------------------------------------------

Although my collection of gaming stuff isn't super-impressive, I have what I like to call a "Functional Collection" in that everything I own works and is stuff I enjoy, as I don't like to collect things I don't really have any interest in, or have only a limited interest in. This is a part of what's led to me having tons of different gaming systems, yet only a small to medium number of games for each. :B

------------------------------------------

Additional Information and Corrections:

* After doing some research it turns out Final Fantasy III (SNES) is probably the SECOND-most valuable game I own. Much to my surprise and delight, Bubble Bobble Part 2 for the NES trumps it several times over! :O

* I only know the rough numbers of the amount of games I have because it's hard to memorize all of the gaming lists I have. Even with the Dreamcast despite how few games I have for it. :P

* Actually, one complaint I have about the PS2 (and most Sega consoles) is that their controllers can randomly stop working forever. I have had 3 Genesis, 1 SMS, 1 Saturn, and 2 PS2 controllers, all COMPLETELY stop working, buttons, d-pad, analog, everything, for reasons unknown. I'm told controllers wear out but as it stands, number of Nintendo-made controllers I've had stop working: ZERO

* Speaking of dead controllers, I've actually been learning a bit about electronics as a result of my more recent interest in pinball... I might try fixing my old controllers later on once I'm able to get all of my console gaming stuff out of storage. :o

* For those of you who don't understand why my Gamecube is boxed up, the Wii has virtually PERFECT backwards compatibility with the Gamecube... but then, you already knew that, right? ;)

* Truth be told, there are a handful of games for both the PS3 and 360 that I can't get on the PC that I wouldn't mind having, but I'm not about to spend hundreds of dollars just to play 3 or 4 games. Same goes for the PS4, the XB1... though I wouldn't mind having a Wii U...
