Collecting

[Digital Dictator]

Are you a game collector? Why or why not?

I think that collecting has its perks, but for the most part, it's a very demanding hobby that can suck up a lot of your time and money. Having known what it's like to collect albums for several years, I can't imagine even buying a particular used game, due to constant overpricing.

Since the Super Nintendo is the console that I favor the most, the good thing is that Super Famicom cartridges often sell for very cheap prices. The downside is obviously not being able to read Japanese, but games that don't require that much reading are definitely playable from start to finish.

I won't collect simply for money reasons. I collected Pokemon cards back in the day but I never spent money, just started with a Jynx and Charmeleon a friend gave me and traded up.

I do have a decent size collection of games, but that's because I play a lot.
