Game Boy Advance. Actually all 3 variants (GBA, SP & Micro) are beautiful consoles.
I don’t collect anymore. I do still have a small amount of stuff that I enjoy but overall it’s too expensive, not enough space, unreliable media etc…
Probably true. A lot of the fans, like me, are from day one and never left.
For a console that lived a short life the fan base is absolutely amazing.
This is good news. Arguably should have happened a long time ago but still, good that it is finally happening.
The endless amount of hobbies that never seem to stick…
I bought Donkey Kong 64 as it included the expansion pak. God that game was a grind.
Psychon and Gravitation are the best ones.
Ita between the Dreamcast and GameCube for me. Especially all the coloured shells for the DC that look great.
Small shout to the Xbox One S with the vertical stand for looking slick too.
Gran Turismo 2 Plus
I also like stuff which keeps it mostly true to the original and GT2+ is unofficial patches + cut content added back + some new.
Wait… what year is it?
Playing what you had, good or bad, is how it was back then. Everyone has that game which is terrible to most but we love because it’s what we had available.
Plex is good and the Plexamp app for music is excellent.
F-Zero GP Legend Tekken 3
It’s a tough one. The list could be endless!
Definitely underrated and also failed so hard. Will always be my favourite though.
Very different games but I would say Gran Turismo is better.
I do like Rage Racer more than both of these though.
Spending hours online either on Phantasy Star Online or in the Dreamarena chat rooms.
Getting Shenmue and Shenmue II on launch days was a special time.
It’s been a few years but I remember some unofficial patches that improved the game for modern times.

Football Manager and Software Inc are probably the ones I go back to most often.
Also 99% of the games I play I never complete…
That’s amazing but some game companies should embrace and respect their history more. I spent many many hours doing laps on Hard Drivin’ as it’s one of the few games I had.
