Very impressive collection indeed Rupert. And all in a year. Hardcore.
So what happened a year ago to make you become a SMS fiend?!

my dad found my sms in his attick and was gona sell it/ or chuck it. I got it off him and played all my old games and got lost in a world of nostalgia (im yet to resurface!). It brought back so many memorys having to wait 6 months to get a game for xmas or birthday as they were so exspensive. I got looking on ebay and found i could get all the games i used to want for about £2, then discovered gamstation aswell.........

I was only joking about Spinball! Also Im with you the reason I started collecting was to get my old games, but then when I saw just how cheap it was I went a little crazy!

I will have to get round to doing some pics too, just so much hassle getting everything together to make a decent photo though!! Then putting it all back again properly will take about a day! It's almost like a big jigsaw trying to figure out where everything went before I took it out!!

even though mines neat and accessable its a headache when i get 1 or 2 new games through, especially if they start with A or B, got to shift about 400 games so there all alaphaticalised. my girlfriend hates the words 'ive just got to intergrate these new games into the collection' LOL

If its your web browser being silly, try right clicking on the pictures and saving them to your computer, and then load them up in a different program

Alphabetical? Meh, real pernickity-retentives file their games by part number

The true hardcore people get two lots of everything, and put one set in alphabetical order, and keep the other set seperate in part number order

you guys only have 2 copies of each game?
I have a set in alphabetical order, a set in part number order, a set in release date order and a set in rarity order.
I thought that was what we all did?

No, i also have a set which was sent to the AFA (www.toygrader.com)
They grade each game for condition and then seal them in a nice UV protected acrylic case
