Game/console collectors thread

Just going to post it here, maybe there's some old toppies.

Anytime I see a Sierra game I upvote:

My childhood consisted with quite a few hours playing Space Quest, Kings Quest and Police quest.

Would keep me busy for hours, one that stood out was Space Quest 4.

Play for 4 hours, run up to my dad, told him every detail for said 4 hours that my 6 year old brain could remember.

My dad would get out the walkthrough which I could not read, ask me stuff like, "Did you pick up a credit card?"

Me: "Yes, but can't use it"

Dad : "Go put on women's clothes in the game and try again"

I would then disappear again for 4 hours.

Compare that to my sisters kids, play for 5 minutes, "I could not open the door, so I'm watching tikkak and utube"

You're just a bit younger than me. I also played all those games but i guess age 16-17.
We were a couple of "gamers" and at school discuss all the details and swop out "secrets".

Let me know:thumbsup:

Can't for the life of me find them. I moved house last December and they are not where I thought they were. I know we gave a lot of DVDs and that kind of thing away, so I hope tf they haven't gone to the charity shop. I'm missing an old iPad, MB Air and some other bits and pieces.

I shall keep looking but they are not in the loft as far as I can see :mad:
 
So just to do a quick update.

Gameboy player and Gameboy player disc is in SA:

Got Super Monkey ball 2 to test the Gamecube and also no problems.
