General / What are your 2014 game collecting goals?
« on: January 01, 2014, 11:11:51 pm »
Here is my list from last year:
1. Hit 2300 games. I am currently at 2192 so that is very doable without going over board.Beat it by almost 1000 games and ended the year at 3278
2. BUY A DAMNED NEO GEO COLOR!!! This is the third year in a row that I have had this on my list and I have to get it this year Did this and bought more games!
3. Buy some Super Famicom games. I'm not sure why but I really want to start gathering games for this system. Hitting 15 of them would be nice, 20 even better though :D I finished the year at 23
4. Hit 500 Xbox 360 games! I'm at 476 so again this is within my grasp without having to break the bank. Once again I beat this by a sizable amount: 586
5. Hit 20 3DS games, only 5 away so if I can find a couple of cheap ones over the year I'll make it I made it to 37 thanks to trade in deals
6. A stretch goal would be to hit 300 DS games. I'm at about 250 so hitting 300 would take some really good deals but hopefully I can make it :) 362 at year's end, I just made it lol
7. Lastly I'll try and get 8 more Intellivision games to reach 50 of those. Shouldn't be too hard if I don't waste my money on other things. This was the only one I didn't hit. I made it to 46 and I tried to only shop locally but the prices were just too high :(

Goals for 2014:
1. Make it to 3400 total games. I'll probably hit 3500 too ;D
2. Buy my 600th 360 game. Only 14 more to go so that will be easy to finish
3. Get to 50 Intellivision games. Hopefully the locals will be better this year
4. Hit 400 DS games. With the 3DS still growing I think I won't have much of a problem finding cheap games.
5. Buy 7 more Neo Geo Pocket Color games to get to 10 total
6. Get to 100 SNES games. I am currently at 74 so with a bit of luck I'll be able to get there.

So what are your goals for this year?

There are a couple games from Game Fly that I'm interested in right now since they have free shipping in the US. Is there anyone who would be willing to get the games shipped to them and then forward them on to me?
Thanks

Classic Video Games / What are the most expensive NA Game Gear games?
« on: April 23, 2013, 04:01:26 pm »
My wife loves the Game Gear so I am thinking about trying to get all the games for the system, just loose I don't need boxes and such. I'm just wondering what the most expensive game is for the system that I'll need to keep an eye out for.
Thanks

General / Games or Franchises that need a sequel.
« on: March 02, 2013, 01:18:56 pm »
There are a few that have been brought up in another thread I made so I thought this one would be welcome.

Mutant League games - hockey and football both need to come back in the worst way!
Mirror's Edge - I really enjoyed the game play of the first one and I have been hoping for a second since then
Fire Pro Wrestling - I want to play this on a modern system, 30 man battle royals? Yes please
Dragon Force - I loved it on the Saturn so I want to see a modern one
Super Mario RPG - I don't know how this hasn't been milked

Modern Video Games / Mirror's Edge
« on: March 02, 2013, 01:04:33 pm »
I played through the first one when it came out and I loved it. There are once more rumors circling that a second one is in the works. I really hope this is the case since I think it is an interesting concept that they could do a lot with.

Who else is excited about the rumor?

Both used and complete.

General / Franchises that need a reboot
« on: February 28, 2013, 10:45:26 pm »
They have started to do this for some games like Devil May Cry but here are some others that I wish they would reboot:

Resident Evil - stop trying to explain what is going on and just get back to zombies and scares!
Silent Hill! - Do I really need to give an explanation!
Final Fantasy - I don't care what it looks like just give me an engaging story, lots of characters and an open world. Is that really too much to ask from an RPG?

What are some others?

Will it turn on without the CR2032 battery? Or with a 100% dead one?
Thanks

General / Games you wish you were better at
« on: February 18, 2013, 01:27:58 pm »
1. Super Mario Bros! I really wish that I was good enough to finish this at will rather than when I get lucky.
2. Mega Man games. I have never been able to get the jumping and lack of ducking mastered so these are sorely unbeaten
3. Ducktales I enjoy playing it but I can't get very far in it
4. Guitar Hero games mostly because my wife KILLS me at these games so just beating her once would be nice :D
5. Any racing game where drifting is required, again I have never been able to master this skill so it is normally just a train wreck!
