My collection sure has grown...

[NES_Rules]

I was glancing through my Photobucket account and found some pictures I took of my collection after I re-organized it the first time and then I realized how much it has grown in the past year and a half.
Started out like this;

With some more in the living room;

Then I got a new (actually it was from the trash but I repainted it) shelf

Filled it about 1/3 of the way;

Got a new cabinet-- Garage sale for $2

How has your collection grown since you really started collecting and not just buying a few games?

Looking good. I love the Video Pinball!!!

I have some pics from 6-4 years ago. I will have to post those when I do my new pics.

I wish mine worked, I plug it in and get a beep and that's it.  But I do have a Wonder Wizard, which is essentially the same.

when I started collecting, I had about 50 games that I had already, and now I have about 180.

Not to shabby of a collection growth.

I went from this to what's in my profile in 18 months.

Love the Mario cake pan!  You realize how hard those things are to find?

Yeah, it even has the paper insert, though it is a little discolored.  I think I paid 50 cents for it at a garage sale.

I am blind and don't see the pan. Where is it?

I think it's in the 6th picture from the top of this thread. It is to the left of the TV on top of a speaker.

[Tynstar]

Damn I am blind.

Thanks

In the fourth pic from the top, is that some kind of wooden NES next to the other 2 toaster decks?  What the hell is that thing?  Nice work on the collection too!

Yeah, its a wooden NES.  I wanted to make one of those NES alarm clocks (which can be seen sitting on top of the TV) but I didn't have any spare "shells" so I took the insides out of one NES and made a wooden shell for it.  It is fully functional too.  Except the door is a bit too high and I have to unscrew the entire font of it to change the game. 

[MrMark0673]

Didn't even realize that was an alarm clock, cool stuff.  Thats a pretty cool idea on the wooden Nintendo.
