I think I'm going to finally complete my Xbox 360 [EU] collection in terms of actual titles.

How many are left for you to reach this goal? Any plans to complete other Xbox libraries?

At the minute it seems to be around 200 left. Just been clicking refresh on Ebay for the last 5 days or so. Most of the local game shops don't have anything I need unfortunately.

I wouldn't mind eventually completing my Xbox one collection but I feel like that collection should take a back seat until they stop releasing for the console. I have a lot of the games but there are so many niche ones that release - it's hard to keep track.

I might eventually choose to try a base Xbox collection but it's something I wouldn't treat as seriously. I don't have any nostalgia for the console personally so just don't have any desire to collect for it.

Goals for 2025,

Complete PS3 set (10 left)

Attempt to finish PS1 longboxes (approx. 60 left)

Focus on the 50 or so more difficult PS2 titles I have left (hit list)...

(Not sure how to insert a pic into the body of this)

Love the display!

I'm trying to finish the original Xbox PAL collection, still a good few to collect.

I just realized I never set goals for 2024- whoops.

My goal for 2025 was to finish another set and I have already done that with my acquisition of Keio Flying Squadron to finish my Sega CD set so I guess my goal for this year is to finish another set!

Genesis- 13 left
32X- 2 left
Sega Master System- 1 left
Lynx- 9 left
Atari Jaguar CD- 1 left
N64- 25 left

I'd also love to acquire at least another 20-25 cib each of nes and snes to whittle my list down. And get my wishlist here down to under 75.  I know the majority on here are all about slowing down, purging, etc.. but I'm full steam ahead- I want it all!

I will also have some paternity leave this year so hoping I have some more time to game (after all parental responsibilities are handled- they may be up every few hours but there is also a lot of down time- babies sleep a lot...)

There's no way I can beat 52 games- I beat 12 last year- let's shoot for 20- that's a good stretch goal.

Beyond my goal to continually prune my current collection down, I only have one real collecting goal for 2025:


1. Add at least 10 Switch games from my want list: With the Switch in its twlight years, I've decided I'm going to actively pursue the 30 or so games on my want list that I don't yet own. Many of these are first party releases that I slept on for years after they came out, but some are on the more obscure side. I'll probably prioritize those more obscure releases since they likely have the greatest chance of becoming expensive and hard to find as time goes on.


I'm already 3 games into this goal this year. Things are looking good so far  8)
