Hey, everyone. It feels nice to be here. I've read from this site for years, I'm not sure why I took so long to join. I'm not overly sociable so I don't post on any forums daily, but I do have a bit of a passion for games that started as a 5-year old in 1987 with the NES at home and Punch-Out!! in arcades. I've been on various arcade forums since '08 (started arcade collecting in '05) but this is the first forum that I've joined that is predominately console-based. I never got rid of any of my consoles growing up and I continued to play them all on-and-off over the years. I used to purchase games for older systems in phases every couple/few years, but acquiring an RGB monitor a couple years back has really had me on a mission to complete my pursuit of a "finalized" console collection. I don't buy games for the sake of collecting and I'm not interested in having a complete collection for any console, nor do I intend to own every console. However I am the kind of person who is constantly working to improve the gaming experience, at the moment I'm working on buying the "last few games" for a few different consoles and acquiring box art files for game cases and manuals for about half of my NES and SNES games. Peace, NOAH
No problemo. Here it is in the order I got 'em: -Punch-Out!! -Street Fighter II: The World Warrior (Dedicated Dynamo HS-5 cabinet with New Old Stock artwork all around, runs Hyper Fighting also) -Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Super Off-Road (3-player model, also have Track Pak pcb and marquee for it) -NBA Jam (also runs Tournament Edition) -Killer Instinct -X-Men (4-player version, runs 5 pcb's simultaneously including X-Men, Simpsons, TMNT, TMNT: Turtles in Time, Captain America and the Avengers, Ninja Baseball Batman, Bomberman World, Captain Commando and WWF Wrestlefest) -Smash TV (25" model) -Paperboy -Mad Planets -Space Harrier (stationary sitdown model, has the original seat frame but the chair itself is missing) -Capcom Q25 cabinet (2P horizontal with Q-Sound amplifier, for CPS2 and CPS3 titles) -Sega Astro City cabinet (horizontal 1P, for side-scrolling shmups and action platformers) -2x Konami Windy cabinets (both vertical 1P, for shmups) -Sega Net City cabinet (Horizontal 2P, for Sega Naomi titles) -Sega Astro City 2 cabinet (horizontal 2P, for puzzle games and 2P action games/beat-em-ups)
Not to derail an introduction thread, but would you mind me asking how much you paid for Killer Instinct?
