Michael-5 said: I agree with the bold Actually I made a deal with myself. I can buy any retro game I want, as long as I buy it with the profits I make selling games I find at garage sales. Made over $800 over 4 saturdays, and I bought quite a lot recently with it. I'm just not interested in too much on the Genesis, or at least I don't know what I'd like. Ultimate Collection is a good starting place for me, I'll buy any game I like, but not until I get those 50 or so SNES/Saturn/PS1/N64/PS2 games, and only with my garage sale profits. |
My PS2 collection was stolen years ago. My sega genesis used to be at my grandmothers house, and I played it there when I was for a visit. So, it was completely safe. She's passed now, so my genesis is with me for like it was waaay back in the early '90s. I always did update my home collection. When '94 came around I upgraded to saturn and left my genesis over to my grandparents.
I don't know if it's a downside or not, yet, but, due to what I did with my genesis, every time I power it up, I remember them. Don't feel bad or anything like that, though, everyone passes and moves on eventually.
Anyway, with my PS2 collection of 47 games, I cannot remember the games I owned. I replaced about 5 of them, recovered another 5 and bought a new game I didn't previously own. Xenosaga. Which is the only PS2 game I've completed after my collection was stolen. Honestly, ever since that happened, I've lost my spark for PS2 game. I don't enjoy them, and can't sit through them anymore.
But, I took my time with Xenosaga, I probably didn't beat it until last year.
I love my genesis, though I have lots of good games, and still more to get. I don't have any "batman: forevers" in my wishlist, lol. I just want to experience things I missed out on growing up. And, no joke, I'll be able to wait for PS4 while i play my genesis and new games. I don't have it reserved, so I'm going to wait a while.
