I'm 16 and I LOVE retro videogames so I wanna make a Videogame informational book that covers all consoles(I mean all!) from virtually forgotten consoles like the Casio PV-1000,RDI Halcyon,Roller Videocolor,Epoch Cassette Vision and Pc engine GT to the more commonly known consoles like the Nes,Atari 2600,Dreamcast,Genesis,PS1 to the newest console out(don't know when this will be realeased).So I'm asking you where should I get my information(becuse this Is definitely not coming out of my head and of course to gather and alter information In my own words),what extra should I include,price etc I will include: .A picture of each console .10 or 20 games that defined the console(exception when the console has less than 10 or 20 games) .notable features that were ahead of It's time(Snes and Genesis Xband,Intellivision Playcable,Dreamcast Internet right out of the box,Atari 2600 wireless joysticks,Atari 2600 Lestick controller,Game.com Internet and touch screen capabilities Lynx's unheard of graphics,Vetrex's Vector graphics etc) . Short reviews of the consoles(I will allow anybody here If they want to, a short review of the console and their review be In the book .In the back of the book,Videogame terms and historical figures and their definitions/Bio(full page bios and terms like Shump,JRPG,Blast processing!,mode 7 Nolan Bushnell,Shigeru Miyamoto,Gunpei Yokoi etc) .Gems In the consoles library(Input will be accepted) .proto consoles/games and significant and revolutionary games(The Supercharger's Dragon Stomper,The legend of Zelda,Sonic,Ocarina of time,Goldeneye 007,Doom,Death Race,Gran Turismo,Good luck charlie brown,Sonic Xtreme,Sega Neptune/Pluto,Atari Panther,Atari Video system X,Atari Comos etc. .mysteries In the Videogame Industry(Atari Mexico landfill burials etc) Would you buy a book with this type of Information and If so,how much?Any Input about what I should add to the project and your thoughts are appreciated!

Sorry double post but Answer mine aswell as Satoshi Matrix's. Watching a movie online or popping It In the actual VHS/DVD (Which do you like better) when you had Kids or no kids(for the married ones) Preservation of rare Videogames or F It and play em like they were ment to be Marvel or DC Nintendo or Sega(company or console wise) New style of music or the old style(classic for the people who hate to be reminded that there old) Legos or Megablocks Batman,Superman or Spider-man(the mans!) 2D or 3D fighting Marvel vs. Capcom or Street Fighter vs Tekken(the epic crossovers) Ice cream or cake Your videogames or your wife/girlfriend(yes I went there)

Remakes I been watching Pokemon since I was little and know more about them but Digimon are cooler and stronger First person shooter Both Short replayable games because isn't that what retro games are(except RPG's and some exceptions) Physical because I can't put a Digital game on my shelves nor admire their beauty now can I Cheat codes when unlocking the Item/character/weapon/level/vehicle Is a pain and unlockable bonuses when there easy to get Fan translations because some really good RPG's were not released In the us and with fan translations,you can play them without knowing Kanji, etc

If I had 38 bookcases...36 of them would be empty!

Not too pricey,there's one for 69 and all 3 for 70 on Ebay(but that's without the instruction and comic) butt F it,it's about how much it is on Ebay,it's about if you will enjoy the game and be happy with your purchase.

PM alo sent

I really want a Neo Geo Pocket Color but they are sorta high.Hoping someone could give me a good deal on one.Thanks!

Fairchild Channel F was the first

Multiple is more than one so multiplayer is MORE THAN ONE which means that Sonic 2 IS a multiplayer game(by definition).Pong can support up to two players at a time so would you call that singleplayer? Also Goldeneye(N64) Perfect Dark(N64) Mario kart double dash(GC) Pong Hyper Street Fighter 2(because street fighter 2 is for losers) Marvel vs Capcom 2 Halo 2(Xbox) Streets of Rage(all)

The link to GCstar is for the installer and you don't need a code or script for it to work.You can also change the shelf background color and add your own data(ntsc,pal,US,Japanese etc) B

The software is called GCstar:http://wiki.gcstar.org/en/Install and I currently use it.The reason why I use GCstar instead of cataloging them with Excel is that with GCstar,you have a virtual shelf and when you add a game,It's cover goes on the shelf(a virtual version of your shelves).it does everything excel can do and more. It also catalogs board games,books,comics,computer software,mini vehicles,movies,music,numismatic(coins),periodicals,smart cards,stamps and TV shows.It even picks tonight's game(just picked Perfect Dark for me)There also is an android version so you can make sure you don't by the same game twice which also has a scanner that makes cataloging faster and easier.Try this software and tell me your opinion.I think it's the best way of cataloging your games if you don't already have thousands of games cataloged in excel or another program What are some of your ways you catalog your collection?..

Please original or nothing!(I know that is pretty much impossible but i can dream can't i)

Sonic X-treme anyone(how to camera is moving)???

I would get a Wiiu and go back in time and while everybody's playing the Odyssey i can make them jealous with the Wiiu .I'd also have Menavision make me a sh*tload of Air raid cartridges and sell them for a sh*tload of money to piss people off.bring the first man on earth to the future so he can see what it's like.Bring dinosaurs from the past to see if Man can kill all of them(I'd go crazy if this was possible).

Does anyone have a Wonderswan Color or Ngage they can sell me.prices are sorta high on Ebay and was wondering if i could get a fair deal for one here.

F*** the future of gaming,it's last generation and older or nothing(Except the Wiiu and PS4 if they don't screw up).Microsoft and their bullshit
