    Zelda CIB Collection Complete!

    in Show Off

    Posted · Edited by yo1dog

    Just completed by collection of all NA Zelda games, CIB, first release (no Classic/Select re-releases). I am so excited!

    Am I missing anything? I know there was a WW HD Amiibo bundle similar to TP HD. Would love to add that, but I'm not trying to get every variant.

    I started it years ago but put it on hold when prices started going up... I thought they would go back down. If I had just kept going I would have spent 1/2 as much.

    Spent just over $3k including shipping and taxes. I bought everything on this list over the past Month or so. I was a little impatient so I didn't get the best deals on everything. Still, I spent nearly $500 less compared to PriceCharting.com prices.

    WTB: Common Zelda (mostly CIB)

    in Buying

    Posted · Edited by yo1dog

    My collection is complete. Thanks everyone!

     

    I have traded/sold/lost many games over the years that I wish I hadn't now that I have kids and want them to experience some of the most impactful games of my childhood. Years ago I was just starting to fill the holes in my childhood Zelda collection when this nostalgia + speculative market bubble started driving crazy prices. I've been waiting for things to become reasonable again, but that does not seem to be happening anytime soon. Returning now, I am very sad to learn the fate of NintendoAge, but it seems this is the new home for collectors.

    Anyway, I collect for play/experience so I don't need items in perfect condition. While I prefer CIB, I don't really care about extra inserts if they are not related to the game (I want manuals, maps and artwork, don't care about ads). Prefer original releases over re-releases (Select, Classic Series, Player's Choice, etc.) While I am not particularly interested in collecting multiple copies/variants of the same game I do enjoy remakes and ports. Interested in NA releases only.

    TL;DR: Here's what's at the top of my list (all NA and CIB) :

    • Minish Cap
    • Wind Waker HD
    • The Hyrule Fantasy: Zelda no Densetsu (Famicom Disk)
    • Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition
    • Hyrule Warriors
    • Link's Awakening
    • Oracle of Ages
    • Link's Awakening DX
    • The Legend of Zelda (GBA NES Classic Series)
    • Hyrule Warriors Legends
    • Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer
    • Soul Calibur II
    • The Legend of Zelda (Gold Cart)
    • Zelda II (Gold Cart)
    • A Link to the Past
    • Master's Quest
    • Skyward Sword - I'm holding out for the 25th anniversary edition box with the gold controller.
    • Ocarina of Time - CIB or box and manual only
    • Majora's Mask - CIB or box and manual only
    • Oracle of Seasons
    • Phantom Hourglass
    • Spirit Tracks (CIB or box and manual only)
    • Collector's Edition (GameCube promo)
    • Twilight Princess (GameCube)
    • Ocarina of Time 3D - I own digital only.
    • Link's Crossbow Training
    • A Link to the Past & Four Swords
    • Zelda II (GBA NES Classic Series)


    Thanks!
