Photo's of your retro collection.

Yep, handheld collecting is loads of fun in a hardware sense. Especially when you realize just how many are "out there". Plus, no need to worry about regions, tellies or transformers or anything.

I'll second that emotion

@ Shinobi: lovely stuff mate!! I'd also like to see the boxart on those Super Famicom games

[TheShend]

Hardware piccies? Go on then....I too managed to acquire some new gear for the collection recently ^_^ Just need you.know.what to go in it now

[speedlolita]

Sexy.

I bought:

ESP Ra.De. PCB and



The other day.

Just gonna need to rotate my monitor now..

[TheShend]

Christ those monitors weigh a bit >_<

I also picked these 2 up not long ago, in conjunction they let me use a proper Sega Saturn on a 360 with no lag. Those trials in SSFIV shall fall!

Never seen a Micro Machines one, it's top of the Seeking List now though.

It was a really good game. A red case and I think they were monster trucks in the game. Standard sort of move forward, dodge left and right affair.

The Grandstand Game Player was my first EVER gaming thing - my auntie found it left behind on a plane when she worked... with planes, I suppose. Got three games with it, don't know if there were ever any more.

No it only ever had three games. I remember I got a flyer in the pack advertising "coming soon" games for it but I dont think they ever saw the light of day. What are the three? I remember one was football. Was there a shooting one?

May I ask where from?
And how much?
(Im also thinking that a PS2 to 360 one would work out well for my cab and will probably end up in me buying more 360 games)

[aztecca]

Flippin heck you have loads of nice stuff there.Them M.U.S.C.L.E figures are great i had hundreds of them when i was at school

[Mr Vengeance]

Right then, I took fast, side on shots of the games I own last week and posted them. TOday I decided to take photos of the most notable games I own from the previous generation, and also some photos of my full collections as well. I have missed out on a lot of games from other formats, but do you really want to see Hitman Contracts, The Lord of the Rings, Sonic the Hedgehog, etc?? Probably not. So only shots of interesting stuff then

Note, I've only been collecting for a few years. I have, I hope, a fairly good taste for quality games, so before I started collecting seriously, I had a lot of excellent games. Have a look anyway...



First up then, my notable Nintendo games, starting with Gamecube: (click on the pics for bigger shots of the games)



Some N64 games:






SNES:



As you can see, I have very few SNES games boxed, and I have none for the NES. Something I ahve to work on!!


Anyway, Game Boy Colour:



Game Boy Advance - such a superb format!



Thats Nintendo done then....

[retrojc]

img link them you tittty

[Mr Vengeance]

I'm sh!t with tech me

Anyway...

PSone RPGs and stuff:



A closer look at my Final Fantasy Origins - not easy to find in mint condition this, I was lucky to pick it up about 5 years ago for a few quid in the shop I worked in. Most of these PSone games and my others (not photo'd and not worth bothering doing really) were bought there actually...




Moving onto PS2 then....



Some of them are hard to find now..... as are these two beauties:





My favourite ever PlayStation developer, Nippon Ichi's in-house developed games:





Some shooters and run 'n guns....





Some SNK fighters for the Xbox and PS2, and some Metal Slugs in there too:




Capcom fighters:




Right then, going back in time somewhat, here's nearly a grand's worth of Neo Geo loveliness




The beginnings of my Japanese Saturn collection.... a work in progress!



And lastly, an abandoned PAL Dreamcast collection. This was put to one side when I decided to go DS collecting.... will I revisit it? Not in the short time I won't, but I've some fun games in there....




Thats pretty much the best games I own!

Looks a bit of a faff to me, easier to just get a ps3

Yeah, the three games are Invader (a shooting one), Football (a football game!) and Minefield (a Minesweeper/Battleships sort of thing). Still have the flyer from it, it says to "Ask your stockist" for more games. Oh the potential!

Neilos: That's just wonderful - is it a shed by any chance? Looks like a nice shed. I have that Beetlejuice coffin, one of my favourite things ever

[Shinobi]

Right here's some of the covers of the Snes games





And my PS2 Castlevania the box is better than the game
