>Buying Omega Ruby on Monday
>My eBay purchase will be delivered by the 5th

Guys... this is a huge moment for me... by May 5th I will finally have completed my pokemon game collection. I thought it would take me at LEAST another year but I just found a seller who is sending me every. Single. Game. I'm missing. red, Gold, and Crystal. The oldest games that online are either 1. shitty condition or 2. Over charged. This guy was actually being reasonable so I bought all three. Holy shit I feel like such a nerd for caring so much but this was a child hood dream come true. I will soon own every single American pokemon game. Just saying that brings goosebumps to my skin. Anyone else ever have a high like I am having right now? Please share. Jesus Christ I can't stop smiling. Am I this much of a fucking nerd? I GUESS I AM! WOOT!

OP here

oh and obviously this is an older picture so the other games i've gotten since this was taken aren't included like blue, ruby, Emerald, and Alpha Saphire. I have those now too.

The new games I bought are all /vr/. The newer ones are easy as fuck to get for cheap. The old ones people are greedy assholes and don't know what "very good" condition means. Pic related. "like new" on ebay. But this was a DS game so it's even worse with GBA/GBC.

I only care about the main series games. And Gold, Crystal, Red, AND Blue are all in the mail which is why I said it will be complete by May 5th.

>>2367195
then it's not a complete collection now is it?

>>2367198
Nope guess not but i'm still happy as fuck. There's too many damn pokemon games for me to buy them all with my shitty paying job. That's why i'm buying used copies, not even new in the box sealed shit. Those costs hundreds of dollars. Not worth it.

Way to be happy over nothing. You've failed and are unwilling to admit to it. Enjoy your false sense of joy.

What did I ail at? I succeeded at getting every main series game.

No one is pretending. I grew up with pokemon. I grew up with Nintendo actually. I still have my original gameboy and a bunch of games. I don't like EVERY retro game but pokemon is one of those I do. I have nothing to prove though so talk all the shit you want. Do you want to laugh at my pathetic GB games? I have a lot of GBA games too but that might not be retro enough for you.

>> No.2367382

Well, I'm happy for you, Anon-kun. I personally think Pokemans is pleb garbage, but whatever floats your goat.

Just another milemarker on the way to the grave.

no seriously. I love Pokemon as much as the next guy (I've clocked similar hours on my games as well), but I think you'll be much more at home there.

Pokemon first came out in 1998 in the USA. That's too modern? That's almost 20 years ago.

Alright thank you. I'll remember that for the future. When I want to talk retro pokemon games i'll stick to /vp/. Sorry.
