TheValeman's piddly N64 collection .....

[TheValeman]

for what it's worth ..... 66 carts now all boxed in Universal game cases .....

[wshbrngr]

Well, I think it looks pretty good.
Nice job.
I think you need some nice new shelves,,, never know how the collection may grow

[TheValeman]

Yeah .... and we need a US Dark Rift box scanned to get rid of that ugly PAL box on the shelf and jerry Mcgrath Supercross 2000 as well ....that being the only box on the shelf without a cover of some sort

[tiktektak]

Nice.... Very nice.... 

[The Game]

I'd say that's very nice for an N64 collection. I have... five.

Great job on the cases.

[Backlash]

Looking good.  Now we just need to do something about that whole blue spine vs green spine thing    J/K

PS: My cousin said he'd finally send me that pic - I haven't forgotten.

[TheValeman]

Okay .... I got hassled by wshbrngr to get them out of the cupboard so I cleaned out one shelf and threw them on there .... to find they only just fit. And that's only 66 games ... I'm gonna need more shelf space.

66 N64 games all lined up? Mate, that looks just sooo sweet!

[wshbrngr]

First off, we both need more shelf space.
Second, They look much better, much happier   

You could always do like I am doing, move one of the offspring and make their room into a game room.
Now, if I could just find a cocktail galaga game....   

[TheValeman]

Well ..... once you've sent my son home from clearing your bazillion acre ranch you can convert the outhouse he's staying in into one of those virtual game cabinets where you're surrounded by games on all sides 

Seriously though .... you sorta dont realise the space they take up on a shelf when you have them packed in a box or cupboard eh!!

[wshbrngr]

No, I seriously underestimated how much room they all take up and had to adjust the shelving several times, and I am again out of room... 

[Lish]

I happen to have a Galaga cocktail.  Built it with my own two hands.  Blood , sweat and toil.  I was so glad when it was all over.

Then came the pleading, crying, begging from the little brother "I want one.  Please" (OK, he's 34, divorced and remarried, but will always be my kid brother...and tends to behave like one).  So more blood sweat and tears and then I have to drive accross three states to deliver it (two of which were bigger than texas. It was a round trip of 4,200km or about 2,600 miles over four days). I don't think he has ever said thankyou

Love your N64 Collection Valeman.  The N64 remains my favourite console (although the little lady just bought me a Wii for my birthday yesterday and this may be a contender).  I also appreciate that thanks to you, wshbrngr and others I now save AU$10 on each game I buy from the local game shop, as this is the premium they charge for the wrinkly old cardboard box (cover).  I now can buy the carts alone.

Oh. and 3 nil to the black caps.  Your lying so and so Valeman.  You promised me they would be the black craps.  My wife (beautiful, wonderfull mum, and avid cricket and sports lover - a.k.a. perfect) actually cried when that six was hit with 5 balls to go.  Look like some of your tail enders must have some french blood in them, with the strange way they where cutting the ball and all.

[TheValeman]

ROFLMAO ...... 

Yeah ..... I almost turned the TV off when we were 45-4 ut I actually thought "They know they're stuffed so I bet they have a slugfest just to see how far they get" and what do you know ...... kapow x heaps = we won.

You could knock me over with a feather .... actually .... most of the country. Still .... I reckon Aussie will be back to their best at World Cup.

We still have a lot of N64 games to get covers for. wshbrngr and I are wieghing them up at present ... but there's so many we can't afford to do it quickly .... a lot are hard to get and are costly as a result. And I just bought a new PC case [ so I put more than 2 HDD's in it ] so it'll be a few weeks before I'm able to start buying games again.

[Lish]

Well, I have seen a list of what you are missing.  If I see any, I'll buy them, if I can afford them.  You keep bagging Pal covers so I am not sure if this will be what you want.  I cant see much difference between the Aussie PAL covers and the US covers.  Do you mean the Euro covers which come mostly in plain covers, without the blue/green/red combination cover?

[wshbrngr]

TheValeman and I are working away at the N64 covers.
Eventually we would like to have both PAL & NTSC covers.

He provided a lot of the PAL covers, but then sold off all his PAL games and system and got an NTSC N64. There are some differences, Dark Rift is a good example. Its not so much the front and rear covers that differ, its the spines which look a bit plain-jane, not to mention the fact that the stripe at the bottom is black insead of red.

I recently got Penny Racers & Dark Rift (NTSC). Slowly, but surely we are getting there. Right now, we are negotiating Snowboard Kids 2, but its a difficult box to get.
SO, if anyone out there has the box for Snowboard Kids 2, let us know.
