I dont have alot. I have a Mega Man clock (Made by a DP member), A Meg Man wall scroll. Several posters, some figures and a bunch of stuff not worth mentioning.

I do have this Playstation buble pen and playstation stop watch/ clock thing I got when my PS2 broke while it was under warranty. They fixed the PS2 and sent me these items. :hmm:

I went to a PS2 exhibition way back in 2002. We got to play some games up to four months before they were released. It cost £9. At the end we handed in our tickets and got at least £10 worth of goodies. One of them was a pen with a light in it and Playstation 2 written on the side. It also came with a bunch of exclusive demos, a Playstation 2 T-shirt, some stickers, and some other stuff. It was really fun but there were big queues to play each game, despite having about five booths for each game. They had The Sims on display but it kept crashing on all of the displays, so they turned them off completely.

Other stuff I have are two Sonic plushies, a little Sonic figure about 3 inches high, and a Mario Kart 64 kart with Mario. The Mario Karts are pull back karts with 4 different characters. When you let them go they fire something out of the front or back. Mario fires a ghost, and Donkey Kong fires some bananas out of the back. I can't remember what the others do.

I have pictures of some of my NES memorabilia in the following photobucket album:

http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y203/Speedy_NES/My%20NES%20Collectibles/

I also have a bunch more plush dolls and figures, Nintendo comics (pretty cool), and other odd items like Nintendo embroidery designs etc.  It's unbelievable how much Nintendo/Mario stuff was marketed back in the day.  ;)

i pick up the odd piece here and there once in a while like action figures and old mcdonald's toys, posters, mario kart rc cars, limited edition mem cards, controllers, store displays, t-shirts etc. alot of it i've given away to friends who are diehard fans of a given item's game or series, i don't go out of my way to find or buy that kind of stuff and i pass over much more than i buy, i tend to stick to stuff i have a keen interest in in terms of the games i play.

I dont have much but the more notable items include a Mario 2 giant glass mug, a QBert Board Game, a QBert Lunchbox w/Thermos, and I got two posters from Toys R Us a few days ago.  A DS "touching is good" poster and a Mario Party 6 poster.  These are cool.  They are made of hard plastic and Hang around the "RZone" above the games...huge.   

Yeah...um, my family and I are obsessed with animal crossing: ww, so if anyone comes across one of those cardboard standee things (or anything cool related to ac) that you're willing to get rid of pm me.

I still have quite a bit of stuff. I collect mostly Nintendo related, Tales of Symphonia, and Dragon Quest VIII and Slimes. I used to have a damn near complete collection of video game related board games and still own trading cards, sticker books, and a few games. The rest of the board and card games were sold to a member who shall remain nameless unless he tells you himself ;)

http://antimind.zhrodague.net/videogames/collection/boardgames/bgames.html

Some of my Tales stuff can be found here and in my collection pics:

http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=U-076-S-03520-A&#Extramedia

I would sit here and make a list but most of my stuff I haven't seen in almost a year. My brain is ZZzzz...

Let's see if I can necro-post this thing back to life. I was going through some clothes today getting ready for a garage sale and ran across my gaming T-shirts. Thought I would share, and be curious to see what everyone else has (click for larger version):

The OoT t-shirt was from the Toys 'R Us release of the Gold OoT. It came with the soundtrack as well. I specifically remember that, because my mom went out of her way to get that particular bundle for Christmas that year.

I should gather up all my memorabilia from my years here at EA.

If I didnt know that you were in those shirts at some point in the past I would totally wear Mario Madness and Super FX. Bet the ladies couldnt keep off you!

It may be, but I thought that it had been a Kmart bundle. I still have the CD too. Here are a couple other treasures. One of these days I need to go through all of my old things (again click for bigger):

Actually, you're right. It was K-Mart, because my mom had to make a separate trip to get the Gold from TRU.

I have a collection of mostly Famicom related memorobelia on the go.

My favorite are these Famicom collector cards released in 1986:

And my Famicom-shaped memo pad:

My original strategy guide collection:

http://famicomblog.blogspot.jp/2011/11/other-famicom-stuff-strategy-guides.html

And perhaps the most attractive to look at, my Super Mario Bros. bottle caps:

Well hi senseiman, glad to see you over here! Hope to see you posting here more often.

That memo pad is really cool, and I didn't know anything about those collector cards. I have the English version of that Super Mario Bros. strategy guide that was sold through Nintendo. Same illustrations.

Do toys count as memoribilla?

[img width=700 height=525]http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t149/FireStarw/deskposed.jpg[/img]

Except for the yoshi toy and Pac-man mug (which isn't actually a toy), though, all of these a pretty recent toys (3 I got off Play-asia!).
I have a bunch of other pokemon stuff, but the only real interesting things in all of them are a Welch's jelly jar and a "Santa" Pichu Plush.

Edit: Looking through my stuff I also have a Sam's Club flyer for the launch of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and a ton of newsletters for the MMORPG Toontown Online.

Thanks, I thought I`d sign up over here too!

Those cards are pretty rare, there isn`t much on the internet in Japanese or English about them.  I like the boxes.

Interesting about the Mario guide, I didn`t realize the same one was released overseas.

Damn, and I thought I was the first guy to come up with a what-video-game-merchandise-do-you-collect thread...

...that was wiped out in the Great Outage.

But now I know better, and I profusely apologize for my plagiarism.

Anyhoo: I'm not much of a collector of video game merch that isn't actual video games, consoles, accessories, or guides. However, if I do find something interesting and/or fairly cheap, I'll not hesitate to snap it up, and add a little flair to my game shelf.

My sparse cache of tchochkes includes:

[img width=700 height=320]http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/b22c/gc9xirbr8mvgfro5g.jpg[/img]

- Super Princess Peach lunchbox tin (this is where my Skylanders figures hang)

- K'Nex Mario mini-figure with dirt bike

- Wendy's kid's meal Super Mario Advance mini board game

- McD's happy meal Luigi pull-back toy

- Gengar figure (AKA the only Pokemon character I dig)

- Bag of plastic Killzone 3 soldiers, with one good-guy and a dozen bad-guys (features the tag line, "Get Used to These Odds.")

- K'Nex Luigi mini-figure with kart and starman

- McD's happy meal Mario ball (as he appears in Mario Pinball Land)

- Starman-'n'-'Shroom DS lunchbox tin (ironically, I store my loose Sega Genesis carts in here)


I'm not sure if I should include my collection of Nintendo Mini-Classics LCD game keychains... what do you think?
