Sounds more like 10 years of wasted life to me ...

thanks for quoting a 365 line post then contriubuting your one-line smartass
remark. I don't recall asking for your opinion. For the record I have had a
VERY HAPPY LIFE (with more to come) playing games for a living.

Let me know when you are having your next garage sale so I can come over and see
how you've WASTED YOUR LIFE!

I guess you're spending all of your time judging others, sounds even more
wasteful to me.

Judging from that list, it looks like a pretty good way to spend 10
years actually...

Sinjin,

I would recommend trying to sell these things on eBay. I had a ton of games
as well, however yours is a much more comprehensive list than mine was. I
separated the 60 games I was selling into four different categories of games
and sold them as game packs and made over $250. Pretty good. Well kinda,
considering I probably invested over $1500 in those games, but who ever buys
games for their resale value anyhow?

Exactly - I've already had my enjoyment of the title. Anything I can get now is
just gravy. I estimated just under $13,000 retail value for the titles I am
selling (when they were new of course) If I get what I want I hope to get
around $2,000 for the entire collection.

I was thinking about ebay but I hate the hassle and expense of running hundreds
of little auctions. I like the game pack idea and I did that when I sold off
about 30 PSX titles last year. Worked great but just a lot of work.

I've ordered some games. and to me it looks like you've had a lot of
fun in the last 10 years. And if I'm right, you've helped a lot of
people....haven't you done quite a few walkthroughs? I want to thank
you for that.

In your opening paragraph you list as a reason for the sale ... " I have
either finished them or they no longer work on my new hardware". Since I
consider you one of the few people capable of adjusting a system to play
with any game, please tell me what system you now have that refuses to play
games. And why would the games play on our systems. What is the technical
cutoff point for playability? Thanks.

Prolly he means some of the DOS games which are a bitch to get to run under
Win9X and impossible to run under Windows 2000.

I always find it funny that applications written for a Microsoft operating
system are better supported under Linux ;-)
