Yeeeeee the haul today was great. Good times with Hoof and Halvy.

Sweet repro cart. What does the ROM hack actually change?

http://pokemonashgray.com/

Apparently the story lines up with the anime story.  I'm psyched to play it myself.  :D

Oh, yeah; I remember hearing about that one.

Also, almost didn't realize who responded because of the missing avatar.

Yeah, those other pesky abusive mods changed my avatar but I don't have the original image to revert it back.  :(

Also, this game is awesome so far.  :D

A recent trade aqusition:


modded with a region switch and scart RGB output for both the SG and the rau-30 unit.


no plans to get a CDČ  but it's nice to know it's there. About a week before the SuperGrafx arrived I found Splatterhouse at a junk shop for $1 amongst the CDs and tapes, easily one of the best finds of my entire life and weirdly timed too.

When my brother moved to California I let him take our N64, NES, SNES, and Dreamcast... I regret that decision.

Currently only have an XBONE set up. Own a 360 but that's in storage.

Yeah, more than I would at least. He plays them with his kids and having them get that experience is worth it.

Doesn't that window annoy you when light is really bright and still coming through? I have curtains and a window from behind, but it's not strong enough to keep the sun out.

Depends on the time of day. For the most part, it does a good enough job that I'm not bugged a lot by it. That said, I would still love to move it to a different room but the office is being used as storage space right now. Maybe this summer :)

This just leaves EarthBound to acquire in cartridge format. That...should be a story.
Might just download it on the 3DS for now and get the cart later.

no plans to get a CDČ  but it's nice to know it's there. About a week before the SuperGrafx arrived I found Splatterhouse at a junk shop for $1 amongst the CDs and tapes, easily one of the best finds of my entire life and weirdly timed too.

There are a few in here that don't really show much, but help illustrate how the room is set up, so bear with it.

All the games, minus what's in the systems.

And to the left...

All of my systems with digital video outputs

His games are stacked to the sides.

And that's it!

My handhelds are all kept in a separate location, but this isn't really the thread for that anyway, eh?
Hoffman, I had no idea you were such the connoisseur of vintage gaming decadence! The next time I'm in WI I'll need to stop by and take some of that off your hands play some video games.

I retired my short-lived chess career shortly after my 14-year-old nephew began beating me.
Thanks. I've been hoarding collecting games and all things game-related Pac-Man since my childhood. I still have most of it and have been adding to it since.
