I seem to see a lot of collectors getting into the Vectrex these days. I've always wanted to see one in person, just because I hear it's an experience to actually see it booted up.
I'm trying to stick with my Wii U and 3DS this gen. I did the multiple console thing last generation and it was too much! The only problem is that I've been a Sony follower since the PSX, so it's going to be difficult not getting one.
Maybe after an ample price drop, like you mentioned, I'll get one, haha.
THE RAPTOR HAS A TOP HAT
I know I've read about Eclair on some other post you wrote (not sure which site), but I'll reiterate the sentiment that I'm sorry for your loss. I know if I had to go through that with my cat, Penny, I'd be devastated.
As for the game, that's pretty cool! I liked the Konami handhelds when I was a kid. I had the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles one and I played it a lot, and a friend had C (Contra). I wonder if it's still at my parents house? I wonder if it works!?
Lately this stuff bothers me, but it didn't "back in the day". Now that I have limited play time, when I have to do some side mini-game or frustrating section (like sneaking) it drives me nuts because I just want to get to the good stuff.
Back when I was still in high school, I was the king of Triple Triad in FF8.
I got the PSP the day the Vita was announced, actually. I love my PSP. The library is great, it's super comfortable to play with and I think it's great that I can buy PSOne Classics on my PS3 and then play them on the PSP. I think the two consoles go great together.
I saw the PSP for sale for like $50 at The Source the other day. I think that's kind of like a smaller Canadian version of Circuit City. Used to be Radio Shack. I dunno if all stores are liquidating their PSPs for that price, but it could be a great addition if you don't already have one!
I picked up Sonic & All-Stars to try a different cart racer out (I ususally just stick to the Mario Kart games) and it is so hard! I really like it, though. I'm just taking some time to get used to it.
I've never been into dungeon crawlers, so I haven't played anything else in the series. I downloaded the demo, I'm going to try it out. I hadn't really played a Fire Emblem before the demo and that completely sold me on the game, which I'm obsessed with right now. Trying new things is good!
I don't really collect games, so it was pretty easy to add mine. I think it was like 250 total. I didn't add my sports games that have just magically materialized over the years. Except for Base Wars (NES). I love that game.
I just try to stick to the games I know I love and will play down the line. I, unfortunately, never seem to sell games that I don't play so the list keeps getting bigger. The only game I ever sold was Grand Theft Auto IV. I really didn't like that game. I'd also sell Spectral Force Genesis for the DS if anyone would actually take it, haha.
I went through each of my systems yesterday and added my collection and it actually wasn't that bad. I didn't do the text file, which I hear is easier, and the interface was still pretty fast.
I'm trying to get back into anime myself. The last thing I watched was some episodes of Evangelion in preparation for the last Rebuild film. I've been thinking of trying out Gundam from the beginning, but not sure. Anyway, looking forward to blogs on the topic!
