Wasting my money.

How bad do I want to play GTA4 when it comes out next week?

Yesterday I purchased a PS3 for that sole purpose.

So now I have 10 different game systems

(In chronological order)

TurboDuo
JVC X'eye (Genesis/segacd) + 32x
3DO
Saturn
Dreamcast
PS2
GameCube
Xbox
Wii
PS3


P.S. My nick on Playstation Network is Dynamite_7 in case anyone is interested.

you made the wrong decision buying a PS3, should have got a 360. 
(... unless you like MGS4, thats the reason i'll buy a PS3 in th future)

as far as the systems go i feel your pain:

Nintendo
NES x2, SNES, N64, GCN, Wii, GB x2, GBP, GBC, GBA, GBAsp, NDS, NDS lite
Sega
SMS, Genesis, Genesis (2nd model), Sega CD, Sega 32X, Saturn, Dreamcast x2, GG, Nomad
Sony
PS, PSone, PS2, PSP
Other
Xbox, Xbox360, NeoGeoPocketColor


all of us videogamers have a very exspensive hobby

[Vt102]

I got the PS3 thru work. I get a combo deal discount.

PS3 + extra controller + 2 year warranty for $439.99

The Xbox360 they offer was only the arcade version, and I didn't want to spend another 60+ on a HD.

I would have rather gotten a 360.. trust me! But it was a really god deal!


P.S.

To be more exact.. I have 4 Dreamcasts and 2 SegaCD/Genesis combos + the X'eye (so 3 SegaCD/Genesis) =)

Im sorry is that 42 N64 consoles?......

one question......WHY??



P.S. Na.. Im only getting the regular edition.. I could case less for backpacks and safety deposit boxes.

[makeshiftknight]

Yeah, that's 42 N64 consoles... I had a cousin (who I didn't know was my cousin at the time) who had a game store. He got a divorce, and was forced into closing the store. I showed up during the last 2 days of the store closing sale, hung out far to long, found out our relation, and ended up with everything he didn't sell for around $350. Basically. Anyway, I don't really have any use for the bag and box either, and I REALLY should NOT blow the money on it, but, it could be worse, I could be addicted to heroine, or meth instead of games... Right? Anyway, congrats on the PS3. Not a LOT of games for it yet, but Uncharted is fun, and I snagged my copy for $10 on Ebay, and Motorstorm is awesome, and cheap on Ebay. Heard Ratchet and Clank is good, but haven't played it... It'll get it's share of fun! Plus, it sounds like you got a good deal on it! So, is the Xeye like the Sega CDX? I've never seen one, and the only articles I can find don't mention a U.S. release. It sounds like the same thing, only made by JVC rather than Sega, but like I said, never seen it.

[tiktektak]

Where's the Neo Geo Home makeshift? And you're missing an CD32 too....


Other than that very nice console collection...

[dmc1974]

WOW! I thought I was the only one who had this disease until I found this site!  My wife is constantly trying to get me to git rid of all my systems, but I'll never cave!

Nes, Super Nes, N64, GameCube, GameBoy, GameBoy Color, GameBoy Advance(2), Sega Master, Sega Genesis, Sega CD, 32x, Sega Saturn, Sega Game Gear, Sega Dreamcast(Black and White), TurboGrafx 16, Panasonic 3DO, PS1, PS2, XBOX, XBOX 360, Atari Lynx

And at last count 819 games

The JVC X'eye

Genesis and sega cd all in one.. It also has a microphone jack on the side and CD+G compatibility.. In other words karaoke!!

[Hero's Shade]

Vt102: There's also the fact that he has 42 Playstations.

Game Boy Micros rock. Don't bash them until you try them.

GBA (3)
GB Micro (2)
NDS
Neo Geo Pocket Colour
Sega Game Gear

Master System 2 (Cart only)
Megadrive (MK1)
SNES
Saturn
PS1

Wii
XBox 360


Also got my old Commodore Amiga, and a couple ZX Spectrums (2 x rubber key 48k, 1 x 128k, 1 x Spectrum +3 with disk drive)

That list is looking pretty long.......no wonder i keep getting in trouble for having my crap laying around 

[soulfirebang]

well, I'm raising some cash to expand my gaming consoles and games, but right now, at this very moment I have:
Xbox 360 (about 7 games)
PS2 (5 games)
Wii (8 games)
Gamecube (4 games)
Gameboy color (3 games)
Gameboy Advance (regular model and SP) (4 games)
Nintendo DS (Both "Phat" and Lite models) (6 games)

yeah, not very much, but try considering I don't get much cash, so this is OK for now.

[KaiserWAVE]

I was going the same route you guys are going but then I decided to cut down my collection. I sold my N64, Game Boy Micro, Nintendo DS amd Neo Geo CD. Also sold the PS1 but I kept the games.

Right now I own

NES (7 games)
SNES (34 games)
Mega Drive (21 games)
Dreamcast (27 games)
PS2 (45 PS1 games, 40 PS2 games)
Gamecube (29 games)
Xbox (21 games)
Xbox 360 (21 games)
Wii (6 games)

I wanted to buy a PS3 but then I bought a stand alone Blu-ray player and apart from Uncharted the PS3 has nothing that I'm interested in.
