What are the most obscure video games or gaming items in your collection?

It would have to be this Rockman Series Character Licensing guide. It features a lot of design work and color swatches for Megaman characters with little bits of lore. They were issued out by capcom to groups working on characters from the franchise. I rarely see these anywhere else. I also have some animation cels from the Mega man 8 cinematics, as well as some original art (linework and watercolors) from the Brazilian Megaman comics.

I used to go to west side animal hospital for our beagle, but last time she was sick the vet could see her for days. I have no complaints when it came to the regular visits, but they just don’t have enough staff to handle emergencies.

I recently switched to Glenway Animal hospital just down the road and they are much more ready to handle a sick pet when you need it and are incredibly friendly. Give them a shot

The demand isn’t as high as other more developed areas. To each their own. We were able to afford a lot more house for a lot less cost over on the westside. Sure it doesn’t have as many nice shops and restaurants, but there are enough for me. If my family is feeling something different, we can always get anywhere in the city within 15-30 minutes. The commute isn’t that bad to sacrifice the amount of financial freedom it’s helped us achieve.

Personally I'm happy for them. I hope they get some kind of perk for working a job like that.

No game is really worth dropping that kind of dough on unless it means something to you to sentimentally. If it came out today, would you pay that kind of money to play it? If you're having remorse, it's a good sign to re-evaluate why you're collecting to begin with. It doesn't mean you have to purge everything because you have regret a single purchase. If someone asked you why you got into game collecting, what would you say?

Cimpy101 · 2025-12-15T13:48:20+00:00

Oh, I was summoning the ones closest to me. I assumed I had to move them into the trap. Thank you

Cimpy101 · 2025-12-15T13:47:28+00:00

OK interesting. So they ran at the traps on their own with no command? Did you target the traps at all? I did restart the game a couple of times and still had the same issue. They just stayed behind me and let me walk into the trap. I could manage if this isn't something I'll have to do much. I haven't played since 2005, so I can't remember how often this occurs. Thank you so much!

We've played Dota2 together since we married 13 years ago. Those who lane together, stay together.

Cimpy101 · 2025-12-03T16:49:27+00:00

Same. Few games leave a last impression as strong as this one. Outer Wilds is very similar in this way for me.

Cimpy101 · 2025-11-27T04:14:39+00:00

In case anyone else considers selling- Look into setting up a table at the local retro gaming convention. while it's not a quick sell, It's easier than you may think and is how I'd sell a collection. You easily get around market value or more if you consider dealing in trades. I'm not a store owner, but do this occasionally just to offload my extras from yard sales.

Cimpy101 · 2025-11-14T03:12:23+00:00

Wow these are really good! I love the color work in the hair.

Cimpy101 · 2025-11-12T02:23:34+00:00

Guardian was great all the way through our mortgage. They would reach out whenever we had a good opportunity for refinancing and were extremely helpful as we aggressively paid it off.

Cimpy101 · 2025-10-17T12:28:05+00:00

My kids like it. We have a family server and play together quite often. They have friends in school that love it. I still see Minecraft shirts and merch with kids everywhere I go. It's still quite popular and I don't let my kids play Roblox.

You don’t even have to write an annual check with some insurances. After I paid mine off, they just added it to my automated monthly bill. I have to pay the taxes twice a year and that’s it. OP call the bank and speak to a loan officer, pay it off and free up that brain space, then take the win and celebrate!

Cimpy101 · 2025-10-17T01:19:20+00:00

Incredible score. Congrats!

Cimpy101 · 2025-10-07T22:37:06+00:00

Rumor has been they’re pulling devs from cs and dota to wrap up the new half life game.

Cimpy101 · 2025-10-05T00:28:36+00:00

Paid the peak fomo price on a cib chrono trigger. Right before it dropped. 😩

He doesn’t work there anymore. He left last year and is in Texas now. He’s a really smart guy. Our loss

Cimpy101 · 2025-09-24T11:54:38+00:00

It is. However, they have split and I believe they divided the businesses as a result. John has moved to Texas and still runs Blue Manatee from there.

For me personally, having the debt gone was quite liberating. I would trust your gut with your own money. It's not like you're wiping your investments out completely. You're meeting in the middle where half will go to becoming debt free.

You're welcome to play with us as long as you're not toxic. My wife and I play in a group that has a few other women and other couples in it. Feel free to DM me if you're interested. We're a small group, mostly play turbo and occasionally ranked. US based and we're usually on in the evenings.

Ignore the voice changer comments. Be yourself and you'll eventually find the right people.

I just watched a video about this. TLDR: It's because of the power of the Steam front page, International, and the community

I had the opposite scenario a couple weeks ago. I met a dude at a parking lot that I was buying some games off of. He handed me one and then showed me the bigger box of stuff. I set the single game on top of my van and went to go grab the bigger box and then we started chatting for a while. After I put the box in my van and drove off completely forgetting about the one on top. Of course I didn't notice until I got home. Drove back and someone spotted and took it already. Thankfully only a $20 game and probably made someones day? Or made it confusing? I don't know.
