Seriously, just looking to meet other like minded gamers/hobbyists/collectors :-)

Same here mate

Texas Instruments (easily 70's with original green screen spaceys)
Spacey coffeee table screen is sunk into middle of table with glass top (Old man's, again from the 70's)
Comodore 64
Master System (original shape with super hang on on a credit card sied cart
Mega Drive , sonic, golden Axe, streets of rage, 30 odd games including some American ones that you had to play through game genie style add on cart
Atari Jag (Sold as was shi* and not true 64 bit but two 32 bits in parallel)
Snes
Game Cube
N64
Saturn - Sold to cash converters as was cack, only decent game was virua fighter
DreamCast
Panasonic & Goldstar 3DO (with Road Rash and original nfs - amazing)
PS1
2
3
Nintendo 3ds
Nintendo Wii
Orinal Gameboy (grey with purple action buttons) Tetris and original mario
xbox - sold ages ago
XBOX 360 - GAVE AWAY AS IT RROD me, ended up getting a ps3 in end

Pretty much had em all as a littlin grwing up, My uncle was big into gaming so i used to get all his hand me downs starting with the master system complete with SHO, Wonderboy, and space harrier

Like to muck about with Mame also but emulations tend to get on my wick a little bit, cracking for some of the old arcade game like the simpsons (getting rerleased on PS3,XBOx btw) and all the old game gear and snk games from the late 80's early 90's

I didn't realise how sad I was with gaming until I took the time to list the stuff accumulated over the years, no wonder my Mum keeps hassling me to go and clear all my crap out of the loft smile

Loving IPAD at the moment to be fair as there are a lot of decent games about and the graphics are decent.

Used to do a lot of PC gaming a few years back when i was a bench engineer started out with a standard Alienware desktop and ended up moddfying the sh*t out of it, ended up turning it into a test bed after the liquid cooling starting playing up and then never really bothered getting back into it with the advent of PSN's and xbox online. Strangley enough i'm off to sense check a customers self build tonight, he's put about £700 so far so must be decent spec, will get some pics up later.

Sorry Image isn't great was taken on my BB

One for all you PC nerds though, Was a good spec as expected

£250 Nvidia / asus graphics card, intel quad core, gigabyte board, 8GB RAM, all on cooler master cooling spent closer to £900 but self built, PC Sharks would be looking at £1200 for something like that.
