Well, I found it pretty common for Destructoid Community to share their gaming setup among others. Today I have decided to share mine. Because this is only part 1, it will only focus on my room. Part 2 will be based on the basement which won't be posted till summer.



As you can see, this is my room, its really small. It usually have 6 systems hook up to it, but now I only got 4 systems hook up. The TV is kind of crappy, but I am not willing to buy a new TV unless Canon release their so-called SED TV) Inside the cabinet is where I keep all my games, although it looks small it does manage to store a decent amount of games inside, which manage to complie a collection for several series that I been trying to collect.



The game that's running right now is Oboro Muramasa Using a SFC controller.
(Was thinking of selling my wii for a Japanese X360 but Muramasa stop me from doing that).


I have a small cabinet to store my games , in my room. Since I am out of space I have move some of the games to different rooms.


THE CABINET (The top is kind of Crop off)




And some of my video game collection. ( I prefer collecting games in Japanese. I actually finish about 85% of the game I own, unlike a collector who has awesome games he never plays and is a bastard . . . *cough* FUNKTASTIC *cough*). There's more games, but I am just going to post games have a series.

First I got the Lunar Series (Includes : Lunar: Silver Star (SCD), Lunar: Eternal Blue (SCD), Lunar :Silver Star Story (SS), Lunar Silver Star Story Complete, Lunar Eternal Blue (SS) and Lunar Magic School (SS) ** I love Working Designs work on Lunar, but their copies are usually pretty expensive.



Then here I got Sega's Nights (Includes : Saturn Version (JP & US) , Christmas Nights , PS2 Limited Edition and the Sequel on Wii * Which was a total disappointment)



Next I have the Tales of series, I got most of them on console , I brought my first Tales of game in 2002 which is Tales of Phantasia for PSX. Still one of my favourite games. ( I probably get rid of the Vesperia once the ps3 version is out)



Then here I got the Square Enix collection. Well just posting the square stuff first.



Then the Enix stuff. *Very small, I will buy more stuff later on.




Persona Collection. (Hmm, You know back when Funktastic won the T-Shirt contest ,
I was a little choked. He was only editing.... Anyways I do not carry the original Persona because I hate the localization. I'll get the PSP version when that's available.



And a statue of Aegis just for P3 fans.



Legend of Heroes Collection, Any of you have played Legend of Heroes on PSP? You probably think its a terrible game, but anyone would think so with the god awful translation from Bandai (And also gameplay engine has been changed). But here I present you the PC version.From 1 to 6
** LOH 4 = LOH 1 In US
LOH 3 = LOH 2 In US
LOH 5 = LOH 3 In US



LOH 6 SC & The 3rd probably has one of the sweetest boss theme you probably never heard of.




My Ys collection. I like Ys quite a bit, but not enough to pick up the early computer and 8 bit versions. Though I do felt offended by 1up.com for calling this series one of the most boring video games series (I was thinking of removing my P4 guide cause of that, but that just being immature). Anyways what I got here is the PC version and the PCE versions plus the soundtracks.





Heroine Anthem Collection, Somehow I lost the Box for the first game.



But it is a sweet chinese RPG for PC, Check out this youtube video to see what you're missing.

(The Sprites are about detailed as guility gear & the game is old as 2003)


and gameplay video againist a boss. " Againist Barkley"



No place for Hideo??? *Hideo Kojima Collection


Sakura Wars Collection (I don't want to buy any of the spinoffs, just 1 to 5)

Grandia collection ( This should be all the main titles)




Mushihimesama Collection , Cave Shump game. Everything you see here will cost more then $2000 all together.



Umihara Kawase Collection, This is probably the greatest platform game ever created besides Mario. But the game is quite expensive, but I assure you that its worth it. *Check on ebay and you'll know. (** Do not get the PSP version at all Cost, that game is filled with bugs and a screwed up physic engine *A CRAP PORT) (And I did lend the game to Funktastic once, but he hates the game cause he couldn't pass level 8 and quote " I hate this f****** fish game!!!!)



Phoenix Wright, or Ace Attorney if you prefer that.
(I buy the japanese version because it comes with both english and japanese setting, so I can enjoy the game in 2 different languages. ^_^;)


Other Namco RPG that aren't tales.



Langrisser I-5 , Have you ever heard of the game "Warsong" for the Sega Genesis? Warsong is actually the original Langrisser.

(I just like the Saturn versions. **I do not want Langrisser Millenium in anyway) (Langrisser 3 probably have the best character design of the series, too bad the game was crap , its a shame really.)




My Puyo Puyo collection, one of my favourite puzzle series. I am not a fan of their newer series from Sega (Fever). I also tried to do some minor translation for Puyo Puyo Sun on Windows.



Then not really part of the collection, just my latest purchase for the Shmup genre, with preorder items.There's the preorder bonus for Trigger Heart Exelica *Flying Exelica



Finally this is completely out of topic. But the greatest GBA RPG , you must be play this at all cost, rather illegally or legally. "MOTHER 3, or aka Earthbound 2



Yeah I even stay up 5 in the morning trying to convince a friend to play it (Like some preacher). (Funktastic too, but it has to be legal and english).

THat is a freaking AWESOME collection!!! I have to admit that I'm extremely jealous!
Good God, theres some amazing in there.
/jealous
You must have Xenogears, yeah?

Awesome haul.

Also, anime.
Awesome haul.

Also, anime.
Ahh, i can see it in the corner there, nevermind.
Wow, that's a lot of expensive shit!
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't impressed with what I saw in this collection. Also, I keep hearing talk about how the latest Persona games are pretty good, but I only played the first Persona and I never thought that game was too great. Maybe I'll end up giving 2-4 a try when I get time.

Also, I never knew Square did Parasite Eve until just now. Well, my mind has been blown.
Nice btw i see you have death smiles i was given a copy a few weeks ago but my NTSC xbox is dead! is it any good? i dont want fix it and find out its shit
OMFG!

First things first, is there an English patch for Heroin Anthem?

Best collection I have seen on this site hands down.

Also, marry me...
There was 1 person making a patch, but he gave up working on it. So no patch exist... Sorry.
Holy crap that's like.... the best thing I've seen all week/month/year
*scrolls down*
*scrolls down*

pretty impressive, not a fan of rpg tough

*scrolls down*
*scrolls down*

*scrolls dow...

OMFG MGS I CAME
Wait.. Part 1? How much stuff do you have?! O_O!!

I'm envious of your collection...
Hold on, I only live one province over. I'll be over to loot your house in about a day.
Your collection makes me ashamed to be a gamer. I wish I had your collection, sweet jesus... I need to go fap now
Impressive... yeah not bad... nice JRPG collections, oh Grandia yeah... wow every Tales game... let me go through the pics one more time... Kojima section, yeah yeah Metal Gear, ZOE... holy shit... POLICENAUTS!? lucky bastard.
I think I'm the only one who was most impressed with the shmup stuff, but everything here is pretty darn neat. :)
Eff off ZOEL you jackass! =P Way to NOT wait for my DOMO-KUN to make an appearance in your post, lol. ZOEL IS FULL OF LIES . . . <_< . . . >_> . . .
At first I was all "meh," but then you opened the cabinet and started showing off the games and now I'm stuck between raging jealousy and wanting to be your new BFF cuz you rock so much.

Damn you! (call me)
Oh. My. God. I am SO jealous right now!!! Look at all that Persona shit!!! When I come over to Funktastic's place, can we hang out?
Sure can do. There's all kind of neat junk in here.
That is beautiful.
very sexy collection,

love the gundam bust :P
i'm so jealous.
Wow, epic collection is epic.

I wish I knew moonspeak. So many other games I could play. (Took one semester in college, then scheduling conflicts prevented me from taking more)
...
...
no words
can explain, how jealous I am.
You are my new hero.
Enjoy!
I like the things that you have.
Sweet collection, it's awesome to see someone else who also loves puyo pop
you can't see it right now but I'm drooling on my keyboard ... fucking sweet collection O_o Policenauts , Snatcher , Umihara Kawase!!!!!! and Shumps >_>
damn! that is one impressive collection!
I havent been so blown away by anything in a long time. Simply amazing.

Come on over to Japanator, we welcome you as well.
Wow, incredible collection, man.
Horree Shit...

3 copies of FFVII really necessary?
nice collection. Ima gon' buy you some shelves though :P
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!wwowowowoowowoww I AM SO JEALOUS!!!!!
I hate the idea of playing in the sun. Sorry I can't see anything out there especially with a GBA.
Just read over your post again. I literally have no words for how jealous I am. How long have you been collecting?
About 3 to 4 years. Couldn't really afford much games when I was 16. So I started at 17.
Hahaha! GARISON, I roll with some mad collectors! =P There's ZOEL the Jap expert, me, POSSUMWRANGLER who has MORE games than me, who shall be posting his collection this summer, and then Mr. Persona movie maker SYLPHX! Come to Calgary, see some awesome stuff, lol.
Well played sir... Oh my fucking god well played... I don't even want to know whats in your basement, at this rate I'm gonna assume you have an entire arcade down there.
You have some awesome shit.

Also, As long as Final Fantasy 6 Advance exists, Mother 3 will never be the best GBA RPG, sorry :p
I am officially uber-jealous of your game collection.
Holy crap, that's a wonderful collection. O_O
Holy moly, that is an impressive collection, interested in part 2 now :)

Heroine Anthem looks amazing!!!
Whoa, that is a LOT of pointy, multi-colored hair!

Sweet Gundam stuff! I can spot a Sazabi and Dendrobium Orchis, but what else is up there? And what is that bust - V2 Gundam?


Its actually a 1/24 scale Hi Nu Gundam Head.
Really impressive stuff - I wish that even half of it had been released in NA.
Fuck to the yes, nice collection.
Impressive, but I bet you haven't even played all those games. I on the other hand have beaten them all.
