Years ago, a series of unfortunate events (no pun intended) led to the liquidation of my original PlayStation collection. At the time, I had roughly 180 games, all purchased new and in mint condition. Just like I just took the plastic wrap off. Hot commodities like Tactics Ogre, Tomba 1 & 2 and Klonoa Door to Phantomile? I had 'em. Needless to say, I was gutted after my collection was gone.
BUT...I have vowed to rebuild, better than before. Many of the games currently in my collection, I didn't own that first time around. Some are great games that I missed. Others I got dirt cheap or through a trade. I'm not going to say that the Courier Crisis' or Hooters Road Trip's of my current collection are great. Of the 165 games in my PS1 collection currently, 94 were in my original collection.
Likewise, some of the games in my original collection weren't AAA material. I'm really not interested in getting every iteration of Cool Boarders again. I could also do without Star Wars Masters of Teras Kasi, Vs. and Theme Park. My intention is to get the remaining great games (IMO) that I originally owned, plus a few more I missed and in the end, I think I will have a better collection overall for it. Below, a list of all the games from my original collection I currently do not have. Strike-through for those I don't want again. LOL.
