About Me

What's it like to be me? Imagine a thousand people throwing a party inside of your head and you're stuck outside without a ticket.

I've been an avid fan/player of video games since I was a child. The first game system that I remember playing was the Atari 2600. I enjoy everything from RPG's, shooters, fighting games. sports games and even the occasional racing sim.

I'm what you would call a "collector" and every now and then I will share my gaming hauls for all of Destructoid to see.

As of this update (8.11.2011) I currently have:

28 Consoles
31 Handhelds
1138 physical copies of various games
145 digital copies of games
Tons of other video game related items




My kid, lavishing in all of her Mario goodness.


I drew that when I was bored.

This post won't be long; I'll let the picture speak for itself.



This beautiful piece of art was at the Lego store inside the Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, IL (just outside of Chicago).

I asked the guy working the store if it was for sale, of course it was not. He told me that the case it was in changes monthly. I asked what happens to it once the month is over, his response "Oh, we destroy it to put something else in".

I almost cried...

Both pieces (Samus in suit and out) stood just a tad over 24 inches each (2 foot for the measuremently challenged).

Also, sorry for the poor pic quality, I tried with the flash on but since they are behind glass the glare was too much.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Wow! That suit one is great, but the zero suit one looks a little bulky and has a face like a protoss.

Still a million times better then what I could make however.

You should ask him if he can give you directions to make one or something

I disagree, I wouldn't have sex with that thing. That Zero Suit Samus looks manly and I'm scared she'd be the one penetrating me.

The rest of it is amazing, though.

It's a travesty that they're destroying that.

I love Woodfield Mall; that's sweet to see that display there. I used to live in Elk Grove Village next to Schaumburg.

I nearly cried when Gamer's Paradise closed down.

Zero Suit Samus looks like she has a boxy chest. Women Legos do not make.

The Zero Suit Samus looks like a dude, but the other one is fucking incredible! See if you can get them to give you a parts list and reconstruct it from additional photographs!

I have changed my mind. You need to STEAL this. Then you can reverse engineer it and tell us all how it is done.
