Hi Y'all,

My name is Jesse, I am originally from Toronto Canada, but have been living (and will continue for a while) in South Korea. Unfortunately the retro gaming scene is fairly non-existent here... Well, anything other than PC gaming and PC rooms is pretty irrelevant here. So hopefully my time in the forums can keep my love for the hobby alive and well.

I used to be really into collecting for all systems, but when I moved here decided to sell pretty much anything CD based and forward. I would like to focus on collecting for the NES specifically though as I have a close connection with the console.

I also have an insane love for homebrew games! The fact that there are dedicated communities of people that are still creating and releasing new games for 30+ year old hardware make me insanely happy. Unfortunately, due to my lack of programming knowledge, I try to be part of the community as someone who consumes and enjoys rather than actually making games -- but learning assembly and giving it a shot is definitely on the bucket list!

I am pretty active on Twitter, and enjoy communicating with the homebrewers through that medium. I also try to make videos on YouTube about NES/Hardware/Homebrews too (oh look another schmuck with a YT channel).

TL;DR: I like NES & Homebrews, but collecting and enjoying with a community is next-to-impossible in Korea.

Hopefully I will stay a while any enjoy the sights

To the Finder...
The Isle of Koholint is but an illusion...
Human, monster, sea, sky...
A scene on the lid of a sleeper's eye...
Awake the dreamer, and Koholint will vanish much like a bubble on a needle...
Cast-away, you should know the Truth!
