Well this week i'm finally getting paid :D
So i've decided its about time to buy a new console (or handheld), but i am struggling to choose...This is what i already have:NES (Deluxe edition with ROB and zapper)
Dreamcast
N64
Xbox
Gamecube
PS1
Wii
PS3
Gameboy
Gameboy Colour
DS Lite
PSP (Original and Slim)
Gameboy AdvanceThey keep me busy lolI'm tempted to go for a Virtual Boy or a Panasonic Q ( i'm afraid i do like shiny things), or get the Mega Drive which i loved when i was younger.Anyway any ideas would be great, retro is good, rare is better :)So basically i'm just looking for ideas and things to spend my money on, what do you think?

didn't virtual boys hurt your eyes or something?hmm....SNES? ps2? atari 2600, 5200, 7600, atari lynx and jaguar, xbox 360 (although I suggest against it), SEGA genesis (highly recommend for those sonic games ^_^)

lol yes they give you headaches apparently and there was a rumour about seizures, but unfortunately i cant help being tempted :)i do love sonic so the sega will probably, knowing me i'll probably go out and buy a few, then the problem would be finding room for everythingooh an atari is tempting, which one do you think would be the best one to buy?theres just too much choice :)

2600, I believe thats the one that had the most "memorable" games

Gameboy Advancewell, you have some nice systems that you have!
if you want rare, try to get,1- cdi-though they don't have that many games and most are fmv [full motion video] games, the system is hard and expensive to get.2- 3do-it is similar to the cdi except it has a better library of games [both fmv and your regular games[platforming, shooting, etc.]]. there are 3 versions to get [panasonic fz-1 and fz-10 and the goldstar 3do]. the goldstar and the fz-1 are trayloaders and the fz-10 are toploaders, which one to get is upto your desiring in the look of the system, but the rare one to get is the goldstar. problems with each system version is that the goldstar is temperamental [you may get jammed trays or that you're games don't load] as well as it may or may not play back-ups [aka copied games]. if you plan to play back-ups, get either the fz-1 or fz-10.3- do you love imports?! if you love imports then you may want to invest in a sega saturn system. though the system died 2-3 years later after release, it had stronger sales in japan.4- want to waste money, buy a neo geo game system. it is not the system that would make the hole in your pocket or wallet, but rather the cost of the games.5- you have a ps1, what about the black ps1. what are it's features?? i don't remember. ;Dbtw, you can get some insigths [thoughts and comments on each system by going to gamefaqs.com, choosing which system you're interested on and selecting the systems faq.virtual boy?? look around and you can actually get a good bundle for a modest price.getting a mega drive [which region??]. try to get the model 1 for the cd system, though it is temperamental, it is rare as hell.

as for a 360...i know i should really buy one,but i think i'll wait for microsoft to stop releasing more versions and just buy the best,unfortunately, i am the sort of person who would buy one, then want the newer one as soon as it was released lol :D

you should hold off on the neo geo. since you own a wii and snk is releasing games for the wii in like 1 game or so a month, you're better off just wait for them to release the games for wii. i would not want someone spending thousands of dollars on something they can get cheaply [the guilt is too strong].

Thank you, but i'm afraid i have another odd habit. I like to play games on the consoles they were made for, i actually bought my Gamecube after my Wii.
No wonder everyone thinks i'm strange :D

Ummm...kayleigh2108, I don't want to be a party pooper or anything like that, but please do your best to avoid multiple posting, as it's against the forum rules, if you need to add something to an earlier post or accidentally posted an unfinished post (gee look at the redundancy), use the "modify post" button
