My new state-of-the-art video game system!
That's right...it's the Panasonic 3DO. 32-bit processor, a whopping 2MB of RAM, 1MB of VRAM, and a 2x CD-ROM drive. Jealous? I thought so. And this is to add to my already vast arsenal of video game consoles.
Anyhow, I created another thread similar to this a while back, but since nobody reads that forum, I'll post it here. In case anybody is getting rid of some old gaming systems, let me know and I could possibly buy them from you.

I used to have turbo grafix but i think i just threw it out in the trash one day cause i haven't seen it in 3-4 years. Only had like 3 games for it, but it was pretty cool. I liked how the games were like little credit cards.
Good luck with your search for systems, you got a pretty nice collection goin on.
And for anyone with a PS3 or X360: Pick up Batman: Arkham Asylum. I honestly think it's one of the best games I've played. And I got it for only $38 at Best Buy (though that deal is over now).
And mb you can pay me and ill set ur home theatre up for cheap :P
ill post a pic of my new setup
My DS and PSP just sit in my drawer. I usually bring them with me on flights, but always just end up listening to music or watching shitty movies. Anyhow, I already have a place that I'm going to get a Gamecube from, so that's that. Atari 2600 should be an easy find. I've also always wanted a Virtual Boy, but could never find one at a decent price.
I used to be that typical Nintendo fanboy who would defend all of their stuff, but I doubt I'll buy any future Nintendo systems. Control scheme, though at first looking fresh and interesting, is a complete gimmick and the system is severely lacking in the games department.
I'm still debating whether or not I should get a 360. Other than maybe Mass Effect and maybe Gears of War, everything else is cross-platform. The PS3 just has more exclusives that I want to play. I'll definitely pick one up once the Elite goes down in price though.
Also i can get u a premium one thats pre-modded, lifetime warranty and an upgraded fan for 220. I can get it with the bigger hd for a lil more. but if you want the black one pick it up now. i also heard there only gunna be white as soon as all the premiums get phased out.
Also mass effect is awesome, on the second playthrough now.
And yeah, exclusives are a big deal. Metal Gear Solid 4 was all I needed to bring me to PS3. God of War III is going to be fucking crazy, and GT5 is going to be out by the end of the year. The Last Guardian, made by the same people who made Shadow of the Colossus, looks like it'll be pretty cool. SotC was one of the best games i played on PS2. The Uncharted games are pretty good too. So yeah, nothing against XBox, but for now I'm preferring the PS3 library.
I actually am thinking about grabbing the ps3 slim for the bluray player but i'm not to keen on any of the exclusives offered on the ps3 other than god of war. I've found an easy way to play mkv's on my tv so i may just hold on if i can find a good source of hd movies and such.
I didnt own a ps2 or ps1 so that explains why im not to into games like metal gear and gran turismo. Gran turismo and forza equally suck though. Forza is literally unplayable if you turn traction/stability control off.
furthermore the online aspect of it lacks major
only game that makes the xbox worth shit is halo
i remember playing bomberman on that, good times
