Do you have games that don't consider a part of your collection?

Basically all my digital games. I have something like 200 games in my library on Steam, but I don't count those for my collection, since they aren't a physical item.

I also don't count most of the physical PC games I have. I have a CD binder full of loose discs cause I thought that was a great idea years ago (Saves space, sucks for collecting to not have the boxes lol), so I don't count those ones though I probably have a couple dozen games in there. I actually keep an eye out for those games when I'm out thrifting so that I can get them boxed and then add them to my collection properly.

I would also say anything disk related I don't have the case for. I have a couple Gamecube games in a case that I don't have boxes or manuals, so i don't count them. I count loose cartridges though.

I also don't include digital games and content, forgot to include that.

evilnick:
If I paid for it, or fully own it, it's a part of my collection.

The only stuff I don't consider are demos and temporary titles like PSN freebies on the PS3, PS4, and Vita. Once that subscription is gone, so are those games, so they are not part of my collection.

Tho I always buy physical games whenever there's the option, my digital games were probably the first thing I cataloged here. The console guys still don't have a good system like Steam to show you everything you own, so it's easy to forget you have something.

Probably the only things I don't catalog/count are PC games, because I consider myself a console gamer/collector.

I don't count doubles or label variations unless it's really different. For example I don't consider text labels and picture labels for 2600 games as different but weirdly, I will count obscure label variations such as zellers pinball or a taiwan cooper popeye cart even though they are the exact same game as the 2600 original.

Also, even though I have them cataloged here, I don't consider any of my modern stuff as part of my collection such as wii, ps3, or ds - to me they're still too new to be part of my retro collection but a few years down the road, they'll probably end up there.
