Was that the dude that kept on posting his stuff on Ebay?
Never mind, started to read the damn thing...

DDan needs to just take his collection and open up a retro museum-arcade bar in Chi town.

I guess technically, the writer wasn't wrong.

Hopefully their combined daisakusen account gets updated to reflect zero games owned.

NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

Guess that means even less of a chance of a PC Cocoron dump ever seeing the light of day.

Also:
"PC Engine Hucard/CD/SCD/ACD & Supergrafx 100% Factory Sealed collection"

Holy shiat, really? I didn't realize anyone had a complete non-sealed set, let alone a sealed set.

Thanks to the museum, one man’s private hoard is now a publicly accessible resource.

and have become even less playable #-o

The Strong isn’t just putting these games on a shelf to collect dust. While I was at the museum, they showed me some of the preservation activities they work on each day. Assistants in the lab spend hours capturing video footage directly from each game running on a genuine system, to have an alternate means of preserving the game content. And each game is entered into a searchable online database, so you can confirm that the Strong does indeed have a copy of Wonder Dog.

what a big load of crapshit?! #-o
