No worries!

If there's one thing that there's not a lack of here ==>

  ==>it's Canadians; eh 

Hahaha great!

Blodwast Welcome to the site.  Don't let anything around here scare you off.  This is a good bunch of folks.  We have fun, even if we have strong opinions from time to time.  Enjoy your stay and feel free to jump in with both feet.

... and I stand by my "eat my ass" comment.   

Haha thanks and don't worry, I won't be scared! And you all look like pleasant people around here, I'm sure I'll have fun hanging around as I am already having fun! Eh, and strong opinions? I may have some from time to time aswell!

Well, that's not creepy, but it sure surprised me  Yep, I'm from Quebec, my native language is French, but I speak English pretty fluently, I guess. Where are you from exactly?

I'm from Quebec aswell!

Salut! Je suis à Québec, en fait sur la rive sud et toi?

You have good taste in games 

Thanks! Haha.

I just started buying collector's editions as I am so deceived I didn't pick up some when I should have. (Bravely Default for exemple... )

/sigh....  Back into Diablo 3 on PC again....  FML....

HAHAHA I know the feeling, I'm back on Diablo 3 aswell. Loot 2.0 patch made me come back .


Other than that, I'm currently playing (on and off) Pokémon Diamond (NDS) and Assassin's Creed (Xbox 360).
I say on and off as most of my playing time still goes on League of Legends (yeah, I just can't get over it haha).

Welcome

Maybe this thread is for you 

http://vgcollect.com/forum/index.php/topic,4705.0.html

Hahaha don't worry guys, this will not scare me!
I've read a couple of posts there and there're some good comments but I'll respond there if I find it necessary as this is not the place!

Welcome to the family!
Don't be scared off by the thread fazerco linked, by the way I also started my collection thanks to my work in a video games store (I could trade all my greatest hits/player's choice for black labels, that was awesome ). And I have to say you've got some taste in consoles!

Thanks!
If I'm not mistaken, I think you're from Canada? I've seen a video, if I remember right, from you and you sounded like your first language is french (with your accent). I don't want to feel like a creepo invading your privacy haha but I'm from Canada also and speak french! So I was wondering if you were close to me or something.

I've got a pretty good amount of games this month so far and it's only the 6th haha.

So here's what I got!

A couple of days ago, I ordered :
 - Xenoblade Chronicles
 - Blazblue : Continuum Shift EXTEND Limited Edition

and pre-ordered Conception II : Children of the Seven Stars [Launch Edition].

Yesterday I bought a PS2 lot which included :
 - Resident Evil : The Essentials
 - Hitman Trilogy
 - Devil May Cry
 - Devil May Cry 2
 - Viewtiful Joe
 - Viewtiful Joe 2
 - Metal Gear Solid 2 : Substance
 - Final Fantasy X
 - Monster Hunter
 - Swashbucklers : Blue vs. Grey
 - Disaster Report
 - Phantasy Star Universe
 - Drakan : The Ancients' Gates
 - The Bouncer
 - Dynaster Warriors 4
 - Shadow of the Colossus

I also have Demon Gaze Limited Edition and Hakuoki : Stories of the Shinsengumi Limited Edition pre-ordered which will be released later this month.

I consider that it's a lot and I've never really bought/pre-ordered that much within a couple of days but hey, I feel happy about it (not my wallet though :/ haha).

Haii!

Just thought I'd drop a little message here to say hi. I've been lurking for a few weeks already and started putting my collection on here. It's pretty neat and the community seems nice! I've been looking for a forum like this for a while and I'm glad to be part of this community (where it's not only people bragging about how their collection's worth 10 millions haha).

If you guys are wondering, I've been seriously collecting for about a year now. I've been gaming since I was a kid and kept all my games (which I'm really happy about now!). What really started me into collecting seriously was my job at a video game store. I started buying more and more games as some rares came in and we were selling them for cheap, so I bought them. I eventually bought a large amount of games when the boss decided to put all Xbox, GameCube and PlayStation 2 games for $0.99. (Yeah, EVERYTHING for 99 cents) Radiata Stories for 99 cents? HELL YEAH. One of my coworker got Skies of Arcadia Legends for 99 cents aswell. I was soooo jealous haha.
So yeah, I'm collecting pretty much everything, if it's a good deal, I'll take it. I rarely buy new games and when I do, I'm getting them for cheap when they have a rebate or a promotion. I don't buy new games for $60.

At the moment, I've got games for these systems :
 - NES
 - SNES
 - Nintendo 64
 - GameCube
 - Wii

 - GameBoy
 - GameBoy Color
 - GameBoy Advance
 - Nintendo DS
 - Nintendo 3DS

 - PlayStation
 - PlayStation 2
 - PlayStation 3
 - PSP
 - PS Vita

 - Xbox
 - Xbox 360

 - Sega Game Gear
 - Sega Genesis


So yeah, that's about it I guess. If you guys got any questions, feel free to ask!
