    Default The Greatest games related thing in you're collection

    That isn't a Game or console

    Mine is definitly my Neon N64 sign. It's not really neon just a plastic
    box with a Fluro tube (or 2) inside but it's easier to describe that way
    Cost: AU$10
    Place: Hanging on the wall over my bed head

    Tough question, but I really like my homemade C64 shirt!

    Default Mine

    Mine's actually 2 things, since they came together:

    My Playstation and N64 cabinets. The Warner Brothers store in my area was going out of business and was selling all of their fixtures, and I got them both for $25.

    They're both about 6 1/2 ft. tall. The PSX one is all merchandise shelves with 2 large glass sliding doors, the N64 one was a demo kiosk-a spot for a TV, the system storage unit, and shelves for mercahndise at the bottom, also with sliding glass doors. Both have lighted signs on the top.
    RIP bargora, you will be greatly missed.That is how we do things on Giedion Prime.

The Atari shelf unit holds all of my 2600 and 7800 games and some of my arcade boards on the bottom.

    I'll try and scare up pictures of them.

    They would probably qualify as my non-game/machine big hitters per your restrictions.

    But my stuffed Bomberman figure I found at Goodwill is still cooler...

    Either my FF Tactics OST or this.

    okay, so I'll grant that my digital camera sucks, BUT....

    if you can't tell, this is one of those cardboard standups they put out to advertise for FF9/The Bouncer. If you look at it one way, it's an image of Zidane, from another angle it's an image of Sion and Dominique.....I like to think that's kind of cool.

    My nintendo furniture or (what I love the most!) Is my Ulala cardboard standee.

    Now, if I can find an official Ulala Sega cosplay character to sign it as Ulala, I can die a happy little girl

    The nicest game-related things in my collection are probably my artbooks. I have Xenogears Perfect Works, the Emerald Dragon Official Fan Mook (yes, a Mook), the original Capcom Illustrations collection, and the Lunar I and II art guide. Whether used for artistic reference or information, they're quite cool, even if they're mostly in Japanese.

    The biggest thing in my stockpile, however, is a Metroid Prime display. I couldn't bear to see them throw it away at my EB, so it took it and set it up in my old room at my parents' home. There's no way I'm keeping it at my current apartment, so I'll hope that mom and dad don't decide to throw it away.

    Strangely enough, I find myself wanting more huge store displays. Anyone know where I can get a Xenosaga stand-up?

    I guess mine would be some original official Nintendo score card books for keeping track of your high scores on SMB and Excitebike.

    Not a game or a console?

    hmmm......

    I have some cool t-shirts people have bought me.


    'Wasted Youth' over a Space Invaders screen

    or

    'Know Your Roots' over two NES Controllers

    and some obscure ones with very 'in' jokes specfific to certain groups

    i.e

    'I bitch about you on IRC chat rooms that you cant see'


    -----

    My personal fave, and it is not strictly gaming is an original boxed, left hand wing mirror for a Sinclair C5. It's an 'Official' Sinclair Vehciles Spare Part!

    Sinclair, is this genius, who made the UK's best selling 8-bit micro. Then went a bit nuts, and made a very silly little electric car that no body bought.

    It's kinda a game, but I've gotta give mad props to my full size Street Fighter II arcade machine =)

    Working coin door, joysticks and buttons in great conditions, sharp (if slightly over-yellow) monitor, side art and marquee in poor/average (but entirely acceptable to me) shape... yeah, she's a beaut =)

    Just got her Saturday, had to spend all freakin' day at a coin-op auction, but I ended up getting it for *$130* plus tax!!

    I've got all kinds of miscellaneous videogame-related crap that I'm fond of. But the coolest thing that causes people to stop in their tracks and say "Cool." is something I got for free at my first CGE. All over the con floor, the guys had pasted up these blown-up Atari labels. (You can even see one or two in DP's Room of Doom.) Well, one of my favorites was up on the wall and, when the con ended, I asked if I could have it and they said "Yup." So, framed on the wall above my Atari Collection is my Haunted House Atari label.

    This is a photo of my game area posted here at DP. You can make it out in the upper left corner of the picture.
