It seems every retro game collector knows about the Nintendos, Segas Playstations and other popular consoles. Anyone of you collect for an uncommon console like N-Gage? TurboGraphx16? I'm trying see anything I'm missing out on!  I know this isn't a REAL console, but you get the idea! =D |

I have the n gage, unfortunately it's broke and I gotta get it fixed. I want to see how really awful it is. as far as other uncommon consoles i collect for are the Turbo Grafx16 which is such and underrated gem of a console. if you can find em cheap I highly suggest picking up Ninja Spirit, Bloody wolf, any of the bonk games, Splatterhouse and Double dungeon I also enjoy collecting the coleco mini arcades, I own Pac man and Donkey kong and would love to find all of them but especially the space invaders and frogged one. I played the crap out of those at my cousins back in the day |

I sold mine to Maxx Sanchez on the Winnipeg retro buy sell Facebook page. I sold it for parts because I couldn't get it up and running but he might have had better luck. Anyways as far as obscure consoles I absolute love collecting for the Bandai Wonderswan! Only have a handful of games since they are all import only but I did get my Final fantasy version of it backlit modded. It's pretty sweet =D

I'm pretty much just nintendo consoles now, so I dont really collect for too many uncommon systems. Does the virtual boy count? If so, then that is my answer lol

I'm pretty sure Virtua Boy counts! Thanks pretty uncommon! It's funny when it's on a shelf w/ the stand, looks like a monster!  Does anyone think Virtua boy games are actually good? are there any fun titles? |

I haven't heard that in Winnipeg in like... well... EVER? lol  For everyone wondering what the WONDERSWAN was, it's like a GBC? right? How many games for it do u have? What's the Final Fantasy version look like? and Backlit modded is cool! Looks touchy, but worth it. did u mod it yourself? |

Only have 5 games for it right now. Final Fantasy I, II, IV, Pocket Fighter and Beatmania. The FF games are almost on the GBA remake quality and are excellent as the series demands. As for the backlight I got a guy from the states to hook me up with the mod Rose Colored Gaming. I have been wanting to meet up with you guys sometime so I can let ya demo them if ya like. =D Ill send ya a PM. |

Does anyone think Virtua boy games are actually good? are there any fun titles? Its a flawed design (just straight black and red) so even the decent games are hard to play for that long. but there are a few decent games. I like mario clash, mario tennis is alright, and i have heard that warioland is the best virtual boy game there is. I havent played many of them, so I cant answer that well lol |
