My small collection of boxed PC

My small collection of boxed PC

All of it collected back in the day. Finally got my own place so these are on display in a wooden cabinet in my bedroom.

I looked online to see if I could grab a couple of favorites (Fallout 2, Planescape) but had no idea how prohibitively expensive boxed PC was out there now. I should’ve guessed, it’s 2026.

Got lucky at the thrift shop.

Bought 3 of them for 50 euro in an auction. When I collected them, they said they had a full crate. Rest I bought for 12.50 a piece..

Bought Crusader No Remorse.

I also just bought No Regret and the collection of both games. I have the Saturn version of No Remorse and I need to get the PS1 version, going to build a mini Crusader collection shrine. Those games are so damn good.

Got a cib G-Nome in today.

Neat to have this cib all these years later. I only had it as a loose pack in for a PC or video card.

Latest additions to the collection!

All games in French, as I'm, well, French. I am overjoyed to have at last secured a copy of Fate of Atlantis.

I made Shenmue PC box that never existed — looking for honest feedback

https://preview.redd.it/ylanm72gyyzg1.jpg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=88869ccd74076672403116f1ec113dc916dabf54

Shenmue was never released on PC for Windows 98, but there were rumors back in the day when I was a kid without a Dreamcast (and my parents were clear: ‘No way we are getting one’). Luckily, I got to play it through a close friend; and boy was Shenmue ahead of its time!

So years later, I decided to make the box anyway -> not a game, no software. Just a physical object that reimagines what the PC release could have looked like.

Every element was designed and assembled by me, from the cover illustration, to the box inserts, CDs, and items. I only created 10 boxes.

I've been working on this for about 6 months and I'd love honest feedback from the Shenmue community, people who actually know this game.

  1. Does it feel right? What feels out of place?
  2. Do you get why it exist?

Some have told me there was no point making this. I still disagree, and I think there are others out there who would feel like I do.

By the way, this is a fan-project. No software included.

Found these today at a thrift store

Ghost recon desert siege is sealed also and never been opened. Also don’t worry about the price they put on it. I removed that easily without damaging the box.
