All the N64 hate makes me sad
. Despite having no RPGs on it really, it is still my favorite Nintendo console of all time.

That's awesome! Watching that video was definitely inspiring to collect for the system. You seem to have a lot of patience (and perhaps a decent amount of disposable income), so I'd say go for it!I have so much love for it too, but I didn't get a Dreamcast until after the system was discontinued. I think it was Power Stone 1 & 2 that sold me on the system's charm. Typing of the Dead as well.I mostly collect to play. The exception being that for some reason I want a complete Dreamcast collection. That's far down the road, but I'm always looking to get new Dreamcast games! Doubly so now that I have my sweet Hanzo VGA box/Scanliner.
Haha funny enough the Dreamcast has been the only system I considered collecting the whole set as well. Part is was that I am almost half way there with the games I actually want on the console, and the other is that I just have so, so, so much love for that console. All the games (including the sports games) have this character to them that I am completely in love with. Seeing this video also didn't help matters:

I've noticed you going for Dreamcast games in the past. I kind of consider you competition. I've seen a couple videos from the keep dreaming series and it's pretty fantastic. I want two Dreamcast fighting sticks so bad!
I hope you were able to nab those games from Foxhack. If PAX East hadn't just happened, I'd probably have the money to grab them myself lol.
Lol it's all good, there is plenty to go around :p
I did end up getting Capcom vs. SNK and King of Fighters Evolution from him, but I already have the rest. After I get those in the mail there are only 4 more NTSC Dreamcast games I am after (Silent Scope, Vigalante 8: Second Offense, Street Fighter III: Double Impact, and Illbleed). I also have about 20 import titles I am after as well. So I am almost out of the Dreamcast Collecting scene, although as I said, it is tempting to go for a full set![]()

I definitely collect to play. I never really saw the point of collecting every game for a specific console, including all the crap, shovelware, Maddens, and BS that no one except a completionist collector would want. I only collect games that I someday plan on playing, even if that ends up being 40-years from now. With that said, I will buy a game I have no interest in if it is a good deal and if I can use it as trade bait. Other than that, I only want games that I will play someday, even if my collection is way smaller then someone going for a whole system set.
Hey, I PROUDLY own every almost Madden since 2002 (except 2005 and 2009). And I still play most of them... or at least pop them in to laugh at the rosters.
I am looking to see if anyone has a complete Action Replay for the original XBOX they'd be willing to sell me? I have stuff to trade as well.
... ha.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Are you serious. Dude. I HAVE ONE. Check your PMs!
