Hello. This site seems pretty cool from what Mykle said! You can and should call me Mason. If whoever already had that name is active, you can call me Mase or MW. Hope I can be seen as a positive member! :D

Hello Mason! I am sure you will be found as a positive member. Believe me, we are welcoming of anyone whether positive or negative. (And sometimes we are all both) :)

Name's Zac, from Indiana. 24 years old, been playing video games since before I can remember and started collecting maybe 8-ish years ago. Assistant manager at a small locally owned game shop (both retro and current...you name it, we carry it); aaron pops in at the store from time to time and has been bugging me to join, so here I am :P

In terms of collecting, I'm a shmup guy. Not terribly good at them and I honestly don't spend a ton of time playing them...but they're fun and interesting to collect, and I enjoy them, so I always pick up what shmups I find and can afford.
Also got really into NGPC recently, pieced together a near-complete CIB US library (maybe 5-10 games away) over the past few months and am after any CIB games that weren't released in the US as well. While we're on the subject of SNK, I also just picked up a Neo-Geo CD and will probably focus in on that for a while.
Other than that, I'm pretty much up for anything when it comes to games as long as I can enjoy it. Got a little less than 750 games now & maybe 20 systems, although I'm starting to scale down. Planning an extended trip to Japan later on this year so I'll need the money and there's a LOT of stuff I have that I likely won't ever play.

Outside of games, I'm really into a Japanese pop idol group called Morning Musume...have been to Los Angeles, Paris and Tokyo to see them over the last couple years. Going back to Japan at the end of summer for the final stretch before my favorite member (Takahashi Ai, see avatar) leaves.
Been studying Japanese for about 4 years now, planning to become an interpreter and hopefully end up working in the entertainment world at conventions, etc.

Looking forward to getting involved here ;D


Zac!! Welcome aboard man! Great to see you here. :)

My name is Jeremy and I'm a 31 IT systems engineer. I'm married and have a 6-year old son. I visit this site on a daily basis and finally decided to join. My first game system was the NES Deluxe Set and I've been playing ever since, but the wife finally caved in and told me I could build a game room so I'm just making the switch from emulation to collecting. I own a DS Lite (love it), Xbox 360, Wii, Xbox, PS2, GameCube, PSone, Genesis(M1 & M2), 32x, and just recently purchased a Sega CD and a Saturn. I'm really stuck on the Sega stuff right now, and am praying that my Saturn mod chip and s-video cable arrive before the weekend.

I love this site and hope that I'll be able to contribute! :D

Hi guys!

I'm a long time lurker, first time poster.

Some of you may know me already though from when I co-starred on ABC's Home Improvement with Tim Allen.
