I started buying old consoles and games a few years ago. Some for my kids, some for me, some to see what would appreciate. I set up a little desktop that has every emulator I could get my hands on. Most new games don’t appeal to me and there are so many old ones that I never played that were great.
I am set and PS/Xbox will never see another dime from me. Nintendo… Maybe.

Same boat…theres soooo much to enjoy from pre entshittification era, that I really have no fomo. And the friends and such ive made from console and game selling/trading are what really make it fun

And the friends we made along the way.
I don’t mind most people that I have met. But I don’t enjoy the investor collectors. The people who want to flip and treat it like pokemon cards.

Oh nah. Dont dig those flippers. Just people that truly love the hobby and want to share it.

The guy I know that has the biggest collection I have seen mostly has cardstock printed boxes from kinkos. All original cartridges and CDs in good shape. But mostly self made inserts and boxes.
