The Top 5 Items In Your Video Game Collection

[retrosportsgamer]

I tried to come up with this based on the 5 things I point out to people (or jump out to people) who first check out my game room.

1. Neo Geo AES w/ 4 games
2. PCE Duo R (modded)
3. Sega Dreamcast collection w/ Agetec arcade stick
4. Original Sega CD and 32x systems still with their boxes
5. CIB Final Fantasy III for the SNES - I plucked this up when working for Hollywood Video (summer of '98) as we moved all the previous rentals to the sale bin.

Honorable mention - the Sega Saturn gets a lot of "oh, a Saturn!" reactions. It's like the opposite of anything PlayStation related.

1)Final Fantasy III (Snes)-Too much sentimental value to talk about here,but I leave you with this....18 years of warmth for my beloved FF3,never finished it before,in fact my first real girlfriend did along with keeping the game and my virginity..Gonna be thirty its a milestone year I think its time to finish this one and start a new chapter in life.

2)My picture of me @ NWC 1990 prelims or some shit...Just shows I was meant for this shit..

3)Farcry 2,exclusive contents and The Map Maker Book-After all my earlier years in non online map making (meaning making maps for friends at home for non online games) FC2 has reintroduced me to a passion for creating levels with the ability to share them with the world!

As for the Map Maker book thanks to the indepth look of whats even possible with FC2 editor.I probably wouldnt have even stuck it through,which in turn would of never friended any of the contributers to the book!

That in itself is a funny story,I remeber joining a lobby and took a second glance at the gamer tags and then quickly grabbed my FC2 book and seen it was the dudes from the book!
Ive never been sorta star struck before being from Ny and seeing Method Man or Raekwon on a daily basis (lol),but these guys were like my idols I wanted to do what they were doing.Long and behold very nice people and friends accepted making my devotion thus more inevitble.

4)My Working Designs Collection-Last year I was one game away from completeing this set which was Exile 2:Wicked Phenomnon.The game eluded me CIB for the whole year..Never found
So right now as it stands Ill never have a "complete" WD collection,cause between money and Intrest that has changed a bit and sold a nice portion.But I will continue to complete the set for the systems I still own just not TG16CD or Sega CD.

5)My Xseed Collection-Similar to what I did with WD,I abondanded whichever games I didnt own systems for and completed the ones I did have systems for.
I currently have a completed Sealed Xseed collection for PSP,and currently still looking for used ones so I can actually play them

^ Tek, you completely jogged my memory. I love my story around my CIB Final Fantasy III and it's definitely in my top 5.

[dsheinem]

a lot of you people have a funny definition of "item"

[TEKTORO]

@RSG FF3 is bound to have many souls,that was like 1/3 of my sentiment to that game


@dsh most def funny in terms of item,I decided my items as a whole cause I cant just choose one (Wd,Xseed in particular).

5. SNES (Mint, no yellowing) - My favorite system
4. Donkey Kong Country CIB (SNES) - My most played game of all time, very nostalgic
3. Final Fantasy III (SNES) - A great RPG that I found for 3$ at a thrift store
2. Chrono Trigger CIB (SNES) - My favorite RPG
1. Harvest Moon (SNES) - Took me over 10 years to acquire this game at a decent price

Consider my list a work in progress, and in no order:

1) U-Force, mint, box and all

2) FF7, two black label copies, one with misspelling

3) Digital Projector/movie room

4) Ninja Gaiden Trilogy

5) A framed Keith Apicary poster signed by Nathan Barnatt, and personalized. Nathan sent this to me I believe two years ago. It says "To Luke, flip over" on the front, and he wrote a kind and hilarious letter on the back.


These are just off the top of my head.

Awesome

Awesome

He's a guy with a big heart that deserves all the success he's worked so hard for. Nathan's done some incredible things also for a few friends of mine who had a rough year, to say the least. Class act all the way around.

Back on topic, I may own the only power pad that a cat hasn't peed on. Maybe that should go on my list and bump off Ninja Gaiden.
