Build an Atari 7800 and A8 "all in one" stand like my NES one. Play more games!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Finally get rid of one or both of the systems I just don't play (Jaguar, Lynx), along with the associated games. Find some more fun but unusual games for the VCS and/or the A8. Keep up with the homebrew scenes for CV, 2600, 7800, and Intellivision.

wolfy62 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I completed my Intellivision collection, so my only thoughts are continuing collecting the Homebrews for it. And maybe, just maybe, trying to complete my Sega Genesis collection, or start collecting for the Atari 7800. enjoy your collecting everyone, and most importantly..... Happy Holidays!

Austin Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Finish off my Dreamcast and Castlevania collections, buy some parts for some of my pinball machines, and invest in my fourth pinball machine. Maybe get a videogame console or two I don't have in my collection, boxed and complete (Virtual Boy, Jag, CD32, something like that).

Christophero Sly Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 (edited) Trim my modern gaming library by at least half, two-thirds would be even better. Also, take a hard look at my classic gaming collection and make some long-term decisions about what I want to keep and what I can let go.

Rhomaios Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 I'm pretty happy with my current collection, but I do have some goals. In no particular order: Get an XM and slowly, slowly, order the best homebrew games from AtariAge. Get my 7800 AV modded Buy a PSP Wistully long for a Turbo Duo Maybe, maybe, get a ColecoVision or 360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serious Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 My main goal is to catalog my Atari 2600 collection and the condition of all the items in it. Since I have not been able to find a condition guide that I like, I created my own in preparation for this. (Available here.) I had already done this a while back for manuals, but now have extended this to boxes and carts as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatPix Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 2014 starts nice. Finding a SCART Intellivision. Finding a Vectrex for a reasonable price. Getting a Commodore 64/128. Getting an Amiga. Finding an RCA Studio II clone. Getting the Saba Videoplay cart N°20 - Chess Playing more games! Done! I dared opening it. OOh yeah. Rather different from all other carts obviously; still it's labeled "Fairchild Memory systems 1978". Is it just a copyright? Or was this cart made by Fairchild/Zircon; and so, does it means that this cart was planned for the US market, maybe even made, but was sold in europe only? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 My goals for 2014... - continue to improve my gameroom - actually play more games*, especially with my 8 year old - catalog and value my collection - attend at least one major convention - finish my Intellivision CIB collection - not miss out on homebrews that I would enjoy - find another Imagic poster or two - get within 5 games of having a complete US released Turbo Grafx collection - condense a great deal of my extra stuff - finish the game I started writing about 5 years ago * I can't believe how many games I've acquired but haven't even played Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconhood Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 -Arcade Cabinet. -UGC of all of my games...making or getting covers is the hardest part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eltigro Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Money is also short... Grow my Jaguar and TurboGrafx collection by buying out the stock at a local store. (It'll probably be over the course of a few paydays, but I don't think that there's much demand for Jag and Turbo games around here.) Get another N64 controller and grow the game collection some. Buy an original Playstation and some memory cards and try to buy back some of the games I had back then. Possibly order a power adapter with the correct ratings so the guys over on the Jaguar board don't send assassins to my house. Wistully long for a Turbo Duo I know what you mean...

+cvga Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 My goals for 2014... I was thinking about the collecting goals thread for 2016 and wanted to see how I did on my 2015 goals. Turned out that I didn't respond to the 2015 goal thread but I took a look at my 2014 post. I'll just assume this was a 2 year plan - continue to improve my gameroom - It's stuffed with stuff now but I think it's marginally better. I framed and hung my 3 SwordQuest t-shirts. I also purchased a watch display case which now show my video game related watches and other smaller items. - actually play more games*, especially with my 8 year old - He'll be 10 next week. We mix it up between some newer stuff (like Mario Karts for the 3DS) and a bunch of Intellivision/Atari games. He really likes to help clean and test carts. - catalog and value my collection Started but unfinished - I moved my lists into a database and have looked up values for lots of carts but there's a long way to go before I could check this one off in good faith. - attend at least one major convention Hmmm, nothing major but I did attend the Cleveland show both of the last two years and CORGs show here in Columbus. - finish my Intellivision CIB collection - got the last boxed game I needed, Word Fun, on Spring Break in Phoenix in 2014 - not miss out on homebrews that I would enjoy - I've been able to acquire most of them in the past two years - find another Imagic poster or two - Yep but always on the lookout for more. Let me know if you have some you're willing to sell or trade! - get within 5 games of having a complete US released Turbo Grafx collection - Within two games: Super Air Zonk and Magical Chase. Will probably stay that way forever! - condense a great deal of my extra stuff - Ugh. I sold a bunch of 2600 games and some Vic 20 carts but I still have tons and tons of stuff that I ought to let go. Maybe in 2016. - finish the game I started writing about 5 years ago - Nope. Other than finding some lost notes, I'm not any closer. Oh well, I guess I'll claim that I'm doing this for Eric in order to slow down my release schedule lol. Not too bad overall. Let's see what 2016 brings... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
