I always appreciate when someone has a much more condensed and personal collection because it shows a lot more personality than those who just have everything and don't even have space for all of it to be displayed properly.
That's me. I feel like anymore I don't belong in collector groups because they are all about owning everything and never removing from the shrink-wrap and collecting every variant and when I show my my collection in binders they freak out and send me threats... I feel like I have to defend the fact that everyone should collect in the way that works for THEM and makes THEM happy. Whether that's reproductions or digital copies or bare carts and discs in a binder or whatever. There's no need to collect every game ever made to impress people and complete-setters annoy me because they drive up prices even for junk games.
@@darinherrick9224 Exactly. I have over 500 games across multiple consoles and I feel like that's up there for me already and becoming hard to manage in my current space and I constantly trade stuff I don't care for. Yet, I see all these collector's on TH-cam with way more games than me and just tons of filler in their collection. Like, what's the goal eventually? Have as many games as possible? Open up a museum? What's the endgame to having every Switch game? I only get what I want and if a game is really special to me, then I understand the need to "collect" their many iterations. But when you find yourself buying shovelware and just shelving it to collect dust, how do you not question yourself? Especially when they're taking patreon money and have all that expendable cash to do such things.
@@Turo602 I got around 1000 games across all platforms but I'm always trying to shrink the collection. And I'm trying to try out games at the public library or play ROMs before buying. The problem is all these services that keep giving me free games!
This is quite a nice collection you’ve curated. I really appreciate your more deliberate approach to collecting games you played in your youth or that you know you want to play. Great collection, great organization, and great apartment in general.
Yo I just found your channel and I gotta say I'm Obsessed, ha! I've watched 3 already and I just love your presentation and your commentary. I'm glad the TH-cam algorithm showed me your stuff. Keep it up Pam!
I agree with your approach to collecting. Their has to be an endgame to what and why you collect.Props to your Sega CD collection, it doesn’t get enough love.
I have a collection of hundred Xbox 360 video games. My grandmother would like my video game collection in my game shelf if she was here today but she passed away years ago. She would’ve been proud of me, the man I always am and I will always be a man a good one. I love video games. I never get tired of this stuff and that helps my skills. I have PS2, N64, and Xbox 360. Those are 1 of my unforgettable memories. I used to play Super Mario Bros and Duck Hunt and Sega Genesis and Play Station years ago. I loved long playing games. Those are good times and memories. 👍
Thank you Pam, I have a good life and a collection of games and you inspired me and loved the way you have your game collection. I’m skilled at at them.
The Tea Party! I thought I was the only person who has ever heard of them hahaha Fire In The Head and Turn The Lamp Down Low are amazing! Got this back in '94 and not one person I have showed them to has ever heard of them lol
You know it's a serious gaming appartment when there are two tv's setup in the same room. Very jealous of the balcony, wish I had one or a garden. Going to dip back into this throughout the week, 2+ hours goes by quick with home working though
Wow, a two hour review of a gaming apartment. Very cool. I’m so jealous even though I’m happy with my own collection, which is way smaller. My wife would love this apartment.
It's really cool being able to see how your collection reflects your gaming career and the consoles your grew up with. I grew up mainly on Nintendo consoles as a kid and it really shows in my affinity towards mainstream platformers and action games, so it's really interesting seeing how your history with PlayStation resulted in an affinity towards a lot of unique JRPGs. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I love the fact you’ve just concentrated on Xbox and switch. Really refreshing to see as most game room tours have every console which looks too cluttered ❤
It’s cool to see how your taste and sense of style in games changed through the years if you put everything in chronological order. This was really a real feat to record and edit. And was a great watch with a few cups of coffee after a long work day. Most people want a gaming room, while you have a gaming home! How cool is that!! 😆😆
@@Cannotbetamed1 I have to actively search and don’t get notifications of this channel. YT stinks. Any inane bland rubbish from IGN and it’s plastered all over my recommended section. I watch all your videos and make a comment or two. “Further interest” it’s called I think. It’s a disgrace. Corporate slime balls.
I enjoy your videos because I was born in 79 and the NES was my first system and I love seeing how different our collections of games on NES were with just a few years difference in our playing timeline start. Very fun to see impact discussion of games with someone with a timeline adjacent to me. :)
I’ve moved house so many times that it’s been impossible not to purge. I’ve lost so many parts of my collection. You’re super lucky to have kept so much of yours.
Wow Pam that is an amazing setup you have. Gives me those warm nostalgia giggles. When my daughter was born I sold my retro collection to be all adult responsible. Seeing that boxed copy of Lunar put a big ol smile on my face. I miss the boxed sets and reading through the old manuals. Glad to see there are still great collections out there. Thanks for the hardward links!
When I saw "Creatures" here for the PS1, I immediately thought it was a port of the all time classic Commodore 64 game of the same name! The "Creatures" game I think about was a fantastic platform game with genius, sick senses of humor and clever puzzles to figure out in certain levels. One of my all time favourite games. It was lauded and lavished with deserved praise at the time- 1990, 91. Alas, this PS1 game you talk of is not an updated version, or anything to do with it! Still, really enjoyed the grand tour of the games, excellently presented!
You know more about your games than I do mine! My video would be me saying “I probably bought this because it was ten dollars, I never played it” about 200 times.
This was so informative and helpful. Such a straightforward, casual, and refreshing video of how casual and serious gamers might set up their console and gaming gear. Most often I just see big budget setup videos with over the top expensive gear that is not realistic or relatable for gamers that don’t have a platinum budget. Thank you so much for making this video and I love the nostalgic NES titles in you collection like Gradius and Felix The Cat.
Astyanax was a cool game as a kid! As like a 9-year-old the intro to the boss music always gave you a case of the uh-ohs. I have NO idea how well the game holds up, but I'm certain it's worth experiencing at least once.
Death of the Outsider is pretty cool. There are cool side missions from a bulletin board in each level. Each has a cool story scenarios with specific guidelines they want you to follow.
I love that you have a JVC X'Eye and an affinity for Sega CD FMV games. Definitely a niche genre that nobody else I know likes, besides me. I just got my X'Eye up and running again with a new laser and just started producing retro content here, and I'm hopeful our paths will cross in the future! Keep up the awesome videos.
Eclectic collection. It’s cool to see someone who just doesn’t go for the most popular stuff. Although, seeing your collection, it’s hard to believe you’re not a Resident Evil fan. It’s a series that I would think overlaps a lot with your other pop culture interests. The first three are essentially adventure games with characters right out of JRPGs. Edit: ah okay, you do have Resident Evil 4. Makes sense.
Damn, thanks for taking the time to make such a huge, comprehensive collection video! Great to see all the games and hear all the memories. Also, love the Turtles shirt and the animal cameos in the beginning!
You are like me for games. I always ask myself before buying a game "will I play this game for the rest of my life?" (Not really everyday) Then if I say yes, I add it to my to-buy list. Keep up the good work!
Such a cool glimpse into your world.. so many video games!!! We're roughly the same age; I think I've got three years on you. I have the same sentimental love of the original NES, it was part of so much of my childhood too. But then I could never get into the consoles that came after... to this day, I haven't been able to embrace anything other than desktop gaming or original NES (or Switch) and even the desktop gaming only came after a twenty year break from video games entirely. You're a great guide while I explore what's out there. Thanks for sharing!
This is amazing. I am so envious. I only have a fraction of the consoles and games you have here, but this is exactly what I want to do with mine when I get my own place!! This is serious goals here! I am just blown away.
I never hear a mention of Low G Man in any gaming videos. Well it's a action platformer with some enjoyable mechanics. I borrowed it from a friend and really liked it. I think the G is gravity. Awesome video Pam thank you so much. Take care. 💙😎
The reason I like your channel a lot is that a lot of gamer channels to me seem “over emphasized” when they talk and try to make they’re life more interesting and fun than it actually is. In other words, it’s not genuine to me, almost fake. Your channel on other hand, every video I’ve seen you do, you seem pretty legitimate and true to yourself In your commentary. I’ve always been that way on my channel (I have matured and changed so much over the 8 years doing TH-cam. BUT I have always been my true self 100 percent of the time, just a lot of changes. I’m sure you think you’ve changed from when you started till now) sorry for the long comment but I’m glad I found your channel. Ima make a podcast one day talking about games and stuff. Definitly gonna give your channel a shoutout before I start it for sure. It’s fine if you don’t comment back or anything, just wanted to let you know your awesome :v
Just collect the game you want to play. I thought I was the only one. Very professional set up, and it shows in the video. Thank you very much for sharing this very informative, enjoyable & surprisingly fun video.
Hi! Few things to start off with =) 1. Yes I added you because you're a female gamer, 'tis and awesome thing to see! 2. I'm Brian 3. Don't be intimidated, but I'm not a stereotypical guy. If anything, I'll be the one in the kitchen =D.
Well i have watched it all now and that was excellent, Thanks Pam. Must of been hard work to put this one together and so many things to talk about - You are right about Rayman being deceptively difficult and i liked the Big Box PC games section, The LucasArts games are awesome and The Dig is one of your finest reviews 👍 And Max at the end was the perfect ending.
I'm glad you liked that part, I decided to add it as a bit of an after thought. It was surprising how sore just sitting on the floor showing games to a camera for 2 hours could make me.
Shocked to see the vinyl collection containing multiple game soundtracks. That's really hard core. Also, seeing shelfs with games gives me currently a "run down game shop" vibe. As downloading games took over, especially for PC games, some shops have a dusty corner left over for games in boxes. I guess in a couple of years, when those shelfs are gone, it will be as cult as shelfs with vinyl or graphic novels. Although the game art books and game soundtrack vinyl are definitely cult already. Those vinyl covers and art books are a great format to display what you love about a game.
My physical collection has dwindled to only a handful of consoles, game boxes, and some books. I had to move around a lot when I was younger so I’ve since converted everything to emulators, ROMs, and digital games. It was fun building the front end UI and organizing all of the corresponding media but nothing compares to a giant toy room full of game boxes and physical media.
The SNES is the system I probably have the most nostalgia for, but that’s most likely because that was the first console I bought with my own money. I look forward to being able to watch the rest of this video later.
Seeing that you own Full Throttle on PC in the big box is reason enough for me to subscribe, loved that game growing up! Still have my original copy with the case :) Also the Tex Murphy games were introduced to me by my Aunty that recently passed away who wasn't even a gamer when I was younger so they hold a special place in my gaming memories.
Ok, I am very proud of your setup. It looks amazing. Look at all those games vertical in rows so as to not damage them. I see too many vids of people that do horizontal stacks on stacks and that just crushes the games, possibly warps discs over time. You definitely took time, care, and forethought into the setup. Tight & clean game room Pam! Love it.
Great game room tour! This is now my favorite video game collection tour on TH-cam. I loved how you showed each game one-by-one in detail. I would like to hear more about why you purchase so many Jurassic Park games. Also, might be interesting to see a video on your experience working in QA testing games. I did a bit of game testing back in the day (late 90's).
I love watching your reviews on NES. I collect mainly the cart consoles systems on the NES SNES N64 and Genesis. When it switch to disc systems, the loading time was annoying. If there is only one NES game I could tell you to play it would be G I Joes Real American Hero. I think we are almost the exact same age, I turn 38 in Feb so I can relate in a lot of the same way as you. Thanks for sharing your collection and keep up the great retro reviews.
@@Cannotbetamed1 without question!I had to put off moving because of the pandemic, so hopefully when things start to settle down my husband and I can get out if here. And hopefully I can build up my collection more like you have done!
1:01:04 good call on Jurassic Park Operation Genesis! Such an underrated classic. I loved this video, especially the NES games. I sold all thirty or so of my NES games about ten years ago and I miss them.
This has me feeling all kinds of nostalgiac. I need to reach out to some old friends and see if they have any of their old systems so we can stay up all night playing games and telling fart jokes.
I love curated collections where everything has some sentimental value - it's so much more interesting to see and hear the stories than complete set type stuff. Great video! And yeah, I just got an air fryer and I'm still in the honeymoon phase with it - everything goes in there. The cast iron is getting jealous.
Amazing collection. I want that Lunar for the ps1. I just think this game is awesome for the case the map the book. The gameplay. I dont play jrpg games, it looks like a great game. But I just need to have this game in my collection.
I relate so much to that bit about playing DKC at your cousins. We didn’t have any money and my cousins parents were really well off so they had everything. So many late nights playing DKC, legend of the seven stars, Mega man x, Mario party 2, paper Mario…I remember having to ask his dad for help with a button mashing bit on paper Mario haha. Would love to be able to go back just for one day. Nice apartment btw everything looks organized and tidy.
Love your Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles shirt and the apartment looks really cute, I’m a big collector too but I am the same as you I collect ones that mean something to me, your really cute!
This brings up so many memories, especially for PS1 games. You also shown a few games that my dad had on the Amiga 500 and that I could never finish, the 3 I can remember the most were Prince of Persia, Flashback and Another World. I recently picked up Flashback and Another World on the Switch and finally got to finish them. I really enjoyed Another World, it was something quite special. Flashback, I really had to push myself to finish it, mostly as I found the control too clunky during fights. I think I would probably feel the same with Prince of Persia if I could ever play it again. I also tried Loom as a Kid but I could not understand a thing and was stuck really early on (I really enjoyed your video on it, understood why I was stuck and realised I would not have liked it very much anyway when I was ca. 10 years old). Thanks for sharing this collection with us!
I think that is my no 1 game. I’ve got it on SNES, GBA and SNES mini. I jumped from Nes to Megadrive then my uncle was playing it, the beginning part where it’s raining. Took me 2 years to save up for a SNES. My second game was Mystic Quest though, booooo. What a stinker. I was only young though. Big nostalgia glasses. A link between worlds is a good successor. Pam is not a fan of handhelds though. I didn’t used to be. Switch got me hooked.
Yes but the Gameboy Color Version on the Retroad SFC52HD or Retroad 5 Plus with the GB/GBC Extension Converter from Ali-Express. She hates Gameboy though. ☹
omg impressive! I stopped buying physical games a few years ago unless its from a fav franchise. My game collection is in a very sorry state compared to yours 😅
Thanks for the tour. It's a very nice setup. I'm a huge collector of Sega in general. I collect for the Sega Master System, Genesis, CD and 32X. I also have a complete set of Mini Consoles. I also have some PS2 and PS3 games that I got for a $1 a piece at a garage sale (I couldn't turn down that kind of a deal).
I love the single freshly cut flowers in the window
I always appreciate when someone has a much more condensed and personal collection because it shows a lot more personality than those who just have everything and don't even have space for all of it to be displayed properly.
Exactly why own thousands of games when they prob haven't played any of them
@@thomasallen4340 Yeah, I don't get it. It just comes off like hoarding to me.
That's me. I feel like anymore I don't belong in collector groups because they are all about owning everything and never removing from the shrink-wrap and collecting every variant and when I show my my collection in binders they freak out and send me threats...
I feel like I have to defend the fact that everyone should collect in the way that works for THEM and makes THEM happy. Whether that's reproductions or digital copies or bare carts and discs in a binder or whatever.
There's no need to collect every game ever made to impress people and complete-setters annoy me because they drive up prices even for junk games.

Very clean game room and well organized, this gives me some great ideas. Also, I noticed your Wisconsin Badgers pillow. I live there, so good taste ;)

Hi! Few things to start off with =) 1. Yes I added you because you're a female gamer, 'tis and awesome thing to see! 2. I'm Brian 3. Don't be intimidated, but I'm not a stereotypical guy. If anything, I'll be the one in the kitchen =D.
Yes...the radio in Silent Hill has haunted the nightmares of many for decades!!!
Watching this video I yet again got a rethink how I have my setup
Love the uber-tier PC setup next to the $7 Walmart floor lamp. So relatable.
Well i have watched it all now and that was excellent, Thanks Pam. Must of been hard work to put this one together and so many things to talk about - You are right about Rayman being deceptively difficult and i liked the Big Box PC games section, The LucasArts games are awesome and The Dig is one of your finest reviews 👍 And Max at the end was the perfect ending.
Glad you enjoyed it! I was fun, but very time consuming to put together.
I really appreciate the extra angles you edited in for the cartridges you showcased. I can tell a lot of work went into this episode.
I'm glad you liked that part, I decided to add it as a bit of an after thought. It was surprising how sore just sitting on the floor showing games to a camera for 2 hours could make me.
Astayanax(NES) was based on an arcade game called "The Astayanax" A hack and slash game like RASTAN.
Shoutout to the Tea Party records! Been a fan since the 90s when I discovered them working at a music store. Still have the first 3 albums on CD. ☺️
Vandal Hearts is one of, if not the best SRPG's of all time. It moves quickly, too. My highest recommendation for you to try.
I loved the Arcanum game. Played it over and over with many different characters and scenarios
COOL APARTMENT PAM AND LOTS OF GAMES.
Shocked to see the vinyl collection containing multiple game soundtracks. That's really hard core. Also, seeing shelfs with games gives me currently a "run down game shop" vibe. As downloading games took over, especially for PC games, some shops have a dusty corner left over for games in boxes. I guess in a couple of years, when those shelfs are gone, it will be as cult as shelfs with vinyl or graphic novels. Although the game art books and game soundtrack vinyl are definitely cult already. Those vinyl covers and art books are a great format to display what you love about a game.
dang you went all out for this one. 2 hours!
Love it. I love how comfy it looks - a really relaxing space rather than a cluttered, overwhelming space.
Thanks! That’s what I’m going for, I hate clutter.
Hi Pam, new sub here. Lovely setup throughout. I’m about to move house so I’ll be upping and moving my Lady Lounge to an epic new design
Hey, welcome to the channel! Good luck with your move.
Good luck on your move Gemma!
Haha! Lady Lounge. Never heard that term before. Very clever.
My physical collection has dwindled to only a handful of consoles, game boxes, and some books. I had to move around a lot when I was younger so I’ve since converted everything to emulators, ROMs, and digital games.
It was fun building the front end UI and organizing all of the corresponding media but nothing compares to a giant toy room full of game boxes and physical media.
Your overall apartment and artwork looks amazing. Just be careful with the 3rd party switch docks there is a chance they can brick the console.
Thanks so much
Thanks for the tour. That's a pretty awesome collection you have there. Bonus points for that shirt. Cawabunga!!!!
I haven't played The Wizard of Oz - but there's no way it can be "the worst SNES game" as long as Pit Fighter exists.
The SNES is the system I probably have the most nostalgia for, but that’s most likely because that was the first console I bought with my own money. I look forward to being able to watch the rest of this video later.
SNES was a classic though, just like the first PlayStation.
I never liked the megadrive, I prefere the cartooney colourful happy vibe of Nintendo.
I particularly enjoy the hollow knight shade in the background subtly interloping on a few of your shots ;)
Seeing that you own Full Throttle on PC in the big box is reason enough for me to subscribe, loved that game growing up! Still have my original copy with the case :)
Also the Tex Murphy games were introduced to me by my Aunty that recently passed away who wasn't even a gamer when I was younger so they hold a special place in my gaming memories.
Welcome to the channel! I have a review on Full Throttle and UaKM up too.
Love this, an apartment size version of my man cave. T-Shirt too - Rad! Where are the Pams in my local area 🤔😍
Love how you incorporate gaming music in the background of your mini game reviews. Great video!
Thank you!
Purposeful collecting sounds like great life advice
I think so!
Ok, I am very proud of your setup. It looks amazing. Look at all those games vertical in rows so as to not damage them. I see too many vids of people that do horizontal stacks on stacks and that just crushes the games, possibly warps discs over time. You definitely took time, care, and forethought into the setup. Tight & clean game room Pam! Love it.
Thanks!
Would have been nice to see the setups running, including the record player
Great game room tour! This is now my favorite video game collection tour on TH-cam. I loved how you showed each game one-by-one in detail. I would like to hear more about why you purchase so many Jurassic Park games. Also, might be interesting to see a video on your experience working in QA testing games. I did a bit of game testing back in the day (late 90's).
Thanks so much! I've thought of doing a video specifically on working in QA.
I'm excited to hear what your thoughts on Crystalis will be.
"Get Out" is a good movie. Blokes a gun director...funny as too.
I love watching your reviews on NES. I collect mainly the cart consoles systems on the NES SNES N64 and Genesis. When it switch to disc systems, the loading time was annoying. If there is only one NES game I could tell you to play it would be G I Joes Real American Hero. I think we are almost the exact same age, I turn 38 in Feb so I can relate in a lot of the same way as you. Thanks for sharing your collection and keep up the great retro reviews.
Love the collection girl! Your dog is so cute too 🥺 your place looks like mine, but better because I can't have animals in my building 😔
Aww, that's too bad. Pets should be allowed in any building.
@@Cannotbetamed1 without question!I had to put off moving because of the pandemic, so hopefully when things start to settle down my husband and I can get out if here. And hopefully I can build up my collection more like you have done!
1:01:04 good call on Jurassic Park Operation Genesis! Such an underrated classic. I loved this video, especially the NES games. I sold all thirty or so of my NES games about ten years ago and I miss them.
Streets of Rage 1 & 2 on Vinyl are great and Golden Axe anything by Data Discs.
Totally agree with the collecting methodology. Collect what you like and play what you like. Great video thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
This has me feeling all kinds of nostalgiac. I need to reach out to some old friends and see if they have any of their old systems so we can stay up all night playing games and telling fart jokes.
I love fart jokes, toilet humour always cracks me up
@@MrSegAsh Much respect.
I love curated collections where everything has some sentimental value - it's so much more interesting to see and hear the stories than complete set type stuff. Great video! And yeah, I just got an air fryer and I'm still in the honeymoon phase with it - everything goes in there. The cast iron is getting jealous.
I've never learned how to clean a cast iron, so mine get very little use.
Amazing collection. I want that Lunar for the ps1. I just think this game is awesome for the case the map the book. The gameplay. I dont play jrpg games, it looks like a great game. But I just need to have this game in my collection.
Very lovely setup. Well done. A bit jelly of those original game boxes. Threw all mine away years ago.
The dog is so cute!!
That remote Grenade launcher in Pariah and Warpath was so OP yet so fun to use.
2 hours, bless your heart.
My last collection video when I had 1000+ games was 6 minutes long.... I don't know what a middle ground is.
I relate so much to that bit about playing DKC at your cousins. We didn’t have any money and my cousins parents were really well off so they had everything. So many late nights playing DKC, legend of the seven stars, Mega man x, Mario party 2, paper Mario…I remember having to ask his dad for help with a button mashing bit on paper Mario haha. Would love to be able to go back just for one day.
Nice apartment btw everything looks organized and tidy.
Thanks!
Love your Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles shirt and the apartment looks really cute, I’m a big collector too but I am the same as you I collect ones that mean something to me, your really cute!
This brings up so many memories, especially for PS1 games. You also shown a few games that my dad had on the Amiga 500 and that I could never finish, the 3 I can remember the most were Prince of Persia, Flashback and Another World. I recently picked up Flashback and Another World on the Switch and finally got to finish them. I really enjoyed Another World, it was something quite special. Flashback, I really had to push myself to finish it, mostly as I found the control too clunky during fights. I think I would probably feel the same with Prince of Persia if I could ever play it again. I also tried Loom as a Kid but I could not understand a thing and was stuck really early on (I really enjoyed your video on it, understood why I was stuck and realised I would not have liked it very much anyway when I was ca. 10 years old). Thanks for sharing this collection with us!
Maybe I should try Another World. I think I have that on PC somewhere.
Fantastic collection!...Yeah, you NEED to play LOZ Link to the past lol
I think that is my no 1 game.
I’ve got it on SNES, GBA and SNES mini.
I jumped from Nes to Megadrive then my uncle was playing it, the beginning part where it’s raining. Took me 2 years to save up for a SNES.
My second game was Mystic Quest though, booooo. What a stinker.
I was only young though.
Big nostalgia glasses. A link between worlds is a good successor. Pam is not a fan of handhelds though.
I didn’t used to be. Switch got me hooked.
@@mrmagoo-i2l I love the switch
I cant wait for your review of Astyanax
Please play Crystalis, it's one of the best games on the platform!
Hard agree!!!
Yes but the Gameboy Color Version on the Retroad SFC52HD or Retroad 5 Plus with the GB/GBC Extension Converter from Ali-Express. She hates Gameboy though. ☹
9:39 That Dragon Age book. I need one in my life. One of my all time favorite games.
omg impressive! I stopped buying physical games a few years ago unless its from a fav franchise.
My game collection is in a very sorry state compared to yours 😅
I collect mostly sports games at this point. I just finished my Ps2 Madden collection.
Thanks for the tour. It's a very nice setup. I'm a huge collector of Sega in general. I collect for the Sega Master System, Genesis, CD and 32X. I also have a complete set of Mini Consoles. I also have some PS2 and PS3 games that I got for a $1 a piece at a garage sale (I couldn't turn down that kind of a deal).
Imagine how expensive it is to start collecting on some of these consoles now in 2021.
It's not too bad actually.
