In March of 2019, I started to rediscover my love for retro gaming when I dug up my old Pac-Man Connect & Play system from 2015. A few months later in May, I got my Atari 2600 and a couple tiny arcade systems from Walmart. Then, beginning on May 26th, 2019, I began to set them all up in my room, officially marking the start of my collection!

What began as a small shelf of primarily retro gaming stuff later evolved to me displaying things of all interests, and growing my room to a size I could've never imagined all those years ago. This page is dedicated to sharing pictures in its current state, as I've grown very, VERY proud of it as time has gone on!

In addition to everything in my room, starting in late 2022 I also began collecting original arcade PCBs! Currently I own:

The NewZealand Story (Old version)

Bubble Bobble

Bubble Symphony

Bubble Memories

Puzzle Bobble 2x

Super Puzzle Bobble

Space Invaders DX

Namco Classic Collection Vol. 2

60-in-1 iCade

Midway Space Invaders (in its own dedicated cabinet)

And as for motherboards, I have:

Taito F3

Taito G-Net

It all started after I accidently won a bid for The NewZealand Story. I placed my number without thinking much of it and was surprised when no one bid after. I had never owned an original arcade board before, let alone got one to run on my CRT, so it took me a little while to get everything I needed. But that moment I turned the game on and saw it boot correctly was something I'll never forget! Since then, I've learned a lot of skills related to electronics, and it's been really fun finally feeling like I've connected with this hobby I've been interested in for so many years!
