04 | January | 2012 | "DESTROY ALL FANBOYS!"

OK, OK, it’s way too small to be an actual “library”, but I’ll take care of that (again) in due time. Actually, I had about 30 titles here at one point, but I sold/traded most of them off thinking I’d pick them up again at some point. The system is pretty easy to collect for with a few exceptions like the Mario and Zelda games Nintendo really doesn’t wish existed. I like that the system plays VCD’s (remember when THAT was supposed to be a great format back in the day?), so it does double duty on occasion when I want to see how bad things might have become if we were all relegated to swapping to Disc Two after 74 minutes passed. It’s a good thing there were no epics released for the format (as far as I know). Getting up to change to a fourth or fifth disc would give some of the lazier folks around these days a hear attack as they reached for the remote, a bag of chips and their laptops or phones to tap out a complaint…

Here’s the rest of the PS1 collection to go with the PS1 RPG/SRPG library I posted a few weeks back. What’s here is about 100-150 games less than it was about two years back, so anything you don’t see was most likely played to death and sold or traded. I absolutely never wanted a complete PS1 collection anyway, as I’d have a ton of games here that I’d never play. Still, I wish I’d kept more of the racers and all of the shmups I sold off, but oh well. That last photo is stuff I dug up after I took the others and put everything away. Oops. I was wondering where my import copy of D no Shokotaku ended up all this time. The items on the bottom row of the pic are a few of the small selection game soundtracks I have: Soukaigi, Silent Hill, Threads of Fate and Biohazard Remix. I don’t have anything resembling a decent game soundtrack collection at all – I just stuck those in because they’re PS-related…
