As for my collection of games, they are rather games I've decided to keep over the years since I find them timelessly enjoyable. Many of the consoles I own, are the exact ones I've bought during the time of launch. Since I'm not a collector, I discard any shovelware games immediately. Over the years I've sold majority of games for my systems and kept my favorites.
NES: When I was still a very young boy my parents bought me a brand new Nintendo Entertainment System with Super Mario Bro. / Duck Hunt package. Every week we should go down to our local video rental store to rent 1 NES games to play. I grew up playing Mega Man, Double Dragon, Kirby, Mario, Little Nemo, amongst other NA released games. To this day I still own the exact (not working) console without box/misc. For now I do not play, or buy any games for it.
SNES: The second console my parents bought me growing up in the 90s soon after NES was SNES with Super Mario World. This would be my console for my childhood years. My neighbor owned the Sega Genesis and I remember frequently playing over his home, and he would visit to play SNES at mine. In the same fashion as NES, I have rented 1 game every-week for many years experiencing and playing plethora of NA-released games. From Kirby series, Mega Man X series, Pocky and Rocky, Contra III, etc. Back then I did not own many actual games since I've rented them, but for today I still own at least 5 actual CIB SNES games from my childhood growing up.
GB: Around the time of SNES days, my parents bought me a Game Boy Pocket (green). Owning under 5 games, my main use was eventually playing Pokémon (Blue Version) during the craze. Went ahead and bought a link cable and would challenge and trade fellow friends at middle school. To this day I still own my original Game Boy Pocket and set of Pokémon cards I've had growing up. I do not collect for this system.
Saturn: During the 32-bit wars, I remember very clearly, I would subscribe to many video game magazines at the time (Game Fan, EGM, Game Pro) and would debate which next console I should buy. PlayStation has been on the shelve for a few months now, Nintendo 64 debuted, but my decision as to go for Sega Saturn. Since it one of my all-time favorite arcade games growing up; Die Hard Arcade. I would play that game at my local arcade for hours. Eventually buying a PlayStation, Sega Saturn was very enjoyable at the time. I've sold majority of my NA-released games to this day. And recently sold my actual original NA-released Sega Saturn console (modded) in order to focus my collecting/playing on JPN Sega Saturn titles instead. To this day its one of my favorite consoles of all-time.
PlayStation: Not convinced in the system library of games at time it took me a few years to jump on board. Around 1998 I bought PS1 since my friend introduced me to a few gems he had; Trap Gunner / Mega Man X4 / Silhouette Mirage. Those games made me want the console. I collect/play obscure titles domestic and imported for this console.
Dreamcast: Very similar fashion to Sega Saturn, my favorite arcade games were being released to this system (Marvel Vs. Capcom, Power Stone, and Spawn: In the Demon Hand) all which I've played extensively at my local arcade. To this day its one of my favorite consoles of all-time. I do not collect for this console, I wish to in the future.
PS2: From the gap between Dreamcast - Xbox I owned a PS2. This time around I've bought many games (not intending to collect) and still own majority, many being exclusive. I still collect/play PS2 to this day. I collect/play domestic and imported games.
GameCube: Was giving to as a gift, was not a fan of the system. Found a few exclusive gems that were worthwhile, I still own today. Only collect/play specific imported titles.
PSP: I've bought the PSP with no intention to playing games instead using it as a translator on my travels to Japan. Using the software Talkman. My only interest are imported shmups, beat'em ups, and fighters
NDS: My friend convinced me in buying a Nintendo DS Lite. One of my favorite handhelds, since it also has a port for GBA games as well. I've bought a handful of NA-released NDS and GBA games for it. More recently I've been playing many RPGs on it via R4 SD card.
Xbox 360: Online-fighting games only. I do not collect for this system.
PC Engine: My (2015) addition to my collection of systems is NEC PC-Engine I've acquired a few years back. My goal is to play many of the best games the system has to offer. Turbo Everdrive helping as well.
PC Engine CD: See above. ^^
Genesis: Second latest addiction to my collection of systems. I've been playing games using Ever Drive SD card more recently.
Wii: Decided to get into Nintendo Wii at this point (2018-Present) since game prices are low.

Classic Video Games / Re: PS2 turn 20 in NA
« on: October 28, 2020, 05:09:30 pm »
I was happy playing my Sega Dreamcast when the PS2 first launched in NA. Even the DVD selling point wasn't enough to sway my opinion early on.
It wasn't until next year when Sega was pulled the plug on DC, and I wanted to play Zone of the Enders that was exclusive to PS2.
Looking back if it wasn't for its massive catalog of unique software, arcade compilations /re-makes, the blockbuster AAA titles were not for me (ex. GTAIII series). I prefer more simpler video games without a large map or realistic graphics.
I still own my 2001 phat PS2 system that works today. Even enjoyed for a short-time playing online the few titles it offered, on dial-up nonetheless.

General / Re: What Are Your Current Gaming Preference/Tastes
« on: October 16, 2020, 08:24:35 pm »
My gaming and collecting taste are shoot'em ups /bullet-hell , 2D fighting /tag-based , puzzle /competitive. Classic arcade video game genres that test your reflexes, memorization, that feature a versus mode (or cooperation mode) that focus on high scores.
I also enjoy 2D platform, 3D fighting, RPG, strategy, brawler occasionally.
My least favorite genres include anything realistic especially first-person perspective games. FPS, simulators, action-adventure, adventure, sandbox /open-world, point and click, visual novel.
My favorite consoles to play on
Sega Saturn, PC Engine Duo, PlayStation 1, Sega Dreamcast, PlayStation 2, and Xbox 360 besides on PC and handheld Nintendo DS.
