what would you value your collection at?

[Anonymous No.4653115]

what would you value your collection at? retro gaming is quite an expensive hobby, and just getting a good 250/300 games and 6 systems im looking at maybe 5 grand, 8 when i complete my storage units. im looking at all this and wondering in the future how much this is all going to be worth when it doesn't even work anymore....

how much do you think you got? whose sons and daughters might be cashing in on some lump ass sum some day?

[Anonymous No.4653120]

Sorry but It would take several days to inventory & value my collection, and I'm not doing that for some anon on the internet.

[Anonymous No.4653127]

I don't have a collection anymore, aside from like 30 or so Dreamcast games I didn't want to part with. Maybe around $300? Not counting the several old consoles I have sitting in boxes.

Loose carts on shelves really grind my gears.
Why not go full-pleb and dump all your Saturn and Playstation discs in a binder, so you can throw out those cases too?

Do you live in your own little world where it's easy to find old ass games with intact original boxes?

[Anonymous No.4653170]

$723.77, according to PriceCharting. It's not a big collection.

[Anonymous No.4653181]

>>4653120
So CAD/AUD/GBP 0.00 then anon?

[Anonymous No.4653197]

Between hardware and games, maybe around a grand. Most of it is just things I never got rid of as I got older. I don't have a lot of the boxes or manuals that came with stuff which is a shame, I like reading the ones I do have for a quick nostalgia hit.

Yes, the land of taking care of my own shit when it was bought new, and not being a Johnny-come-lately to retro games.

[Anonymous No.4653230]

If I took the time to sell everything, a grand,all bought at yardsales in 2000s

3 NES
3 n64
Intellivision
Atari 2600
A dozen game boys
Around 100 games between these

[Anonymous No.4653247]

In-between 1 and 2 grands I'd bet.

$20,000

Not sure. Arcade cabs and PCBs alone would be a few thousand. Expensive retail games maybe another thousand plus, and non-retail games another several thousand.

But if you are to judge worth by monetary value, that's patently false. At the very least the CIB games are absolutely worth money.

[Anonymous No.4653440]

About $5,000 i'd guess. I have quite a large Saturn collection that thankfully i bought a few years ago. Filling out my 6th-gen collection now, almost finished with the Xbox.

[Anonymous No.4653451]

then dont fucking post. what if everyone who came in this thread that wasn't going to answer OPs question posted "i'm not going to answer". the entire thread would be 99% that, only most people are self-aware enough to not shit up the board with a pointless comment.

$100k

I'm not the guy who posted the image - no idea what was paid for all of the toys and stuff, but the games themselves are certainly worth a good bit. Given that it's Rockman/MM, I'd assume the merchandise is worth a decent amount as well.

only if. and not most are that are into retro gaming too many problems and bullshit to properly run a bunch of old games. og hardware is the all around best way to go about it, even if a little pricey.

[Anonymous No.4653587]

>>4653115
perhaps over $1k. I am a minimalist. When digital backups became norm, I dumped physical copies of all games. Currently processing through Gamecube and Wii games, getting ready to sell them too. The CD-R for the PSX is cheap enough to justify some media. For what I enjoyed, this is the best of what I need.

I have a few small bins with peripherals not pictured. Working hardware is where it is at. I have Numerous controllers and backup systems. Started looking for another wii for an snes/nes emulator for my younger brother, who is 34

yeah, now it is, because of the amount of tremendous faggots that are willing to pay several times more than things are worth. i got all my favourite games over a decade ago, im not willing to calculate worth as im not a hipster spastic that collects just because it has monetary value (i have a lot of software).
