Fryer64 | 68 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Sooooo. As it turns out I'm enjoying collecting, dare I say it.. More modern stuff? Nintendo ds? 3ds? Wii? Wii u? Heck even switch. Never thought I would have fun collecting modern. (still collect the classics) Most fun I've had collecting in years! Oh and gameboy. I've stayed away from anything gameboy for the last 15 years and now that is even fun to collect. I'm sure there are more like me? Thoughts? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptOut | 8,892 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I love collecting Xbox 360 games... If those can still be counted as modern like 15 years since launch, lol! 360 games are cheap and plentiful still, even finding sealed games to open and play you can still find them for like a few bucks! You get some real awesome gameplay for your money too, all the biggest and best games of that generation are present and correct on 360, from your GTA's to your Bioshocks, your Halos to your Forzas, it's all on there!

I figure one day I'll be able to add the pokemon games but that is 100% a seemingly bad idea right now. Unless I get lucky , (Cib collector) and I find one super cheap which isnt likely lol. Used to do just do 64 and was getting bored and felt a similar way when I first started collecting nes and snes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could realistically complete the library within the next 2 years or so from finding games in the wild minus about 6 games I would have to get from Ebay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Um... so DO IT!!! 360 is an awesome system if you can find a reliable machine! My advice would be to buy some NOS of either the E or S model system, preowned is a HUGE gamble on 360s.

I'd say it's worth about 7 out of ten. Decent game, fun, but a little simplistic when compared to other Star wars shooters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docile tapeworm | 4,204 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 i scored a nice xbox 360 lot at a yard sale once. $50 w/30+ games, hunting games, cod....a few $10 titles...it was the loud big one. a controller and hook ups....i sold it all. i tried to play it i even had a few shooters and fighting games. i just sold it to buy nintenders though. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docile tapeworm | 4,204 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 it seemed like a good system though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docile tapeworm | 4,204 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) i cant find them anymore...not even games. they use to be everywhere. every $1 that i havent spent, instead passing on buys, no matter what the price, i would bet tuned to be a good deal...a steal today. edit: now everybody wants $100 for a xbox or ps2. i would pass on $25 consoles and $5 games...

Ive had a Star Wars edition slim model hooked up for many years, since the day it was released infact. I have hardly ever powered it on, but if we push each other enough, maybe we can both finish out the library soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 4,980 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I collect for anything of the era that belongs to CRTs. Basically 2003 and earlier. But then there is the Switch. I enjoyed the DS/3DS and I want to get the Nintendo staples on those systems that I don't have. That's mostly a bunch of Metroid stuff and some Mario games.

Strange | 1,702 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 The DS is an interesting system to collect for, both culturally/historically and gameplay-wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3quit4s | 4,127 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) I bought alot of x360 and ps3 in the beginning because it was cheap and super available. I cleaned house on a FYE that was going out of business and got a lot of 75-90% off. Ah the days when $50 got a bunch of games and not one or two NES or SNES games lol Edited May 27, 2021 by a3quit4s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californication | 1,490 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I used to think the Genesis was a pos. Used to think that if I didn't need multiple games in the same genre. Used to think that clone games were silly and it was better to play the original. Dead Cells and Enter the Gungeon changed my opinion for the better on generated levels. Hollow Knight, Salt and Sanctuary, and Blasphemous have changed my opinion for the better on Metroidvanias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inzoreno | 102 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I collect the PS4 because it has such a wealth of the kind of stuff that I really like. Thanks to companies like Limited Run Games, I have a large buffet of strange indie games to play, as well as a decent amount of ports of retro games. Tie that together with heavy-hitter AAA-games and it's been an enjoyable ride, though I will say I am coming close to having everything I REALLY want aside from some of the expensive stuff.

Hammerfestus | 3,891 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) I started a Wii collection because I could find them at the thrift store. Before that I collected PS2 for a bit just because I was scoring lots of lots of 10 for $10 from some guy on eBay.
