what rare or hard to find games do you have

[juan0tron]

Ive been anxiously waiting to post up pictures but Ive commited myself to waiting untill everything has been cased and covered. Also need to build a second bookshelf as the one I have now is starting to explode since I got my most recent box of UGC's. Im getting close tho.

I'm having that same problem. Aside from the poly cases all I really have to do is make a run down to the local print shop.

Hmmm. If you always end up buying more loose or unboxed games before you finish boxing everything in UGCs we will never see your collection.

Yeah, that does seem like it could be the case, but my pace of aquiring new games has slowed down pretty good lately as Ive been refraining myself from buying online. So really all Ive added to my collection in the last little while has all been found locally. The big thing for me is just getting my NES, and SNES games finished since there pretty much the only cartridge based consoles I have left with loose games on my shelf. Trust me, Ive been dying to show off what Ive worked so hard on but itll all look so much better once its finished.

How about you tik, where the pics of your collection?

hopefully no one will find and then rob me. I got snow brothers for the NES. Although, I had to buy it on eBay, but I only paid $50 (including s & h) at the time.

I'm not really the show them what I got guy. I dunno my collection is sth kinda private for me only.

Maybe I'll make a little photo session sometime in the near future. Maybe.

@tik I do remember you posted a pic of a small stack of boxed games once upon a time.

[BadChad]

Yeah, I remember that too. His "To-Do" pile that grows faster than he can handle.

[tiktektak]

You mean this one:



Luckily I have more space now and can sort the stuff better so not one big pile anymore but more smaller ones.

I dont know muych about the Game Gear so can anyone tell me if I have any rarities in this lot?

I never bother to learn what games I have that are rare outside of this one:
Action 52 (Sega Genesis).
I bought it for $2 at a Hollywood Video back in '06. Unfortunately it's a loose cart and there are like no worthwhile scans of it anywhere to make a custom cover. Rare + loose, not such a good mix...

Moby Games has scans and the cover is simple enough to make a 1/2 custom cover, I'm good with low quality art and could make you one after some other covers im working on.

I don't know if I have any *rare* games. The Ace Attorney games are kinda hard to find, I guess
