Check out my collection, click the link in m sig. It has all of my stuff except for the XBOX stuff that I have yet to put in there, and maybe a couple of things I forgot about.
Let me hear your comments on the collection of a 15 year old.

You got a great collection. @_@
I'm 16 and my collection is about 44 or so games (I started to collect games on my 16th birthday). I'm just buying a lot of Genesis games first and then I'll purchase games for other systems. I don't know any 15 year old kid in my school with a good Atari collection, nobody. :(
But I want to ask you this, what do most of your friends said when you should them your video game collection? When I show my friends my Genesis collection, they couldn't believe it. :P
Oh yeah, what do you parents said about your video game collection? I can't buy a lot of games in one week because my father doesn't want me to buy a lot of video games at all, he wants me to save money (which I'm trying to do as well).

LOL :roll: Well most of my friends can't believe how many games I have (probably the most in my school if not at least top 3) and they think it is pretty awesome. But even though some think it is awesome, there are some who think I am obsessed and some who think I have some mad cash b/c of the fact that I have all of games plus some other stuff.
My parents, well my dad doesn't really care too much I think, he never really says anything about it. My mom on the other hand always says, "Do you really need all this stuff?" among other things. But she ends up taking me to Goodwill stores and flea markets anyway. But for the most part I don't think they really care too much b/c it pretty much keeps me out of their hair.
And if you are wondering if I have the same money issues with them, I don't. My parents really don't care as long as I pay for it and have the money. Especially during the summer when I work, I usually go to the flea market every week then b/c I am making more than enough for me to save and support my habit.
Kudos on starting the Genny collection, that is one of my favorite systems to collect for.
Just always be on the lookout for freebies-thats how i got some of my stuff.

Sorry for the long winded post, I really need to learn how to summarize. LOL :roll:

No man or woman is never too old for video games. 8-)
You should be luckly Dave because my nearest flea market is about 30 miles away and I go there every month or two (hopefully that'll change soon).

Well, the one I always go to is 15+ miles away from where I am but there is more than one in my general area but never found anything at the others.

That's a pretty decent little collection. It appears you spend quite a bit on handhelds, which isn't bad but shows you're on the run quite often, or playing games in class. By any means though, I'll guess you like the NES a lot but enjoy the PS2 the most?

You should work on that DC collection while you can find the games super cheap! NES and Atari carts can always be found at garage sales and flea markets. I've also had luck finding old games at antique stores (makes me feel old!). I found a complete E.T. for $2 there!

Most of them, probably more than half. I am not sure though, it has been a while since I have played some of them. I remember having a hard time with some and still have some 1/2 & 3/4 finished.

Nice collection. You have some harder to find items in there.
