Collectors, what do you collect?

[Bonestorm]

I collect for pretty much everything. I was really into the Wii U when it was current and I still do pick up some games for it when I find them cheap, but most recently I've been picking up quite a few PS3 games. A few titles I bought recently that I've never played before were Beyond: Two Souls, Dragon Age: Origins, Final Fantasy XIII-2, LittleBigPlanet 2, The Saboteur and Shadows of the Damned.

Awesome man! Huge fan of Black Isle and BG in particular. I just found the BG2 CDs for the mac recently, was very happy about that one.

Please dont. Dust cripples me, lol. I spend a lot of time dusting! I shampoo the carpets once a month and have a few air purifiers, but IT NEVER GETS ANY BETTER! lmao

I've never been too big a stickler on complete games. I figure I'll grab what I see now and if down the road I find a better package then I can trade or sell my incomplete find, lol.

Yeah prices are getting nuts all across the board and even finding things in the wild is getting rare. But still, it's a fun day with family or friends, hitting the local spots. It was only a year ago when I found 3 boxed n64 mem cards, boxed rumble pack and a sealed pokemon snap. Spent like 16 bucks that day at a store I never found anything else than sports games at (Idaho Youth Ranch ftw).

I've been trying to gather up everything I can get related to Baldur's Gate's original releases, though I'm not a dedicated collector per se (e.g. looking to grab things strictly in mint condition).

I collect rare or obscure old PC games (Big box era and before). Games lost in the sands of time of the PC gaming renaissance that was America in the 1990's.

I want to start a youtube channel where I get these working on modern systems and then play and review them, but, If I had that much time id already be doing it.


Yeah, like so many media before it, games are becoming uncollectible.

I know what you mean! Do you watch LGR on YouTube? Everytime he covers something from the 90s it hits me right in the nostalgia.

A lot of dust.

Wowsie!, neat design!

Games I at least somewhat am interested in, I mean I won't buy games of genres I simply dislike (like sports sims) just for collection's sake, I only have some from game bundles that I bought for other games.

I collect card or cartridge-based games, as most physical games seem to be incomplete these days. I've a decent switch collection that is coming along nicely, and I have high hopes for the future of the console.

I've been collecting since I was about 12/13?
I've amassed a bunch of stuff from 70's computers, Zx Spectrum, Amstrad, ataris and a batch of old plug-in units.

As such, I also grew into the normal scene of all the classic consoles and handhelds. The market is pretty pricey these days, so I rarely pick up stuff...plus I kinda ran out of room!

This is some of my collection I have set-up ^^

However, with modern systems I am increasingly wary of games that are physical in name only like THPS 5 was.
