Maben:
Collect:
N64, Gamecube, Wii, PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360

Want to collect:
SNES

Don't collect:
Older consoles...the desire just isn't there, nor is the hassle of storage and such.  Also not a huge handheld fan, so I don't collect any handheld systems.  I still have my old GameBoy and GameBoy color though, with a few original GB games.

Non-Video Game stuff:
I recently got a "Vintage" line Sorry! game from Hasbro.  It's a cool package, comes in a wooden box and the whole game has a unique "aged" look to it.  It also has a book style spine and is nicely stored on a shelf.  I am hoping to get a few more from the collection to have together, most specifically Stratego. (http://www.amazon.com/B000AFDIDG-Library-Stratego-Game-Set/dp/B000AFDIDG)  Unfortunately, a lot of them have been discontinued and were only sold in Target, so they aren't easy to find these days.

I am "obsessed" (according to my fiancee) with Magic: The Gathering.  I probably should sell a bunch of cards to be honest lol.  I love playing it though.  It's immensely fun, strategic, and is different every time.

I also have a small collection of Dr. Pepper cans.  I love the soda and a couple years ago I started collecting unopened cans, I snag one of each kind I find that is unique, but not the Diet kinds.  (For example: Avengers, Indiana Jones, Throwback, Football, etc.)
lcvolt:
i collect all nintendo stuff. however i do not own a gamecube, only play my GC games on the wii. only collect DS and 3DS on the handheld part. sega genesis, ps1 and ps3.

on games, i only collect what i like, else, my collection would be endless, and i think this is a good way to narrow it. however, i think this is how collectors start, so who know s maybe i'll start to collect stuff i dont like anyway.

Magic cards have been off and on for me, Used to be a hardcore player/collector years back but slacked off and sold most my stuff. Now I am slowly getting it back
SnesGuy:
  I collect pretty much anything cartridge based. Preferably NES or newer. (for reasons mentioned previously)
If I saw a Atari, Intellivision, etc. for cheap I would probably pick it up though.

  I really dislike disc based consoles. That being said, my collection has branched into trying to own every Sega home console.
 So I own a Dreamcast and recently traded for a Saturn. (I'm only missing Master System and Sega CD)
