Collecting goals for 2008

[Tondog]

Get stuff that I think might be fun to play.

[OatBob]

Finish the Dreamcast collection.

...and I mean it this time.

Also, break 1000 games.

[Magewout]

My goal for this year is to complete last year's goals

[Sauza12]

This year was kind of a disappointment for me as far as collecting goes.  I probably didn't even add 100 games to my collection.  I blame it all on my new found addiction of arcade games.  Anyways, here are my goals for 2008:

Get an XBox 360 ( a carry over from 2007) Finally got one on 4/5!!!
Get a Neo Geo
Finish my 32x collection (Yeah, this is never gonna happen.  I think this is year three of this goal)
Get 2 more arcade machines, one of which should be a cocktail game and a pinball machine.
Finish my game room (as in put in drywall, carpeting, and a new drop ceiling among other things)

All are very obtainable things, but each will require a lot of money.  I'm also going to try to ramp my collecting back up to where it was during 2006.  Buying a house really made me conscious of how much disposeable income I had.

My main goal right now is to get another job so I can afford games again! I think I'm going to keep things modest this year. I should be able to pass 600 games. Hopefully I will be able to add a new system to my collection (hopefully 3do or Sega CD!). I would also like to replace my NGPC and beef up my Genesis collection. Right now I am keeping things simple because I am kinda broke right now.

Yeah, see, I'd really like to be able to find one cheaper than that. I have watched a few on eBay end around $100 in the past few months. That will most likely be my target price.

Well my first post I thought this would be a good place for it.
I'd love to start by getting RockBand for the 360 and continue through the year by buying more peripherals that come/came packed in with games.

My ultimate goal of 2008 will be to track down a complete NES Deluxe set.

Actually, finding a complete Deluxe Set isn't too terribly hard. It's finding one for less than $300-400 that's hard. Holy crap, man. Holy crap. That's why I'll be buying an Action Set to replace my NES.

Anyway, my goals for 2008... hmm...
- Re-start my NES collection
- Clear up my gaming space (my gaming area is in my bedroom, which is around 8'x10'... and one whole wall is unusable. I have to get my bed, bookshelves, desk + computer, AND a 27" CRT + gaming stuff into this space. Not. Easy.)
- Get a job (no employers are calling back :/)
- Hit 500 games by January 1, 2009

whoooo

[Kollision]

Mine are plain simple.... though not so cheap, I think

- Get a Turbografx-CD and finally see if it's worth it.
- Get Panorama Cotton, Gleylancer and Eliminate Down for the Mega Drive.
- Get all the Mega Man games I still don't have for the NES.
