Games gone missing!?

One of my biggest thrills from buying my own house was finally, FINALLY unpacking all of my games and cataloguing them. I have my whole collection on RFGeneration now, and I keep track of who borrows what (I let very little be loaned out unless it's a duplicate, but I do allow some of it to go).

I was actually pleasantly surprised to find games I didn't even realize I had when I finally unpacked -- FF7 and Xenogears for example. That was a nice little hundred dollar bill I didn't expect to find (metaphorically of course -- I do not sell games as a general rule, only when I get duplicates)

But yeah. Now I keep my games separated by system, alphabetical within each system. Things no longer go missing.

That's where I'm at now. Last house I owned was too small to have my games out, so they've been packed or stuffed away for 5-10 years, and most of it wasn't packed by me. I've gone through everything now I think, but heck, even after having this house since late October, I'm still finding games in funny places (Scrapyard Dog, Paperboy, Ninja Gaiden for lynx in my plastic shelving for my workshop. Henry and Tiger Casino for Game.com in my game.com. WHY didn't I check it?!).

For weeks it's been a cycle of "Clean gameroom. Unbox tangled mess of crap, sort, put in temp spot on shelves, clean game room".

That happened to me with Vandal Hearts for the PS1. I cound't find it to save my life. The part that really pissed me off was that I found the case, but no disc. Eventually I bought another copy because I really love that game. :-\

I had my PS1 games in a binder, and TG-16/Sega CD/Dreamcast/Saturn in a second, and PC in a third. I thought they were thrown out for a while; was not happy about that. Was very happy when I found them.

I know this one all too well! I've got a box of NES games that I just can't seem to find ANYWHERE in my home. Among the missing collection are some pretty valuable pieces such as Megaman 5 that I actually loved to play as well. :(

Slowly going through things and taking stuff to goodwill or to the dump, so I'll find them one of these days. :(
