I have been hoarding all video game related stuff I got since around 1995, but really started collecting between 2000-2001.

My first systems were the Atari 2600 I got from my Uncle and a Gameboy. But what really got me going was when I got a SNES on Christmas Eve from my Dad and Genesis on Christmas Day from my Mom. It was all down hill from there.

For me collecting was just something I did as long as I have owned videogames. What made me realize that there were many more collectors out there was Tips & Tricks "Collectors Closet".

I collect everything related to video games. Unlike some people who collect for a specific system or era, I just take what I can get my hands on: shipping boxes, store displays, promotional boxes, et. cetera.

In recent years I have to admit my focus has shifted from anything video game related to anything Mortal Kombat related.

I have movie posters, movie reels, game/arcade posters, preorder items, variations, books, comics, store displays, art cells, etc. These things are mainly from the United States but a growing number are international items.

If you think you have something or know of something I may not have or know about please contact me :)
