Wow.
I just noticed Rik sold ALL his games to the NVM!?!
Geez. That sounds crazy but NVM (www.nvmusa.org) appears to be a really nifty, well-designed place for your collection. I hope to visit one day.
But the www.handheldmuseum.com website is an AMAZING reference for all the early handhelds.
I hope you don't miss your games too much, Rik. |

Yep, that's the one in TX, near Dallas. That's run by the guys that used to the Classic Gaming Expo in Las Vegas that I would display in every year. They finally got a permanent location for the museum, and it was time to let everything go. So much of it was just boxed in storage anyway. I was hoping to get more of them emulated in MAME before I let them go, but the timing was right...
I'm still maintaining the website (well, as much as I have the last few years...  )... I won't let that part of the collection die! |
