obviously the sms is the king of all consoles, but i was wondering what other systems you guys collect for? and do you play the modern systems too?.

Pretty much anything Sega really - since SMS stuff I want/need is fairly thin on the ground these days, the MegaDrive is the main focus of my collecting now - I'm chasing a complete PAL library there and have around 350 (of 530ish). Been picking up a fair few boxed GameGear games recently too (as you already know, playgen ) - got about 50 now I think. SG1000, Mark III, MCD, 32X, Saturn, DC & Pico stuff is all fair game too, though for most of those it's just a case of grabbing good deals when I see them rather than actively tracking them down. I've got a bunch of other non-Sega systems too, but don't actively collect for any - a lot of the decent stuff I find just gets liquidated & turned into more Sega games via eBay The Dreamcast is the most recent system I've got, though I did own & later sell an XBox too. My flatmate's got an XBox and a Cube, so I do get the occasional burst of modern gaming...

SMS is the only system I would say I "collect" for, this doesn't mean I don't buy or play games for other systems though. I have about 70 PS1 games, 50 Ps2 games, 60 Sega Saturn games, 70 dreamcast games & 100ish Megadrive games oh and about 10 gamecube games and the usual other suspects like jaguar, c64 with a handful of games for each. I'm trying not to buy anymore for other systems though as I don't seem to have time to play them. Another big love for me is my PC, I spend a fortune on it getting all the latest hardware, and have about 300ish games for it.

I collect for mostly Sega systems. I collect a lot of Genesis, Saturn and Dreamcast games.
Right now I am collecting for Genesis and Saturn, and I'm getting some good deals. Dreamcast collecting has taken a back seat because it's pretty expensive, and the supply is more scarce than Genesis and Saturn stock. Because I am busy with college I haven't had a lot of time or money, but it's coming along nicely. As for condition, I don't really care for Genesis or 32X games, but for Saturn and Dreamcast I want complete.
In 2009 I should be done with collecting... I might buy a lot this summer, we'll see.

SMS only for me. But I might knock that on the head soon anyway.

I suppose i better answer my question too, I collect for pretty much every console -
Amiga, Atari 800, Atari 2600, C64, Dreamcast, DS, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, Gamecube, Gamegear, Game.com, GX4000, Jaguar, Lynx, Master System, Megadrive, MSX, N64, Nes, NeoGeo AES, NeoGeo Pocket, PC-engine, PC-FX, Playstation, Playstation 2, Pokemon Mini, Saturn, Snes, Virtualboy, Wonderswan, Xbox
But i have been completely obsessed with getting sms games in the last six months, and have bought about 200 games in that time!. I have nearly got everything sms wise now. I dont think il try and get a complete set of games for any other console, as it just gets too expensive, and im running out of spare room now.

I only "collect" for DC and Xbox now. Basically, if a game I want is under $20 for either system, I pick it up. Shenmue IIx for $15 - possibly the best deal ever?

Heres all the consoles I have (I think):
Atari 7800, Atari Jaguar, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube, Master System, Megadrive, Mega CD II, Saturn, Dreamcast, PSone, PS2, Tiger Game.com, GameKing, Commodore 64, Amstrad GX4000, Nintendo DS, Neo Geo Pocket Color, ZX Spectrum +
I only actively collect for the Sega Master System at the moment (so close to a complete Euro collection now) but I would like a complete Neo Geo Pocket, Game.com and maybe Atari Jaguar collection someday. All the other consoles I just get games that I like to play on them. I still play my current gen machines (Gamecube more than anything else). Nothing has really interested me at the moment though. All I looked forward to last year was Resident Evil 4 and the DS.

You can buy mine, it is faeces! I wish the GF would have waited and got me the new Nintendo. She could have fixed my bike for me for the price she paid for the damn thing!
