Ricky's Hall of Game... er- Living Room of Game
 
Welcome to my Galleria of game systems. These are the rules:

1. I'm not selling them.
2. Look, don't touch. Even if it IS just a collection of pixels on your monitor, DO NOT TOUCH.
3. Ignore the white space to the right of the pictures. I was to lazy to take those out. If it really irritates you, do the following steps:
3a. Take your right hand
3b. Lay it on top of the white space
3c. Take your other hand
3d. Smack your head 200 times
3e. Throw up
3f. Throw yourself off a 4 story condominium

Enjoy. =)

First off, we have the SEGA Game Gear. This is my very first video game console along with my first handheld console. I got it when I was about 4 when my dad and aunt took me and my cousin to a Wal-Mart/K-Mart/Whatever to pick out a handheld. My cousin chose a clear colored Game Boy Pocket, while I chose this. I mainly chose it because it had a pack in with Sonic 2. Today, it roams around my room in random places. I think it's still working, but I can never find enough batteries to find out. I might have chose the Game Boy if I knew how innovative Nintendo was, but I didn't even know WTF innovative meant.

Next up is my trustworthy Nintendo 64. I got it during Christmas of '98 (When I was 5) and is my first home console. I had decided to get it after numerous visits to the demo booth playing Super Mario 64. The bond we share is like brothers.

...Yes, I share bonds with my games. >> It currently lays in an open drawer, hooked up to the TV, waiting for me to play Smash Bros.

Nintendo's Game Boy Advance. They have sold like hot cakes in three different flavors (Regular, SP, Micro). I picked original flavor. I got it during my 9th birthday after my babysitter's kids got one. I got it along with Wario Land 4 (Which they also had.) Today, I play it once in a blue moon. It sits upon my desk currently.

(BTW:, that stuff on it is dry erase marker after trying to make it look like a SNES controller. Came out wrong as you can see. XP)

My Nintendo Gamecube. I got it during Christmas of '02 (Or was it '03?) simply because I then understood what Nintendo's focus was. I got it along with Metroid Prime and Super Mario Sunshine (Which wasn't as good as 64.) I still don't know what GCN means. If the N stands for Nintendo then why isn't it NGC? Anyway, I had like 30 something games for it. Want to know what happened to them? GONE. All of them but 2. (Smash Bros. [THANK GOD] and Spider-Man 2) Also, it has trouble reading the discs sometimes. I understand that NGC lost the console war, but at least it wasn't as bad as the Virtual Boy. =) It currently sits by my cruddy TV that has loose auxilury sockets

Unfortunatly, my Nintendo DS Phat couldn't make it because it suffered the same fate as my NGC discs.

Boo! This is the nastyness of the Lame Station Double. It doesn't deserved to be centered. I don't want to talk about it. It is currently tangled in unused cords in my drawer. WARNING: DO NOT PUT IT NEXT TO THE NGC

The Uber Spiffy Nintendo DS lite. I got it using my 14th birthday money after losing my DS Phat. First game after losing my old one was Pokemon Diamond. It currently is being played.

BEHOLD
I saved the best for last. The Nintendo Wii. The console that will bring Nintendo back to power. After looking far and wide for at least one of these babies, I thought all hope was lost. Until, my alternate mom's grandmother got one just for me during Christmas time. Then, on December 29th, 2007... I turned it on. [Insert Bill Cosby's skit about his Dual Horsepower, Dual Engines, Dual Everything Cobra here.] Got it alongside Rayman Raving Rabbids. It is sitting on it's throne next to the living room TV.

GROUP SHOT! LSD wasn't invited 'cause he stinks.

I hope you have enjoyed this presentation. Now gtho.

First of all: Yay GBA! Until recently, that was my most recent console. Also, do you shun your playstation 2 slimline due to the fact that they break down every 3 SECONDS? Cause if so, I feel your pain.

Go Gameboy DS!

Nah, I'm just a humble Nintendo fanboy, sir.

Let me see, here are the systems that I use to own (and currently owning):

NES-busted, most likely lost
SNES-Don't know if it works, but I can't find it.
Sega Genesis-Also busted and lost as well.
Playstation-Outdated but not sold or lost.
Dreamcast-Outdated (also, I don't know what happened to it).
Nintendo 64-Still works and sometimes used.
Playstation 2-Still used and works
Xbox-Got it, but by then, it was before the Xbox 360 came out.
Xbox 360-Currently using it.
Gamecube-Use to play it until the Wii came out.
Wii-Fun and enjoyable.
Gameboy-Use to have it (don't know what happened to it)
Gameboy Color-Similar fate like the original.
Gameboy Advance-Use to play it all the time, but lost interest due to lack of interests in some games.
Nintendo DS-Have it but busted (though I do plan to get the Lite version when I have the chance).
Playstation 3-Have it and using it.

Yes, I know its long, but I'm not making this up at all.
