Thinking about selling a significant portion of my game collection lads. Probably just everything I can't see myself playing again. I've got a fuckton of stuff, ranging from the basic N64 shit to expensive as fuck Saturn shmups.

They're all just collecting dust and I get myself deeper into wagie/normalfag life each day, so no time to play stuff. Do you guys think it's a good time to sell? Could my Nintendo stuff appreciate more in value over the next 5-10 years? Is eBay still the best way to sell?

Now is probably the worst time for a bandwagoner to unload his shit. You probably got your "expensive as fuck" games when they were expensive as fuck on ebay. Every impulse buyer who wanted them and had money bought them then. You're not going to get anything close to those prices now. If you just cut back on the weed a little you wouldn't need to sell and you'd be able to enjoy those shmups if you're not stoned all the time.

If you have decent quality stuff, like in box etc, then it is sure to increase in value.

However,if you have a decent collection, maybe you can donate it to a museum or something. That would probably be more satisfying than selling it to someone who will separate individual games and try to make money off it.

Anyway, someone does care about the fact you use save state: your casual ass.
if you're gonna abuse save states, at least have the decency to not LARP as a harcuck gamur online. I guess that's too much to ask for someone who doesn't have a social life, though.
Either way, the "troll tactic" is always effective, /vg/ guys can't help but to feel annoyed everytime someone mention the save state thing. Just accept it, you cheat.

It's more complex than that, it's kinda weird. Dadshit is used negatively to name old collectors that don't play, but also used neutrally/positively to name very old games (think Galaga).

Either way, I want to remain neutral because I don't think /vr/ is in a very good state either, but /shmupg/ is also a joke of a general with too much gossiping, drama and shitposts. I would never thing of it as a representation of the "arcade community". It's just a silly little thread on 4chan.

I've been keeping an eye on ebay, stuff like secret of mana used to be worth a little more, donkey kong country series boxed hasn't increased in a long time. Genesis games jumped in price a bit over a year ago so they could go up a little bit. Genesis games are much nicer to collect and display because of their cases, snes and n64 look cheap in comparison.
NES games used to be a lot more expensive but now boxed games are pretty reasonable.
With N64 there are now a heap of bootlegs but conker and paper mario is still worth a bit.

>Meanwhile zoomers love their RPGs
How do you even come to this conclusion when most RPG discussion on here is 30+ year olds jacking themselves off over PS1 era Squaresoft

If the SNES classic was really big enough with collectors to make a dent into the used retro game economy, buyfags are even more retarded than I thought

>Ikaturdga is babby's first shmup

Ikaruga is a puzzle game with a shmup theme. If you haven't realized that by this point, I think you might be mentally retarded.

I mean, I could go out and buy one. It's just not the responsible thing to do. That money is better served in my company 401k or Roth.

It's very responsible for you to be thinking about retirement at your age but it's not like a few bucks is going to make a difference. You should just spend your allowance and lunch money on toys and food and enjoy your childhood.

No. If you can hold off, do so, the real time is in 10-20 years when people start getting geezer bucks to spend and want to revist their youth.

No, we're already at the peak of the price bubble for retro games. In 10-20 years most of it will be cheaper. 2019 is the perfect time to sell gen 1-4 stuff, screenshot this and refer to it in 10 years as a painful reminder.

Not on your fucking life. In 20 years just about any popular (and common) game will be priced beyond what you think is fair, I promise you. This is not comic books. These things are actively degrading under more circumstances and have not been hoarded on the level that comics were.

Then there's that, but at that point we're looking at, you know, not possibly existing in a physical form ourselves.

You're wrong though, prices have bubbled 5-10x in just the last few years (since 2012ish) and it's not going to continue going up.
