Console clutter - oldschool

[Marco]

I dunno if it's the most obscure or not, but certainly the thing I want the most out of that pile is the original pressing *rare-as-fsck* wipE'out" in the long box, not to play it of course (I've got 2 ordinary copies for that) but to frame it and build a shrine around it.

That's not so weird is it?

(Is the long-box rare?)

Exceedingly, over on wipEoutZone the longbox is like the holy grail of wipEout stuff, except possibly for the t-shirt worn by (IIRC) Sarah Cox on the advert for the first game (which was banned in Germany because they thought it promoted drugs). Two of the lonboxes together (for different formats as well) should cause a reality implosion or something. If you have a copy of wipEout Fusion in a lenticular sleeve (pseudo-3D effect thingy) that is also quite rare. Though not looked upon so highly as the longbox as Fusion is regarded by wipEout fans as a bit of a train-wreck.

Only 2 people on wipEoutZone so far as I know have the Amiga version of wipEout2097: me and this French guy called Arnaud who has copies of pretty much everything wipEout related and holds most of the time records there.
