Not nearly as filthy as it sounds.
Yes, I have an entire bin for Pokemon plushies.
And Neopets, but don't tell the Pokemon that.
I discovered a lot of board games that I forgot I had. In fact, that would make a moderately entertaining weblog entry. This bin has a selection of games covering at least 25 years, from The Three Stooges VCR Game through Travel Cluedo to Lord of the Rings Trivia. Never played Bootleggers.
And that's where Vapor's Gambit rests, folks.
Remember when Magic tried to branch out into family games themed to the M:tG world? I didn't either, until I saw that Earthquake game again for the first time in ten years.
Killer Bunnies, if you haven't picked up on my website's ongoing anti-Killer Bunnies sub-theme, is supremely terrible.
Here's some fairly recent acquisitions, a bin packed with video gaming paraphernalia. At bottom right is a stack of Game Boy instruction manuals. Right beside it is all my PlayStation Underground disks.
We just need to set up the carpeting appointment (and the cable outlet hookups), and then our new basement room is done. We're filling it with existing furniture so our little expense train comes to a temporary stop. We have already moved the Mappy down there... and shifting coin-op units down stairs is not their intended use. They were intended to sit on a ground floor dive and con kids out of quarters. Given that the basement has no egress other than those stairs, it seems highly probably that, should we ever move, the new owners will receive a free Mappy. That, or we'll have to install a service elevator. Which would be pretty badass.
