"I'm not a hard core collector"
He is probably saying that comparing himself to other collections.
***** it looks like a really chill place to unwind you have to admit
Hugh how does your collection look????
Hugh I wasn't talking about you but I know there are other better collection's out there bro trust me,I just said that to the other guy cuz he quoted what he said n it gives off a smart ass vibe
He's not.. he's missing the stripper pole and the girls.
If you are curious whether I own a newer console: I have the Playstation 4 upstairs in my living room along with games. My Steam computer is a 27" iMac in my Office where I also do my video editing.
MetalJesusRocks Hey Metal Jesus, where did you get those small drawers that you show at 8:15 with all your loose GB/GBA games in them?
I would like to get a PS4 but im sticking with my Wii U for now. The games are really excellent for this console. Awesome Video!
Trail717 All the small drawers I bought at Target over the years. They've got all sizes and cheap so you have more money for games! :)
MetalJesusRocks Thank You! They're so perfect for loose carts, I need to pick some up to make my games more organised!
MetalJesusRocks i only found out the other day that any ps3 will play ps1 games handy trick you should do a tips and tricks video for consoles collecting and tips buying for cheap
"And below here is my weed collection" - MJR
M. Grimaldo and this is my giant bong
ryshenton *The Mighty Bong*
"I think My collection is decent" I think it is pretty damn decent!
I agree with what you're saying, but he'e probably comparing himself to other collectors.
Meh.
Decent must be his word for impressive.
You have to remember who he hangs around. He's friends with the immortal John Hancock for Christ's sake.
I wanna say my collection is nice.. I collect systems over games
Gamestop would offer $20 for all that
lol😂😂😂😂
lol im dead
Well no shit, they wont accept anything past 7th generation
+Jack Schnead, I herd they started accepting retro games to sell online as well. Of course even if that were true you still would only get like 0.19 for a copy of smash bros melee. Something that you could get 50$ for easy money or maybe as much as 80$ if you wanted to sit on it for a while and if it was all in really good shape.
Then try to sell it back to people for hundreds of dollars.
says "i'm not an hardcore collector".
owns 5000 games.
Yeah ...wtf is a hardcore collector then ?
*****
i dont think he has stadium events.
+ILOVECHICKEN698 the people who have ALOT more then 5000 games
@ILOVECHICKEN698 Bronty-2 on DIgitpress paid $3,000 for one of the only known brand new copies of Stadium Events in 2006 (and by contrast with today's market, he was smart to do so even though he seemed worried he'd have to sell things to pay for it.) He was wondering if it was worth it but he was collecting _sealed_ copies of _every_ NES game at the time, I don't know how far he went with it.
5000 games who has time to play all of those that’s hoarding not collecting
"I'm not a hardcore collector." - MetalJesus, '5000 game room tour'
I wish my game room was as cool as this. Oh wait I don't even have one
Same
"Honey! I am so bored, I got no games to play tonight!" :(
Said no MetalJesusRocks ever.
+Bram25 Not really. No :)
+Bram25 I think that feeling stays for ever. I have 150+ physical games and still say ''I have nothing to play''.
+The Trust Well, I imagine from a certain moment you've played all of them at least once. Either that, or you might just be overwhelmed by the amount of options. ^_^'
I agree. I have 60 games but sometimes don't want to play any of them. Silly humans.
Went with the Framemeister recently after watching a bunch of videos on it, and yeah, 110% worth it. Switching isn't really an issue if you get a SCART switch box to hook into it, but those are freaking expensive as well so I haven't done that yet. But yeah, for running pre-HD consoles on a new TV I've never seen better!
Also, awesome update on the game room dude. Really wish I had space to display all my console stuff like that!
***** That's really it, yeah. Considering the cost of other quality A/V equipment I've used it, it's not bad. And I use it for more than just old consoles, so it works out for me!
I have s video cables for all my old systems, if I get the framemeister and hook them into it will it make my games look good? Or should I just get a scart switch box and have them hooked into that and hope it works?
Thanks for the reply, now I'm wondering if i should just get an s video to hdmi converter instead because if I just get the same result I rather go with one that's not $400, or have you gonna through various converters and the framemeister came out the best?
***** yeah I got one from amazon and it was a crap. It was blurry, fuzzy, and a bright light was on sides, I returned it right away. There's a guy from gamesack that said he couldn't capture footage with the framemeister though, I eventally want to capture game footage and when he said that I was a little more reluctant to purchase the framemeister. Does it depend on what software you use?
Alright thanks for replying and I'll definitely consider the framemeister now.
Man I wouldn't leave that basement ever.
Holy shhhhit! Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to make a video. Man, that is a really fucking badass setup. Good job!
Are you actually Jesus Christ
Cooladee yeah he is
I LOVE ROOM TOURS! #Popcorn
me too
Room tours are da bomb
Barnacules Nerdgasm A WILD BARNACULES APPEARS.
Barnacules Nerdgasm OMG! Jerry can I get a shout out on your page?
Matthew Dolby LOL Barnacules sighting at 5:14 on the NES game shelf haha
To those about to play, we salute you
Ac/dc
Or the Carmageddon version:
"To those who are about to die, we salute you"
I've never been more jealous of a room before...
What, you wish you were that room so you could have metal jesus and reggie inside you? Lmao
Funny, I see all that and I think “what a hassle”. I’m so sick of owning so much crap. I’ve kept all my games since I started playing in 1988 and, honestly, I wish I could just sell it all. “Alternative” ways to play games is just so much more convenient. For example, my Gamecube has a GC Loader in it and it literally contains every North American game ever released. And you cannot tell the difference between those .DOL files and the physical discs (well actually, the games load faster so maybe you could tell that way).
@@leeartlee915 -> You could sell it all if you want.
-> No, not all games work the same when emulating.
-> As a kid I bought a M3 for my NDS, I've never finished games on my DS after that. It gave me too much choice and it was all for free, I just didn't care about what I had after that.
-> I have to own a game (physical) to give a damn about it, it's the same for music, movies and books.
gamestop would give u some dust and a 5 dollar gift card to sara
XD
Then ask if you want to pre order any games and if you'd like a subscription to GameInformer.
Then you choke a bitch.
Cromalles this shouldn't be as true as it is
DUST??? you get dust at your gamestop damn...they would offer to spit in my face and a 5 dollar gift card to arbys with 24 cents left
And now, you know why I don't do business with them.
I had an Atari Lynx when I was a kid and I loved California games! Couldn't put it down, but my cousin stole it and sold it.
Barnacules Nerdgasm - Well, Jerry you can come over and play with my Lynx baby!
Hi Bernacules,I'm a great fan of your show,I know I'm out of topic..but you are an expert so maybe you can help me..
how can I find a pin connector replacement for my shitty retron5? After a few test a lot of pin popped out..on the famicom ,snes and nes connector..
And hyperkin said I'm out of warranty because I'm not in the USA (I'm in italy)...and the ebay seller is magically disappeared..
So sad..
Please someone help meeeeee!
"I'm not a hardcore collector" ~ the guy who has almost 5,000 games and 40+ consoles
I'm really jealous. This is a fabulous collection. My husband doesn't have the same gaming passion as I, so he doesn't understand how awesome this is. My collection is small but growing !
"I have a lot of the really good ones, as you see here." *Shows off Seaman.*
what I really like about your collection is your not like most collectors on youtube who just buy every games for system. you only have consoles and games that you like and play. Awesome collection!
this dude is never bored
This is in Seattle, where it rains a whole lot. Do you have some kind of flood protection? It'd suck if all that was ruined :\
yeah but what about the rare stuff? i'm sure that's a few things in there that can't really be replaced too easily
this is a good point. lol
insurance companies don't give a fuck about video games/niche collector stuff
ive seen that happen before
seth eh? seriously? game collecting is same as art but wow, i didn't realize that. i guess they only value gold and silver and such items
I live in seattle. People think it rains a lot but its nothing compared to the east coast. We dont have floods. We have a constant drizzle over fall and winter with occasional hard rain but its never that serious.
Yeah I had a flood ruin my collection, insurance company wouldn't pay out because I didn't have a expert value them
Awesome vid. I been binging your channel lately. So glad i found it. You and your crew rock.
Does your turntable have a laser head or do you use a needle? I heard that Vinyl wears out pretty fast with a needle.
Barnacules Nerdgasm Old school diamond needle...and no, they don't wear out fast at all. I've had the same needle for a few years now. And a good balanced arm of a turntable should never damage the vinyl record
All I noticed was the sick Opeth poster
Wow--Memories kept flooding in looking through the numerous systems and games-. SO GLAD I stumbled on this channel the other day. Instantly subscribed. Nostalgia galore and makes me want to collect!
Been viewing your vids for a while now but just subscribed, nearly everything game related I type in you have a video for, that’s quite impressive!!
You're lucky you live in a country in which you can do this. My country has no market for old games, nor for getting a big house to store all of this. My congrats !
In which Sierra games have you worked on ?
Yep, I agree with this... it's amazing, absolutely stunning collection, but i live in Spain and those "home" markets so usual on USA and England didn't exist, also, USA it's like an entire continent, I have a modest NES/GB/GBA collection, but make something similar to a complete retro collection... it's beyond economic possiblites for "normal" people. retro is only on specialized shops and ebay... all excesive expensive.
In fact it's better but more difficult to get cheap old games outside US/UK/Germany because the major markets are already destroyed by resellers who buy everything and pile it up and then wait and wait and wait .... and don't reduce price until they run out of cashflow, very bad for collectors.
You need to try and get imports from England/Japan from cheaper sites or with good eBay deals at correct times. Best of luck, my friend! I am in the North of England, and it's nowhere near as good as Japan/Aussieland/America, however, England is still one of the best places in the world for video games (maybe top 5). Remember that these UA-camrs are in the very best parts of America for collecting. :)
USA always best
Jar of flies vinyl, pure awesomeness.
Gunnar Frantzich That Jar of Flies vinyl is cool because it's a double record with their other e.p. SAP on the the other side.
MetalJesusRocks Man oh man, Right Turn has all the greats in one on it, Love that track.
Man that display of tes games is so cool, it's the third video of yours I watch and I'm definitely not regretting my subscription at this point
Great room tour MetalJesus! I mean I know i have watched this vid like 500 times and commented every single time lol anyway could you do a top ten favorite consoles of all time vid, like computers, handhelds, and home systems? That would be an awesome vid...
Blown away. You are a true gaming enthusiast.
Yea me too I don't care for the boxed ones also.
"I'm not a hardcore collector"
*Talks about collecting in every episode*
I'm 19 and have been a HEAVY sports gamer, specifically NBA 2k series. But you inspired me to branch out and try some new stuff and I've never had more fun playing games. Thank you so much!
Can I come over for sleepover.I'll shout the pizza and beer.Your game room is amazing 😊👍
I 100% agree that PS2 is the best. Games such as Ratchet & Clank, Spyro, Rumble Racing, Tekkan and Crash Bandicoot bring back so many great memories....love them :)
And Simpsons hit and run first game I had and still my favourite
jak and daxter series also silent hill metal gear solid
+Alex G237 Yeah i know but Nintendo 64 was so epic too i can't really decide from both of them :)
+Alex G237 Yeah! I'd love to see a good new Crash Bandicoot game, and even a new Crash Team Racing.
+Kongo So pick them both bro! I grew up with them to, and let me tell you, I PICK BOTH =D!
Your channel is awesome and you’ve given me some great ideas for our room. Keep it up!
Thanks for all of your uploads over the years. My 4 year old son and I spend hours watching your videos and then going off to try and find these retro games to play and beat with each other. My 4 year old son has now declared he would love to be a game collector like Metal Jesus. Keep up the amazing work. The humbly poor, GamePadDad.
+MetalJesusRocks i am newly subscribed , but man i have an addiction to your videos i watch em all in just two weeks , i like how you follow your hobby even its hard to collect also you talk in confident way without script .. keep it up man you are the best \m/
You're missing out on one important system, and that is the NEO-GEO!! Aside from that, a truly epic collection of systems and games right there!
The games are uber pricey
+Garnet Bezanson I know but... Neo-Geo! Those are such great games.
+Kristian Persson At least he has the pocket xD
Love the set. You inspired me to make my own collection! Thanks for showing us!
5,000 games? That pretty impressive for a space that size... I think I'm only at around 4,200 games if you're only counting physical copies.
SeeJayAre Impressive! I have to use storage for my extras, which I address this at the end of the video. I really didn't think anybody would want to see all the boxes opened in storage however. Also if you notice, I really don't show every single section of the game room because I didn't want this video to be an hour long. Nobody would watch it!
MetalJesusRocks I would watch it.... lol Great room!
SeeJayAre I could do a multi-part video and go through every single section piece by piece if people really wanted it. Kinda like what PatTheNESPunk did... but that would be very time consuming...
MetalJesusRocks do it for NES and SNES
MetalJesusRocks Why not make videos of each collection, that's 45+ videos to upload, am I right?
What a awesome Gaming Room, very nice Collection, greetz from Germany. You Rocks 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I've watched this a few times to get ideas for my game room. Those power strips are a really cool idea. Love the videos man!
Great video and tons of memories! Thank you for sharing.
Great video! You deserve more subs dude!
outatime85 Yes neo geo
Nice "Game Room" Jesus :D
Awesome dude. Totally happy to have come across your video :)
You have a really nice collection, I'm watching your video's for a couple of years really like your channel, Keep up uploading !! :D Regards Wicked Gamer & Collector from The Netherlands.
where is the wii u
andrew southward Nintendo is asking the same question.
Upstairs in the living room
@Metal ...you should have told him the truth, at his Mom's house.
andrew southward in the trash
In the trash
DREAM THEATER!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve watched this a few times...seeing Montross on vinyl wasn’t expected though! 👏🏽 great collection by what looks to be one of the nicest guys ever! Thanks Metal Jesus!
awesome collection brother, haven't seen the Police Quest games from Sierra in YEARS, omg the amount of fun i had with those
shows top gamecube games
doesnt show melee
and no Mario sunshine
@@littlea420 He has 2 copies of mario sunshine if you look closely.
Thank God he didn't.
@tek O There are a lot of GameCube games that deserve more recognition than Melee.
Metal jesus can you please post images for all of your psp games.. I just want to see your collection but they are not clear..
+Mohamed Abdulatief tomorrow
@ATM3 2BSE i get the feeling that you are just jealous of him because your life is a disgrace to human kind
I would like that too
+ATM 322 jealous much ?
Ceman when does he says his political views ?
Absolutely unreal video man! Thoroughly enjoyed seeing your collection. Brought back a lot of awesome memories, especially the PS1, PS2, XBOX original and PC big box games. Amazing stuff! Has inspired me to add more to my own collection. Thanks!
I've only just started watching your channel, but I'm absolutely loving it! I spotted Thief & Thief II in your big-box PC collection... AWESOME! My fave game series of all time. Keep up the amazing stuff - cheers mate!
I need an Atari 2600, I'm missing it! However you have a redundancy since your 7200 can play the 2600 games.
Barnacules Nerdgasm Yes, that is the beauty of the Atari 7800 is that it plays both...and it's sleek and sexy!
Some of the 2600 games with strangely shaped cartridges are a little difficult but they can fit in a 7800 (or, if you have a Game Brain game switcher, you can use that.)
Jesus that's impressive.
+Jay Pxxzy i see what u did there
metal jesus rocks i'm addicted to your channel :D great videos thank you so much for making me happy
Priceless to see when someone has collection like that and loves it that much.
I don't consider myself a collector, but I have a nice amount of games. I have like 15 for my N64 30 for the Wii, 5 For the original Xbox, like 40 for the Xbox 360, like 15 for the gamecube, 5 for Gamboy advance, two for GamBoy Color 6 for DS, 5 for 3DS, 3 for he PSP, and something like 5 PC games. I also have a big pile of pirated PS1 games, but I guess those don't count. I also own every console I mentioned.
Fun fact: My copy of Ocarina of Time for the N64 is a grey copy of V1.0 I bought here in Mexico, too bad I played lots with it and lost the box with all of its contents and the sticker on the game is a bit damaged from all the pushing and pulling of the game.
PS: You collection is awesome :)
I have the grey cart too!
I am no collector ether but i have a few Nintendo stuff, NES with three games(yes one is Mario Bros), a Nintendo 64 with again only 4 games, A Super Nindento with Mario kart(yes i have that just for that game because it was such an awesome childhood memory so i bough a Super Nintendo again just so i can play that game, i had like 20 games etc on it but i sold them along with the console except that game).
All this i had when i was a child really but didn't have the money to buy much games(except the 64. I was a teen with some money from odd jobs but i bought mostly for PS1 at the time).
I have a Wii with about 20 games. Basically i bought it for getting The Resident Evil remaster games and the Project Zero games and the famous Nintendo titles like Metroid and Mario stuff and got a few rare gems every now and then also but in general i wasn't into the Wii because i didn't find the whole motion thing very great and multiplatform games looked better on other consoles so.
The big part of my lets say collection is the Playstation. I have about 35-40 PS1 titles and a PS1(my teen years have a lot of PS1 in them) and of course my bright and joy my PS2 games that count literally to hundreds of titles(i finally had a job and money, lol). I never counted but i am pretty sure i have more than 300 games(who knows maybe even 500) and the great thing is that most of them are the really good titles of PS2 and is not filled with useless sport games etc. Some really rare gems in that collection that ended as a big collection without me realizing. I still play my PS2 very often because i have so many great games on it(Yes i actually do own a copy of Rule of Rose).
As about PS3? Well i think i have something around 150 games for it and this still is my main console right now because i haven't yet bought a new generation console(i am a late adopter, it allows me to buy games cheaper) so i still am buying games for it.
I also have a PSP with 12 games. I actually bought it initially because i wanted to play the Parasite Eve game on it since i was a fan from PS1. Otherwise i am not into hand held stuff.
Lastly i have an Xbox with about 30-35 exclusive titles(i did my gaming on my PS2 but damn it i wanted to play Chronicles of Riddick and Halo so i bought one when i found a good price on it, also Knights of the old Republic and Morrowing had a console release only on it).
I also have a 360 with about 45 Xbox 360 exclusives also.
Generally a decent number of games and systems but nothing that can be called a collection because no handheld systems other than PSP, no Sega stuff(my cousin had one so we played Sonic at his house and Mario at mine), no Atari(i actually had one as a small kid but it got lost),.
I also have around 200 PC games but i stopped buying physical versions for them since in Pc many times are unplayable when OS and hardware changes etc and you can't really find old PC's to buy like with consoles.
And here I am, with only 2 games of ps2
I didnt know john petrucci was a gamer
Thank you for showing us your amazing collection.
Beautiful! Brought back so many good memories.
5:24 not a hard core collector... I'm pretty sure your collection can stick a store for about 3 years.
stock even.
man you could get like 60 bucks for all that at game stop and buy the next COD!
I'm gonna listen to all those albums in yr LP collection. NICE!
Glad to see I'm not the only one with borderline OCD when it comes to keeping things (especially games & consoles) organized and dust-free. My place is a much smaller version of yours where I keep my collection behind glass door shelves ;) Just found your channel and enjoyed your reviews - very cool man!
I have an actual game related, non-booze question. What is more valuable to a collector: An unwrapped pristine PC box game, or a sealed, wrapped PC box game that has been distorted because the shrink wrap kept on a-shrinkin'?
I prefer good to great condition non-sealed games. I won't go out of my way to avoid sealed games, but I definitely am not willing to pay extra for them, as is usually the case. As you point out, Paul, the shrink wrap continues to shrink over time and can lead to box deformation. Plus, there's now a growing number of scammers out there who re-shrink incomplete games and sell them as "sealed", knowing that the collector most likely will meet open it.
So for me, I have no desire to collect shrink-wrap. While it's nice to know (barring scammers) that your games are truly complete, not being able to open them up and go through all the contents kind of defeats the purpose, IMO. But, to each their own. There's no shortage of cellophane freaks (as John Hancock calls them) who go ga-ga for the Saran Wrap. It's just not my scene.
DrunkenMasterPaul - Finding a shrink wrapped game has a neat "WHOA!" factor, but at the end of the day I don't seek them out...and honestly, you have to be really careful with them if you want to preserve it, which can be annoying. I much prefer an open PC game with a great box, that way I can geek over the manual, maps, trinkets and game catalogs if it has them.
MetalJesusRocks I would agree with that. I tend to buy my toys to play with them, not put them on a shelf, so I would lean towards "open and pristine". Not unlike Mrs. DMP.
Good point, DMP. Within the context of martial bliss, it's probably best to enjoy a great condition box as is, since I can easily see "shrink-wrap cosplay" in the bedroom going horribly, horribly awry.
Hi Paul,I'm a great fan of your show,I know I'm out of topic..but you are an expert so maybe you can help me..
how can I find a pin connector replacement for my shitty retron5? After a few test a lot of pin popped out..on the famicom ,snes and nes connector..
And hyperkin said I'm out of warranty because I'm not in the USA (I'm in italy)...and the ebay seller is magically disappeared..
So sad..
Please someone help meeeeee!
Where is the ps vita?
I remember watching you Jesus from the very start and you knew your shit about games but just didn’t have much. This channel has gotten so big ever since. I’d say at least 70% of your collection is through fans and UA-cam money which is unbelievable. I need to start a channel so I can get a game room like this through fans, you’re the god Jesus keep on keeping on!
So much geek on this channel, I absolutely love it!
2:19 you say ablibliol?? whats that
oh sorry its yabliblioal
Lol I think he said "maybe a little bit more"
collectable ?
If you listen carefully, he clearly says "brittle bubble mill boar, y'all".
"I'm not a hard core collector." ... Realfuckingly ??
MetalJesusRocks needs more subscribers! Such an awesome genuine dude
DUDE I ENVY YOU LIKE YOU HAVE NO IDEA; But in the good sense. Now, I like how much you know about it.. Your game room it's like a dream for me, and also you have a drum and a punch of guitars. GOd bless you for being such a great man and of course for sharing all your knowledge and stuff with us . Good luck !
You're missing the Phillips CDi! xD
legokerik
Nobody misses the Philips CDI. That was a horrible game console.
Movie Nerd I'll you decide if I was or wasn't being sarcastic.
legokerik_ lol
He said he has a collection of discs but obviously not the console. There was a cartoon game like Cliffhanger I got hooked on back in the day. It was real hard though. There also was this creepy game that had these black clothed thugs doing a home invasion with Dana Plato.
He's not missing it, he just lost it... on purpose. Rightfully so. ;)
do you own a playstationtv
+Samuel Harris I do now...
lol pls adopt meh XD (jk)
what was the orange gun i have one my cousin gave it to me so what is it
+patrick star It's been a while but I think it's a guncon 2
***** english may not be his first language...also it sounds a lot like; me, but a punny way of saying it (could be any number of reasons). "Simple minded kids" meh is slang with utility. Just found out it's even in my phone's "dictionary".
Just found your channel and I am hooked
Look forward to your next room tour. Your new shelving looks sweet.
your voice is almost identical to XBOX's Major Nelson
Cool collection, I'm so sick of DLC's and downloads I love having the 'physical' box and manual. Games were so much better before all the HD lark, the exception being 'the witcher 3' . I mean I do enjoy Cod online but it's tiresome having a different version out every year with a crap 3 hour campaign. Make FPS great again - Doom, Quake, Goldeneye. Hate the new Doom, hate it eurghhh 😀hopefully we'll reach a point where we will get some genius and brilliant new game franchises!
I am just starting out as a collector. And hope to have as big a collection as yours one day. Love your collection. I drool watching your videos.
You don't have any idea how much envy I'm feeling right now. Your place is the mecca of videogames!
I don't know how some people do it, but I only wish I had a fraction of the money pissed away here to support some of my desires.
+Shifty1940 A wise man once said "Half of the money I've gotten in my life has been pissed away on booze and women. The other half I wasted."
Anyway, it's a funny quote but I think the point is that happiness is more valuable than pretty much anything else in life. If you don't have the cash that's just the way it is and I hear that (I'm far from wealthy myself) but I think if you love games and they hold value to you that's more than enough reason to spend some time and money on it. I think people like MJ here and some others I could name prioritize things a little differently from others. I'm not saying he doesn't take care of his responsibilities, I'm sure he does, but it does seem like game collecting is one of the things he thinks is worth it and since it's his life he's absolutely right. Just my two cents but I think the way people do it is by taking stock of what they want their lives to be and do what they can to make it that way.
A poor man can have his health and I'm sure a rich man would rather exchange all his money if he could stop something like terminal cancer. Wealthy people are known to collect fast which becomes an addiction it happens with clothes, cars, hookers, drugs, everything spirals out of control and why so many go into debt to try and live the same lifestyle. lol live a broke man and you'll appreciate things in life more as you worked harder for that 1 game you wanted
It was a lot cheaper from 2003 - 2010 though, before the collector boom. I bought SO many consoles and games (a few rarities) for peanuts then because it was just "old junk" sitting unused and it was in low demand.
Shifty__ don't be blue dude,get a job,save some money , it's not that hard
I cover my consoles too, it keeps the dust out. Plus I smoke like a chimney, and don't want all the smoke getting in them. Whether you smoke or not is irrelevant though, as dust is still going to get into your consoles because they're constantly pulling and pushing air when on. The best way to keep your consoles clean and working over the long term is to clean them out every now and then with compressed air, and reseal your graphics chips/processors with decent thermal compound. If your consoles overheat, dont use them! Instead, reapply thermal compound ASAP, or risk destroying your console.
can I use anything to cover it, or does it has to be some specific material? I have a 500gb ps3 super slim. Also, doesn't using compressed air blow the dust into the inside of the console? will a vacuum work better? Sorry, for all the question
Almighty Pete Never us Vacuums with electronics.I learned that when I got my Comp TIA certification. Vacuums can cause a build up of static electricity, and you can destroy a motherboard this way. Its best to take the consoles apart in a static free environment (no carpet), and just clean them with isopropyl alcohol and compressed air. The biggest problem is static electricity when servicing consoles. If you don't have one, you can buy an anti-static wrist strap for like a few dollars on Amazon or ebay.
No, compressed air will not blow dust into your console. That's a terrible myth, and one I keep hearing a lot these days that simply isn't true.
As far as covering them goes. I just wrap mine in a plastic trash bags, pull the strings tight, and then place them in storage containers. Works great.
You can also use an air purifier that if run on a regular basis will keep your consoles clean inside and out. They're not cheap.
okay, thank you! I've had collections of consoles and over 150 games when I was a child and plan on working on a even bigger collection and I want to take proper care of everything.
Almighty Pete Same here. I'm trying to build u a collection again myself. I've got a few hundred original XBOX and PS2 games, so working on those collections for now. I unfortunately sold a lot of my games to cover unpaid bills over the last few years, just the way it goes I guess. Right now most used games including retro titles are at rock bottom prices, its a buyers market.
yeah, my biggest collections were my GameCube and original xbox collection. I'm working on my PS1 & PS3 collection at the moment. I often find games for about 5 bucks on eBay :)
I appreciate that you keep your consoles covered. Great idea!
This gameroom is what I hope I can have set up one day, awesome set-up!
ur not metal jesus. ur game jesus
yua ariga
Plastic Jesus.
Is anyone else kinda pissed off that the ps-vita didn't take off?? (I'm typing late at night so keep that in mind) OK, so I haven't looked at any videos about why the vita is dead, or any analytics, but it seems no one took one because there was nothing for it. There was nothing for it because no one took it. I mean come on, there's not even google chrome! Not even Instagram!!!! I know its just for games but it could be so much more! Sadly, the vita is kind of Sony's google + if u know what I mean; I read somewhere "google + was the orphan that no one really wanted nor cared about" lol. So PS vita, pitty. Its kind if useful for wen im on ps3 and don't want to type with my controller, and it had some amazing games! Let's not forget the feel goods like tearaway and LPB Vita. I still have mine for the plane, but could do with some TLC.
R.I.P vita. *moment* *of* *silence*
Thanks for reading my shit.

Probably because Nintendo has a monopoly on the handheld market. I only have 1 psp game. I would like to collect for it. Any recommendations?

You can't beat a big box PC box. Many of them have some truly beautiful art.
I love that you put Biker Mice From Mars as one of your snes games you were showing off. That game was my life and passion as a 4 year old. Still an awesome game today with a great soundtrack.
