Forgot all about this thread. I need to post my stuff soon.

yeah, would also like to post my stuff but it's all in storage and I don't want to take out everything to take pictures lol

Stopped by a random vintage toy store this weekend. I was pretty shocked to see a majority of stuff was retro games and I mean a lot of them. The games were not in any particular order and stacjked on top of each other everywhere. Apparently they were forced to consolidate 2 stores into one recently. They had all N64 sport games 3 for $ 10 and all Genesis Sports games for $ 1 each. I got all of this for $ 40 total. My wife and I are going to go back next weekend to get more of the sports game I don't have.

Thank you so much!

We are actually going to rent a bigger house next year since we are running out of room for all the stuff we keep hoarding.

He was a massive Sega fan whilst Ibwas Nintendo, when we came together and merged collections, it got a bit out of hand.

I think everyone needs a hobby room!

I have given up on our local Goodwill. Went in twice recently. Nothing at all.

I did stop by my favorite pawnshop this weekend and picked up Oregon Trail for the Wii for $2. It's valued at $45 or so. So not too bad.

Had no idea this was even a Wii game.

Thank you

They act as constant reminders of how me and my husband could look if we stopped shovelling junk food in our faces.

Got lucky and picked this up today off of Craigslist far cheaper than what I would get it for on eBay (some people just don't know what they're selling on Craigslist). Pretty clean box, tested and worked, console was immaculate. The games come boxed, some are still in plastic. The loose games were Shadowman, Indiana Jones, Resident Evil 2, and Conker's Bad Fur Day.

$150 for all of this.

People that keep their games in this condition after 20 years are the real MVPs

[latverian41]

I had my nes from 1985 still in the box with the Styrofoam and everything

I bought my Dreamcast in launch day 9/9/1999 as well. I won the pick there lottery the night before 322.

I always kept boxes for my stuff

I lost everything so I don't like thinking about it and I no longer think of the past

I'm.more concerned with what I can acquire in my future not what I've lost in my past

How the f do you even play that on the wii? I’m so out of the loop with the wii because it seemed so gimmicky to me when it came out.

Apparently my wife has a Ps2 and a Wii at her moms that she is going to give me.

[SirDerpington]

tfw I recently sold a sealed Super Metroid for a stupid sum of money. Sad to see it go but I'd much rather have the money. Like seeing other people's cool collections.

Mirin' collections.

If I could get top dollar for a game or console, I would sell too.

I lost my copy of Super Metroid. It was just the cartridge, but I am a Metroid and Zelda fanboy.

I never played the Wii much. I have two of them modded, but still do not play them. The idea of the Oregon Trail 'make-over' is intriguing though. I especially like the hunting aspect on the Wii version.

The hunting aspect makes a lot more sense in general. It actually is a pretty unique take on it.

Just bought a bunch of battery contacts, buttons, rubber button pads, etc for the GB, GBC, GBP, GBA, etc.

Also gonna bid on some junk Gameboys (DMG, GBC, and GBP) to fix up.

[WarMachineYeti]

I've been organizing my collection, I recently dug everything out. I have a lot more than I realized.

Those Gamecubes doh. I have two GC's. I think that I may try to put a mod chip in one of them.

Mirin' your collection. I love seeing Sega Genesis boxes, I guess because I had a larger Genesis collection when I was 10 than any Nintendo consoles.

[Chairman7w]

Some Retro gaming going on here, but it's more my Chill Room, with all my books, games, etc.

I spotted your Topps Star Wars Card books. I have the Return of the Jedi and Garbage Pail Kids books.

How hard is it to collect for Sega Saturn? I assume it must be somewhat comparable to Sega Master System but I might be wrong

I’m trying figure out what system I want to focus on next

There weren't that many games for it so it wouldn't be too hard to collect. A lot of the miscellaneous games are pretty cheap on eBay, with the exception of a few imports and any of the Panzer Dragoon game that are super expensive.

I only ever known of 1 person that had a Sega Saturn when it was released back in the day. After the Genesis, Sega would release there systems at all the wrong times. I remember being like a 9 year old and scratching my head over what they were doing.

I went to that vintage toy store again and the guy gave me some sweet deals. I got 24 games for $ 30. I am definitely going to keep checking that store out over the next couple of months. Everything is below pricecharting prices right now.

[devin45k]

Figured out my favorite place to pickup games is closing at the end of May. They have to get rid of everything before they close so I am going to get some great deals. I’ll have to pickup a Sega Saturn and Alf on the master system before they close.

I got all of this today for only $80. I could not believe there was a Razor Scooter game made. I had to get it LMAO

[CrewsBrah]

recently picked up an Intellivision...anyone here have game suggestions?

[ChelshireCat]

Oh jeez, my collection has expanded some since those photos were taken in March!

Reminder to myself that we are saving up for a house so our hoarding needs to stop for a while. Sad times.
