Description:
To celebrate the completion of my console collection (maybe) I decided to make this video. All the systems work and are in pretty good shape. I started collecting seriously in 2006 after watching JamesNintendoNerd on YouTube. At the time, all I had was my PS2 slim. It took me four years to get to this point. I don't make a lot of money, so I had to be patient and look for deals at garage sales, thrift stores, flea markets and classified ads. My general rule was not to spend more than $20 on any one system. I had to bend that rule on occasion for rare systems like the Heavy Sixer, NES Top Loader, and the CDX, otherwise, I think I followed it pretty well.I purchased my shelving at Lowe's or Home Depot...I can't remember which. Basically, all I had to do was fasten a metal track at the top and attach three support beams. Pretty easy.EDIT: I've been getting a lot of questions like, "Why don't you have a (insert system here) or a (insert system here)?" Forgive me, I should have explained this in the video.By and large I only own systems that I came into contact with at some point during my childhood. Some I owned before but a lot of them I just played at a friends house or at Toys R Us. There are other great systems not on these shelves, but since I don't have any personal attachment to them, they are no in my collection. In a sense, I am collecting my memories, not just systems. Thanks for watching!

May 18, 2012 - Oh i'm jealous you! Congratulations for your collection! Not long back i started getting Fascinated AGAIN by the old Consoles and the Retro Computers. I got again a PS1 for 3€ after like a decade without one,and i'll get a 5€ Ps2 because mine broke. I had an IBM AT which i did the mistake to throw and i'm looking for a 5150. Also consoles like Atari 2600,Nes,Snes,Sega,only those that would be in use because i have limited space in a house i was considering huge!
vintagevideogamegeek Says:
May 18, 2012 - Thanks! I would love to get into retro computers but I just don't have the space either!

May 18, 2012 - I am thoroughly impressed with how you've organized and displayed your consoles. That's something I've been mulling over for myself and it looks great. Zip-Lock organizing system does wonders haha. Also, great work on your new podcast, looking forward to many more episodes.

Apr 17, 2012 - This kind of attitude right here is partly why I left the PC-Engine community.If you don't have anything with a HuC6280 CPU in it or a NeoGeo or Japanese Saturn, you just don't fit in.Those people are so arrogant and snobby that it's ridiculous!I put my Turbo Duo back in storage because of this crap and turned all of my TG16 games facing the wall so, that I don't have to look at them.My Sega Dreamcast is now taking up residence in the Duo's old spot and looking great while doing so!
