Nice, we both have "small" collections,I have around 500+ games and 46 consoles (which alot are duplicates).Wish you well on collecting and hope both of us will have big collections in the near future!.Also, could you post some game pics thanks.

[Which Classic Video Game System Sucks the Most]

I haven't played some of the consoles on the list but I haven't played a bad console.Some of you may disagree but I like the Virtual boy and why not add handhelds.The R-zone has no redeeming quality or games.

[xDragonWarrior's collection]

My collection Isn't as big as some of you guy's collection but I'm only 16, so to have 500+ games is a feat.Not shown is my LE 25th Mario Wii with box,White PSVita and Gamecube,Wii and Xbox games What do you think and what should I get more games for or what console should I get next?

 

Edit:Picture with my games didn't come out good so will take another picture later

[Best (and Worst) Arcade Port?]

One of the best: Joust for the 7800. Even better than the arcade version imo.

 

One of the worst: Joust for the NES. Everything about it doesn't work quite right and it looks off. The 2600 port is far superior.

 

Correction, Joust for Williams Arcade Classics for the Game.com is the worst

[Gaming Firsts...]

First RPG for a console:Dragon Stomper( the 2600 via Supercharger)

First handheld with touchscreen/internet capabilities: the game.com

First console with console/handheld incompatibility: the Turboexpress

First handheld/console: Microvision/odyssey

First console with motion controls: The 2600 via Datasoft's Lestick controller( if it dosent count then the XaviXPort)

First killer app for a Videogame: Space Invaders

First console with analog stick: The 1292 Advanced Programmable Video System(yes before the N64 and 5200)

First console with Arcade perfect ports: Neo Geo AES

First console to play other console games: intellivision or Colecovision via System changer/Expansion Module #1

could go on forever

 

 

[How many INDIVIDUAL consoles do you have?]

The Halcyon came from one of the original investors in RDI by way of another collector in New Mexico. I just happened to mention it while buying some other consoles from him and we worked a deal. The VC4000 came from a collector in Germany if I'm remembering right. The fellow that runs the Pong Picture Page website. We did a big deal quite a few years back and that was part of it.

 

may I ask how much you payed for the Halcyon?, i sure people would like to know.

[The ABSOLUTE worst games of all time.]

Can I throw some Barbie games out there? Just because the games are targeted at girls doesn't mean it's okay to skimp on gameplay . . . or fun.

 

But, then again, it is Barbie . . .

 

Eh i guess it's OK, I hate when people say(not you) that educational games like the mario ones are horrible when you have to be a child to appreciate it because a educational game won't have anything a teenager or adult will like in it but in Barbie's case they are HORRIBLE so yeah a contender for one of the worst games ever

you have a RDI halcyon?... :-o :-o :-o :-o :-o So Jealous :-o :-o :-o, where did you find it

and where did you find the Interton Interton VC4000 also?

[Will the Xbox One become the next CD-i?]

No, not even close to CDi.

 

MS has:

Tons of cash

Strong existing fanbase

Track record of good consoles

Strong first party developers

Strong first party franchises

Strong 3rd party relationships (Activision, EA, UbiSoft, etc)

 

What i mean by becoming the next CD-i i mean lagging in sales compared to the Wiiu and PS4 and the fact that it has media capabilities like the CD-i.

[How many INDIVIDUAL consoles do you have?]

I have 46-50 consoles but notices i have alot of repeats. 4 Genesis(1 Model 1 and 3 Model 3), 5 Gameboy Colors, 3 Gameboy Advances, 2 Dreamcasts, 2 Game.coms, 2 PSPs, 2 DS Lites, 2 Rzones(1 head and one XPG), 3 PS2s, 3 PS1s(1 PS1 and 2 PSones), 2 gameboy pockets and originals, the rest i only have one of.Some do you have alot of repeats like i do or do you have alot of individual consoles?

[Genesis Portable 80 in 1, any good?]

Anybody have any advice on the best handheld emulator system? I imagine there must be a thread somewhere but my searches didn't return anything real useful. Just reading around my best options seem to be a dingoo 320/330, or a PSP.

 

Oh and advice on a good place to order one from is appreciated.

 

The PSP is the best way to go.Not only can it emulate lots of retro consoles pretty good but it can also do the PS1 decent and play PSP games and is around the same price range.

[Does Gamestop have enough cash to put out their own console?]

i already see that happening. the stores in my area have phone and tablet sections and they're getting bigger. if they were smart they would revert to being retail for new-gen and an eBay rival for classic systems, which is actually how they started out in the first place.

 

but if they started selling classic consoles then they would be more expensive than Ebay .Just think, $30 for The Legend Of Zelda and $20 for E.T.

[Will the Xbox One become the next CD-i?]

With the hassle of playing used games,a mandatory 24 hour online check,$100 more than the PS4 and $200 more than the Wiiu. it;s just like the CD-i, a game system with media capabilities that's destined to fail.Everybody with no internet will have no choice but to go to Nintendo or Sony(loss of money there), and the people who rarely/never buys new games will go to either Nintendo or Sony(loss of money there) so that's a huge loss to them and a profit to Nintendo and Sony.What do you think, Do you think it may succeed or go the way of the CD-i, a game system that promised much but ultimately failed.

[how do you classify a "bad" console?]

Is the Xbox One a game console? It's being marketed remarkably similar to the CD-I.

[Genesis Portable 80 in 1, any good?]

For $30 more I can get a Dingoo with better quality Genesis as well as other console games.No SD card slot so any games not on the console you wanna, you're outta luck.Still good nevertheless.
