I definitely can't understand this mindset.  I hope that they make as many digital only games into physical as possible.  In a perfect world all digital only games would be given a physical option.

It's just hard to keep up sometimes with there being a release almost weekly.

Exactly. I'm not going for a full set but if I was the games from LRG etc would be the only games I'd be buying on release. I've picked up so many great titles at eb sales that are like quarter of the cost.

Yep. So far I've gotten every single release from LRG for the Switch. I only missed out on two which was Transistor Collectors and somehow I missed on ordering the Star Wars Jedi double pack, even though I did get all the other Jedis. Had to pay more than double for those on eBay. Drives me nuts that LRG has to do so many releases though they really are milking us dry.

Not super expensive, but a CIB copy is more expensive that original MSRP.

For some reason, I always knew that one would start to get expensive than MSRP one day as back even still for print, it was already limited on eBay. I got two copies from Toys 'R Us clearance and just put them on the shelf thinking of selling one of them, but never did. So, now have two sealed copies. Guess can use one for trade for something I'm missing now.

Btw, for a game to get now, I'd get Dreamworks Spirit. Have a feeling that one is gonna be hard to find later too.

Thought it would be worth a share. At last, a very minty Gold Pokemon NFR came to surface and I nabbed it. The Pokemon Game Boy/Color NFR set is complete! 7 years long. Now for 2 more for the Gameboy Advance which are now heavy hitters as of this year, so got some saving up to do lol.

What did it sell for? Lol

I saw it earlier for $2k so guess it sold at $2k. I think it's well worth as I even told myself if I had $2k to spare I'd get it.

Just reached over 600 Switch games today! I probably have around 700 though if you include other regions, which I am not really tracking just getting what I like. Once I organize the collection I'll post pics. It's been a wild ride so far. Today's pickup was Sonic Colors so I'll be happy to pop that in over the weekend.

Whoops too late. My vote would have been Cranberries - Zombie so it would have been a tie again.

As Sapphire is one of the rarest GBA NFRS right now, you now even have a current one of a kind variant of it. Congrats and thanks for sharing! There are truly many out there. Like this year I've found another new DS back sticker only not for resale with a unique code and few years back I was able to get Pokemon Dash not for resale just out of nowhere that was never known to exist and seems like I'm the only person with it. There are definitely more out there that have yet to be discovered and probably in someone's hands right now and have no idea. It's a really enjoyable category to search and collect for.

Anyone going to PAX can get us some of those River City Girls variant. Gosh wish I could go but its unbelievably far.

Just a few seconds in for me and can't continue. Not for me at all.

That is insane. I have an extra sealed copy of it because I accidentally bought it twice.

Yeah, it's mostly from what I found, it being a Switch exclusive and since it is out of print, it's been starting to climb in price. If it wasn't Switch exclusive, it would probably not hold interest since it really isn't anything special.

Tomorrow is preorders for Mary Skelter Finale Collectors.

Another one that looks like it will climb in price is Diablo III.

Welcome back to the fun. Yep, that's why I do what I can so that I don't have to sell my collection for any reason. It's even getting harder to find some modern stuff now for good deals. Hope the best to your progression of your collection!

Another Boxster! Heck yeah!

And hell yeah on the Lotus! You going 4 or 6 cylinder? What color? I'm thinking about upgrading my FRS to the Emira...

V6 manual! It must be a manual when it comes to Lotus. Here is my spec. Only difference not pictured is the black pack which I'll have added later. I was late on the deposit so I won't be able to get a first edition. It's fine.

Got a lot of vehicles but here are my two main ones.

Porsche Boxster

Jeep Wrangler

Also have a deposit on a Lotus Emira for 2023. SO STOKED!

Hooked on the new Times of Grace album (side project of Killswitch Engage by Jesse and Adam). Probably my favorite band ever with their first album, but dig this second one too.

Some my favorites.

Just found this. Looks like you are right Mr. CIB. Was released in Malaysia. The odd thing is, the green and yellow was sold there too apparently.... but both do have Malaysia codes on the back, just that ESRB logo is confusing.

Hmm...I could have sworn I saw an ESRB rated bundle with pink and yellow joy cons. There's a stock image for this Walmart listing:

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Super-Mario-Party-Neon-Pink-Neon-Yellow-Joy-Con-Nintendo-Switch/154129718

Also found this with a bit of searching:

Whoa... Nice find dude! So unexpected. Looks like gotta dig deeper now to see if any collector actually has the pink variant in hand.

I received around 15 packages over the last of Switch stuff so haven't had a chance to open all, but these two are my recent opens. So this Mario Party bundle on the right I didn't even know existed until someone told me in a Facebook group. Might be hard to find later thinking it was an exclusive somewhere. Seeing some sell for nearly $400, getting one for $150 felt right. (only the ESRB/NA version right now. There are a ton of Japan ones on eBay.)

Bumpy. Will $200 shipped for one entice anyone?

Let me say collecting for the Switch has become pretty crazy with so many games already going for over $100 and are not even limited runs. Like if you told me my new Ultra Street Fighter 2 can sell for $150 now, I'd call you a nut. Good luck to you all full-set collectors for the future.

bat-shnat crazy

I thought $785 was the end point not too long ago. There seems no stopping with this one.

Welp, knew not being a Costco member was going to haunt me on this and knew it would get to crazy prices one day. If anyone happens to have an extra one of the Mario Rabbids Gold for the Switch that they will sell to me to help make my NA (ESRB) Switch collection complete one day, please let me know. Can trade for it too. Thank you!

So bummed I missed out on Transistor Collectors edition. I had it in cart and payment was ready and after clicking the final button, it said sold out. :( Arghh..it's the only Switch collectors I am currently missing. Thought it was my chance, but guess not.
