DoctorEncore | 3,691 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Still whittling away at the NTSC NES CIB set. I decided to lower my standards just a tad and I now count games that don't have their poster as complete. I'll circle back around to the extras some day. With my new criteria I'm down to my last 25 or so items which includes mostly CIB games and some manuals/carts. I hope to finish sometime this year.

doner24 | 1,195 Moderator · Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Currently trying to wrap up a Gamecube set. Need about 80 more. Also trying to get the posters for my SNES set that I don’t have and finish up the Million Seller CIB subset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Bogomil | 815 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Selling. It's slow going (listing) but my stuff is consistently moving with no major issues over the last number of months. Was able to sell a few things locally but have stopped for the time being on that. Haven't bought anything in a while now besides Animal Crossing for my wife.

RegularGuyGamer | 2,012 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I was after the standard release Gameboy pockets for the last year and after recently completing them I just don't have the desire to go for the limited edition colors. Maybe eventually but not now. I'm at a crossroads bc I've stalled on both 3ds and switch as well. I considered going for some of my Gameboy favorites CIB but Gameboy is so hot right now. Instead, I've been going for Dragon Ball Z animation cels.. I have 2 more of Frieza on the way. I want a nice Goku and Vegeta to round out the set, but of course the the most pricy. Maybe a Cell saga Gohan and Android 17. I'm holding out on getting proper frames until I get a couple more characters. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLDSKULL | 33 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 My current collection goal is to bring that my collection to the essentials. In the last years I sold all my collection except was related to NES, SNES, GENESIS, Turbografx, GB, GBC, GBA ... damn !! I'm have vivid Vietgam memories here !! I just decided to keep my focus on my first loves the 8 and 16 bits and even those collections got trimmed down of hundred of games. Then, I started to do list of what I want on each of these systems and I try hard to shorten those lists from time to time. The most definitive list I have is the NES one and as I'm into the homebrews, the focus of my purchase is mainly on that console because that list is growing up out of homebrews and I would like one day to be up to date and only have to ''worry'' on the new games coming up. Also, I started 2 years ago to buy some retrogamecases.com for my NES and SNES essentials. The look is neat of the shelves and want more of those too.

Homeboyks | 30 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Next goal is to aim for the Dreamcast set. SNES is always on the back burner but just too expensive to actively try for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Jimmer | 234 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I own most of the games carts i want for my collection. my focus has shifted to sealed nes/snes/n64 and for 2020 my target is to make a big push for my mint/high grade sealed snes collection with hopefully some high grade nes/n64 sprinkled in between :).

Cepp | 34 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 It's not a large goal but I almost have all 4 Dragon Warrior games on NES. Just need the third game now and I'm sorted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8bitsupremacy | 208 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Still going for that NES full cart set, it's a goal I've kinda set for myself since the late 90s. I've gone for it, gave up on it, and gone for it again...I got kind of lazy with the final few as they are nearly impossible to find but a year or so ago I actually landed a Hot Slots cart and it reignited the flame to forge on and finish, eventually... Bubble Bath Babes Cheetahmen II Myriad 6-in-1 Peek-a-Boo Poker (I have a promising lead on this actually) Stadium Events Missing those carts only...I have about 500+ boxed NES games and I would gladly sacrifice a sizable chunk of cardboard to someone who's looking to maybe trade away that terrible turd of an unlicensed game for some quality licensed cardboard? I know that's a long shot but I'm dead serious, and I have some juicy cardboard for the cib collectors out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think its happening soon but if you see something... Lites were in stock when I went to Target a month ago but I want a full one. And the Lite colors are ugly! I am kicking myself for not getting one sooner, oh well. Some people think a Pro is in the works. I don’t, but whenever they get production going again, I’ll take it.

315retro | 8 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Over many years I've narrowed my focus - I keep all NES games. I'm not looking for a full set but if I accidentally get most of the way there I'll finish it. I'm only at 214 on that. SNES I would keep *most* of. While I have no nostalgia for the games (skipped nes to ps1) I very much enjoy the 16 bit asthetic. I honestly don't have time for retro rpg, and sports games are a pass but I like cheesy licensed games and bad platformers. N64 done - don't even want half of what I've got. GameCube wii wiiu done done done. Genesis done. Not chasing anything except snes and nes actively. All can wait for yardsale magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
