Just trying out this Imageshack business. This should be the top section of my tabletop games. This pic is a little out of date now.

Here are the middle and bottom section of my desktop games. My games are kept in a small attick room so I can't photograph everything at the same time. These pics were taken just after I had (at long last) finished the shelves, so things have been moved around and have filled out a bit since. I hadn't even hoovered up the sawdust. Sorry! Neil.

Hello Billy,
Welcome to our little forum Smile

. I started collecting around mid 2003 after being inspired by Rik's Museum. Collecting would have been no where near as much fun without him, and now I've got you lot to chat to too Very Happy

.

I'm not sure exactly how many games I have. I usually say about 250 (but I have been saying that for a while now) . I probably have most of the more common 'handheld' games up to 1984. I don't have any LCD games with the exception of the tabletop Nintendo's and Tomyrtonic 3D's.

As I bid on games to a budget, my collection is only growing slowly now if I get lucky. I was very pleased to win a beautiful condition Tomytronic 3D Jungle Fighter the other day for ?5.50 Yessss!

. Just a Sherman Attack to get now to complete the set Very Happy

.

My collection is nowhere near as impressive as people like Rik, Linda's and probably quite a few other members of the Forum. I think I am quite unusual in that I don't collect the games boxes. I haven't the budget or space to display them. All my games are on 'display' in my attic room. I like to be able to get my hands on any game at any time. It has got rather cluttered up there of late with other items being stored infront of my games Embarassed

.

Best of luck with your collections,

Neil.

Hello Mario,
They are Imaginamics One Fingered Bandit

http://www.handheldmuseum.com/Misc/ImaginamicsOneFingeredBandit.htm

Imaginamics DICE and Imaginamics Roulette.

I have 2 versions of the Roulette game with several differences :-

Both have metal weighs in their bases but one is coated in plastic,

The curcuit board has been totally re-designed,

The LED's on one protrude from the face where the other's LES's are virtually flush,

The activation button has been slightly re-designed,

Sorry about the quality of the pics but they were taken with my old camera which had problems.

Did I give you pics of Roulette and DICE before the Forum started Rik? If so, I could probably give you better ones now. Maybe they were lost when your computer was stolen?

Neil.

I remember you sending me those pictures before... But that might have been back on my other computer. If you can take new ones, please send them on!

Thanks, Rik
