Do you collect complete-in-box games, /vr/?

Carts loose, CD games with case and manual. Saturn games, a stack of CD-Rs and my best handwriting.

There only retro game I have in box (other than PS1 and Dreamcast games) is Donkey Kong Country. Yard sale. Five bucks. Best I had was Super Mario RPG. Found it complete in box for two bucks at a pawn shop back in the early 2000s. Sold it when I moved to California and needed money.

Other than those, I would have had cases from buying new SNES games and such, but they're long gone.

Only complete I have are cd based games. Had a couple complete snes games (ff vi, mega man x) but sold them about a year ago. Have manuals for a lot of cartridge games.

when it's the only option or it's cheap enough that i can do it without feeling wasteful, or if the boxes are interesting enough that i'd like to have them. pic related.

I bought a CIB Bangaioh because it was going for cheaper than most of the loose carts I was seeing at the time. Seeing for what its going for now, I'm considering just up and selling the box/inserts alone to break even on the purchase.

This is the way to do it. Although I admit I've collected quite a few loose ps1 discs over the years, mostly stuff that I found in the wild.

>paying 700+ dollars for some boxes and plastic that you'll never actually do anything with

It's just regular hoarding.

CiB isn't NiB, someone tell the honkey in OP's eBay listing.

I try to get genesis games with a case. A manual is a plus.

Most my disc games are cib, these are the only cib cart games I have though. TLoZ classics was a garage sale find, the other two were new purchases.

cardboard costs too much.

Always complete in box, because I don't live under a fucking bridge like some of you poorfags apparently

I own my own home on 7 acres. I am not spending a mortgage payment on a paper booklet and a cardboard box.

Is this reaffirming?

I'm genuinely not jelly. I'd probably just sell that shit to some retard like you.

One of the worst remakes ever.

My MOTHER 3 is in way better shape than yours. Nothing to be jelly about.

>>3085589
Shenmue II isn't even hard to get though.

Yes and no. When I buy I get CIB, but I really only buy the JP versions of old games so the price isn't as big of a deal. I still have US NES and SNES games complete from many years ago (I hung onto that stuff when I was a kid).

I rarely buy retail games these days, though.

Not jelly, just pissed a few minutes ago though. Maybe it flowed through me earlier and I didn't notice.

Have a sunset

I think you blew your load with the first pic. I'm poor as fuck and can best this one, dude...

Does buying them, sitting on them until they get ridiculously expensive and then selling them on ebay count?
