My Collection (Shadowrunner)

[Shadowrunner]

Looks great mate! Not many to go now. The question is, looking at the space you've got left in that rack; is your PC Engine collection going to expand downward faster than the Neo Geo expands upward??!!

Love the analogue log keeping too. Who needs Excel!

Thanks The PCE games will have to be moved, which is good because then I will organize the Neo games too. Right now they're in no order and very hard to find a certain game!

Superb collection there! Not too far to go now

[Shadowrunner]

Okay, decided it was time I added some more pics of my collection. 3DO time!





These games mean the most to me out of all my collection. Just about all my other games and systems I had prior to the 3DO I sold at some point and I've been re-buying it all ever since. Probably about 80% of my 3DO games I bought new or used between 1994 and 1996 and I've never sold any of it.

At the bottom of the second pic is the Capcom Soldier controller in the original Japanese package, and the VERY RARE VCD adapter. I spent years looking for it! With it, the FMV in games is improved and it also allows you to play all the CDI movies.



Just an update on my NG CD collection, I have one game on it's way and then I will have 96 out of 100! I'll post an updated photo when it arrives

Thanks Zap, I'd like to see your 3DO collection

A serious collection pal, it really is..very cool as I remember having a good few myself back in 1994 I loved the 3DO, I really did, and only recently got the incredible 3DO emulator for android which is 99% perfect, I kid you not, it has played everything I've thrown at it full speed, full frame rate fantastic stuff.

Upon looking at your wonderful collection I noticed you didn't have two of the best games ever released for the 3DO, Electronic Art's "Need for Speed" made in your homeland or the fantastic "Return Fire" these are unmissable on the 3DO, see if you get these, they are brilliant.

Tx for sharing the wonderful photos

Thanks Greyfox, as a fellow 3DO fan I knew you would like the pics. I was never a fan of Need for Speed believe it or not, just felt too slow. Return Fire is a great game though, I rented it once or twice and enjoyed it a lot. I do need to pick it up at some point

That is one very nice collection! 

[Shadowrunner]

Thank you

Cool 3DO collection! I like the boxes. Nice stuff you have there.

I bought the system at the time just for Super SF2 Turbo, and then discovered a lot of other fun games. At the end of the system life many games were going for $9.99 or less at Walmart here and I picked more of them up. The original controllers were about $42USD at the store and seemed so expensive at that time. I always like the headphone audio jack on the controllers and used to use it to listen to music CDs.

-Alone in the Dark 1 & 2 were really fun and paved the way for Resident Evil series
-Return Fire and Battlesport are quite fun two player
-Star Control 2 is a lot of fun, and also has a fun two player battle mode. Look up Urquan Masters for a fan made PC/Mac conversion of this game.
-Total Eclipse
-Doom has the best sound track of any version I think, and although the frame rate is a bit choppy it's still very fun though

Fantastic collection Shadowrunner. I'm in awe (and jealous )
Thanks guys for the top recommendations, too. Will have to give some of them a go. Unfortunately, my 3DO and its games disappeared so I'm a little lacking in that department atm. But, there's always 4DO

[Shadowrunner]

Thanks guys

@arcadeaction I picked up a lot of games when they were clearing them out too and I always thought the headphone jack on the controller was a great idea! Since I got the collection out I have the itch for new games and I've bought a few, but Alone in the Dark 1, Return Fire, and Doom are all on my wanted list.

@Saturn That really sucks about your 3DO and games! At least the emulation has gotten a lot better.

Okay, I finally took an updated pic of my Neo Geo CD collection!



It's not the greatest quality picture but it was hard to get them all in one shot. This is 96 out of 100 official releases in alphabetical order except the three limited edition games at the bottom. Almost done

[Saturn]

Absolutely amazing!

[Shadowrunner]

Thank you, a lot of time and money has gone into it!
