    Each time you reach a milestone this year, enter it into this thread. It should be fun to check back in a year later to see what kind of progress we all made.
    Here's the milestones I've reached so far this month:
    -Got my 940th game tonight, thanks to Bonanza Brothers on the Genesis.
    -Passed 180 NES games tonight, thanks to BreakThru. I'm currently at 182.
    -Also, my NES collection surpassed my SNES collection (currently at 181), making it my largest collection for any system.
    -Thanks to Othello, I now have an "A to Z" NES collection (where there's at least one game for each letter of the alphabet. The NES is also the only system I have an "A to Z" collection on.
    -Got my 10th Dreamcast game earlier this week, thanks to Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation.

    Well.. I may have technically hit the milestone on Christmas 07, I'm just now posting it

    The wife presented me with "Jetson's Way with Words" for the INTV which completes my US Intellivision collection (including all homebrews). The only thing I'm missing is Super Cobra and Tutankhamn which are Euro releases.

    Just added my 1,000th game with Raider of the Lost Ark for the 2600. I have a few more, but 1,003 isn't as notable as 1,000.

    Yay e!

    100th Playstation game acquired last week- Blast Radius, a much underrated Colony Wars-esque game.

    Well - I'm still going through the process of cataloging my collection,and I hit a milestone of over 1000 games the other day.But the real reason for this post (and my own personal milestone) is:

    Thanks to fellow DP'er DaveD,I am now the proud owner of 100 Complete In box Intellivision games. I got Sewer Sam off of him,along with a loose Turbo.With some eBay stuff & online buying - this number should go up by a bit. But,needless to say I am very happy

    I know this seems kinda tiny to most, but since I'm just starting out....

    I got my first R7 the other day with Herc's Adventures PSX, probably my first truly "rare" game

    My first NES game: Ninja Gaiden. ^_^

    I need an NES now though. >_<

    And I'm 3 away from 200 games total. That will probably change when I go to the flea market tomorrow.

    After this weekend's South Jersey Classic I have reached over 300 games! 309 according to my RFGeneration account and even though this isn't much compared to some on these boards, I'm pretty happy. I also have all of Squaresoft/Square Enix's titles for Game Boy Advance complete now which is one step closer to completing my Square collection.

    I just did it today.

    I hit 1000 games according to IGN (I have not put Spore in there).

    I was at 999, then bought Spore, that puts me at 1000 games. I definately see this as a huge milestone for me.

    I was thinking about what I would get for the 1000th game, but then all the good games just started happening (Titan AE Demo disc, Jack Bros).

    For my 1001, I will get a Starfox 2 Repro. I was trying to hold out to have it for me 1000th game, but I just really wanted Spore!
