Appear in gamesTM

[Strider]

Right then chaps, I mentioned this a while back and it's finally going ahead. I'm looking for people who are proud of their coveted retro collections (anything upto dreamcast) and want to show them off to the world.

All you need to do is submit some decent pictures (quality is obviously important, we want them to look good) send in a photo of yourself and be prepared to answer a few questions about your hobby and Bob's yoor uncle.

You dont mean my coveted Stamp collection do you?

[Tom Salter]

I can get a fairly big PS2/DC collection. 40 PS2 games and 30-35 Dreamcast ones (all jpn). I'm sure others have more

[VR46]

Is it just consoles or are Speccy and the like included ?

It's everything mate, the more the better. Neo Geo Colour Pockets are included as well

[Mayhem]

Right, best get on and get some photos done, though it won't be until the weekend. I suppose you'll want a pic of Ultima:Mount Drash too won't you?

[Tom Salter]

I also have a Neo Geo AES with 9 carts, 25-ish GC games and **** all on Xbox because it's ****

their coveted retro collections (anything upto dreamcast)

/me slaps Strider.
Look Dreamcast isn't retro
/me slaps Strider again
New games are still being developed and sold (in Japan)
/me slaps Strider again just so the message comes home
Leave the Dreamcast out of it, you you Playstation fanboy you.
/me slaps Strider with a copy of 'PIZZICATO POLKA'
Look a game that was released last week
/me slaps Strider again using the reverse side
Look official Dreamcast title... Not Retro got it?

and Bob's yoor uncle.

And what if Bob isn't you uncle? Could be Clive, Jack, Alan, Trip or Steve.

356 Mega Drive, 184 Saturn, 162 PC Engine, 108 Mega CD (excludes a box sets), 97 Super Famicom, 78 Neo Geo CD, 72 Playstation, 35 MSX, 22 Famicom, 13 Neo Geo, 11 FM Towns Marty, 9 Game Gear, 9 Sega Mark III, 8 Super 32X, 5 Neo Geo Pocket, 4 PC-FX, 3 Wonderswan Colour, 3 Pokemon Mini, 2 Gameboy, 3 Wonderswan Color, 1 Fujitsu FM-7, 1 PC-8801 - A tiny 1,186ish games.

dog with a bone...

I really hope you're going to feature people who have interesting and well looked after collections and not just piles of carboot sale fodder such as unboxed Megadrive and SNES games etc.

[Strider]

Yes, yes, yes.

You're quite right, the DC isn't retro

However, as far as the majority of our readers are concenred it is, so in it goes.

As for a cut off date, it's a new monthly feature where the lucky individual will get a whole (well 3/4) page all to theirselves. So what are you all waiting for?
