Retro gaming
Just wondering if anyone on here is into retro gaming, i'm talking about NES, Master system, Megadrive, SNES etc?
I've decided i'm going to start collecting the old consoles and games, just picked up a megadrive 2 boxed with Street Fighter 2 Championship edition and Sonic 2 for £20. Anyone else collecting or know of any good forums?

That would definately be worth a watch if you want an N64 with golden eye, no bids at the moment

as said on the other threads i've got most of the main consoles that have come out since 91 now, its great going round car boots looking for bargains that people don't realise about. i got a boxed master system and nes for a tenner a few months back and got 10 sega saturn games for a fiver the other day, i could cash them in a make quite a bit but enjoy keeping them. my best find has to be a dreamcast i bought unboxed but with 20 games and 4 controllers for £6, then discovered it had the elusive sonic adventure 2 collectors edition in there, worth about £80 on its own.

i still have most of my old consoles, but I would love my old vectrex 
I've looked at a few but there is always a fault or two
on the upside our lass got me this for my birthday last week
It has most of the games I remember playing as a child, Space Invaders, Scramble, 1942, Galaxian, Gyruss, Donkey Kong etc.
I've not touched the xbox or the PS3 since getting it

I didn't realise people still bought those old consoles?? I have an old Megadrive, Snes and N64 all with the hardware addons that play all the games and all the games on floppy for each of those consoles. I may have a try and sell them on ebay
