Just saying hi!
Hey guys!
Just another Canadian collector here from the west coast!
I used to collect games a long time ago (just after highschool, and I'm 30 now, so 12ish years ago) and am now getting back into it.
I'm sure my story is the same as most of yours:
I was a kid, I played all (Read: most) of the RPG's, and I kept all of my things in flawless condition.
Then, out of no where, Final Fantasy 7 and Playstation 1.
In an effort to play FF7, I sold my entire collection of games keeping only my Nes console, and Dragon Warrior 1 (I assume I couldn't find DW that day)
I sold my SNES ff2 ff3 som soe EB BoF BoF2 Brainlord, honestly nearly all of the RPG's on snes and some of the good platformers easy 25+ games all CIB all in very good or better condition
Thankfully, I hunted down most of those games years back!
So I happened to get a earthbound, EVO, Ogre Battle, and such before the prices spiked up to near foolishly stupid levels.
Anyway!
Hello!
Hope to speak to you soon!

Hahahah!
I love Surrey and the area I'm in, admitedly there are some sketchy parts of Surrey.
That said everyone knows Vancouver, so it's the easiest thing to say.
I always try to point out that I live in Surrey to the people from the area though
Another BC collector!
I'm happy to see that, one of my reasons for joining that site is that I kinda collect alone.
I have friends that like the games, and even a few that pick up a game or two but non that "collect" if that makes sense.

Hey Wren, I recognized your screen name. You're from Sega 16 right?
No, Sorry!
For a very long time (since the launch day of SotN) I went under the name alucarD or nGnalucarD recently within the last year I made the decision to change my handle and picked Wren from Phantasy Star as another of my all time favorite characters.
When the name Wren is unavilable, I use Wrencast.
So nope, not me!
But I bet I'm just as cool
