That is "The Aeroplane Flies High" box set by the Smashing Pumpkins. It's a 5 CD box set. This link is just for example. This is not my set for sale: https://www.ebay.com/itm/325930416235?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=PMm34bCLRu2&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I didn't realize that some pinball could be played blindfolded.

I've played it, but not enough to rate it. I've only played it in recent years as an adult. I never had a chance to play it when it was new as a kid.

Since the OP was asking for examples of other member's setups, I'll post mine as well. Obviously, I don't have much to show, so I'm going to include all physical audio that I own. This is my setup which includes a basic record player, along with my working cassette deck and 300 disc CD changer. My setup even includes an old Sony DM Port player that can play iPods. My vinyl collection is small, but 100% music I enjoy. My CD collection is primarily from my younger days when I was big into music. While I prefer physical media in all forms (audio, movie, video games, etc.), I tend to use my physical audio the least mainly because I mostly listen to music in the car, and digital is just too convenient when I'm on the go.

I would argue that vinyl sounds worse than CD or digital, but that it can be more enjoyable because those scratches add feelings of nostalgia. For me, it's similar to listening to sports games broadcast over AM. Even though it doesn't sound better than FM, I still enjoy how it sounds and prefer listening to anything talk radio on AM over FM.

I finished Fargo season 5 tonight. I'm curious what @Brickman thought about the season (if you've finished it).

Not my favorite Michael Jackson song, but this one is ok.

I cared just enough to follow the story from the beginning. However, I haven't cared enough to give it much thought outside of watching any of the videos released about the situation. I also don't care enough to feel emotional about today's announcement. If I had to say anything, I guess I'm a little confused on how Billy could consider this a win, but at the same time not surprised. The story was just interesting enough to hold my attention, but now that it's over, I'm ready to move on.

Same story for us, except we were hovering around zero all weekend as opposed to just freezing. Not super uncommon for us. We tend to have about two weeks in winter time when we don't get much above zero. I'll look forward to getting back to 30 or 32. I typically don't bother with a coat at 32. A nice hoodie is good enough for that.

Didn't see it. Not going to. My wife saw it and actually took my boys to see it with her. She described it as "just ok."

Word to your mother.

I'm definitely of the belief that any ending to a game still counts as beating it. For example, in the original Wario Land, I don't see any reason to require the best ending. Even if you get the bird house ending (I think that's the worst ending), you've still completed the main part of the game and the final end boss. That should count in my book. But of course, there can and should be exceptions. I don't think it's unreasonable to not count the "joke" ending of Wario not getting out of bed. I also wouldn't count games that end half way through if you are playing on easy (like Magical Chase). While I'm 100% against games penalizing you for playing on easy, if the developers choose to cut you off at the half way point, then you should have to play on normal to be able to beat the game. These are just my opinions and I'm not overly attached to any of them. If the general consensus disagrees, the person running the contest, can set the rules as they see fit and I certainly won't lose any sleep over it.

I finished Donkey Kong tonight. I don't believe I've ever finished this game before. The last two worlds were very unfamiliar. The last few worlds are also pretty frustrating. It's still an amazing game.

COLLECT - Imports 100 I don't have pictures of 100 imports, because with the systems that are region free, I mix the imports in with my US games and pulling each of those out would take some time. I have a lot PAL Master System that are mixed in with my US games. I also have several PAL imports mix into my PS4 and Switch collection since they look nearly identical to the US games. However, I track the region of each game when I log it, and I can confirm that I own 159 import games. The split is 83 import games from Japan and 76 import games from PAL regions. I also have an assortment of import consoles and accessories (mostly PS1 and PC Engine).
