Well a few people asked me a question along these lines “Why are you getting rid of yours stuff ?” and “What are you selling ?”
The second question will be answered in the fullness of time. But first up the answer to the first question
Ive decided to become more of a games player and less of a collector for several reasons
Well the first is a bit obvious, its more fun, having games is one thing playing them is another
Whats the point of having hundreds of games and only playing one or two ?
So ive decided to only keep the ones that I like and get rid of those that I dont
The second reason is the space issue
All them consoles take up a lot of space and the games can take up even more.
What was “A broom cubboard of games” is now “A few boxes in the broom cubboard”
The third is a bit about my current income
Being jobless dont pay that much, ok some of these games wont fetch that much but every little helps (in before get a job)
The forth is more of a emotional reason
I dont have any fond memory's of the stuff im selling
Most games I have ive had for years (Nights, Gunstar heroes, Teddy boy, Yars revenge Etc etc)
Its gonna be hard getting rid of some of them
But still its gonna be more fun this way

You must be this small to play

As a nipper I remember looking up to a big thing with things that looked like bears that had been dipped into black paint, I am of course referring to the classic known as Space Invaders.
I remember standing on a small stool(Not as in shite as that would not make much height difference and make my shoes smell) and then pushing in a ten pence into the coin slot (where can you do that now and still get a game ?) then starting to play only to die quite fast (I didnt know what to do).
Time past (a few weeks) and I was finaly able to reach the controlls and so I was finaly able to play the game unaided, BUT ! I kept growing (or they started shrinking) and so a new problem started I was geting to tall to play any of the arcade games with out becomein a hunchback I tryed to use the stool mentioned earlyer but I could not ballance it on it.
So theres a new prob, I am too tall to play this is a major prob with Konamis nackering "Fighting Maina" where I cant reach the bottom pads.
So now im stuck.
Im too tall
What do I do ?
Cut my legs off so im not as tall ?
Or give up ?
Maybe that is one of the reasions why the arcades are disapireing ?
