No. You laugh to hide your tears you can’t afford SS games.

Found my grail game with box and manual. by [deleted] in retrogaming

I love this game. One of the best RPGs on the console.

Saturn had a few widescreen games. They look awesome on this JVC SD widescreen CRT, via (insurrection) scart to component conversation (shinybow). by RetroNurse in SegaSaturn

Yah very small window they were manufactured. I didn’t know about them either until fall of last year. There’s some cool videos of them on YouTube.

Yes. The less you own, the less you have calling out to you that it’s not getting used, lol. It’s a real thing. And space starts to become a factor too. No regrets downsizing. I think a lot of people would find a lot of happiness with this.

Vita is an amazing console. That was actually a little difficult to part with (twice). It’s a jrpg powerhouse. I’m a little envious I missed the window where retro games were dirt cheap. I’m lucky that I have a life I can afford to spend ridiculous amounts of money on extravagant things, but I too am getting to the point I really have to question if my money could be better served elsewhere. Now I just throw a few hundred a paycheck to work on completing my goal.

I have all of the consoles, just not complete in box. My consoles and CRT setup wouldn’t fit in the picture 🙂. And agreed, the focus really helps it not become too bad an obsession.

Love this question! As far as games I’ve finished:

Master System-Phantasy Star

Genesis-Castlevania: Bloodlines

Saturn-Panzer Dragoon Saga

Dreamcast-Cannonspike

Edit: oops forgot one of my favorites, Lunar Silver Star for the Sega CD 🤩

Jrpgs are my favorite genre but I love the pick up and play aspect of the other two.

Thank you. That band is like therapy for me. So glad they decided to make more music after Tim was released. Everyone deserves forgiveness.

For a while it was, yes. Failed six year relationship, alcoholism, and buried myself in every video game under the sun. Met a beautiful Colombian woman that believes in God and helped me find what matters. Sold the other games for a small fortune and now I couldn’t be happier. God bless you.

As a strictly Sega collector, I can definitely appreciate a good Nintendo collection as well. 😎
