[rammsteinfan234]

great set-up Wendy! nothing beats old school gaming on a 19 inch boxy tv :) . i seen a few things i wouldnt mind having in my collection as well, quite the collection you have going!

[poptartlove2010]

@rammsteinfan234 Thanks Matthew! :D It has grown a tad (just got Super Smash Bros N64) last night.

[rammsteinfan234]

@poptartlove2010 super smash bros is one of my favorite multiplayer games of all time! and definitely my favorite multiplayer game for the n64. great pickup!

[darrenwalshsock]

What a lovely set up Wendy!

The CRT is essential and we all know you have some quality games although the N64 cartridge design kinda sucks! It was nice to see your expansion pack and Wavebird controller on display :)

[poptartlove2010]

@darrenwalshsock :o) Thanks again Darren! Wavebirds are great! Especially if your couch is too far away from your tv. LOL

[MrXerogamer]

it's great to see your setup

[poptartlove2010]

@MrXerogamer Thanks Mr. X :)

[MrXerogamer]

@poptartlove2010 the Mr is totally unnecessary :D

[OtakuBruno]

nice little setup =0)

[poptartlove2010]

@OtakuBruno Thanks Otaku!

[JakalairVG]

Great start you have going there. Mine will never be filmed as it is strewn accross 3 rooms and a shed. Outstanding job of keeping everything nice and neat.

[poptartlove2010]

@JakalairVG LOL! Thanks.  I'm a bit OCD. :D

[CandyTutorials]

Conkers Bad Fur Day is my all time favorite game.

[poptartlove2010]

@CandyTutorials Cool! I heard it's hard to find. I'll have to check it out though. :)

[samisagamer]

Really nice little collection!

[poptartlove2010]

@samisagamer Thank you! :D

[dancentral]

My favourite video of yours so far Wendy, you have a proper mint collection of games and consoles! :)

Loving the Nintendo fest, you've now got all the main Nintendo consoles except for the Wii, loving all the different coloured N64 controllers as well! :)

[poptartlove2010]

@dancentral Thanks very much Dan! LoL Yeah, it took me long enough to get the real consoles. Not sure I'll be getting a Wii though.

[GaggleofDoozies]

I actually find these smaller, simpler collections more appealing. :)

[poptartlove2010]

@GaggleofDoozies :-D Cool. Thank you.

[HPZeta]

Nice gaming setup :)

PS you have 3 more nes games than I do :P

[poptartlove2010]

@HPZeta LOL! Thanks!

[IntellivisionDude]

Nice setup. It's quality over quantity. Or that sounded good anyway. lol :-)

[poptartlove2010]

@IntellivisionDude I like the sound of that! LOL

[ibbotson22]

Nice setup Wendy , I really love seeing all the Nintendo consoles together . I see your yellow N64 controller !! lol I also have the green one too and 2 grey ones .

Do you own a wii ? 

[poptartlove2010]

@ibbotson22 Thanks Paul! Yep I still have your controller's yellow cousin. LOL No, I don't own a Wii. Do you?

[ibbotson22]

@poptartlove2010 I do own a wii , a white one . I was looking on amazon and they have reduced the price of the black wii to around 90 pounds ! Are you interested in the wii ? seeing as you seem to be a big nintendo fan ? :D

[poptartlove2010]

@ibbotson22 The Wii games look pretty cool but I have not been convinced that I'd like the controllers. I think the numchuck and the motion control in general is kinda weird. I think the virtual console part of it where you can download old games is cool though. If you could use a Gamecube controller on all games, then I'd buy it. LOL Just me being fickle and stubborn I guess. :-)

[ibbotson22]

@poptartlove2010 I know what you mean about the motion controls. Like most thing though you just get used to them .. and some games really benefit from them . The main official Nintendo games like Zelda and Mario galaxy are really well adapted for the motion controls ... other games however seem a bit gimmicky . Another good thing about the wii is that it comes with a built in Gamecube ! ... I feel like a Nintendo salesman lol

[NintenDave1]

yo those 64 controllers are scissoring eachother

[poptartlove2010]

@NintenDave1 LOL!

[NintenDave1]

yo those 64 controllers are scissoring

[MrMcoleman28]

Hey.

U got a nice wee collection.

All the best

Michael

[poptartlove2010]

@MrMcoleman28 Thank you! :D

[bluetonic78]

Looks like a pretty comfortable set up you've got going for yourself there, Wendy :) What's the score with all the loose carts though? You not really bothered about getting the boxes I presume? :)

[poptartlove2010]

@bluetonic78 Nah....I'm not bothered with boxes. I only picked up the TGR one because it was the same price as the loose cart.

[PhatPhunk]

Nice set up! Can't go wrong playing retro consoles on the good ol CRT! I'm still using the old trusty Sony Trinitron 21" we got back in the 90s!

[poptartlove2010]

@PhatPhunk CRTs are da bomb! LOL

[slaveescaping]

NIce!



[poptartlove2010]

@slaveescaping Thanks! :D

[jillpoo3]

Nice setup!! You used to have Kirby for the NES... :( Great room tour tho :)

[poptartlove2010]

@jillpoo3 I know! I was stupid and traded it back in when my Retron 3 died. I'm trying to find it again....sigh

Thanks for all the support Davepoo!

[BigDaddyDarth]

Cool stuff. ^_^

its not the size of the collection....that you have one going is all that matters. :D

[poptartlove2010]

@BigDaddyDarth True dat brother.  LOL Thanks!

[checkeredflag90210]

[poptartlove2010]
