Let's talk subsets!
Do you collect for a particular genre, publisher, series, system, or year?
I've always had this thing for factory sealed PS1 & PS2 games, especially (pre-2005?) releases with the white security seal. They're like little time capsules!

I picked up a game with an interesting history! 🦖
The NA release of Bubble Bobble Revolution contained a bug, rendering it unplayable beyond level 30. Codemasters would ask that players return their original copies in exchange for this rare [USA-1] variant.

I finally acquired one of my all-time grails, Final Fantasy III (VI), for the SNES! 😍
Been patiently looking for a copy for years, but wasn't willing to overpay just to have it. I can't wait to experience it on original hardware for the first time!

I just refreshed the nastiest GBA you've ever seen. 🪄
FunnyPlaying Clear shell, Backlit & laminated ITA screen, Li-Ion USB-C rechargeable battery, Clear speaker, buttons & pads.
And now I've got some serious catching up to do—starting with Metroid Fusion!

It was a cold morning at the flea market. I didn't stay for long, but here's what I got. Sometimes, less is more! 🥶
NES, Yoshi's Story (N64), Rival Schools (PS1), Phantasy Star Universe (X360), & Dreamcast Collection (X360).

Spent the afternoon tearing apart and cleaning this grimy old 1001-model PS1. Now I can game all evening.

This NES Advantage controller was in surprisingly good shape despite the nearly four decades of dirt and discoloration.
Disassembled and manually cleaned each component, scrubbed the electronics with IPA, and gave the shell 30 hours of Retrobright.
Looks good as new! ✌️

I only picked it up on a whim, but it cleaned up so well that I kind of love it now? 😅

They ask you how you are, and you just have to say that you're fine when you're not really fine, but you just can't get into it because they would never understand.

This Asciiware PS1 Specialized Joystick was caked in filth and barely registered any inputs. Tore it down, scrubbed the board and switches with IPA, and gave the shell got 30 hours of Retrobright. Now, it works like new!
I still suck at Tekken. 😞

The XStation ODE install is complete! This mod was a blast to do and a great learning experience for me. It's great to have my collection now fully digitized and easily accessible—not to mention breathe some new life into this neglected old PS1.
