well, I second that
Yes it's a PAL version, making it a lot less rare.. but still one of the harder to find PAL games. And due to it's infamous status it's also the most expensive PAL NES games, going for 1500-2000 euro nowadays (which doesn't reflect it's true rarity, which would make it a 500 euro game)
they are offcourse in there! Somewhere on the display shelves with all the Zelda stuff
Truly amazing.

I'd show you my gaming setups, but they're organized in a way that all you'd see is the 50" plasma. All collections and consoles are hidden inside closets and generally stay hat way even while playing (thank you wireless controllers).
Sometimes I do hear a loud lament coming from the closet where the ps3 is and I have to stop playing and open the closet to let it breath, or see the smoke coming out of it, but so far it hasn't melted. My gaming sessions have become very short anyway.

...So we're still on for the sleepovers next Friday and Saturday, right??

Amazing collection. It's pretty much my childhood in a glass cabinet. What I love about this collection above the others I have seen is that the approach is more editorial than completitionist. It has the interesting stuff, all the games made me nod, 'yep, remember that'. Each game is a bit iconic or special in some way - like Chevaliers du Zodiaque, a really rare french curiosity, or Hagane, a superb and rare late Super NES sidescroller.
If I might suggest some additions that are quite rare
- Road Fighter (NES) - released very late to the NES life cycle as a boxed PAL game by Konami despite being out for half a decade in Japan, using the smallest memory chip and being ridiculously simplistic, Urban Champion grade. A complete scam in 1991.
- Super Parodius and Pop'n'Twin Bee (Super NES) - amazing games and rare instances of such quality products being translated to English but never making it to the USA.
- Kirby's Dream Course (Super NES) - a truly one of it's kind game, unlike any other Kirby, released late to the Super NES cycle so fairly rare.
Well I'm a fan of a clean minimalistic setup so I would like to see it. I always try to make my space clean and "simple" so post away! And if you want/can show your Collections too don't be shy. Thanks in advance.

Moved into my first ever flat, it's very small but after living in shared accommodation for most my life it's a breath of fresh air, having my own shower is like A M A Z I N G!
I'll try and edit in the lounge set-up although it's very dark in there and not very camera friendly.

I love this setup. What kind of work do you do on all of those monitors, video editing? Audio?
sure, you can pick one game to play all day.. and you only get 2 min to select
Road Fighter is somewhere in that big NES cabinet
never played it but it's indeed quite an uncommon NES gamesSuper Parodius isn't out on the SNES, or atleast not under that name. I think you mean Parodius, and i'm indeed still looking for that one (do have the Saturn /PS1 / NES versions). Same goes for Pop 'n Twinbee, never found a complete copy so far
Kirby's Dream Course is in there, you'll see it when you watch the SNES video

You are right, Parodius:
and just to up the challenge, I just found out there is not one, but TWO Pop'n'Twinbees out in the PAL region the sequel must be ultra rare given how rare the original is
Original:
Sequel:
To make your life even harder, there are TWO versions of the original Pop'n'Twinbee on PAL - the original Konami branded UKV version most of us know, and the elusive solely PALCOM branded FAH version I suspect is near impossible to find.

I´m loving the multiple CRT setup, I hope someday I get the space for something similar.
Is that the CM Storm Sentinel? What do you think of it? How would you rate it compared to other mice you've used?
I've been eyeballing the Sentinel for awhile. My MX 518SE has been serving me just fine the last 4 years, and I like the simplicity (no software), but when it dies, I'm not sure if I'll stick with Logitech or try something new.

Yup, I'm gonna need to ask for a link to your wallpapers. They look awesome.

Thank you, and to answer your question 'Audio', but not in a 'professional' capacity.
I've PM'd you the links to the wallpapers.
I mainly do my console gaming sat in the racing rig upstairs, but PC gaming is done here.
Dell Studio XPS 13" screen (can run Minesweeper at 720p30 - seriously, it's like being there) and Dell Inspiron 9300 with a 17" screen for when I want the full Imax experience. Both have stereo sound.
My game collection (awaiting delivery of a wall-mounted rack to keep them organised)

dat Aeron... I sooo want that chair but it's too god damn expensive (around $2500 here in Croatia...fuck.)
Yeah, the aluminium ones are damn expensive. I had to do some serious talking to myself before splashing out. I've got a vanilla one as well for the office. Great chairs.
I like it! But I feel like a bigger TV should be there. Or some speakers on the side of it to make it look a little less bare.
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, thought about speakers, but my kids' rooms are pretty close by so didn't want to bombard them with noise...I usually use headphones while playing. The bigger TV is in our main living room.
Thinking about hanging a few other albums on the side of the TV, actually
wooo! just moved into a new place!! here's the new setup:
I actually needa turn the monitor towards the bed so I can play games while sitting on it
but other than that, my games are all nice and organized now!!
(in my last place, they were all over the floor lol)
edit:
prior setup at the old place: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=33951487&postcount=326

This must have been asked before, but why do you have no furniture?
I love you, JEKKI.
He just moved in lol
I'm not necessarily saying that you need more, it just is a rather uncommon sight. And thus my curiosity is piqued. If asked I would suggest shelves for the games and perhaps a bed frame for your mattress.
And I didn't see a desk or a chair, so I figured there was neither.
Compare to his last batch of pictures.

I love it.
My uncle has both, and Parodius Not sure if boxed or not though.
Both are awesome, top down shooter is better then the side scroller though.
He has a shit load of rare games he just doesn't know it, no point telling him though as he wouldn't sell anyway
uploaded pics of every single item in my collection:

Thx! It was a long process to pick the album covers, actually. Lots of discussions between the missus and me...

I have a custom Vika Amon desk system from Ikea, in an L-shaped config - Super cheap too, my set was just around 230ish$ including the drawer and you can pretty much customize everything!
Heres what mine looks like, as you can see it can comfortably hold the weight of 3monitors and a loaded computer case. For a DIY desk, its surprisingly sturdy:
