No Turbo Grafx 16? I am thinking about getting Monkey Island 4 for PS2, do you know if that port is worth getting?

Niiiice. Turbo love is always good, even though you don't have a TG16 :P

Yes i'm still missing a TG16 as so many of you have mentioned. It's next on my list along with the Sega Master System. I really have no interest in getting a Jaguar thou, as I only buy systems that have games i'm interested in playing.

@ BulkMailer:
Espace From Monkey Island is an excellent game. Sure its not the greatest game in the series, but there is no such thing as a bad Monkey Island game. I personally haven't played the console version, so I don't know if it differs from the PC version.

I'll post pictures of my games and portables next. Hopefully over the weekend.

Nice setup, dude. Impressive.

If you do a part 2 of your collection, please include close-ups of the figures and stuff in that display case.

@JAMONTHEONE:

The games are all on shelves(off picture) to the right.

@Char Aznable:

Will do, I guess you spotted the mecha and want a closer look at them.
