About Me
Welcome to my about me page.
I've taken a few steps back since my last update here on Atari Age, namely I have been spending quite a bit of time on emulation, in particular the NES, Super NES, Mega Drive (Genesis), and Atari 2600. I also decided to part with my Xbox One in favor of older gaming, which in general, I seem to be better at. I still have my old Atari 2600, Intellivision, and Xbox 360 (in case I get the urge for some Bioshock or Diablo 3), but most of the time now I play older games (RPG's and fighting games, surprisingly, since I never really liked fighting games before).
There are some interesting small hobby shops around me that have older classic items and collectibles, which is a nice change from going to Gamestop (which I haven't stepped into for at least 3 years). I also have been trying to collect boxed games just to say I "have" them, and recently picked up about a dozen Genesis games complete. I also tried to resurrect an old model one Genesis, but no success. It makes a good collector's piece, though, and looks great on my gaming shelf!
I snagged a Wii awhile back, and have a few games for that that I enjoy (Super Mario Bros Wii, Wii Sports, Metroid), and probably will try to collect for that some time down the road. I put up lots of plushies and Mario stuff in my gaming cave, so it's nice and "retro" there when I'm gaming.
