    Default Your gaming related 2005 resolutions?

    As 2004 rolls to a close - I thought it would be interesting to see what everyone's resolutions were.... I resolve that I will complete my Supergrafx collection, and my US Turbo Hucard collection this year (with the very possible exception of Magical Chase).

    Anyone out there have a resolution to share?

    Since I picked up all the titles that I wanted for my retro systems (with the exception of the expensive/rare titles), I plan on finishing all of the unplayed/unbeaten ones, then move my way up the ladder (for example: snes to saturn to ps2). I will probably jump straight to this gen then back when ever a cool game comes out in 05 (devil may cry 3, resident evil 4, chulip, etc.) though.

    Resolutions include but are not limited to

    -Build my shelves for an attempt at cleaning my game room up some.
    -Not buying as much, its the quality not quantity.
    -Finishing my NGPC collection.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Left this out - somewhere along the way I'm probably going to upgrade to a GBA SP as well.

    Get a pc-10 tabletop version.

    Then get an AES with Phantom converter.

    Other than that, pick up the rares I need for DC, NES, Saturn, and Tg-16.

    By this time next year, I resolve to have my collection up to 800 games. Shouldn't be a problem. All I have to do is get 4 new games per week, or 8 games per pay period. I should hit 1,000 by the end of 2006... :/
    With my income tax refund this year I WILL finally pick up the Famicom Twin System I've been dreaming about.

    You got that right!

    My resolution: play more games, and in particular lots of RPGs for the PS1 I have.

    I will make 5 gaming related resoultions before I hit midnight out here ;D.

    1) Play more games, and buy less. So far, with the bigscreen hooked up this has worked so far.
    2) Finish my Sega Master System collection.
    3) Finish my Sega 32x collection.
    4) Finish my Sega Saturn Collection.
    5) Finish my Sega CD collection.

    Damn...looks like it's gonna be another long year of Sega ;D. Although my last 4 resolutions kind of cancel out my first, lol. Nonetheless I will try to play a lot more than hunt 3-4 times a week.

    Play more than I buy
    actually finish some of these games I have lying around

    Hey, don't be embarassed, this was on my 2004 list and I didn't do it. :P

    Anyways, along with the above, I resolve to play more games and go to more gaming-related events in 2005. Also, according to IGN, I have a little ways to go to 1000 games, so I should be able to swing that this year.

    Happy New Year everyone!
