    Default Who has been interviewed about their collection??

    Digitalpress' post about being interviewed got me wondering.. How many collectors here have had a major media source interview them or feature their collection?

    A couple of years ago, I was used as a prototypical "average gamer" by the Dallas Morning News. They asked me a bunch of questions and came out to pohotgraph my room of doom. Gave me a 3/4 page full color story!!

    Anybody else here had coverage like this? Are the articles online anywhere that I can check them out??

    I was! In fact I'm the one who pointed the reporter in DP's direction.

    It's been asserted here that DreamTR was on G4 for his collection.

    I was interviewed once about the Japanese Virtua Fighter 4 scene. Due to my job, I couldn't have my face (or name) be known, but I took them around and tried to explain what was the big fuss. I still don't know. It was just fun, and the arcades are everywhere.

    I was interviewed by the wall street journal for an article on classic gaming.
