My Setup *Update 8/23*

[Ziggy]

I swear, I have the same composite switch box as you! Those tabs above the each button, they have names on them, correct? And you can switch them out for stuff like "N64," "DVD," "Dreamcast" or "PS2."

I've got that same on too I believe. I think it's made by Pelican.

I have the same style tv. Does yours have that awful wiggle room with the svideo or do you have the good model?

Um...nice VCR. I assume you use it to... watch VHS tapes.


lol nice setup, I like how you have the DS Lite and GBA SP set up there

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

@nickfil - The PS3 does worry me up there, especially with my bulky stereo and two filled cd cases as well. But my Dad assured me that it will hold.

@marspants - The stereo is pretty old but it does have really good sound.

@ziggy587 and sakicfan84 - Yep, that's the same Pelican box.

@fastbilly1 - Yeah I think I know what you're talking about. The plugins move around really easily because there is nothing really bracing them in the back of the tv, the plastic just kind of compresses when you plug stuff in. Really annoying.

@reverend - I keep the VCR around because I've got some of my favorite movies on VHS (American Beauty, Evil Dead 2, Seven Samurai, etc.) and I haven't gotten around to updating their format. I put the DS and GBA up there to show my COMPLETE collection of stuff. Normally I have one of my hats on one speaker and my freebento Aliens windup toys on the other.

I just ordered four games (Jet Grind Radio for DC, Super Mario World for SNES, Road Rash for Genesis, and Rescue Rangers for NES) so I'll post my games when I get the new ones.

Once you go to Japan your collection will never be the same. My advice is start with Sega Saturn, many really good quality games are common and really cheap. Everything is available for every system and collecting becomes a game of choice.

AES stuff isn't exactly cheap but it is everywhere. If you live or travel into large cities Neo Geo AES and MVS is everywhere. Might be fun to build an MVS supergun like thing and hunt MVS carts if you are hardcore about it.

yeah thats the problem. On mine it has gotten to the point that I only use the Svideo for a computer - if at all.

As requested, here's some pics of my games. My collection is pretty small compared to a lot of you, but it's got a lot of quality. I didn't include my Saturn games because a few of them are "loose" and don't have cases. Once I get some more jewel cases and print out some covers I'll post those too. And now that I'm at the computer I realize I didn't take pics of my computer games. I'll add those when I post my Saturn stuff.
