Intro thread

Welcome teknophyl! There are a lot of us 30+ here so it sounds like you'll fit right in.

Welcome again! I agree with Jcalder8, I would consider myself a gamer first and a collector second. Pretty much the only reason I collect anyway is because I play games and pick up more games that I've wanted to play.

I'm glad I'm not the old guy in the room. Many of my colleagues/cohorts are geeks, but no one really games. They don't appreciate the prizes I find /shrug

That's what we're here for.  Found a Rocket Slime keychain for free at a garage sale? Post a thread about it!  We'll ooh and ahh and offer you money for it.

To be honest, they are pretty cute:


So if you find one, PM me

[teknophyl]

WANT! That and the PS2 controller too.

Hey guys, I am a youngster from Australia (20) and I'm really only collecting for consoles I already have as I see no reason to branch out yet. Even though my collection says all NA formats, right now it's just because it is easier. Eventually I might try and help out the PAL format entries.

I do try and game when I can, not out and out as I used to be a few years ago. Started collecting because after I got my first decently paid job my Xbox 360 collection grew, which was fun in itself; hand picking games that I wanted to play from different genres. Now my focus is my PlayStation Two collection and the Pokemon series. It wasn't until I started logging my collection in here I realised how much of the series I have covered.

Welcome to the site! We can always use some help with our non-NA entries. If you need anything or have any suggestions please let me know.

Welcome drwatson! Always Nice to see another new member for outside North America.

Welcome to the site drwatson. Do you have any games that weren't released in NA?

Welcome to the site. Glad your part of the community.

Pretty much anyone who collects anything is OCD. Some of us, just more than others. 

Q.F.T.

[philogical]

Hiya, I'm Phil and I have been looking for a site like this for awhile. It's great thanks. I currently live in the Phoenix Arizona area, (Luke AFB).

I have been collecting for years, albiate very slowly. It's gonna take me awhile to fill in my collection in my profile, but I currently have NES 2, SNES, Nintendo 64, Dreamcast, Gamecube, Xbox, PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, Nintendo DS, and PSP. I love retro games and have been very interested lately in adding to my collection at a faster rate. I also really enjoy doing projects and have been inspired to try to build my own NES PC. I am also a husband, Father, dog owner, board game geek, sci-fi nerd, and spend way to much time on Reddit.

This place seems great and I hope to contribute to and learn from the community. Thanks
