I've still got my original NES with the grey gun. Mostly play Dr. Mario, Super Mario or Duck hunt.

I've got a bunch of vintage game stuff.
I collect mostly japanese gear, got a lot of import machines. My main focus is japanese Dreamcast stuff. I can't get enough of it.

Got a nice lot of rarities as well, like my Virtual Boy and 3DO, a white Saturn, original issue PSX, etc, etc.

Retro gaming is a very rewarding pasttime!



Rock On.

Video games...now were talking! I have an original NES...Super NES...Sega Master System...Colecovision (which has the best videogame version of Donkey Kong I have ever played)...Atari 1600 and 2600...and of course all the latest systems...PS1, 2, and 3...XBox 360. Favorite retro game is Street Fighter IV on the Super NES...Mike Tyson's Punchout is a very close second... :-D

I forgot I just collected my 2600 and a bunch of games from my dads house. Haven't gotten around to seeing if it still works.

I totally love the N64, just a few weeks ago i played through Zelda: Ocarina of Time again. I still have the console plugged in but I usually emulate it on PC because of better graphics (higher resolution/texture packs) and better controls (Xbox 360 controller). Some might say it ruins the nostalgia but for me it doesn't. Others might say that the N64 isn't very retro. Well, I'm only 19.
