I've tried to make some normal conversation with some of you guys, some of who are really cool, very informative, helpful people and i thank you for that

Some of you, are just a bag of hole-less dicks with blue balls dating back to the early 90's.

I guess most of you can put me under the "collectard" category or whatever the fuck it is.

I collect Games, some of which come in those shiny, fancy, pieces of cardboard. I like some of the "Collector's Editions" especially the ones that have some cool statues. I don't mind paying a bit extra for those (notice how i said A BIT)

I've been playing games all my life, i've owned every console except the Atari Jaguar, and Virtual Boy.

Yes i have a fucking 3DO and i love the fuck out of some of the games (Road Rash, Monster Manor, Super Street Fighter 2) the console sucks but i enjoy some of the games, sorry i left out GEX which is also a favorite of mine.

I've made a bunch of purchases on the internet, garage sales, ebay, etc

I've come across some extremely valuable shit in my short time as a "Collectard" and i've sold some extremely valuable and shitty games for some high prices.

This is how it works in case some of you didn't know

I buy a "Lot" of games for the SNES, hmmmm a copy of Earthbound? i already have this shit, oh and a copy of fucking Chrono Trigger i don't need a second copy? BUT WAIT! a copy of Super Valis IV, man i've really wanted to try this game out so i'll keep this, oh and NHL 94??!??!! I USED TO LOVE THIS FUCKING GAME! i'm gonna light up a fucking fat joint and drink a beer, play this with on of my fellow Ranger Fans!

so i keep the two games that I personally want, and guess what? I sell the fucking dumb copy of Earthbound along with Chrono Trigger on the internet. Somebody wants to pay me $170 for a "Rare" copy of Earthbound and a "Rare" copy of Chrono Trigger???? When the fuck did these games become "RARE" i don't fucking know, but i don't fucking care either because now i've got $250 in my pocket that i didn't have before. Hmmmm, it's just some extra pocket change, i'll set it aside in case i find some great games i want to play at a decent price

A Week later I find a 3DO holy shit! comes with 30 games? some of them SEALED? and the guy only wants $150??A?!? i'll take it!

so now i have an additional fucking $100 i got off somebody who believes Chrono Trigger and Earthbound are holy fucking grails and no other kid in their neighborhood has them and they'll be the god damn talk of the town!

oh, and i also have a 3DO now fucking SWEET

but what the fuck do i want these god damn Sealed Games for? i'm only gonna play 5-6 out of these games so i'll trade these stupid games off, whatever

2 months later, someone posts an ad on craigslist, HEY I WANT SOME SHITTY 3DO GAMES !

so i write to this idiot who wants to play TWISTED and fucking KILLING TIME

he tells me what he has for trade, holy shit a fucking set of AES Games! I have an AES somewhere, shit i dont' have any carts though. fine lets make this trade happen

3 months later i build a MAME cabinet, hmm. i guess i'll never touch that damn Neo Geo Again. Maybe someone i know can use it? Trade it off for some SNES games (he got the better end of the deal of course) but i don't fucking care, now i can play the BOF games for SNES and some Lufia, etc. i'm a sucker for RPG's.

Rinse - Repeat

So now i come to you guys

man i found a turbo express with 20+ games, but shit i don't know a damn thing about this

I had a turbografx-16 with sidearms, Bonks revenge, JJ and Jeff, i didn't even have fucking keith courage for christ's sake.

I come here looking for more info, man some great stuff on here i didn't know! i look further into the TurboDuo, and find one at a good price. Cool, now i can finally play that Dracula X game which sucks on the SNES, oh and Ys! FUCKING Ys!!!! (which i still don't own) cool i'll sell my turbografx-16, why keep it if i'm never going to use it?

someone offers me $80? hmmm, well they do sell for $100+ on ebay... whatever kid just give me the $80, hey i'll also toss in this copy of Keith Courage since i have 2.

TurboExpress, hey does anyone want this? somebody offers $150... i saw nah man! this thing needs to be recapped! $150 is too high, oh wait what's a recap he asks? i tell him, check out fucking pcenginefx those dudes can help, they're the best in regards to this Turbo shit. He ends up giving me $100 since it's cosmetically in great shape and the video still works.

So now i've got $180 laying around, hmmm a collection of games on craigslist for $100? some titles in here i wouldn't mind playing.

i come home and see some fucking weird game called Congo Bongo? i post the shit up online and people are like HOLY FAAAAAAAACKIN SHEEEEET is that the fucking INTELLIVISION VERSION?:!>!?!

ummm. i don't fucking know man i guess?

OH MMMMMMMMMMGAWWWD it has the box AND manual?! dude you've got something really expensive!!!

so i throw this shitty looking game on ebay, HOLY FUCK it sold for $350? but why? they have this stupid looking game on other consoles for 1/100th of the fucking price this dickhead just paid.

Doesnt fucking matter to me! now i can buy Ys book 1 + 2, and some fucking Valis games!!! STOKED

but wait, now i'm the fucking asshole when i come on here because i just exploited these dumbasses for paying me $350 for a crushed,creased box and the shitty game that came inside it.

How does that work? You guys shit on the Seller, when it's the buyer's fault for jacking up the prices

I'm no fucking Turbografx expert, so i come to you people for some info. Take some suggestions and run with them, make a few purchases based on recommendations. Man this TurboDuo is sweet! and now i can play using my AV cables!

so now i'm trying to get deeper into this stuff, try to post some shit that's on my mind, man this PCEWorks stuff looks pretty cool!

i dont wanna fucking read japanese so MAYBE i'll consider buying some of this shit, but DAMN those prices are too high. NEVERMIND

i come here and ask about the work they do, and i'm bashed instantly. WTF?

just a fucking question, jeez. What the fuck is the problem?

"use the fucking search" well, let me tell you. i can use the fucking search but guess what? i want to communicate with you people, i want to know what's on your minds so i fucking ask. God fucking forbid i try to establish a fucking conversation in a fucking FORUM? what the fuck was i thinking?

So now i'm the fucking asshole who asked about PCEWorks, omfg you're a troll, GTFO, why are you talking about that,etc... man wtf just happened?

Is this a fucking secret society of bullies or someshit? some of you just wait around, read the posts and jump at any opportunity to have an excuse to flame someone? that's pretty fucking sad.

what about hey man, that Tobias guy is a fucking dick, check out what he did!
YEAH DUDE THAT GUYS IS A FUCKING ASSHOLE don't promote him, dont buy his shit, THIS IS WHY

NOOOOOOOOOOO fuck that, let's fucking insult this guy he's new here? HAHAHA LETS FUCKING CHEW HIM UP AND SPIT HIM OUT HAHAHAHA

WTF is wrong with some of you people?

go ahead and talk all the shit you want on this thread, it's very entertaining, but seriously what is the problem?

yes, i understand "because of people like me" the prices have sky-rocketed, whatever the fuck that means. like i'm the fucking pricing authority that decides what people are gonna pay for shit.

yes, i understand there is a surge in bootleg shit all over the place

yes, the games you people want are becoming harder and harder to find

But guess what? i'm not a fucking douchebag that's here to start shit up with anyone, i'm actually very interested in this console, and some of you are very nice people. i'm a very nice guy, i'm very generous, i give shit away all the time that i could sell for plenty of cash. and i'm not looking for a pat on the back for any of that, but i'm not about the money or the fucking game count (oh hey i have 650 fucking NES carts that i'll never play) etc who gives a fuck?

So why are some of you such fucking assholes? you guys can easily push people out of here with your hostility towards new members, some less resilient than i am

PCEngineHell

Who are you again? Fuck you have done like 60 post, but all I can recall you doing is the PCEWorks related threads it seems like.... Maybe your problem is you indirectly associated yourself with Tobias. That would definitely carry a stigma.

I'd have to say though, I think 3DO is cool. Way more good games on the system then just 5-6 titles. Especially if you import. The thing about selling sealed, originals, doubles, triples, rares, no one cares. Sell your doubles all you want at fair market value. If you can make your hobby support itself without ripping people off, more power to you. Come on the forum though and try to sell them for more then a fair going rate, then obviously you will get hounded.

As for the other stuff, no one cares. Seriously. NO. ONE. CARES. If you think we are all like fucking assholes or something, go take a trip on over to Neo-Geo.com or something, then get back to us after a couple weeks or so.

PolygonDaily

WHAT?! more than 5-6 games? like what?

Need for Speed was fucking amazing
Gex
Road Rash (arguably the best version)
SSF2T - excellent port
Monster Manor (i dunno, i like it)
FIFA was great for it's time
MYST pretty cool but i had the PC version

what else?

Thank you, Prof.

Polygon, I, too, have a 3DO and I have enjoyed many games on it.

But that's not the point.

The point is that we are not going to collectively throw up our hands and say, "Well, I guess we should passively accept the collectardization of our hobby."

Of course, if you are older, you know that Atari suffered collectardization much earlier, because the folks collecting were older than my generation.

And, like a naive ponce, I thought: well, that will never happen to NES and beyond...

Of course, I was wrong, not realizing that collectardization is a function of aging generations + nostalgia + disposable (hopefully) income + fetish for physical objects + (occasionally) genuine love for a damn video game.

Most of us (except for emulation-only) have admitted that we are varying degrees of collectard (for some of us, if we had the money, we would want sealed games...if only to open them. I fall into this category. However, I don't have money in my budget to buy games, period. But if I could, I'd want all the cardboard and paper and plastic.)

Wing Commander III
Crash and Burn
Return Fire

Space Hulk
Slam 'n Jam (I don't even like basketball, but this game was fun like NBA Jam was)
Novastorm
Syndicate
Phoenix 3 (play style is kind of like Flashback or Blackthorne)
Pyramid Intruder
Shockwave 2: Beyond the Gate
Strahl
Royal Pro Wrestling

You should have had one of those joints before starting this thread.

PolygonDaily

I did!

Shit I forgot wolfenstein! I played it on the pc that's why

And yes those alone in the dark games were really good too, out of this world and flashback also great games

Which brings up my next thought, IGN  gave out of this world (re-release) a fucking score of like 4 out of 10... wtf? They complained about shitty controls wtf did they expect?

PCEngineHell

IGN isn't very credible for anything it seems like, so I don't pay attention to their reviews anymore.

The problem was that you feigned complete ignorance about Tobias's history, started a clean thread instead of using an existing one, and showed off your precious promo stuff for no reason or with an explanation of why you got it.  If you just wanted to discuss it and not reek of trolldom, why couldn't you be bothered to use the recent lengthy discussion of why Tobias is a turd?

Your post history begs to differ.  Case in point:

We hear this complaint every now and again, but not surprisingly it's always from the select few pieces of shit like yourself that don't understand why we don't great their special brand of stupidity, greed, flipflopping, and general asshattery with open arms.

I'm not VestCunt, and to be honest I don't know what his thoughts are on the subject of fair market value. If someone is asking for a fair price for their stuff, why should I give a flying fuck. I don't expect someone to just give their shit away or let their stuff go for under a fair price. Gouging however is fucked up, and I wont condone it. I'm not going to spend days on end ranting about it mind you, but I'm not cool with it either way it goes.

Years later, someone may come across this and not understand the private joke... So basically, this is [gamer] "bros" charging their JO crystals... It's a play on a dating ad found on Something Awful which galam (a member) shared here:

Quote from: bob on 03/10/2015, 11:51 AMcrystal.jpg
The concept is "charging" your "JO crystal" with your "pardner" and when you look at Sonic and his dudebro in the GIF, they're holding crystals and engaging in a particular hand motion similar to you know, JO (jacking-off), get it, get it ?? If you understand the thought behind this dating ad and imagine 2 dudebros holding their crystals together in peace, friendship, love, harmony, etc. then you can figure out why that Sonic GIF "fits" the situation as a joke, the humor behind it. Alright? That's the best I could do to explain this. :lol:

Psycho Nulltard (AKA John Moriconi) took it a step further (A King of XCESS, that's for sure!), made a live-action meme with another dudebro he met here on this forum:
Quote from: Nulltard on 03/27/2015, 02:53 PMchargeup.jpg
Get it ?? They're "charging their JO crystals" together in peace, love, harmony, BFFs and all that... And naturally he used the opportunity to manipulatively spam his shitstain PC Engine site (the "DuoPhile" logo) hoping to poach the very members he met here while he was at it, never missed an opportunity for that...

He worked diligently to make entertaining jokes so somewhere he could slip in his spam, make it more palatable, get away with it, make it more forgiving. But the reality is it was a genuine threat, I have *never* seen a positive outcome with another forum/site admin under the same theme/purpose floating around in another forum/site spamming it, deliberately trying to poach membership while down-playing the effort to keep it ambiguous/non-threatening, prevent an outright rule to ban the behavior.

The fiery flames in the background given his scorched-earth, destructive bridge-burning, gang harassment incitement, etc, is really eye-opening looking at now, gotta say! Anyway, that's a long story that's been written about elsewhere but you now have an understanding why that cursed "DuoPhile" logo is just there awkwardly... But hey, you can still give the asshole credit, it was hilarious when you have all the context! As is the Sonic GIF, I had to laugh while writing this.

obviously, didn't you fucking read the part where i said "i feel bad for you, but then i don't"

i like you, but then i don't like you.

Actually, let me rephrase that:

I respect your passion for this shit, i really do. Communities like these wouldn't be what they are if it weren't for people like yourself, and in a strange way i look up to that. Me and you did not start off on the right foot, and i dislike that you make negative comments on all of my fucking posts, but whatever. you wanna flash your fucking mall cop badge around these forums instead of sucking some sweet dick, that's on you pal. i'm sure you enjoy both equally

Maybe someday we can have a normal conversation without hating one another, or MAYBE i can start a thread where you don't make a fucking little bitch comment, but until then you can suck a dick.

Quote from: PolygonDaily on 08/21/2015, 10:48 AMSo I'm like hittin' up every Toys R Us I can find, searching gor kids' toys variants to keep them falling into the hands of children, cuz FUCK the children! Right? So I only paid $10 for some gold Mario figurines before any kids could ruin them by opening them up to play with. YOU'RE WELCOME COLLECTORS!!! Then I look on eBay and some fuckin chumps are letting them go for like, $70 and I'm like, FUCK THAT SHIT. I list 'em for $1000. Now I just sit back and wait for $990 to roll straight into my fucking pocket, so I can use it to by up all the limited edition 3DS bundles. If little Timmy thinks he likes Zelda and wants one, well guess what? He's gonna have to save up his allowance for a VERY long time if he wants one, cuz I made sure that he won't find any at MSRP.

That's why they call me lowballin. Cuz I buy low and sell as high as I am when posting comments online. Anyone who can't respect my business is just fuckin jealous. If you had skills like me, maybe your instagram would have a corporate sponsor.
One of the key traits which separates collectards from people who collect things they enjoy, is the arrogance and rotten attitude. I guess Polygonaldaly sure proved how much he definitely is NOT a collectard with his classy essay on flipping.


Here he is selling PCE Works to his fan base:

Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand...scene.

i don't sell PCEWorks, i got a fucking promo, and guess what? i promoted it...

theeeeen i come on here and holy shit Tobias screwed some people (or everyone in that case) since you're all brothers in arms right?

People asked me about the PCEWorks stuff and i answered them, it's part of what i do. i post content, people like it, dislike it, buy it, trade for it, sell to me, etc

and i wouldn't call it a "Fanbase" i don't have Fans, just like you guys have a community there are others which exist that i've become a part of, very different than this of course but they do exist

You shouldn't be though, and that there in lies the problem. You promote Tobias shit, then you get lumped in with the same kind of youtube retards that have been doing the same. You cant sit here and complain about that after knowing the guy's history and being willing to actively promote him anyway.

Actually, after seeing what that person did i don't plan on promoting them. I am planning on shedding some light on this subject to my "Followers", and sharing it with the community i'm a part of. I was directed here by a member of that community, who actively posts/buys/trades here which is why i'm here to begin with. A friend recommended this forum for more info on the TurboDuo, etc.

What i find weird is that, that same person was the one who told me about the PCEworks stuff, since they're pretty active on here (so they say) i wonder why they would point those products out to me? anyway, that's besides the point

 Stealing other peoples work, and then profiting off of it, i don't plan on encouraging that behavior. Like many other things NEC-related, i don't know the history, or the culture, so i was oblivious to what had happened or what continues to happen. Last night was the first that i've learned of this shitty act he pulled

JoshTurboTrollX

Actually he's an Obey warrior preaching to the noobie/instant collectors that the Tobias DracX, Beyond Shadowgate etc etc are actually the best value and directs them to collect that crap which then in turn leaves the originals for us to play.

:)  Right?

I was directed here by a member of that community, who actively posts/buys/trades here which is why i'm here to begin with. A friend recommended this forum for more info on the TurboDuo, etc.

What i find weird is that, that same person was the one who told me about the PCEworks stuff, since they're pretty active on here (so they say) i wonder why they would point those products out to me? anyway, that's besides the point

 Stealing other peoples work, and then profiting off of it, i don't plan on encouraging that behavior. Like many other things NEC-related, i don't know the history, or the culture, so i was oblivious to what had happened or what continues to happen. Last night was the first that i've learned of this shitty act he pulled
Wtf do you keep going on about followers for? Who are these "followers", wtf is this nonsense you keep talking about?

Quote from: esteban on 08/21/2015, 10:57 AMThe point is that we are not going to collectively throw up our hands and say, "Well, I guess we should passively accept the collectardization of our hobby."
This is going to happen, regardless of what anyone on this forum does, passively or actively. None of the flaming really achieves anything beyond entertaining forum drama. Dquals is still actively spending shit tons on TG16, despite getting chased out of here.

So, victory I guess? If the goal was to prevent the "collectard"-ization of the hobby, it was a miserable failure.

Considering how good deals take place here all the time I would actually argue the opposite. Nobody is going to sell Beyond Shadowgate for retail price, but we'll sell you Bonk for $2 all day, which prevents full colectardation from setting in. Then when the market collapses we can pick up the pieces.

Seems like a lot of people like Sylphia, but I just cant get into it really. I had the same exact problem with Elemental Master. I'd play it, but just was meh about it.

Elemental Master is definitely one of thest shooter on the Mega Drive. Ince you learn the first 4 levels, items and controls it gets really good. Worth giving it another go for sure.

If you play your games, you have a library not a collection.  If that applies to you, then you're not a collectard.

Well said, and this place has been super cool to me and I am a new member. It's pretty crazy to me how much beef between the veterans and other new comers to this forums. I guess I am lucky to not have been excessively flame roasted, but then again this is my first fighting street post so that could change any minute! :D

You shouldn't be though, and that there in lies the problem. You promote Tobias shit, then you get lumped in with the same kind of youtube retards that have been doing the same. You cant sit here and complain about that after knowing the guys history and being willing to actively promote him anyway.

You know what? I'm going to go play some games instead of arguing about who killed who. Who's up for a game of Triad Stone?
