What Are You 2013 Game Collecting Goals

[htimreimer]

get all the games in my wish list

[scott]

To have fewer games in my backlog than I do at the end of 2012

Never. Gonna. Happen.

Probably so...since it would require that I play MORE and buy LESS

(or were you talking about yourself)?

Yup, we are all in the same boat.

Haha; yeah!

Much as I usually hate generalizations...this seems like a pretty safe one

1. Buy Super Mario Sunshine
2. Buy a lot of Sega Saturn games.
3. Get a few more Vectrex games (gosh they're expensive!)
4. The one thing that will occupy me this year is my goal to import a lot of Saturn SHMUPS.

For my personal collection:
1. To play some of the games that I haven't played through yet. I am thinking about just  setting a timer for 15 minutes each day and picking a random title off the shelf.
2. To get more of my systems in a "ready to play" state. I used to have a switchbox setup with 8 different consoles ready to go, but I ended up getting rid of the furniture that all of that was on, and that TV broke...
3. To sell all my extras--two big boxes full of games and controllers to sell!
4. To get boxes for my loose Genesis and SMS games because... well... it's nice to have all those guys in their little plastic homes.

For my FEMICOM collection, the two things I really, really hope to get this year are the rest of the Casio Loopy game library, Casio Loopy peripherals, and a Lady Cassette Vision. Lofty, lofty goals, but hey, you never know! Some girly, '80s-era LCD handhelds from Japan would be nice, too.

Will you be adding these to your "Sell-List" here...or can you link us to these treasures(?) once you've sorted everything out?!

[redblaze57]

main goal: to find a Sega CD model 1 so it doesn't look like a tumor on my genesis

other than that my only real goals are to increase certain collections like my saturn & Wii U, and also to knock off a few of my most wanted games like Fire Emblem, legacy of kain: Blood Omen, & Arc Rise Fantasia.

I am currently in the process of adding them all to my Sell List, and I'll probably make a thread once they're all sorted and ready to sell or trade. It's a mix of NES, SMS, PC, GBA, N64, PS1, GC, and Wii stuff. Can't remember what all is in there but I'm fairly certain OoT and TwiPri are in the mix.

Oh, this is sort of a collecting goal:
Fix my Vectrex controller so that I can actually start getting games for it. Sadly buying a working controller isn't an option unless I want to spend more on a controller than I spent on the console.

My main goal is to not lose my house this year. If everything goes right in February, that will be a success. We will see.

In the meantime, my gaming goal is to get Suikoden II and Ni No Kuni. Thats it for now. Im not sure what will follow in the future.

Geez that sucks, I hope everything works out. Keep us in the loop!

if you have the soldering skills and parts you be able to fix it also this may help you http://www.playvectrex.com/shoptalk/vecjoyrepair/vecjoyrepair_f.htm and http://www.playvectrex.com/shoptalk_f.htm

There are a few games I want to buy, but I don't have any goals more lofty than that.

[stethebubble]

complete as many of my games as i can.
also buy any systems i don't currently own (atari Jaguar is high on my want list.)

I have always wanted to find a Jaguar in the wild but the only ones I've seen have been GROSSLY over priced
