Great to find such a forum, my names Tom, 25 from Derbyshire.
I'm not soley a SMS collector (I collect for most consoles) but have a stack of SMS items and love the console and box art for the games.
The Sega Master System Plus was my first games console (If you don't count the ZX Spectrum +2) and it was ace playing Golden Axe and the like at home.
I've been visiting the forums a bit recently and thought it was time to say hi.

Yup, welcome to the forum! So what's your collection currently like? You got a collecting aim in mind? What other consoles do you collect for?

Yup, welcome to the forum! So what's your collection currently like? You got a collecting aim in mind? What other consoles do you collect for? Thanks for the welcome guys! I have bits and bobs of everything a couple of examples are Sharp X68000, Neo Geo AES/MVS, JAMMA, Dreamcast, MD, SMS, Saturn, NES, SNES, Amiga and the list goes on. I'm interested in Demo Units like the Sega Demo Unit (Don't own one but want one) and M82 (Got one of these) I have no real collection goal in mind (Just buy games I might like and consoles I like the look of. I not really into complete collections however I may go for a complete SMS collection (Possibly) I have all the UK accessories (except the Handle Controller)

I have the Smurfs but I wouldn't mind owning Back To The Future 2 and 3 I bet they play rubbish but the box art is kinda nice.

AES & JAMMA?? Are you rich or something??? I'd love to collect for them but they're just so damn expensive! I could probably stretch to the MVS, but I have too many collections going right now to take on another one yet. Maybe one day. Oh, and stay away from BTTF2, it's one of the worst games ever. BTTF3 isn't too bad, I like it anyway, just too short.

The AES doesn't have to be that expensive, i've got 13 games for mine, only one cost more than £20

I have a Sigma Raijin Supergun and only about 10 PCB's (not all Jamma) a few Mobo's CPS2 and Hyper64 so nothing that special.
Neo Geo side I have a modded JPN Geo pretty common, a Majoung Stick and about 20 games All new ranging from common games like Robo Army to more expensive ones like Double Dragon.
I don't buy games weekly/daily like for sms or smg but just now and again.
Maybe a complete AES collection would be nice one day ;D but no rush - And has for Jamma - Thats just holding me out till I get space for the real deal..

Lol, are you going for a full blown arcade? ;D That would be nice when I eventually buy a new house and get out of my tiny flat! Yeah, funny you say that about the AES Playgen, I've noticed that it doesn't seem to be quite as expensive as it used to be. PC Engine on the other hand seems to have caught up and maybe even surpassed Neo Geo in terms of expense! I think I got into that and got most of the games I wanted at the right time!

Well probably about 10 cabinets or something like that - I'm going to convert my garage into a games room (Don't park my car in there) so should easily be enough space for 10 cabinets and all my collection. Just a pipedream at the moment though
