Intro thread

[snyderec3]

Hello,

I've been lurking here for a little bit, using the site to track my collection. I figured maybe I'd try getting involved on the forum and see if I can learn a thing or two.

I'm pretty new to collecting, only deciding to expand my collection after realizing that my childhood collection of SNES games had a few rarities in it. I suppose I could have sold them off to make a few bucks, but there was too much nostalgia there to give up on them. Most of my stuff is pretty old as I picked up a Switch over the holidays, but before that, my last console was a SNES that I got in 1992. Because of the nostalgia for that system, SNES is what I'm primarily collecting for. I'm a long ways off, but my end goal is to have a complete North American collection of SNES titles. There's a lot of them, and some of them are terribly expensive, so I don't expect it'll be a quick collection, but I like to have a goal in mind.

hello and welcome to vgcollect happy hunting while building your collection

Hi, I'm bunnybear. Early 40s, married. Child. Been playing games on and off since I was probably six. Started with Apple IIe and then DOS games, but once I got a taste of console gaming, I never went back.

Although I remember playing on my friends' Atari 2600s, my oldest console is an NES. I had a small collection throughout the ages until more recently, when I got back into it and decided to go after all the stuff I missed. I still have a lot of NES, SNES, and DS titles to hunt down.

I just want a site to talk games and chill. I like the database, hoping I'll enjoy the forums as well.

welcome I've found everyone here to be very helpful and friendly hope you enjoy your time here as much as I do

Hello!

I am finally recovered from a broken wrist that stopped me gaming for 10 months (!) and want to start a small collection.

Based on it's exclusives, I just bought myself a PS4 Pro + PSVR and a handful of cheap games. It cost a bit, but I felt like I'd earned it this year!

I'll be adding games slowly as I finish them

Hey there, I stumbled upon this fine site through another forum and I hope to get to know a few fellow collectors with whom to talk retro games and trade a few duplicates .
As for myself, I am coming from Germany and currently 37 years old, started gaming with my dad in 1984 with the VCS 2600 (sweet memories of Space Invaders  ), and then went on to the C64, NES and SNES. I focus on collecting NES- and Famicom-games, but I also pick up Genesis/Mega Drive, SNES, Gameboy and Game Gear-games on my trips to flea markets and the like.

Besides that I collect Transformers, like to scribble caricatures, doing various art projects, listening to music (mainly Punkrock, Hardcore, Psychobilly, Rock N Roll, Singer/Songwriter-stuff) and playing music myself (bass guitar). So well, hope it‘ll be a fun time on here.

Hi everyone.  I'm new to VGCollect.  Decided on making a digital inventory of my game collection so I can keep track of what I own and don't own as I'm starting to expand my collection.  Feel free to check out what I own.  I got quite an interesting collection.  Looking forward to getting more games!

Welcome aboard, Austin! I'm also semi-new to the forum, so always good to see a fellow budding collector! I'll give you a follow - you already have some great titles in your collection, so looking forward to seeing it expand
