Hooked on

Dang, nice list Reed. Some awesome bands there!

For me I'd say between 20 - 30 bands. Most recent was the August Burns Red, Killswitch Engage and Light the Torch tour that I have been waiting since 2020 to atttend. Gosh darn it, was it awesome! To see Howard and Jesse duet together has made my lifetime complete really. Other bands on top of my head, All That Remains, Linkin Park, Pantera, Disturbed, Born of Osiris, Make Them Suffer, Code Orange, Between the Buried and Me, Buckethead, Dragonforce, Emmure, The Devil Wears Prada, Blink 182, Chelsea Grin, Nothing More, Palisades, Alter Bridge, Metallica, Megadeth, Breaking Benjamin so many more... oh and Killswitch Engage I have seen them 6 times now. Just waiting for a Times of Grace tour now for the new album.

Van's slip on shoes. Currently have 135 different pairs and a few doubles on some that are soon have to be thrown away. However, I wear most of them since they are meant to be worn after all! Only a few like the original Metallica and Super Mario Bros. I keep as never worn/new. Also collect fossils, meteorites, and dinosaur eggs.

A house in our neighborhood had 248 offers and sold over $101k asking. Yes, 248 offers. On Saturday and Sunday was open house and around 50-60 cars crowded everywhere. Had 906 watchers too on Zillow. Just 3 days and it was off the market. That is what made me realize this is not a good time at all to buy so I'll just wait for now. Trying to sell the house and move to closer to my business as right now I am renting a "work" apartment so I don't have to drive 45 minutes everyday to work. It's a complicated situation...

So curious who are the lucky ones that got Pokemon Dash not for resale into their collection if you care to share. Been keeping track of the sales and boy the market is hot for it as expected. Was great while it lasted being the only one for a looong time owning Pokemon Dash not for resale for so many years. Really thought it was a prototype, but now it is confirmed that it's just a demo that for some reason is incredibly rare ( and also have been only been found outside of North America despite it being a USA demo). So far I believe 4 have been sold so plus mine there are 5 out there. Who knows now maybe there is a stockpile of them hidden somewhere. Time will tell!

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 special edition, exclusive to the Nintendo shop announced. Don't like the sound of the exclusive part, but guess we will see.

Bump, just need ONE more to complete the GBA set. Man, I hope this will be the year!

Yay!! I'm shocked it took so long. Thank you.

...and yes, Google sucks (dealing with my own problems now lol)

From your list, I would choose Zelda Ocarina of Time. However in reality, it would actually be neither for me. Favorite would be Donkey Kong 64 followed by Paper Mario.

Crossed over 1100 games

That first page may need some updating there @Reed Rothchild

I am a little over 900 now. Just can never catch up LOL!

Got every single release from LRG for the Switch so far and I truly love the KO edition the most, which I already had a feeling I would when I first saw the artwork. It's so dang neat! The wait was insane though.

For the 2 16 bit Xmas games, I've actually been keeping track for a while. They sometimes go for between $100 to $200 in auction and sometimes a little over $200. Never seen it higher than $300 recently for either one. Hope that can help you at least with those games. So like a price range of $150 to $250 for those.

This was a while, but since I've been MIA on this site, here it is. Thought I'd never get this since it has gone up so much, but was able to get it much lower than market value (it is factory sealed) Crazy fact though, this almost got lost, because it was delivered to the wrong address. Thankfully, the person returned it and it got delivered to me. I had a panic attack probably for that one whole day lol.

One of my all time favorites for N64. Absolute killer game.

...wow thought this site was gone. Finally found it with that extra s. Bump this up.

Asking here because I contacted him about buying a Japanese NFR game and haven't heard anything back since May. If anyone knows of any other way to contact him please let me know if you dont mind.

I know him on Facebook. He is in the Video Game Kiosk & Display Collectors group posting time to time there. Same name as his first and last name (Jaxs Box). If you have Facebook let me know and I can get you into the group.

Uhhh hate when a seller cancels an order because it sold too low in auction then lie stating I wanted to cancel. My fault for not looking at this feedback. Negative feedback going over a year of this so I should have expected. Just wish eBay will ban those types so time isn't wasted.

Thanks 'Twizer! I've never told you this, but it was the semi-viral pictures of your Nintendo collection from 2013-2014 or so that really inspired me to take my collecting to another level. I remember looking at your walls of games and thinking: Amazeballs

Guess things are coming full circle!

That's cool! I had a feeling it did inspire you as your collection reminded me of Twizers so much! Well now you have inspired me to continue my goal. I starting to feel a bit overwhelmed now with so many Switch releases. Nope, I will continue to focus on it.

Thanks dude, super appreciate you saying so. And for sure I'll organize the collector's editions, I just can't think of how to organize them based on anything other than height/dimensions at the moment but I'm open to suggestions! The reason they're not in precise descending order of height row to row, is because there is one shelf in these IKEA Billy bookcases (the middle shelf) that is not moveable, it is fixed in place (you'll see a consistent middle row of shelves all lining up through the room while all the other shelves are all modular). Tough to "Tetris" things in there to A) Keep the shelves looking full without big gaps, and B) To keep order to things in the process! It's a struggle I tell ya!

Oh I think you misunderstood. I meant you already did find a way to organize them based on the looks. They are all lined up so well! Lol. For me I just can't find any way with my small space to display them. You nailed it! It is a struggle that's for sure with their such vast different sizes.

A deal for anyone looking for the Star Wars games and didn't get them from LRG

 

Wow that is crazy that works. Now I can cancel my orders from Amazon.

The Pokemon Dialga Switch Lite is up on Best Buy now. Only store pickup no shipping at the time of this post.

Edit: Now shipping available.

Pass for me. Was waiting for $10 or max $15, but $30 was too much for the current content. At least I won't have to go crazy after the N64 controller for now lol.

Just a heads up if you missed on preordering Metroid Dread Special. Was able to order one on the Best Buy app. On the website, no luck at all just says please wait forever. So, try it in the app.
