Wow 2 of the 10 people who bought Sega Dreamcast are on this board. That system was ridiculous. I think I still have it somewhere, I'll have to take some time to look for it.

It was a quality system. I bought it at the end of its life because you could hack it to play NES games off a CD. Hell, the only reason I have a Wii is because I hacked it and just homebrewed anything I wanted.

I had a Dreamcast and loved it. Soul Calibur, all of the 2K Sports games, some great memories. I was even in the rare minority that really liked the Dreamcast controllers.

In closing, Eff Sony.

Joined a few days ago, but wasn't quite sure where to start, so I'll start here! :)

Name: James
Age: 17
Sex: Male
Birthplace: Fairfax, Virginia
Hometown: Vienna, Virginia
Nationality: American (mostly), German, Irish, and Puerto Rican.
Height: 5'3
Weight: I forgot, but I'm a bit underweight.
Hair Color: Blackish-brown
Eye Color: Light blue
Mode of Transportation: 2000 Honda Accord (almost driving)
Job: Student
How you became a jersey collector: Grew up playing hockey games, always loved the different jerseys and played around with the different ones. Nowadays I can go back to my childhood and find those old jerseys on ebay among others, but other jerseys are awesome too. I started my collection this year and hope to expand it greatly. :D (I'll collect new jerseys too, but I prefer the oldies!). Occasionally I regret not collecting them growing up, which was when most teams wore my a lot of my favorites. But hey, I'll find them someday.
Favorite Player: When I was a kid? Brendan Shannahan. Currently? Well, I have a lot, but three include Jagr, Brodeur and Kariya. And of course, Gretzky. :P
Favorite Player to hate: Sean Avery...though I really like his character.
College Attended/Attending: Not sure where I'm gonna go.
Video Game Systems Owned: I'm quite a gamer, but here we go: NES, Genesis, N64, Dreamcast, PS2, 360, Wii, PS3, Wii U, GBA, all the DSes and 3DSes, PSP, PS Vita. Yeah, I'm kinda spoiled when it comes to that, haha.
Favorite Game(s): Ugh, this is the worst kind of thing for me to answer. But my favorites that come to mind are NHL 2000 for the PC (my first video game ever, and one of the main reasons I'm into video games and hockey.), a lot of Nintendo IPs (Mario, Zelda, Smash Bros., etc.), NASCAR games, most racing games, retro games.
Music You Listen Too: Varies. Usually singles from random albums that I heard a lot playing in video games growing up, and video game soundtracks (not licensed music, I mean as in original music like in Mario or Zelda).
Favorite Movie (s): Back to the Future trilogy, old Disney animated movies, Sudden Death.
Favorite Food: Breakfast cereal, bacon.
Favorite TV Show: NHL on the Fly on NHL Network, Sportscenter on ESPN (wish we got TSN down here :(), NASCAR Race Hub (Fox Sports 1).
Anything Else: Not much, just glad I found a community that loves such an obscure subject as hockey jerseys as I do, and hoping I could socialize with them and enhance my experience as a jersey enthusiast/collector. :)
