Collecting is just as much a part of retro gaming as it is playing. Discussing your collections with everyone is going to happen. Also, we're all anonymous here which makes "cool points" irrelevant and you're all just whiny cunts.

But at the end of the day you don't play games and you just want to belong. Even if it's with a bunch of other nerds but oh I know, I get it, it's like a thing to be into retro.

sigh. i remember playing this at my friends house with a playstation with my brother and getting really hype.

We found fighting force 64 at block buster and got even more hype (we didn't have playstation).

rented it and found out it was really boring.

those are good finds anon. did you keep them?

Once I found a boxed Super Mario 3 NES at goodwill for $30 but didn't buy it cause i already had one.
Got Harvest Moon for playstation for $4 because it was labeled as a CD.

Honestly though, not even worth the time spent digging, at least not these days. I'm self employed so I could just work for a few hours and buy whatever I want on eBay. I use emulators and flash carts though

The plasma is an "Ilo" brand PDP42101EA1 with an lolow native resolution of like 800x600 or something which it's more than happy to downscale 720p or 1080p to. Only its VGA and YPbPr inputs work.

This is only true for those who grew on consoles like NES to N64

I'm sure some kids will be nostalgic for Halo or something

Unironically, I already started collecting for OG Xbox. Got 2 working consoles, 1 broken one (used parts to repair another one) and around 30 games

Also, I wonder if cart based games might not double value in 10 or so years. If so, it's still kind of worth buying them today, it just sucks to do so at such a price.
