As for collection goal, I'll be honest and say it will probably involve me downsizing considerably. Having gone all out on the 52 Games challenge the past couple of years has really shown to me that I don't really like most of the games that I have. I've also fallen onto into the convenience trap where I'm much more likely to just play games on my computer than fiddle around on a console. Part of that reason is the unreliability of my AVRs, they aren't working properly anymore thus I can't play games on them. Also my life is going in a different direction and I haven't really been playing anything. I played Diablo III last night for a few hours and that was the first time in exactly 6 months that I played a game. I'm still not counting MLM because that's more of a project.

Speaking from experience, I have no regrets downsizing over the last few years. Downsizing has made me appreciate what I did end up keeping even more and also freed up a decent amount of space. In a weird sort of way, it made me also enjoy games more since it helped me refocus on the games I actually wanted to play versus the games I wanted to own. I still really care about physical ownership of my games, but at least with retro games, I use ODEs and flashcarts most of the time out of convenience. But yeah, I definitely have been somewhat disenchanted with collecting for a while now.

I am focused on getting more N64 games. I have 180ish out of 296. now I have a 64DD too, but i lack the Retail version. I really want to get a whole set of each of these. Definitely not easy on the 64 DD. I have 8 out of the 10 disks already.

Wow, I always wondered: how are those DD-games? How do they play? Are they good? :o

They are pretty fun for the most part. The communications disc and randnet discs are the least usable discs. I like mario artist paint etc. Doshin 1 and sim city 64 need more Japanese to enjoy. I know a lot of basic Japanese. I wish I knew more though. All I need is doshin 2 and japan pro golf tour 64.
