Long time lurker, hello everyone
Hi NA,
I've lurked for a long time now, occassionally selling or buying items, and starting a couple threads. I'm currently a junior in high school, I am heavily invested in music and I'm planning on going to a conservatory to study Violin Performance. I also play piano and get my income for collecting mostly from accompayning local choirs, playing in pit orchestras for musicals professionally, and subbing for church organists. In pretty much all of my free time (which isn't exceedingly much time haha), I collect or play games.
I currently own an NES, Genesis, SNES, N64, Wii, Ps3, and Ps4. I used to have a 2600 and Odyssey 2, but in the last couple years my habits have changed from shelf collecting to mostly plahing and legitemetely enjoying games. As a result of this, I have sold most of my common games for NES/SNES and bought everdrives, which I adore. I plan on buying everdrives for Genesis and N64 in the future.
I've found that it's much more enjoyable to play games with a flash cart, than hold a large collection and worry about cleaning the games, storing them, finding them, making sure they work.... so I have gotten so much more out of my gaming hobby now that I don't shelf collect.
My favorite franchise is by far Metal Gear Solid. I've played and beaten every game way too many times, and I own way too many different ports/versions/editions of each game. I can't wait for Death Stranding, I already preordered it on amazon.
I'm glad to be here and will try to post more!
