Hi Joe

Is that ontop of the speaker a Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) One, with the orginal Mega CD and 32X ontop? I could be way off here, just looks like it?

Paul, you are correct! All original and working. Now guess what the item is in front of that same speaker. For big points guess what that thing is sitting on the little table on the right, and what that thing is right below the window (that's a toughie since it has an object sitting on top of it that does not go with that unit).

Monte, Sound Forge? MIDI? The same sentence? WTF?

Now that is a Sega Saturn with the memory expansion card in the slot, can't remember what Sega called it exactly. I love my Saturn, shame it did not do well. I was so excited when it came out and being able to play Daytona USA. I like Nights into Dreams alot as well. Don't play video games much anymore so my consoles spend most of their time packed away. I also have a Master System I and II, Mega Drive I, Saturn and Dreamcast. Always been a big Sega fan.

Now I am taking a very big guess but that thing on the right- is it Panasonics video game system from like 1994?? I remember seing stuff about them in video game magazines at the time.

Under the window- Sega Master System One? I loved Spy HQ on MS, that overhead motor bike game, and you had to drive into the Sega truck and you got better things.

Will have to take a pic of my Macs to post.

You win on the Sega Master System and Saturn guesses. The thing on the right you lose on, however. I used to have a 3DO (bought it back when I was a complete moron). But what that is is actually an NEC TurboGrafx-16 CD-ROM with 16MB memory expansion. It was called PC Engine everywhere else.

....now don't laugh boy's and girl's, it may not be as fancy as Joe's set-up, but it's very easy & fast to set up, and I can use this little rig just about anywhere, and it is even wi-fi internet ready,why just this morning at Starbucks(the one on Vasco Road), I was surfing away(on this forum of course) and I spilled my White chocolate mocha (venti) all over my keyboard, no problemo', the nice Starbucks girl loaned me a rag and with one swipe of the table, presto-cleano, I was back in business.

...yes Joe, I am left handed, and the crumbs from the Starbucks(excellent) coffee cake are no problem either.

Joe, I was going to guess you had a Turbo-duo over there, but it sounds like I was very close to the mark. I happen to have my own mint-copy of Rondo of Blood, Sapphire, the Y's games, etc. for the Duo myself.

BTW, I can make out the Genesis power base converter up on the shelf unless I'm mistaken. Also see a lot of master system games there with some Genesis boxes.

Yes, that is a power base converter on top of the SMS. I love the Master System/Genesis boxes. Coolest boxes in the world. I hated the transition to cardboard.

I almost hate to ask, but how did you acquire Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire and how much $$$ left your estate for it?

Well I took advantage of a person's "addiction" to get him to sell it to me some years back. He didn't know how much it was worth exactly, except he knew it was rare. I think I paid a hundred bucks for it. The game itself is quite forgettable, but has amazing graphics for when it came out.

My real prize is Rondo of Blood (NOT the SNES "Dracula X"). One of my all-time favorite older games.

Best traditional-style Castlevania game. I paid $69 brand new right when Dracula X came out! Now it's going for hundreds, isn't it? I will give you $125 for your Sapphire. I promise not to sell it. You hate it and need to get rid of it.

Excellent reviews of some real classics. Glad to see you liked the music in Mega Man II as much as I did. Quite simply the best music on the NES ever.

That's great to hear about Y's VI on the PS2. I had given up hope of ever seeing another US release of the series.

BTW I have an MP3 I converted from an old audio tape I made of my brother playing Mega Man 1 back in July of 1989, right before part 2 was released. I was only 15 at the time, so I sound like a retarded teen, but the sheer violent behavior of my brother attempting to complete the game is classic. He didn't know I was taping him, so every cuss and every slammed controller is pure candid bliss. You can here the sounds of the game in the background, which adds to the nostalgia factor of ripping your hair out back in the 8-bit gaming era. If you're interested in giving a listen, I can upload it. The track is 20 minutes long, which is a condensed edit of about 2 hours. Let me know and I'll upload it to my site.

Sure go ahead. You can e-mail or PM me (if you can figure that out. We made it tricky because we are evil). Also, don't forget to send me your copy of Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire. Thanks.

I can burn you a copy of it if you want, but I keep the original. Sorry, I'm picky that way ;-)

As for the mp3, I've released it to the net-public before, so I don't mind posting a public link to it now:

Mega Man 1989

Keep in mind the first two minutes or so is recovered footage that is missing most of my voice, so it will sound like my brother is bitching to himself (but is actually yelling at me). The remaining 18 minutes has my comments intact.

BTW, pay special close attention to the part starting at 5.27 in. There's an extra surprise in there not expected by myself and certainly not by my brother ;-)
