hey all

found this place via the world of you tube
just joined on another forum yesterday (petes game room)

have been playing video games and also collecting video movies since I was knee high to a grasshopper in the early 1970's
tested out every home computer system ever made

favourite retro consoles - Super Nintendo & Mattel Intellivision
favourite PC - Commodore 128D

own many C64's and 128D's made in west germany and hong kong
also have a super nes with mortal kombat 3, stunt race sf, street fighter 2, super mario kart, killer instinct and a stack more
PS1 and PS2 and sega master system II

I focused my time on video movies and machines back in 1980 as a young kid and now have thousands and thousands of films on vhs (aussie and overseas tapes), betamax, laserdisc (pioneer machine) and dvd

have a video shed that was built in 1977 and will begin collecting my favourite video games and machines slowly but surely and post up videos on YT for all to see as I've done with my movie collection

catch ya all later

All good choices.  Man, I love B-17 Bomber.  I honestly played that for hours and hours, even in the late 1990s when I got it for the first time.  Excellent game, and it has great voice synthesis support (I also played Space Spartans a lot too).

Here's another good question for ya: what is your favorite game platform of all time (computer or console)?
