    Now I have figured out how to use that Imageshack thing, I guess I should post some pictures of my collection!

    These are the first few shelves, and were taken on a SE K800i, so the quality is a bit shit, but anyway.

    I have just got into Gameboy collecting in a big way, and am on a mission to get as many as I can (amazing it took this long for me to get round to it, as I have been collecting Advance stuff since it came out)!
    Love that Extreme Green one!

    I have also got round to adding to my Virtual Boy collection, after getting the system and sealed copies of Tetris 3D, Mario Clash and Warioland about six years ago! Christ knows why I ever opened those games, they have literally be played once, but the deal was amazing back in the day (I got these three, plus the VB which I think must also have been new for about £90!)

    Here is the Advance stuff I mentioned before ;-)

    Yep, every issue of Retro Gamer, including the DVD's, I actually bought these from the shop from issue one, no eBay madness.
    I also have every Edge, right the way back from when I was in college back in '93, and a couple of months ago I finally got issue 53 of Ace magazine, which completes that now as well!

    I can pretty much tell the story of my life in Edge mags, where I was in education, where I was working, my mates, girlfriends... It's strange, but I can seriously pick up a copy and know what I was doing at the time from the cover!

    Also got all the issues of Complete Guide to Consoles, Mean Machines (before it split), Maximum, GamesTM.
    Only other mag I bothered with is a few Next Gen here and there, some Your Sinclairs and Atari Users... Incredible to think that I first bought some of those 25 years ago and they have survived my childhood and teens, moving out of my parents into renting, into my own home and four young kids over the past few years!!!

    First mag I ever bought was a Computer and Video Games with a Thompson Twins flexi record on the front! This would have been around 82/83. The record needed copying to a tape, one side for C64, the other Spectrum. I had a Vic20, and being around seven, thought the 64 version would work on my Vic as they were both Commodore!!!

    When I started Secondary School back in 1988 they had a few binders of C+VG, going back to issue one! I really wish I had liberated those now, you can bet they were binned when they did the Library up at some point as they were well out of date by then!
