I sold off my video game collection around 2009, mainly to buy my first pinball machine, which was Family Guy. I ended up selling that to help buy a house. I have since got married, had a kid and now that things have slowed down, I wanted to get back into the Neo Geo. I have owned many consoles and the ones I regret selling the most are the Neo Geo and my Sega Saturn, so here I am again.

It's crazy how things have progressed in the retro scene, with things like the Framemeister and the Everdrive. Good times.

EDIT: I got you confused with another member who goes by the username BIG who's also in Ca. Though he's in the LA area.

fucking legendary. you don't know me but we all know THEMAN, the annhialator of worlds. give us a backstory on how you chose your username and what you do to afford all these homes in different countries.

I just want to go back to this previous post of yours. Other than my recent posts here, I've hardly been posting here for years. How does everybody especially the more recent members know me? How do I come up specially since I haven't been posting here for years and just recently started to post on this thread again specifically after a long time. Nice to know though that I still come up around here!! In what way though?

PS. Yeah, lol, I initially thought that dude was BIG. Same state, different city, and BIG hasn't been around here in a long time too.

FUCK YEAH!!

I was so excited to find out that the IOC was awarding both cities the games one for 2024 the other 2028 and it was up to the cities to work it out among themselves. I was like freakin' awesome as we owned property in both cities and it was easy for me and/or my mom to go. I have never watched the Olympics live just always on TV and in 2024 and 2028, I'll have two opportunities to watch the Olympics in person since it'll be so easy since my family owns an apartment in Paris and a condo in LA so there's no excuse to miss the games.

That's awesome. It's cool that you have property in Paris and LA. Great. You can enjoy the two Olympic games without needing to stay in a hotel since you have a place in those two cities. I've seen your fb page; it's like one big travel album. I know you have fb friends that are members here like Stealthlurker, Lee Grey, GregN. I'm sure they all enjoy your fb page as well. Keep it up. You're like the perfect role model for everyone on here.

Just checking in as Sam Sho 0 Special is coming out on PS4 and neo geo has been on my mind more. Not much changed in my life... working a lot and teaching my 4 year old to play fighting games.
