I should mention that most of these came from Goodwill Finds or the local flea market--both excellent places to find old systems.

@rabbit_fighter Missing DMG, GBP, GBA SP and the Virtual Boy. I guess the journey is not over yet... 😉

@julianwki his argument for completeness is that he can now play every game without emulation (except virtual boy but he believes that was an experiment that doesn't count as part of the canon). In case you haven't figured it out, he is very opinionated on this subject :)

@rabbit_fighter @julianwki Not that it will change his opinion, but I saw a Virtual Boy box at a toy store when I was a kid... once... in a hard to get to place. But that is proof that it made its way all the way to my corner of the world when it came out.

@BernieDoesIt @julianwki I will present this to him then stand back while he fires off a barrage of logical counterarguments :)

@rabbit_fighter It's too bad I can't bottle up my memory of being utterly astonished at seeing the original Legend of Zelda and send it to him. I think he'd appreciate that gift.

@rabbit_fighter What is the pink DS and the black rectangular one?

@jellycrystals That's just a regular DS with A custom shell. The black rectangle is a WiiU.

@rabbit_fighter Ahh. I have a black Wii and didn't even connect that. I am still chasing an OG Famicom. I also collect consoles.
