I don't even know what happened to all of my old video game stuff. I'm sure my mom pitched it in the garbage as soon as I left the house. I have been collecting the systems I had when I was a kid and some I didn't. This was one I always wanted when I was younger, but never got around to getting. I am certainly glad for the emulators as well. :) My favorite feature of most emulators is the save state feature, so you can save before a particularly tough part.
