Well I have always said I wanted to collect every video game ever,of course I know I never will.Mostly I have nostalgia for Nes,Snes,Genesis,Dreamcast,Ps1,Ps2 and Xbox 360. These are the systems I want to find games for the most because their my favorites.Besides my principal goal being to play these games and have fun I also like the artwork and love to display them. |

In my case, I think collecting was an opportunity to own some of the things I used to dream about when I was a kid... |

As I've said a thousand times already, quality over quantity. |

At this point, Im just looking to have games that I truly enjoy and can see myself revisiting years from now which for the most part I have now. Anything that doesnt really fit that is gone. I'm no longer collecting for the sake of it like I used to. While I am adding, I am being calculated about what a buy now and not adding x game cuz its $5 and may possibly play it down the line as I feel I've reach a point where I dont want that anymore. |

90% of my collecting goals right now involve the following: - Sega Saturn (US and Japanese) - CIB N64 games - CIB SNES games - CIB Genesis games - New releases that interest me on the PS4 and Switch I've been collecting for so long and have owned so much stuff that there's not that much else that really interests me. Don't get me wrong, I love video games and my collection, however the allure of very rare games have diminished greatly. Pretty much unless it's genuinely a good game or it's a game I have some sort of personal connection to I'm not terribly interested in it. The other 10% of my collecting interests are an assortment of games on other consoles that I'd still like to own, but they are hardly a priority of mine. Eventually I'd like to play every game I own, and if I can't see myself doing that I really see no need to own the game. This was part of the reason (along with reason price spikes in retro games) that I downsized roughly 15% of my collection. Also sort of as a goal on mine I'd really, really like to get into collecting pinball machines and arcade cabs someday. I currently lack the space to do this, but if that ever changes you can bet I'll be at arcade auctions tracking down games like Virtua Fighter, Area 51, House of the Dead, and Top Skater. |
