Here's a hard one for me:

Move all the boxed up gaming cartons into storage. This is the year, surely it is. I made it a goal last year but oh well, this year I will accomplish it.

2018 goals
1) Stay under 6000 games. Failed
- I'm sitting at 6,400 items in my collection.
2) Participate in 52 game challenge, but I'm going to be super busy next year, so no plans to beat 104 again. Success
- Sitting at 46 or 47 games beat, I could probably meet the 52 games beat challenge if I hunker down... Smash bros might kill that though.
3) Continue selling dupes to knock down wishlist. Success
- I did pretty good with this, still working on building up a paypal balance to buy a heavy hitter.
4) Get under 10 games left on N64 full set. Success
- 7 games left
5) Reinventory collection Failed
- I started working on this a few times and it was fairly fruitful, but I know I'd need to start over at this point.
6) Log magazines and guides Failed
- I did some of this for guides, but magazines are such a pain.
7) Take game room pics. Success
- I've done this a few times this year.
8) Play through the Yakuza franchise. Success
- Played through the rest of the mainline games, still need to do Dead Souls.



2019 goals

1) Participate in 52 game challenge.  Aim for 52 games.
2) Stay under 7,000 games.
3) Regularly update my collecting instagram account.
4) Reinventory collection
5) Reorganize collection since I'm out of space.
6) Finish Dark Souls 3
7) Play through God of War franchise.
8) Get below 3 games left on N64 full set.
9) Get wishlist under 100.
10) Keep selling games to make money to buy more games.

Might add more.

To ignore the allure of games, buy more shares and make more mortgage overpayments.

OK, so 2018's resolutions were:

- Touch-up decorating in new game room. Nope
- Buy and install large cabinet for game room. Done
- Move strategy guides, 360, PS3 and PS2 games into new cabinet. Partial
- Beat the 52 game challenge this year. Nope
- Weed out more dead wood from the collection, it's great to have a backlog of games to try out, but there's only so many in predictable genres like FPS that I need, swap em for different stuff. Done
- As finances allow, buy strategy guides that are wanted for collection - Nintendo games, RPGs and survival horrors in particular. Nope
- Re-arrange older games that are being stored at the parents' place. Partial

OK, so that was a disaster. With a little one on the way, zero free cash and limited time it's time to be a bit more realistic.

2019's goals:

- Finish re-arranging games stored at parents' place.
- Buy and install final shelving unit for games room.
- Buy CRT television with stand for old games etc.
- Get Backloggery as close to 80% unbeaten as possible, currently at 82.3% unbeaten but some games are 'nulled' and not counted, so they will increase the figure.
- By the same token, finishing off the big clear out will help lower the number, though that's at least 90% done at this point.
- Attempt the 52 game challenge - zero chance of success, but participation is enough.
- Get BioShock 2 standee assembled and in game room.
- Get Prey lithograph framed and hung.
- Get Prey promotional cloth hung.

My sole resolution is to dedicate more time for playing games. This year I went through the process of adapting to a solid full time position in my career field that I truly enjoy. Adapting to not only the time, but the job as well threw off my free time a lot throughout the year. At this point I'm mostly settled in, so I hope to stick to this resolution in the new year.

My gaming resolution for 2019 is to learn how to properly play fighting games. I've always loved fighting games for the character designs and martial arts, but never really learned the science and math behind playing them. Hoping to change that this year.

Build my import collection: I certainly did build my collection of imports, but sadly I probably didn't even add 10 new import games this year. I rarely come across these for obvious reasons, and what I do acquire is usually because of birthday or xmas presents from my GF since she knows I love them. But regardless I did add some import games and hopefully with Xmas right around the corner I'll add even more to my collection. Hell, maybe I'll break 10 before the year is over :p



I actually feel like this one might be more of a success than I originally realized, or at least it will. I definitely haven't picked upa ton of imports this year, but just today I added three new PS2 imports to the collection which probably puts me at 10 or around 10 for the year. As mentioned I have several imports on my xmas list so it may take me even further into this goal, which was absolutely a success for 2018 :)

Not a whole lot on my plate:

-More Genesis shoot-em ups.

-Resident Evil 2 Remake.

-Polymega console - Console that plays old-school disc-based games in HD like Sega CD, 3DO, Saturn, and PS1.

Scratch that Polymega console. After the input-lag experience with the RetroN 5, I want nothing to do with clone console that upscale to HD.

So it looks like just the Genesis shoot-em ups and RE2 Remake for me.

Finish Red Dead. That’s all I’m going to promise to do in the year.
