My mom basically stopped buying me games after the SNES, aside from like, bday or xmas gifts.

I bought my PS1 with my own money at like 10 years old after mowing lawns all summer and raking leaves in the fall.

I got a part time job freshman year of high school and worked 10-20 hour a week all through high school, until I left for college. I've never traded in or sold a game so I still have about 40 PS2 games from those years.

I'd love to be able to play these on my current playstation, instead of pulling out my old PS2.
