I used to swap and trade so many games when I was a kid, I’ve somehow got this instruction booklet of Desert Fighter. So also picked up the loose cart. It’s really quite a difficult game, like Desert Strike but you’re constantly moving forward.

I'm trying to get some acrylic cases for more of my most prized games in my collection since standard plastic cases wasn't going to cut it.
Is there any stores that sells a variety of acrylic case for a bunch of different consoles games for relatively cheap?
The following is a link to my post, I need help no local game stores or other subreddits can figure this out. I think you can find my post on my profile if you don't want to click link. I need all hands on deck. This isn't click bait I may of found a holy grail in the Guitair Hero section. I am a collector :) <3
I've been collecting for awhile and I've always been in love with the Xbox (especially 360). I've got a good amount and recently added Silent Hill 2 to my collection, any recommendations for future additions?
It would be a lot to imagine a possible Assassin's Creed Black Flag film, with Norman Reedus as Edward Kenway.
So a few days ago, I wrote about how I desire to create a finely-tuned, curated collection here. I was ready to reduce my close to 200 game collection down to around 150 titles when the darnedest thing happened: I began playing some of those discarded games that I stowed away inside a box by my door.
I first started with Catherine (Xbox 360), and I quickly remembered why I loved this game to begin with. I'm still playing it, but, man. It hits me differently now that I'm married and with children of my own than it did when I was 22 years old. I also put on NHL 95 (SNES), and, much to my surprise, there was one of my high school friends' names on the roster of the Vancouver Canucks. He must of played it when we lived in the college dorms together. Seeing it brought back a stream of memories. After that, I plugged up the Wii and let my daughter try out Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing because she's a fan of the blue hedgehog. It wasn't as good or engaging as I'd remembered, but then we transitioned over to Mario Kart Wii; let me tell you, that game has aged well. It's still the fun-time-party-game that it ever was. Seeing the Mii of my wife (girlfriend at the time) and myself and other people we knew at the time marching around the plaza was something else.
I say all this not to necessarily proclaim that I plan on abandoning the idea of "cleaning up." At my core, I am a minimalist, and I do desire the idea of things that really reflect me and where I'm at. I know for a fact that some of those forty to fifty games won't be with me, and it won't take another play through to reexamine it. However, I think it may be prudent, if you're like me and considering downsizing, to at least give one or two of those games a shot before you ship them away. You'll never know what you'll find if you do.
General Downsizing Reflections:
Thanks for reading this anecdote. If you do what I do now or in the future, give yourself time and grace and it typically works itself out.
Added these two (or rather, 3) to my collection this evening, plus a few for my gf’s switch not pictured.
A bit disappointed however because I thought I was scoring a copy of Transformers Devastation PS4 as well, but they could not find the disc… :/
My highlight is I got Dark souls 1-3 brand new for $60
Hi all. I received an email from Iam8bit on the 27th saying my corrected PS5 copy was shipping now. Anyone else get this? I wasn't expecting this until next year.
Pretty much over and done with the Switch with the exception of a few games like Princess Peach, Xenoblade X, Brothership. At 225 total games, it’s been fun, but now just crave good performance and graphics. Having an absolute blast with the PS5. Focusing only on quality titles (ignore Kong and Forspoken 💀) that I’m actually planning to play. It also feels to me that the PS5 will be the last console with physical media.
3D All-stars and mario wonder for monkeyball and 2 dollars (cash 💰). Tbf I bought them 3 other games as an early Christmas gift. They were so adamant about wanting to trade with me.
Been debating getting a PS2, what are the best games for the platform?
Got everything for $50 which I thought was reasonable. Been looking for a copy of leisure suit Larry for awhile now. The others were all just bonuses.
