I'll make it simple, and just ctrl+c and ctrl+v what I wrote at DP earlier today

This is me, in short:

Sondre, 17 years old, Vestby, Akershus, Norway, Europe, Tellus, Milky Way.

I grew up with two older brothers (and a little sister) having no more than a NES console and a, at that time, high-end laptop my dad used to take home from work. The games I played the most, were Super Mario Bros. and Super Pang! (Sachen), aswell as Mega Man IV and Street Gangs. My favourites on the computer were Day of the Tentacle, Police Quest and Kings Quest.

I started collecting video games and video game related stuff for about 5 years ago, when I found out that it would be fun to get hold of a NES and bring back some memories from my childhood. Although i started collecting about 5 years ago, I did not take the hobby "serious" until a year or two later. Other than having a huge interest in video game and video game culture, I love taking photos in my spare time. In the winter seasons, I go twin tip-ing with my friends.

[B]My handhelds:[/B] Gameboy Gameboy Pocket Gameboy Color Gameboy Advance Gameboy Advance SP Gameboy Micro Nintendo DS Nintendo DS Lite Sega GameGear Atari Lynx Sony PSP

[B]My consoles:[/B] Nintendo Entertainment System Super Nintendo Entertainment System Nintendo 64 Gamecube Nintendo Wii Sega Master System Sega Megadrive Sega Megadrive II Atari 2600 Atari 2600 Jr. Amiga 500 Commodore 64 Commodore 64c Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48k Philips CD-i 450 PlayStation PlayStation One PlayStation 2 Xbox 360

Most of the consoles are complete with box and manuals/inlays, and I do have several variants/bundles of most of them

Other than being a member here, I am currently an active forum admin for www.retro1.no.... I am also registered at www.cowabunga.se... and www.digitpress.com....

Welcome to NA, friend (PS, we're staging a plot to take over the US, but shhhhh... don't tell the Americans )

-------------------------

My mantra, as worded by SamSpade on 06/12/12:
I don't resell to fund my collection, I don't treat this hobby like a second job, I don't care if my collection is worth ten bucks or ten thousand because I never plan on selling it. Seriously, what does the value have to do with anything if you never plan on selling? Speculation doesn't mean jack shit to me at this point, I just want to play my nes games...

Thanks to all! What are you saying boss? Does this mean you have scammed me - again?!
Well, except for the fact that our trades never get done and the piles get bigger and bigger from month to month, we have traded for years ;D
