Quote from: Samurai Ghost on 06/26/2012, 01:45 AMWas just unpacking some of my Saturn stuff and realized I had some pretty pricy games mixed in there! A few dupes that I need to sell/trade as well.

Dude....what the fuck is wrong with you? Why do you need three copies of anything? I'd sell all the Symphony of the Nights because the Saturn version sucks. Then I'd celebrate by giving the Astra Superstars to me because I'm an idiot who sold my copy back in the day.

Seriously, PM me how much you want for a Astra Superstars.

Samurai Ghost · 06/26/2012, 01:52 PM

Well the reason I have a few extra copies is that I would usually buy one copy for myself to play, then at some point I'd see one for a great price on Yahoo Auction Japan and pick it up figuring I could trade it for some other rare/sought after game I wanted.

As for SoTN, I do like the PS1 version better but you can play Maria in the Saturn version for what that's worth. But the reason I bought three copies (used to have four) is that I had bought one at some game shop in Japan that was in terrible condition but playable, then I picked up a copy in better shape on YAJ. Then some crappy seller on YAJ posted a "new" copy of the game, which I took to mean sealed. I usually don't collect sealed copies but I wouldn't mind a sealed SoTN as I love the series. Bought it for a fairly high price it arrived opened and used (even a few light scratches on the disc). The forth copy was one that was so cheap I couldn't pass it up. Keep in mind, this is coming from a guy who had five copies of Drac X at one point, so take it as you will.

Also, here's a few PCE titles I have on hand. Grabbed the wrong box out of storage so a lot of my more rare titles are still there somewhere!

Mmmmmm Fausset Armour.

Drool....

Samurai Ghost · 06/26/2012, 02:42 PM

Yeah, love that game!! Glad I took the plunge and picked it up despite mixed reviews. Think it's my favorite platformer on the SuperCD format other than Drac X.

Now that is a sweet set up.....

Any more gaming room pics out there? I would really like to see how everyone stores their collections. I'll provide an update on my room soon. Maybe a before and after.

That's just the garage...since this is the Brag'n Boast thread; In the basement is the home theater and upstairs in the living room is the console setups.

I should have some nice shots of the party this weekend and you'all can check out the backyard...as long as my phone does not melt. It's gonna be HOT, good thing the keg is ice cold.

FiftyQuid · 07/06/2012, 06:53 PM

How do you guys power all those machines? Are they on a separate breaker panel? What about surge protection?

majors · 07/09/2012, 09:19 AM

Quote from: FiftyQuid on 07/06/2012, 06:53 PMHow do you guys power all those machines?

There is a lot of outlets in the garage. Whoever lived there before me used it as a shop. I had to run three extension cords to break up the power to the middle. I've never blew a breaker but I did trip the cheap power strips a few times.

roflmao · 07/09/2012, 01:14 PM

I finally got around to using my Sparky Stickers to create cases for games that I have loose. Of course, now that I've done that, I'm contemplating hunting down the manuals for the loosies.

Click on the image to see a wicked-high-rez image.

EDIT: Can you tell which ones are the Sparky Stickers? There's about 20 of 'em.

FiftyQuid · 07/09/2012, 02:06 PM

Great image. Thank you for sharing! I really like the little shelf you have them on. I'm looking to find a CD rack that will allow me to stack them horizontally instead of vertically. I was worried about the hu cards slipping inside, especially on the Keith Courage refurbed cases where they don't have clips. Nice collection, but what are you going to do with your binder now?

Thanks! I think I picked up that shelf at Target awhile back. I used to have them in an old CD tower that held them horizontally. Each case would fit in its own slot. However there were only a few places to fit the double-disc cases so they sat out of order, and the tower didn't hold as many discs.

The cases are mainly for me to gaze upon with awe and glory. I still keep the Hu's in the binder because I have a system hooked up to a tube tv there in the bed room and I have another system hooked up in the living room. And when I take the RV out, I usually bring along a system.

So it's nice to be able to have the whole collection in one handy book.

So much obey in one room, I don't know if my house can take it! Sadly, two of these systems will be moving on soon.

Man, all of these pics make me envious! I want a Kiosk so bad. Sadly is the only place I'd ever find one is on EvilBay where anyone buying it would get royally screwed. I just need to have one built at this point. Everyone, for the most part these are bragworthy for sure! I guess when I get my camera back I'll post pics of my updated Turbo collection and my N-Gage stuff too.

I'm assuming your house collapsed from all of that awesomeness? No structure is built to withstand that much obey.

P.S. - Do you have any spare CD units left?

TheClash603 · 07/20/2012, 12:28 AM

I hardly get dupes and I always move them on if I do obtain them. However, this thread and some Beamer chat pics a few days ago has convinced me to build a fort out of old systems.

Hopefully in 18-24 months I have some pics to back this up...
