use ebay to your advantage look for the cheapest listings

[DragonIIDX]

Forgot to mention these. You should also get Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, Conker's Bad Fur Day, and LEGO Racers is a pretty fun racing game. Never heard of Blast Corps so I wouldn't know about that one! =P

This is from a year ago and doesn't include anything from my hyper buying spree in 2012, but it was the last time they were laid out like this so it's what you get

I guess if you're just looking for a list then backloggery would do: http://www.backloggery.com/dballin

It's not the most up to date or accurate thing in the world in terms of what I've beaten ever in my life, but yeah it's there.

[intensez]

wow that's an impressive collection. i always wanted to start collecting more for Genesis, considering I got one years back for a good price along with Sonic 1 to 3.

Just bought Earthbound today.. my pocket is on fire x________x

[DragonIIDX]

Yeah. The cheapest used one on Amazon is $218, and the last new one is $6,000!

[dballin4]

I feel bad for people who are trying to collect for NES and SNES because it's so insanely expensive right now. My love of boxes and manuals have kept me away from Nintendo stuff unless I find them locally for good prices.

This reminds me of the time my uncle got dumped by his girlfriend of 5 years because of his addiction of collecting NES games.

i saved a small amount by making an offer for a copy on Ebay for $198. It got shipped today, so i'll be playing that $$

the snes library is only going to go up. super metroid, when i saw it in 2011 (already have this but making an example), was like $8 to $15. Now since november its around $40..

[dballin4]

I've found some pretty damn good deals even on ebay. Last one was my copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga CIB for $162 shipped. I celebrated that day for sure. A lot of my stuff has been purchased locally though. $8 for Saturn Bomberman? hell to the yes! I also own a lot of filler like various Maddens, but I was going for full sets until I started up school again.

My ex didn't make a huge deal about collecting even though she thought it was dumb. I thought owning 30 pairs of flip flops was dumb too so we had our differences lol

[DragonIIDX]

I also buy cheap at local places. I got Super Metroid a few months ago for $15 and haven't seen it again since. The place I go to is pretty good on prices. The most expensive game I've seen there was either FFII or III can't remember, but it was $30. The most I've paid for an SNES game was $25 for Donkey Kong Country 3 since that's the least common of the 3 that I've seen with the first one being $8 since I see it pretty much every time I go there. I also got the Mario All-Stars + World version since the individual versions are $20 by themselves, so I saved $20 there and also haven't seen that version since either.

[dballin4]

I got DKC 1-3 for $10 back in 2006 Most I've paid for SNES was probably Chrono Trigger CIB that I pieced together for around $70. Then a NM Super Metroid CIB for $60 that I got last year at MAGFest.

actually that version of the game is pretty rare. the super mario world + all stars, its worth anything from 25 to 40 lol

also look up fun 'n games for snes. i have NEVER seen that game before and its not really called r8 or w/e they call it

[DragonIIDX]

Just looked it up. It looks interesting... theres 2 on Amazon, both used. One is $75 and the other is $1,000!

[dballin4]

I've seen fun n games sealed for $30. Might be an R8, but nobody wants it so it's cheap. Rarity != pricey

[intensez]

the value of it is so mixed. i think it should be rarer but eh people only want the good games lol. i guess the old rule of supply and demand applies

ie earthbound being god damn $200 because everyone wants it, not because there's only two copies available

[DragonIIDX]

Exactly. Earthbound has sold 140,000 copies in the U.S. while Fun N' Games has only 2,000 copies made... Fun N' Games should be the one that's $200+ mainly because of it's low quantity. More popularity = higher price appearently?

[Senip]

People will always be more willing to pay higher amounts for great games.

I'm planning on buying a bunch of those universal cartridge boxes and printing covers off, I still wont have the manuals but at least I'll have those.

[DragonIIDX]

Yeah, it's pretty rare nowadays when SNES cartridges have the actual box with them. I actually did see Super Return of the Jedi and Super Tennis with the cases today when I looked at the media store. Of all the SNES games I have, only 1 has the original box and manual being Kirby Superstar but I ordered it from Amazon. I also saw Blast Corps for $2 at the store.

[intensez]

bump cuz finally i have this :')



and i made a backloggery
