ave's collection

[ave]

Mh, Directupload seems to make issues only to people located in Japan. I remember Yakumo's ranting about it as well.. guess I'll have to switch to imageshack :)

[Tatsujin]

cool yeah :)

imageshack never made any troubles.
for example, your sig as it is now, is just a huge space eating, in one raw of three "DU - no hotlinking allowed" aligned logos:lol:

Finally a complete Saturn Mogitate collection! :dance:


It's rather easy to get all the Mogitate discs but really a tad harder to get them all complete with flyers, letters and tapes. I compared with Satakore and all I'm actually missing are two small sheets w/some text (both had been w/Vol.2) and the cardboard slipcase for the Sonic Adventure promo VHS. But then again I got a Sakura Taisen Teigeki Graph poster that Madroms is missing.
Anyway, I'm really happy to close this chapter now. Fuck the two sheets and the slipcase, I won't buy a third set. ^^

I was already owner of all 6 Mogitate discs so I am going to sell the last 5 of them (the most interesting ones anyway as the first disc was more or less just introducing the whole thing) in a couple of days. I can just recommend it, any Saturn fan will be more than satisfied with the content. There's video footage from the TGS, they visit developers such as WARP, Capcom, Compile and Game Arts and there's every Segata Sanshiro spot ready to watch without having to play fucked up shit games in a certain trash game.
+ Making Of the christmas Segata-spot & interview "retrospective on the character of Segata Sanshirou" by mr. kamen rider^^

I really need to get the follow-up DC Express discs. If they are just half as good as the Mogitate ones it's gonna be beyond awesome. :pray:

/EDIT
Changed the hoster to Imageshack.

and again a pic-hoster which makes some troubles here:crying:

[yourTom]

thats a shiny Egret2 , may i ask how much you paied ?

[ave]

It was about 3 and a half Wii's shipped right to my room. Just had to seize this chance as I know the seller in person (shmup meets), can phone him anytime if there are problems/questions and the price was really good.

Now all I need is a PS2 & Saturn Jamma-adaptor.

[yourTom]

any screen burn ?

[ave]

Nope, blank n bright Toshiba screen. Built in 1998 it has 35000 credits on its back.

[undamned]

I really enjoy your Japan pics! Maybe I'll put mine up one of these days :icon_bigg

[ave]

Thanks undamned! Excited to see your pics too, it's always nice to get new impressions from Japan.

I found a shop that sells protector plastic things today so I just had to buy a package of 100. Set me back 7€, not a cent more than if I had bought a 100 online w/shipping. Anyway, I finally found the time to repack my Famicom collection which, as far as I can remember, I have not yet taken detailed pictures of. The new sexy clothing that my FC games obtained today gave me enough motivation to take pictures.

Enjoy the shiny sparkle sparkle, makes them look mintier than they are :lol:


part 1


part 2


Nintendo games


Hudson & Namcot games


Capcom, Konami, Irem, Jaleco & Natsume games
The Goonies is upside down >_>


dB Soft, Tecmo, Taito and games of various publishers.

[Tchoin]

Wow that is so sexy!
Those Famicom games look immaculate while in those plastic wraps. I bet you had a long fun afternoon wrapping everything up :110:

On-line or local to you? I'd love to get my hands on some of these for my Rockman Famicom boxes. Did they have slips for other sizes like GameBoy and such?

I've got some semi-hard cases for my US NES game boxes as well as another size for my SNES/N64 boxes, but they are just too big for anything else.

Local, online wasn't so difficult. There are quite some offers on ebay as well as on pages like "protected.de". Don't know if and for how much they ship abroad though.
The Famicom bags are actually CD ones, I just flapped the plastic around the back and fixed it with some tape. It's a little circumstantial to just get out a cartridge and play but on the other hand I've already put all the carts I really like in a seperate carton next to the Famicom anyway.

[Tatsujin]

very sexy indeed, but not so much handy anymore;-)

[ave]

5.1 upgrade :020:
And I rearranged everything as since I got the arcade cab, the more I felt like living in a warehouse^^. And not having all those beautiful limited boxes ready to look at in a "showcase" always freaked me out. It took one full day and lots of brainwork to organize what's supposed to be where, but this is the kind of work I'd like to do everyday :P



Small step for a man, giant leap for ave. Finally I can enjoy films in 5.1 and that for cheap off ebay. It's maybe not a highend set, but due to space issues I was limited to satellite speakers anyway.


Messing around with that Photostitch program ^^ And yes, it's a small room. In fact, you can't see much of the floor anymore.

PS2 & GC level

Famicom & Dreamcast level

Planet Saturn

And Dreamcast level again, w/PCBs & Game mags beneath

Sorry for the crappy last picture, but there's very little space between the shelf and the arcade cab.

+ another CD shelf with some DC/SS/PS1/PCE-games and some jpn. guidebooks (useless to me, but the Famicom ones are just sooo lovely :D)

[MoBoRoS]

Wooaah! Nice collection and room! i love it!
Btw where did you get this LOVELY cd display case! i want one too!

[Tatsujin]

you pce collection need to more feeded up :nod: ;)

[ave]

@moboros
Thx, the CD shelves were entirely bought at local German furniture retailers, sorry. But I foung similar ones on ebay.com, too... maybe you should just take a look in greek shops and the like, I'm sure some store will have a similar CD storing item.

@tatsujin
I'm currently working on my PS1-collection (which is still very, very humble) which will receive some very nice support within the next couple of days. After that maybe PCE is next. Gunhed, Dracula X, Star Parodier, Nexzr and Spriggan mk2 are on the top of my list! I also had Mizubaku Daibouken added as I find it awefully sweet and fun to play, but I want to go for the direct arcade port on the Saturn (first).

[graciano1337]

Such an amazing room! Very nice.

[Skaarg]

Now that is quite the cave. I'm really liking how nicely you have everything displayed.
