I had some poor trade-in experiences early in life ($5 for Super Metroid, $15 for an NES console with a dozen games) so there came a point where I started to hold onto all the quality titles. There's merits to having a supply on hand too, much less pressure to go out and buy a new game.
I feel you on this one... after a couple trade ins where you get jack squat, it just feels better to keep the stuff.

I don't see why everyone keeps pmsing about how they're other threads like this.. If newer guys want to try and contribute on these boards then let them. Not everyone knows how to look back and see what we posted in the past. It's cool to read other people's views on collecting.
Exactly!! Thanks for the support robby808....

I also love the input from ehhitskp.... I did the same thing, when you speak of trading up. We traded our NES for the SNES, SNES for 64 and so on... Awesome score at the flea market, too!! Any Mega Man game is great to have just to play, never mind it's "value"...

I love the hunt.... seeing old video games stacked on a thrift store shelf, or a pawn shop is like looking at gold for me. Well, actually it's not... because I don't give a crap about gold. Give me all the classic video games!

my answer would be because the NES era was a great part of my childhood even though at that time i only had around 10 games or so, another part would be to get all the games that were released here and find out (gameplay wise) what i missed out on as a kid.

  That's what I was wondering about... I'm also into playing as many games as possible and finding the hidden gems.
