they're all CD-Rs?

This.

A quick reply box does not require a close thread option.

They're.....already indexed?

Oh boy, I like the new mods already!

I really, really wish I had never sold most of them. One of the worst decisions of my life. Mostly because I was too proud to ask my parents for a bit of money to help out with the expense of picking up a crib, stroller, car seat, bassinet, bath tub, change table and... I know there's more that I'm missing but I can't think of it.

Seriously though, having a kid is expensive.

I have lots of them, but I do have a lot of real games .
