@ Wiggy
My retro collection consists of a lot of lower quality games mostly because that's what I found around me. My first TV system was a PS2 so by the time I got into retro gaming on official hardware, I can ether buy games offline, or go to Tag Sales, Goodwill and other places. On the SNES I got if from a freind with DKC2 and Strike Gunner STG, I eventually found Super Mario World, Super Mario Kart, Megaman X Battletoads in Battlemainiacs, But I also bought some crap, Toys and Doomsday Worrier, but some are not to bad, Aero The Acrobat, Lagoon, Gods.
        My NES colection has a lot of crap, Karate Champ, Sessame Street, 2 Phisher Price gams, NARC, Total Recal, Home Alone 2, Same with my Gameboy collection, Quest for Camalot, Spy vs Spy, Toy Story 2, Dragon Tales, Blues Clues, Tomb Rader, Shrek fighter and racer, Disney Racer, Wheel Of Fortune, The Fidgets(my first game)

Whops hit enter,  ;D

But as I was saying, Some buys where fun, Some of the games I got from a old video store had their boxes and your only knowledge being the back of the box and the art, its fun to just see what you get. The most deceptive was Castlequest, The game is quite diferent from the box depiction. Another fun one was Karate Champ, I got it from Goodwill, and when I got home and was cleaning the games I got my friend called and wanted to come over and when he got here I hooked the NES up and went into 2 Player mode and the look on our faces when the one punch ended the round. And another was Robopon for GB, I got it from Gamestop and it had a long black cart an a weird name, and its basically Pokemon with robots.

I have the same policy about old systems actually. While I have some NES carts, and a (broken) NES Console, everything before the NES is irrelevant in terms of owning.

Also, SEGA systems... I had some good times with the Dreamcast back in the early 2000's, but once the Sonic Adventures were ported to Gamecube, I no longer had a reason to own one, and I still  don't. SNES and N64 are enough retro for me(Oh and Gameboy as well). I kinda wish I had gotten to play Sonic Jam back in the day, but it's moot now since I got the Mega Collection for Gamecube in 2002.

It's funny how the Gamecube basically makes the Genesis & Dreamcast pointless. Skies of Arcadia, Sonic Adventure 1+2, Sonic Mega Collection(Which has ALL Sonic genesis games). Whatever the Gamecube didn't have, it was either ported/got a sequel to on Xbox, or in the case of Power Stone, a collection for PSP.

And if you own a Wii it basically makes the Gamecube pointless as well (minus the Game Boy Player).
