I'm almost sure that's where he got most of this stuff ... junk shops. (flea markets, salvation army, garage sales, etc)

Video games and consoles are really great to collect because they're pieces of electric retro. Things stop being fun when you have multiples and pointless accessories. How many Dreamcasts? Wha? 4 Genesis systems?

Unfortunately, the majority of that 30 year collection can be condensed to 1 modified Original Xbox w. 100gb hdd.




There are things (non-roms) in my collection that I find overwhelmingly valuable though.
- every Sega CD game made (Japan / USA)
- every Sega Saturn game made (Japan / USA)
- every Sega Dreamcast game made (Japan / USA)
- every Turbo Duo game made (Japan / USA)
- every Neo Geo CD game made (Japan / USA)
- every 3DO game made (Japan / USA)
- 2,000 PSX games
(of course, they're not all originals)
