Wow! You guys have some REALLY GOOD Genesis games. I know because I was a Genesis kid too like Will. Your Genesis collection is pure gold. You guys have good taste.
Nice collection. I think I spotted a Blue Snowball at the PC. Love those mics. They're super good quality, and very diverse. I use them for my channel, and music recordings as well.
Awesome collection. It's cool to see more obscure systems in your collection. I am currently putting together my own game room and came across this video. Thanks for posting. I always get excited/jealous watching game collection videos. Awesome video!
Awesome!! Love these collection videos. Thanks for giving a quick description of some of these games. I want to play a lot of these games now. Lots of games i havent heard of but sound fun.
So happy to see that you have Dark Wizard for Sega CD, probably my favorite game for the system! I have the exact same problem, I also live in an apartment with my fiancée and our collection is scattered... everywhere, lol. Enjoyed seeing some of your top picks from each collection as well!
I agree with Lifespiller79 that seeing other peoples video game collections can spark new ideas in getting games you have never played before. You are the second person I know that likes Legend of Dragoon. I will download it off the PS3 or PS Vita next chance I get. Thanks for showing your collection, Pam. I was impressed with it. You have almost everything in home consoles except for SNES, but that probably is do to both you & Will not growing up with it & maybe lack of room.
+Dusty Robinson We had a smaller SNES collection, but those got traded. He grew up with Sega and I skipped from NES to PS1 so, while it's got some great games, it's not a console that is super meaningful to either of us. We also don't have N64 games anymore. Though I did have that console when it was current, I find those games almost unplayable now between the weird controller and polygon-based games aging very badly.
+Cannot be Tamed I understand. I have fond memories of the NES, Genesis, Sega CD (I had a CDX), & SNES. My family lived next door to a pawn shop, so I was able to get systems we couldn't afford new. My brother bought a PS1 a few months after it came out & we loved the game library on it from the word go. The Saturn & Dreamcast is not as meaningful to me. My brother bought a Saturn when it got cheaper & came with Virtua Fighter 2, Virtua Cop 2, & Daytona USA, but because of lack of games we wanted to play on it, he took it back & payed more for a N64. I never had a Dreamcast. I also understand about the N64 controller. I like it just fine, but can understand if anyone has problems with it. Nintendo did better with the Gamecube controller.
Impressive Genesis shooter collection! One of my goals is to have a complete NTSC shooter collection. It's gonna take a long time. Wish I had the funds for all those Saturn imports. I'll have to burn some rom discs ;) Always nice to see a fellow collector's assets. Thanks for sharing, Pam (and Will)!
I'm glad to see someone else liked beyond good and evil...that was such an underrated game...good story good graphics and gameplay....I really enjoyed that game....
Awesome Room Tour! You should do some Sega Saturn Reviews. My Saturn Collection is small so I always want to hear about hidden gems in other peoples collections. Keep up the awesome work!
I've been meaning to make a video for my own collection sometime. You two have great taste in games! Tons of awesome and rare titles ^-^ I especially approve of your preference to the Fatal Frame series :)
Really cool collection, you have a lot of gems in there. I thought that was funny that you had Adventures in the Magic Kingdom as a game that you remembered from your childhood. I remember that my mom used to take me to rent games and that was one of the games that I would always rent.
Although I'm not the biggest Sega Genesis fan, you have a pretty impressive set. Actually you give me some ideas. Great setup with laying out the games on the ground. Gives you a better idea of what the games look like.
I think 1942 and 1943 will always be the definitive classic scrolling shooters for me, although I played them on Commodore 64 rather than console. I am most well-versed in the PS2 game range (which isn't saying much) but I you have sooooo many games I never heard of!
Hello! Great collection you got there! A couple of things: 1) You ever been told you look like Elisha Dushku? 2)Very impressive tour! Especially how neat and tidy the collections are. Unlike other collector's they are just all clustered. 3) Your collection mixed with your BF, you ever thought about Dual game tour perhaps on your 5K subs milestones? 5) Holy shit!! I never knew Ronald McDonald has his own video game!! lol Great vid! Subscribed!
+FrappMocha I think I was once told I looked like Eliza Dushku, a while back. I tried to get my BF to be on this video to talk about his Sega stuff, but he wasn't interested.
Nice little set up Pam. I see the Kinivo HDMI switch in the TV stand. Have one of those myself. So handy. Saturn collection looks quite extensive and in very nice condition too. Everything neatly stored. Nice tour! :) Echo Night and Echo Night Beyond are both quite cool games. Haunting Ground I'm actually playing through right now for the first time. If you like Clock Tower, Haunting Ground is for you. Also, a thumbs up for having Folklore as well. :) Do you happen to have Eternal Sonata on 360 or PS3? Very charming and stylish RPG imo.
3:27 Looking at this, I really start to notice how much of a platforming enthusiast you seemed. Felix the Cat, Super Mario Bros. 3, Zelda II, StarTropics, etc. I suppose they especially catch my eye because I'm a platforming enthusiast myself, but I didn't know you played them as a kid. I guess we share that much in common in terms of interests! Haha.
I love seeing Classic Concentration on there - that was the other game my mom and I got alongside Super Mario/Duck Hunt when we got the console. I also had Home Alone and my God was it dreadful - but at least amusingly so.
+Jeremy Peeples I played Classic Concentration so much. I put it on a couple months ago and I only had to uncover one, maybe 2 squares before I was able to guess all the puzzle because somehow I still had them memorized.
A lot of nice titles in the video, but then I checked out your boyfriend's instagram, and there is a whoooooooooole lot of really top-shelf stuff there! Just a steady stream of 'Good, good ... good ... oohhh ... good' and nodding. And seeing all the pick-ups and how they fit on those shelves, that's a really compact, clean setup. Also, if he's looking to have the Duo modded for RGB, I know of a great modder that worked on my Duo-R.
+TGApuleius I'm hoping I can get him on here to talk about some of his favourite titles at some point. The Duo's having its capacitors replaced right now.
That would be nice, especially considering the quality of many of the pick-ups. Capacitors are a huge pain for them. I read he's getting it done for $70-75 -- that's a good price. I definitely paid more when I had to get them done for both the Duo and Duo-R.
Whoa!! Quite the Sega Saturn and Sega Genesis collection you have there. I also really like your Sega CD and NES collection. Especially since you say StarTropics is one of your favorites. I love that game so much.
hey cool video, i always like game room tours, and i was very glad that you said you were going to review a turbo grafx game, my neighbor had it when i grew up and for some reason you know not many people had it as much as NES or master system etc so it totally nostalgic for it, its mystical cya
I cannot believe all the hate on this girl.. really. She does absolutely NOTHING to offend or attack anyone. she just posts videos talking about games we all love. theres no cleavage or drama used to get views or anything. This is just an honest gamer talking about what she loves. I am a neighbor of pam and her boyfriend and they are quiet people. I just dont get why people want to hate on this girl...
Congrats again on the 2.5K. I really like the diversity in your collection(s). Everything you've got seems to be in almost flawless condition - is condition something you target when purchasing/trading or are you content with flawed labels/manuals/cases if the game is a "must own" in your eyes?
+Musty Hobbit Thank you! I'm not too picky about condition, though I care about it more the more valuable the game is. Badly ripped labels/artwork is the only thing I'll really avoid. Will cares about it more than I do. Will buys a lot of cheap Genesis/Saturn/Sega CD games so he can use their cases to replace cracked/damaged cases from games we already have.
Enjoy your reviews, I have a feeling your channel is going to blow up with subscribers before long. Noticed deadly preminition in your collection, curious if you plan on making a review on it, I loved the directors cut, makes me sad I sold my ps 3, I new I would reget it.
Probably won't do a review of Deadly Premonition. I played it a few years back and though I enjoyed it, it's the kind of game I really only want to play once.
Nice collection! And you have an Xeye! That's awesome! I've wanted one of those for a long time! I only have my model 2 with the 32X and all the add-ons and stuff. I only have about 20 Genesis games but I should get more. I've been meaning to play some Genesis RPGs. There aren't THAT many of them but some are pretty good. I've only played about half of Crusader of Centy and Landstalker but I aim to finish those when I finish my current Ocarina and Majora playthroughs. I like action adventure RPGs, as you can probably tell. I have about 500 games myself but some are in storage. Small apartment, you know how it goes. I've been working on getting all the Neo-Geo stuff I can get lately. Don't know if you're a fan but I loves me some Neo-Geo. Anyway, I have a quick question if you don't mind. Do you play much on your PC? You didn't really mention it. I assume you have a Steam account though. Do you use a keyboard/mouse setup or do you prefer controllers? I just have a PS2-type controller hooked up right now and that works well for me. It's my favorite layout to this day.
+Hezekiah Ramirez I do play on PC. I prefer console when I have an option (for everything except point and click adventure), but I play a lot of indie games on PC on Steam. Lately I've been playing Heroes of the Storm, The Talos Principle, Technobabylon, and I finally finished with Darkest Dungeon after too many hours. I prefer controllers (I use a 360 controller), though I don't have one set up permanently at my PC due to space and USB port limitations and I often just use mouse and keyboard.
I spy a copy of Troubleshooter. Definitely hunt down a repro for the sequel which never came out in the US, Troubleshooter 2 (aka Battle Mania Daiginjo.) Such an amazing game.
Good taste in games overall. Nice collection. I need to get me a Retron 5! Looks cool! Its very rare to see anyone talk so positively about Sega CD. I notice no 32x games.
PS2 Forever! Have been cheating with a Switch Lite though. Obsessed with Mario Golf. Tomb Raider is my all time favorite series. I'm old, so the Atari 2600 was my first console.
I would love to see you do a video on the Shadow Hearts series. The first SH title is one of my favorite games, but I never hear anyone talk about it or any of the other titles in the series. I just recently got a copy of Koudelka for an arm and a leg (one of my top picks for ps1 titles to hunt down), which I'm really looking forward to playing through when I have the time, and I also really want to get the rest of the titles someday if and when I can afford them.
Awesome collection!! Your Genesis collection looks a lot like mine, though you may have a few more games than me. Nice PS1 & PS2 collection as well. Do you have Vagrant Story for PS1? It's a great game, but pretty tough. Do you guys have any SNES games? And my heart sank when you said that you traded Flintstones and Panic Restaurant; but that's just the hoarder in me. It would pain me to part with any of my games--even the bad ones. Love all of the shooters that you guys own! Congratulations on 2,500 subs!!
+Westapo: Video Games and Loud Music Thanks! I think we had Vagrant story a week ago. It's gone now, traded for TurboGrafx stuff. We were going for a full NES set, had around 500 games, even had most of the priciest ones, but realised that because there are so many NES games we were still very far away. And there were a lot of bad games that would cost a lot of money. Will decided to redirect his attention to Saturn since it meant more to him, and I was just happy to no longer have 400 games that neither of us would ever play.
Well, if trading those games for others is what makes you guys happy, then I suppose you did the right thing. Tell me you at least got rid of City Connection. That game is garbage.
I like your Ikea side table as I have the same one.:) And why is Fester's Quest more shown off next to your NES box? Fester's Quest isn't talked too much about, but I liked and finished it back in the 80's. I'm old.
Very nice collection Pam! As far as other good Xbox 360 RPG's/games you should check out... Blue Dragon, Ninety Nine Nights, Tales of Vesperia, Infinite Undiscovery, The Last Remenant, Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom, Magna Carta 2, Spectral Force 3, Enchanted Arms & Culdcept Saga..Also checkout Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack The Ripper, The Testament of Sherlock Holmes, DeathSmiles, Akai Katana, Left 4 Dead series
I tried Infinite Undiscovery (what a weird name), Magna Carta and Last Remnant, but didn't really like them. I love the Sherlock Holmes games. Haven't played Jack the Ripper yet, but have played Testament and Crimes and Punishments. Looking forward to playing the newest one too. I've played Deathsmiles, Akai Katana (love those) and Left 4 Dead too.
Lost Odyssey is a stellar game which I noticed you have. Along with TheBadcompany25, I'd have to recommend Blue Dragon which was also made by Sakaguchi through Mistwalker. It's excels in charm and artistic style imo. Wasn't a very big fan of Infinite Undiscovery myself. I have only the Tales series, Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey on 360.
Awesome collection! Have you ever played a Genesis game called Wonder Boy in Monster World? It's a 2D side scrolling action RPG in case you aren't familiar with it. It's one of my all time favorite Genesis games :)
+Nintendo Hodge We had a smaller SNES collection, but those got traded. Will grew up with Sega and I skipped from NES to PS1 so, while it's got some great games, it's not a high priority console for either of us.
There was another run and shoot (shmup) for the PS1. It was developed by Media Vision when they developed Wild Arms simultaneously. The title is Gunners Heaven in Japan and Rapid Reload in Europe. It was released the week after the PS1 launch in Europe along with Air Combat from namco. There were more shmup games in Japan for the PS1 like Raiden, Darius series, couple amount of Twinbee games from Konami, and Thunderforce V from Technosoft.
+Cannot be tamed There were some technical issues to get games from TecnoSoft to get localized outside of Japan in the early of the fifth gen. Sega Saturn had the superior multiplat versions. Even before Playstation fanboys are saying Saturn was hard to program for, it had a superior sound chip on paper and a elegant architecture if you know how to utilize the Saturn's hardware. It was the most powerful system of all three (PS1, Saturn, N64). I remember Sony in the West said they didn't wanted straight forward 2D games on their platform in its early life cycle, which is a shame. We could have more shmup and beat em up games from Japan despite that we will get the inferior versions. Many talks about how last gen was the dark age of gaming, but that's simply not true. The early years of the PS2 was the dark age for small developers in Japan to survive. When AA/AAA development started to increase by demand of Ken Kutaragi the small developers that brought us Thunderforce, Cool Boarders went out of business. Konami's shitty business practices started to appear. Sony cut off their internal structure in Japan for first party. A beginning of a bad start for the upcoming next gen in terms of quality Japanese games. Stuff we got on PS2 were gone on PS3. What happened to Shadow Hearts? It's hostage at Universal Entertainment Inc (ex Aruze). We got Arms' Heart for PSP instead (lol) by Machida. A big disappointment coming from the creator of SH. Stayed in Japan and was never localized like most PSP games. I seriously don't like handhelds so I'm glad Sony has abandoned their handheld division for good. As I enjoyed most first party games from Sony on PS1.
Working Desings wasn't a developer but a publisher localizing Japanese games from Sega of Japan and various other companies that Sega of America decided not to localize for whatever stupid reason they had. Same thing with Renovation for cartridges btw.
You seem to appreciate JRPGs... Have you played monster world 4 (of the wonder boy series) for megadrive? You should add that to your list of genesis games to tackle, it's good stuff. You should also consider playing those working design games (specifically the lunars and dragon force) Where is shining force 3 for Sega Saturn? How have you not played Suikoden 1 - 5 PSX - PS2 (You can cross over completed saves from 1 to 2 and get some really cool in game bonuses... Also, castlevania symphony of the night.. but i figure everyone knows about that one. These are all incredible games...if you haven't played them, don't overlook them!!! You'll be missing out :)
+Joshua Magdaleno I'm having technical difficulties with the PS2 right now. I want to record gameplay on it, but have yet to figure out the best setup for that.
8:50 "...that was critically panned..." And if you made a review of it, it would be critically PAMMED. :D Badum, tss! *instert bad pun dog here* Love your collection, btw.
What is your take on the Retron 5 if you don't mind me asking? I own a snes, nes and genesis and keep it in the second bedroom of my apartment but have been thinking about getting a retron 5 to play those games out in the main living room. Great video and amazing collection. You really do need to sink your teeth into splatterhouse btw!
+MrFlyingSnakes I really like the Retron, I use it all the time for NES and Genesis. I like how the games look on it, it and there are a bunch of different filters to use (or not), scanlines can be turned on or off. It's easier to record game footage since it uses HDMI. Plus save states are great. I've had mine for over a year and the only problem I've ever had with it is that some SNES controllers do not work with it.
+Cannot be Tamed It sounds like a pretty good deal. When you mention certain controllers that don't work are you referring to 1st party controllers in your collection, or 3rd party controllers, or after market controllers? I appreciate the response and the level of detail you put in your videos.
MrFlyingSnakes 1st party controllers. At first I thought the SNES controller ports were broken and I took it to a friend's store and tried about 10 different 1st party controllers on it. Some worked, some didn't.
+Cannot be Tamed That is really bizarre. Some of the features alone sound really cool (the filters). Congrats on your milestone. Looking forward to more of your videos.
Cannot be Tamed Ask,because I've been thinking about getting it now that Nintendo has discontinued a lot of the old school games they used to have for the wii.

This is why collection videos are awesome, they spark ideas for new titles.
I agree
Wow! You guys have some REALLY GOOD Genesis games. I know because I was a Genesis kid too like Will. Your Genesis collection is pure gold. You guys have good taste.
Nice collection. I think I spotted a Blue Snowball at the PC. Love those mics. They're super good quality, and very diverse. I use them for my channel, and music recordings as well.
+YayForBeers Yep, I've had the Snowball for a bit, I really like it.
Love the video. Both you and Will have a very impressive collection.
probably one of the best collection videos i have watched, great content
+Adam Drover Thank you!
Awesome collection. It's cool to see more obscure systems in your collection. I am currently putting together my own game room and came across this video. Thanks for posting. I always get excited/jealous watching game collection videos. Awesome video!
Thanks!
Awesome!! Love these collection videos. Thanks for giving a quick description of some of these games. I want to play a lot of these games now. Lots of games i havent heard of but sound fun.
I miss game manuals. Especially when they are new i would open them up and smell the new manual sent. I can't be the only one who did that.
So happy to see that you have Dark Wizard for Sega CD, probably my favorite game for the system! I have the exact same problem, I also live in an apartment with my fiancée and our collection is scattered... everywhere, lol. Enjoyed seeing some of your top picks from each collection as well!
+Retro Power Up I'll have to put Dark Wizard on my to play list.
+Cannot be Tamed if you like strategy RPGs, it's definitely worth checking out. I also love, love, love the orchestral soundtrack!
an attractive and intelligent gamer. jealous of Will. lucky y'all found each other.
love your videos.
great collection.
I agree with Lifespiller79 that seeing other peoples video game collections can spark new ideas in getting games you have never played before.
You are the second person I know that likes Legend of Dragoon. I will download it off the PS3 or PS Vita next chance I get.

Thx for sharing with us. I was reminded of games I need to find and play again.
Excellent video. You've got your video game things set up nicely.
Great video Pam. I've been talking about doing one of these for a while.
+single banana You should!
Impressive Genesis shooter collection! One of my goals is to have a complete NTSC shooter collection. It's gonna take a long time.
Wish I had the funds for all those Saturn imports. I'll have to burn some rom discs ;)
Always nice to see a fellow collector's assets. Thanks for sharing, Pam (and Will)!
+CartridgeCanuck The Saturn imports are ridiculous. And now we have even more. -_-
I'm glad to see someone else liked beyond good and evil...that was such an underrated game...good story good graphics and gameplay....I really enjoyed that game....
I really like room tours. Some great gems in there. Thanks for sharing. I laughed when I heard wheelhouse. Congrats on 2500 subs!
+Mrs QDawg Thank you! I must have picked up wheelhouse from your videos!
Awesome Room Tour! You should do some Sega Saturn Reviews. My Saturn Collection is small so I always want to hear about hidden gems in other peoples collections. Keep up the awesome work!
Nice. I was a Genesis kid as well. I Spotted M.U.S.H.A. in that Genesis collection. That was a really fun shooter.
Yeah, all the Compile shooters are really great
Way to rock those OG gamer skills!
I've been meaning to make a video for my own collection sometime. You two have great taste in games! Tons of awesome and rare titles ^-^ I especially approve of your preference to the Fatal Frame series :)

yeah I did a lets play on my channel as well.

+Lifespiller79 Thanks! One of the reasons it took so long for me to do this was that I couldn't figure out the best format to show things off.
+Cannot be Tamed That's always my challenge with doing different type of videos. (finding the proper setup)
Love the retro games. Nothing is better.
Thanks!
You guy's have a great collection. Love the box art of the old Genesis games.Great video :)
+atik1798 Thank you!
I think 1942 and 1943 will always be the definitive classic scrolling shooters for me, although I played them on Commodore 64 rather than console.

Ehem Pam, great video! Lol, I like those 6 button controllers on the top of the shelf there.
Thanks!
Nice little set up Pam. I see the Kinivo HDMI switch in the TV stand. Have one of those myself. So handy.
Saturn collection looks quite extensive and in very nice condition too. Everything neatly stored. Nice tour! :)
Echo Night and Echo Night Beyond are both quite cool games. Haunting Ground I'm actually playing through right now for the first time. If you like Clock Tower, Haunting Ground is for you.
Also, a thumbs up for having Folklore as well. :) Do you happen to have Eternal Sonata on 360 or PS3? Very charming and stylish RPG imo.
I played Eternal Sonata for a bit, but I have a problem getting into games with overly adorable characters.

+electricmastro I still really like platformers.
That is a pretty nice collection. I wish i still had my copies of Final Fantasy 7,8 and 9 from back in the day :/
+Skaradox I'm really glad I held on to them, I have very few of my original games.
I definitely need to meet a gamer girl who's into this stuff like I am! You have a great collection, Pam!
I'd love to mess around with Saturn and Sega CD, but I really don't want to spend money on them. Nice collection!
+Brasel TheGamer Thanks! I love Sega CD, there are a lot of cheap games on the system, especially if you don't mind missing artwork.
Star Tropics is my absolute favorite NES game! Well, tied, with Wall Street Kid.
I haven't played Wall Street Kid.
wow, very impressive collection. Especially the SEGA Saturn portion.
I love seeing Classic Concentration on there - that was the other game my mom and I got alongside Super Mario/Duck Hunt when we got the console. I also had Home Alone and my God was it dreadful - but at least amusingly so.

I didn't realize you were a Canadian until I saw your NES. I can usually tell. Great vid, nice collection.
Huh? It's the NTSC one. How is it Canada specific?
+CartridgeCanuck
Distributed by Mattel, two seals of quality, bilingual writing.
That's quite the collection, Pam. Thanks for the tour!
Whoa!! Quite the Sega Saturn and Sega Genesis collection you have there. I also really like your Sega CD and NES collection. Especially since you say StarTropics is one of your favorites. I love that game so much.
Btw, congrats on 2500 subscribers! You deserve way more than that, but it's a great start. Here's to 2500 more. :)
+The Side Quest Gamer Me too! I think I got Star Tropics from my grandma for my first communion. So long ago.
Huh, I've talked to Will on NA in the past. Kind of surprised to see you two are bigger Sega collectors than Nintendo.
+DariaPlaysRPGs Yeah, he's a Sega kid. I'm really more of PS/XBox person. My Nintendo love doesn't go past the NES.
hey cool video, i always like game room tours, and i was very glad that you said you were going to review a turbo grafx game, my neighbor had it when i grew up and for some reason you know not many people had it as much as NES or master system etc so it totally nostalgic for it, its mystical cya

I love FMV and Working Design games. The Sega CD is my second favorite system.
Great Collection! Have a lot of these myself, the Saturn and PS1 are great consoles to collect for :)
Thanks!
Wow, that is a crazy lot of games and systems both of you have. :O
Enjoy your reviews, I have a feeling your channel is going to blow up with subscribers before long. Noticed deadly preminition in your collection, curious if you plan on making a review on it, I loved the directors cut, makes me sad I sold my ps 3, I new I would reget it.
Probably won't do a review of Deadly Premonition. I played it a few years back and though I enjoyed it, it's the kind of game I really only want to play once.
Thats a shame, its a gem in my eye. Cool to see parasite eve 1&2 in there also, heard of a third one called 3rd birthday but never got to play it.
You have a Retron 5, cool! :) My friend let me borrow his so I could play FF6 Advance on my tv, its very nice.
Really awesome collection!
+The Kingfisher 745 Thank you!
Nice collection! And you have an Xeye! That's awesome! I've wanted one of those for a long time! I only have my model 2 with the 32X and all the add-ons and stuff. I only have about 20 Genesis games but I should get more. I've been meaning to play some Genesis RPGs. There aren't THAT many of them but some are pretty good. I've only played about half of Crusader of Centy and Landstalker but I aim to finish those when I finish my current Ocarina and Majora playthroughs. I like action adventure RPGs, as you can probably tell. I have about 500 games myself but some are in storage. Small apartment, you know how it goes. I've been working on getting all the Neo-Geo stuff I can get lately. Don't know if you're a fan but I loves me some Neo-Geo.
Anyway, I have a quick question if you don't mind. Do you play much on your PC? You didn't really mention it. I assume you have a Steam account though. Do you use a keyboard/mouse setup or do you prefer controllers? I just have a PS2-type controller hooked up right now and that works well for me. It's my favorite layout to this day.
+Hezekiah Ramirez I do play on PC. I prefer console when I have an option (for everything except point and click adventure), but I play a lot of indie games on PC on Steam. Lately I've been playing Heroes of the Storm, The Talos Principle, Technobabylon, and I finally finished with Darkest Dungeon after too many hours.
I prefer controllers (I use a 360 controller), though I don't have one set up permanently at my PC due to space and USB port limitations and I often just use mouse and keyboard.
I love that sega collection.
You have good taste in games. I like some of the same games that you do. I have several of the PS1 and 2 games you have.
I cannot imagine moving this collection
+William Bregnard Neither can I.
I spy a copy of Troubleshooter. Definitely hunt down a repro for the sequel which never came out in the US, Troubleshooter 2 (aka Battle Mania Daiginjo.) Such an amazing game.
+Dongled I will keep an eye out for it.
+Dongled Agreed!!
+Dongled Yeah, Battlemania Daiginjo is amazing, one of my favorite Megadrive games.
+Dongled I also spy a copy of Haunting Ground which Mike did a wonderfully, creepy video for ;)
He looks surprisingly good in a dress.
Good taste in games overall. Nice collection. I need to get me a Retron 5! Looks cool!
Its very rare to see anyone talk so positively about Sega CD. I notice no 32x games.
Yeah, no 32x besides the games that came out for both SegaCD and the 32x.
Cannot be Tamed I noticed no Dreamcast either. I bet those cost a pretty penny. I know Neo Geo does
For JRPGs on xbox 360, I highly recommend Tales of Vesperia, although it got ported to ps4 and xbox one now.
You got some real treasures there !!!
I Love your collection, and wow so many sega saturn games, love the sega saturn. :)
+Dragoon Lagi Thanks! The Saturn stuff mostly belongs to my BF, I've just been getting into some of them recently.
PS2 Forever! Have been cheating with a Switch Lite though. Obsessed with Mario Golf. Tomb Raider is my all time favorite series. I'm old, so the Atari 2600 was my first console.
I love retro games and you 😁
Love that Genesis collection Will!
dam dude pander dragoon saga. Killer title. subscribing now
Love the video and collection. 😀
I would love to see you do a video on the Shadow Hearts series. The first SH title is one of my favorite games, but I never hear anyone talk about it or any of the other titles in the series. I just recently got a copy of Koudelka for an arm and a leg (one of my top picks for ps1 titles to hunt down), which I'm really looking forward to playing through when I have the time, and I also really want to get the rest of the titles someday if and when I can afford them.
I'd like to make one some day. I do seem to be reviewing some longer games lately.
Awesome collection!! Your Genesis collection looks a lot like mine, though you may have a few more games than me. Nice PS1 & PS2 collection as well. Do you have Vagrant Story for PS1? It's a great game, but pretty tough.
Do you guys have any SNES games?
And my heart sank when you said that you traded Flintstones and Panic Restaurant; but that's just the hoarder in me. It would pain me to part with any of my games--even the bad ones. Love all of the shooters that you guys own! Congratulations on 2,500 subs!!
+Westapo: Video Games and Loud Music Thanks! I think we had Vagrant story a week ago. It's gone now, traded for TurboGrafx stuff.
We were going for a full NES set, had around 500 games, even had most of the priciest ones, but realised that because there are so many NES games we were still very far away. And there were a lot of bad games that would cost a lot of money. Will decided to redirect his attention to Saturn since it meant more to him, and I was just happy to no longer have 400 games that neither of us would ever play.
Well, if trading those games for others is what makes you guys happy, then I suppose you did the right thing. Tell me you at least got rid of City Connection. That game is garbage.
I like your Ikea side table as I have the same one.:) And why is Fester's Quest more shown off next to your NES box? Fester's Quest isn't talked too much about, but I liked and finished it back in the 80's. I'm old.
Fester's Quest is signed by AVGN. I probably should have mentioned that in the video.
great collection indeed
Thanks!
Very nice collection Pam!
As far as other good Xbox 360 RPG's/games you should check out... Blue Dragon, Ninety Nine Nights, Tales of Vesperia, Infinite Undiscovery, The Last Remenant, Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom, Magna Carta 2, Spectral Force 3, Enchanted Arms & Culdcept Saga..Also checkout Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack The Ripper, The Testament of Sherlock Holmes, DeathSmiles, Akai Katana, Left 4 Dead series
I tried Infinite Undiscovery (what a weird name), Magna Carta and Last Remnant, but didn't really like them. I love the Sherlock Holmes games. Haven't played Jack the Ripper yet, but have played Testament and Crimes and Punishments. Looking forward to playing the newest one too. I've played Deathsmiles, Akai Katana (love those) and Left 4 Dead too.
Lost Odyssey is a stellar game which I noticed you have. Along with TheBadcompany25, I'd have to recommend Blue Dragon which was also made by Sakaguchi through Mistwalker. It's excels in charm and artistic style imo.
Wasn't a very big fan of Infinite Undiscovery myself. I have only the Tales series, Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey on 360.
I miss game manuals too.
love the game tour
That is a beautiful Saturn collection right there.
Keep it coming,just subbed. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome collection!
Have you ever played a Genesis game called Wonder Boy in Monster World? It's a 2D side scrolling action RPG in case you aren't familiar with it.
It's one of my all time favorite Genesis games :)
I haven't played that.
Definitely give it a try if you have the opportunity. There's actually a new game in the series coming out soon. I can't wait!
Will and yourself have an awesome collection. No SNES love?
+Nintendo Hodge We had a smaller SNES collection, but those got traded. Will grew up with Sega and I skipped from NES to PS1 so, while it's got some great games, it's not a high priority console for either of us.
Wow! Great Sega CD & Saturn collection! =)
Thanks!
TRUXTON!
ALL HAIL TRUXTON!
Beautiful collection, thank you for sharing. I'm curious though, how often do you replay games?
It depends on the game. I replay longer favourites like RPGs every few years. Shorter things like Felix maybe once a year or more.
Cool collection
There was another run and shoot (shmup) for the PS1. It was developed by Media Vision when they developed Wild Arms simultaneously. The title is Gunners Heaven in Japan and Rapid Reload in Europe. It was released the week after the PS1 launch in Europe along with Air Combat from namco.
There were more shmup games in Japan for the PS1 like Raiden, Darius series, couple amount of Twinbee games from Konami, and Thunderforce V from Technosoft.
H.Brandt yeah, there are lots of shmups in the PS1, I meant to say it's the only Squaresoft shmup.
+Cannot be tamed There were some technical issues to get games from TecnoSoft to get localized outside of Japan in the early of the fifth gen. Sega Saturn had the superior multiplat versions. Even before Playstation fanboys are saying Saturn was hard to program for, it had a superior sound chip on paper and a elegant architecture if you know how to utilize the Saturn's hardware. It was the most powerful system of all three (PS1, Saturn, N64).
I remember Sony in the West said they didn't wanted straight forward 2D games on their platform in its early life cycle, which is a shame. We could have more shmup and beat em up games from Japan despite that we will get the inferior versions.
Many talks about how last gen was the dark age of gaming, but that's simply not true. The early years of the PS2 was the dark age for small developers in Japan to survive. When AA/AAA development started to increase by demand of Ken Kutaragi the small developers that brought us Thunderforce, Cool Boarders went out of business. Konami's shitty business practices started to appear. Sony cut off their internal structure in Japan for first party. A beginning of a bad start for the upcoming next gen in terms of quality Japanese games. Stuff we got on PS2 were gone on PS3. What happened to Shadow Hearts? It's hostage at Universal Entertainment Inc (ex Aruze). We got Arms' Heart for PSP instead (lol) by Machida. A big disappointment coming from the creator of SH. Stayed in Japan and was never localized like most PSP games.
I seriously don't like handhelds so I'm glad Sony has abandoned their handheld division for good. As I enjoyed most first party games from Sony on PS1.
yes somebody showing shmup love on the genesis and sega cd love,you rock and that collection is loaded with great games
Bill is a lucky dude. So sad to hear about you and him... Love your videos though! Cheers and have fun!
great collection :-)
nice genesis collection
Nice collection!
+rod980 Thanks!
Working Desings wasn't a developer but a publisher localizing Japanese games from Sega of Japan and various other companies that Sega of America decided not to localize for whatever stupid reason they had. Same thing with Renovation for cartridges btw.
You seem to appreciate JRPGs... Have you played monster world 4 (of the wonder boy series) for megadrive? You should add that to your list of genesis games to tackle, it's good stuff. You should also consider playing those working design games (specifically the lunars and dragon force) Where is shining force 3 for Sega Saturn? How have you not played Suikoden 1 - 5 PSX - PS2 (You can cross over completed saves from 1 to 2 and get some really cool in game bonuses... Also, castlevania symphony of the night.. but i figure everyone knows about that one. These are all incredible games...if you haven't played them, don't overlook them!!! You'll be missing out :)
Good stuff! :)
Awesome collection! No snes games???! Do you find you play on the retron more than on the original hardware?
There are a handful of SNES games now. I do tend to play NES, SNES and Genesis more on the Retron than the original hardware.
Great collection! but I think you should keep your PlayStation 2 with the CRT .
+Joshua Magdaleno I'm having technical difficulties with the PS2 right now. I want to record gameplay on it, but have yet to figure out the best setup for that.
Very jealous of that NA Saturn collection. Awesome!
Rule of Rose is worth somewhere in the region of a squillion bucks now.
Which is strange, because I see copies of it in every single retro game store I visit. It's not nearly as rare as the price would indicate.
Hi there!
You have an really wonderful Gaming/Living room ;-)
I like your orderly style, keep on!
Greetings, mano81
+manowarrior1981 Hello, thank you :)
8:50 "...that was critically panned..." And if you made a review of it, it would be critically PAMMED. :D Badum, tss! *instert bad pun dog here*
Love your collection, btw.
haha, thanks
What is your take on the Retron 5 if you don't mind me asking? I own a snes, nes and genesis and keep it in the second bedroom of my apartment but have been thinking about getting a retron 5 to play those games out in the main living room. Great video and amazing collection. You really do need to sink your teeth into splatterhouse btw!
+MrFlyingSnakes I really like the Retron, I use it all the time for NES and Genesis. I like how the games look on it, it and there are a bunch of different filters to use (or not), scanlines can be turned on or off. It's easier to record game footage since it uses HDMI. Plus save states are great. I've had mine for over a year and the only problem I've ever had with it is that some SNES controllers do not work with it.
+Cannot be Tamed It sounds like a pretty good deal. When you mention certain controllers that don't work are you referring to 1st party controllers in your collection, or 3rd party controllers, or after market controllers? I appreciate the response and the level of detail you put in your videos.
MrFlyingSnakes 1st party controllers. At first I thought the SNES controller ports were broken and I took it to a friend's store and tried about 10 different 1st party controllers on it. Some worked, some didn't.
+Cannot be Tamed That is really bizarre. Some of the features alone sound really cool (the filters). Congrats on your milestone. Looking forward to more of your videos.
Great setup thanks for posting :) What camera do you use to do video?
I used my iPhone for this video.
Thanks
Awesome sega cd collection! Snatcher too? Damn
+thegamingphile Thanks!
Is the Retron 5 any good??
Sammy Lane Yeah, I get a lot of use out of it.
Cannot be Tamed Ask,because I've been thinking about getting it now that Nintendo has discontinued a lot of the old school games they used to have for the wii.
Pam, you do your NES reviews on your retron, right?
She's a calm videogame nerd
this is v. cute!!
