    NOTE: changed to reflect only non-retail items to keep the list short. :)

    similar thread was on gamefaq xbox section recently and I thought why not expand and include other consoles as well. It could be any thing related to game consoles - such as flush toys, games, magazines, promos, etc. - as long these were NOT offered at retail. Otherwise the list can be too long.

    I will start with mine.

  2. Hey DJ898, could I trouble you for some pics of that Turok/Violent Killer demo cart? They don't have to be anything fancy, I just want to know what the thing looks like in case I ever come across one.

    I don't have much in the way of rare items, but here's what I do have:

    [Dreamcast]
    Boxed Pop'n Controller
    Nakoruru Box Set with figurine
    Eternal Arcadia Box Set
    Metropolis Street Racer white label beta
    Virtua Fighter 3TB first printing with Project Berkely CD

    [Sega Saturn]
    Sega Screams Vol. 1 Demo Disc

    [Nintendo 64]
    Neon Green Controller (seems to be fairly uncommon anyways)

    [Playstation 2]
    Front Mission 4 Demo Disc
    R-Type Final Dog Tag
    Dance Dance Revolution Max 2 promo poster
    Dance Dance Revolution Extreme Premium CD (music)

    [Gameboy Advance]
    Famicom GBA
    Mr. Saturn Wrist Strap (preorder bonus from Mother 1+2)

    [Nintendo Gamecube]
    Rogue Squadron 3: Rebel Strike demo disk
    Tales Of Symphonia preorder lithograph

    And I think that's it. Nothing too terribly impressive or rare, I'm afraid...

    .

    rather than me having to pull it out of garage I will see whether I still have the snap shot she gave to me. It will be rather small size as she shrink the size to send it via e-mail.

    from memory it has scale in background with a eye - like Turok except the writing is Violent Killer. It doesn't look like SFC demo cart - quite professional looking and from what I read it was sent out to shops to be used as trailer for Turok/Violent killer before its release in Japan.

    cheers

    .

    where do you keep all that mate?
    one reason I'm forced to sell many of my collection is I no longer keep paying for the storage company nor missus is willing to put up with all the boxes in house... :(

    Re: .

    I just moved into liveable quarters. After 6 years in a box, I think I deserve it. Honestly though -- most of it is CD cased games if you look. I've got 5 systems in a nice little metal entertainment center, w/ the controllers stored away, so they don't make a mess. The other systems are in the closet. It really doesn't take up that much room.

    I seriously doubt it. Last time I did that, they wound up all over the net. I'd only do it for another proto, they I recieved/tested first. Saturn Shenmue comes to mind. :)

    About the only rare promo item I have is the PS2 online starter kit that was a gag sent out by Microsoft. You can read about what it is here,

    http://ps2.ign.com/articles/369/369054p1.html?fromint=1

    I also get some free swag from Sony's Gamer Advisery Panel which is nice of them (no betas yet though :smt022 ) and since I work at a video store I get all the insert codes for the Gamecube games to get stuff from Nintendo.
