Post highlights of your collection. Whether it's rare or not.

I'm trying to add Chibi Robo to this little plot, but fuck me.

If I got out all of the cool shit I have it'd take a good while to get it all back together so I'll just post the one and mention the others.
My copy of Earthbound is easily the crown jewel of my collection as it's the first major collecting goal I achieved. Back when I started to seriously get into collecting video games in late 2017, I knew I had to get my hands on a copy of Earthbound. Looked up prices, and was blown away by how retardedly expensive it was. So I moved on with the game just sitting in the back of my mind until late 2019. There it was. A copy of Earthbound listed for $155 thanks to the label being slightly torn on the top. Otherwise excellent cosmetically, tested and working. Jumped on it with my Christmas money, and bam. The first game I received in the mail in 2020 was Earthbound. A little over two years after I really started getting into the hobby. Another thing I got this year was a Complete in Box set of the Samba De Amigo Maracas. There were 2 sets of Maracas in the box along with the game and the instructions when there was only meant to be the one set of Maracas. Got that as a gift from my step dad for getting on my college's honor roll. Lastly, I got Cubivore Survival of the Fittest this year from a good friend of mine, but I still need to pay him back. I'm paying him on christmas. Also picked up a Neo Geo CD this year, but with no games, controllers, or even a power supply, so I have yet to actually play the thing. It was a really good price though considering they usually go for double what I paid to get it. Overall this year has been stellar in terms of getting high value items for my collection.

Sculpter's cup and a complete Bad Fur Day are probably my most valuable.

I had a complete Super Turrican 2 that I sold for $400 a while back. Awesome game, but don't regret it.

These are a mix of my most expensive games and my favorites for their respective consoles. I plan on expanding my NES collection since I mainly played games on those via emulation and Wii VC, but I plan on getting Contra, Castlevania 1 and 3, Mega Man 2 and 3, and DuckTales. I'm also planning on getting a PC Engine, so I'm open to any recs anybody has. I'm most interested in any shmups and beat-em-ups for the system. I plan on importing some Saturn and Dreamcast games, namely Radiant Silvergun, Triggerheart Exelica, and Capcom vs. SNK 2. The last game console that I'd love to pick up would be a Neo Geo AES, but I'll have to wait a year or two probably seeing how expensive it is now.

The MGS2 box is a Japan-Only Special Edition called an MGS2 premium package. There's been a "Premium Package" for Metal Gear Solid 1-5, Twin Snakes, Peace Walker, 3D, and Ground Zeroes. I really want the MGS3 one.

Yeah, Tommy Tallerico is Earthworm Jim's composer, I also got my Pac-Man World signed by him.

Funny enough Mischief Makers is because when I was a kid I got to go to Toys R' Us and get a game, but I wasn't choosing fast enough so my mom threaten to just take me home. So I chose a random game and that was Mischief Makers. Boktai was a christmas gift from the GBA days, same with the GBA player, Safari was a birthday present along with a super scope. The wife owned Harvest Moon, Goemon, and Mister Mosquito when I met her. She has more stuff too.

No thanks. I rather buy video games from someone who is trying to make a living to support his or her family and keep a roof over their heads, then to waste money that's not even going towards poor people, but instead going into the hands of greedy Democrats who won't even pass a stimulus bill that would allow people to receive $2000 instead of $600, ya dumb leftist commie cuck.

I just started collecting so this is all I got, a CIB JP Mischief Makers. The box has some damage that you can see in the photo but it was very cheap and the cartridge is like new. It's a pretty good game too, but I'll have a hard time getting the gold gems from the bosses.

You're the only retard here. I don't even need the check because I am financially secured and am immune from ever going homeless thanks to the business I run. Something you Leftist Commies know nothing about since you live off your parents. But I do feel sorry for those who lost their jobs, their homes, their small businesses and can't get any form of income because of corrupt Democrats not wanting to fork up more cash to the American people. But go ahead, continue being a dumb cuck who worships corruption within our government.

Leftists aren't happy with $600 or the government either, the only people seething about "muh welfare" are not American and live in some shithole where $600 is like literal gold for them. That and neoliberals who are so desperate to spite orag man they're willing to let people die just so they can say they went against the orag man. Doesn't change orag man is only doing this shit as political theater and both sides of congress are fucking Americans in the ass as hard as possible. If the $600 stimulus passes I hope it finally convinces people politicians aren't their friends and start shooting them.
