In a way, I think I understand full set collecting. The idea of being able to play any game that was released on a console on a whim is kind of neat, but the whole "games THAT I'M NEVER GOING TO PLAY" part is why I would never go for this myself. I'm not knocking what you're doing. It's just an interesting concept to me, kind of like VGA. I wouldn't want to collect games I don't want to or can't play, but I find it to be an interesting collecting goal that people go for. It is neat to see the overall picture of a complete collection spread out on a wall or shelf when a person has the space to display properly.

Nice. Spotted you have an I-que. Did you ever work out how to get games onto it?

To be fair I've not even tried mine.

Had an ok tax return. Gamestop's running a deal for $125 credit on a 250gb 360 towards an Xbone. I have extra 360s not in use from craigslist deals so I did the deal. Gamestop was out of MCC bundle, but the only difference is the box which I decided I don't care about. They still honored the deal with a standard green box system and a download code for MCC on the receipt. Price for the system and MCC out the door was $253 after the trade in. I got the 360 for $60 with a 320gb hard drive so after swapping my data to the bigger hard drive, it worked out.

Before picking up, I found a dude on craigslist that was selling/trading off his physical games to go all digital. We met at Gamestop and did a straight trade for my download code for his physical copy of Halo MCC, and I bought GTA 5 off him for $45.

So far I've just been installing games and updating and haven't played anything yet. These are the games I bought.

First complaint: X1 is a behemoth. There's no way this beast will fit into the setup without removing a console unless I stack the Wii U on the X1. Can this damage either console? The Wii U is resting on the unvented portion of the X1. All vents of both consoles are unblocked and open. I don't intend to run both at the same time, though there's a possibility my son may want to use the Wii U while I'm playing X1.

After playing console tetris trying to integrate this huge whale into the set up, I googled 'safe to put Wii U on Xbox One' and found this neogaf thread:

The consensus is quite mixed, with about half of the opinion it can damage both/either consoles and that electronics should never be stacked, and the other half saying it's fine.

Is this ok? I don't want to break anything.
