Kane99 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 It's not easy to own every peripheral for a console, especially from consoles back in the 80s and 90s, because there was often so many different peripherals released, that it's hard to keep track of. From expansions, to peripherals, are there any consoles you own that you have every peripheral for? I wish I had every peripheral for the Sega Genes, N64, SNES, and NES especially, including any extensions that connect to it. Are there any consoles in your collection that you own pretty much everything for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenfreak Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 If there's any console I would love to own all the peripherals for it would be the Sega Genesis, but like you mentioned it's going to be impossible to own them all since there were so many third party peripherals being released and these days some of them are considered rare and valuable. So if I was even to find them, they would be super expensive to purchase. I think the one I want the most that I don't own is the Sega Activator, it's a giant controller that you place on the floor and use your feet to control your games. I'm sure it doesn't work that well, but it looks cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I don't think I ever reached that stage with any console. I may own one or two peripherals outside of the original controllers but I've never been one to buy peripherals just for collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Button Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 I've been trying to complete my Sega Genesis collection, but it's been so tough. There are still a few rare items that are absolutely missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you had any luck with local retro gaming shops or conventions? Sometimes you can stumble upon hidden gems in those places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found rare gems at local meetups and online forums on so many occasions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if anyone else have noticed that some peripherals like Sega's Menacer or Nintendo's R.O.B are very hard to find. It's indeed a classic to collect.
