Posted under Collection, games

I'm a little late on this post. Not much new to post anyway, only new game I have is Zelda: Ocarina of time. I've been spending more time playing my games right now rather than collecting them right now, mostly because I have no money for new ones at the moment. The next system I'll go for though is the Super Nintendo, then the Dreamcast, my friend says he has one, I doubt it.

First week in this newbies collection, and I'd say it was a pretty good one. Actually sold some of my other non-video gaming related collectibles (my awesome guitar), but I think it was well worth it. First, a brief background on me and why I wanted to start collecting video gaming memorabilia. I was brought up on gaming. I've had just about every Nintendo system there was since the NES except a Virtual Boy (though I might get one from a friend). I was practically born with a controller in my hands. I had a dream about a week ago. What was it about? You guessed it, I was a video game collector. I don't know why I had it, most likely the fact that I went on a retro gaming spree playing some games on my PC with emulators, but that's besides the point. All the sudden, an emulator wasn't enough, I wanted the real thing, I wanted an original square shaped NES controller in my hands as I played Super Mario Bros. I wanted to own the physical essence of the game, not just the digital form. I started collecting. My goals are simple, nab any thing game related I possibly can, and try to complete as many game catalogs as possible, with priority on the Nintendo 64, then other Nintendo consoles, then all else. Now a week later, let's look at how far I've come.

New Additions -

Bought an NES bundle that came with 3 games: Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt, The Flying Dragon: The Secret Scroll, and 10 Yard Fight. Soon after, I came across the gold cartridge versions of Zelda 1 and 2, sweet. I also obtained A link to the Past in that deal, though I don't have an SNES, yet. The very next day (or it could have been the same, either way) I obtained a Nintendo 64 with Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, and Mario Party 1. I later scoured eBay and came across Zelda: Ocarina of Time limited edition gold cartridge. I bought it. That should be arriving sometime in this next week, needless to say, I can't wait!

So that was my week one, not bad for a newbie, right? I'll try to keep this blog semi-weekly, depends on when I get new stuff. If I don't post anything, I didn't get anything new. Until next time, bye.
