So to start off, I'm kind of an odd gamer. Most of my friends back in he day were SNES gamers, while I played the Genesis. Many of my friends were knee deep in Playstation games while I played Neo Geo and Saturn. Playstation 2? Nah, Dreamcast.
But my point isn't to say that I liked to be contrarian, just the kind of games that I liked to go after. I still tend to like retro games, and have been trying to finish getting a few games that I wanted back when I had time and no money, and now I have money and no time. And this is where I am having a dilemma:
HOLY CRAP retro games are EXPENSIVE.
I mean STUPID expensive. Lemme give a couple examples.
I'm trying to go after a Genesis game called Crusader of Centy.
Take a look at these:
Mortgage Payment #1
Mortgage Payment #2
Think those are crazy? There was a game that I owned called Pulstar for the Neo Geo. I sold it back in the day, and now I kinda want to get it back. I knew that this was going to be a lot. But I didn't know that it was going to be THIS much.

And we won't even get started on Arcade cabinets...

I don't know how y'all can start collecting these older games if you didn't start way back in the late 90s - early 00s. That's just insane money...
