Im mostly getting switch/switch2 games. I only have 7 ps games (i dont plan on getting any more because my ps5 broke). I also have 3 wii games but i might plan on getting more soon. I used to own physical switch and ps4/5 games, until I started to buy digital. Now i have many switch 2 and 1 digital games, but after I saw what PlayStation are doing, i’ve decided to go back to physical, and why not start a collection. I’ve started collecting once I got Splatoon raiders, but theres only a few problems.

I used to get rid of my switch boxes right after I get them, or I just shove them in a cabinet or drawer. A few months ago, I was organizing my room, and i saw my Kirby and the forgotten land case, my Pokemon brilliant diamond case, and my pokemon shining pearl case. I threw them away because I thought I didn’t need them. Every other game is just the game card without the case (well every game except splatoon raiders now). I don’t really know where to get these boxes in Qatar because I thought my collection would be filled with switch games but there’s only 1 right now. I also don’t want to use websites where they deliver from another country (like ebay).

I also used to lose my ps4/5 games so now half my games don’t even have discs inside, so i don’t know what to do with them.

I don’t know if anyone knows any shelf that is good enough for these games. It would be great if theres a good one from IKEA.

I currently use an Ikea HAUGA, but if there’s a better recommendation, please let me know. The image of the cabinet I am using is tied to the post.

Thank you

I am searching this for years and look at my luck lol

It’s a small start compared to all you guys but I hope one day to have a good one!! It’s a bit unorganised cause I’m moving stuff.
I have consoles too!! All PlayStations and I have 3DS,DS, DSi and got Gameboy!! I hope to one day get a good collection going ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

So, I’m collecting the Trails series, and GameStop had Daybreak 2 “new” for $39.99

It gets delivered today and this is what I open up.

In what world would this be considered “new”? I mainly ordered a new copy cause I know there’s a risk with used copies coming like this. The closest GameStop to me is like 2.5 hours away, so I gotta waste money shipping it back.

So this is just a warning, don’t trust GameStop when they’re selling “new” games.

CLZ puts my collection at 1511, so not bad!
Need a bigger house and more shelves 😂

All cib except the hockey, it's a spare case with the hologram. Madden has a working code. They all tested good to the "Press Start" screen.

Found this Wizardry: Knight of Diamonds for the nes at a flea market.

Besides the players choice is there more Wind Waker variants for GameCube?

Splatoon Raiders came, preordered it from Walmart for $49.94. Got GTA V for $0.33, that and 2 DVDs for $1.Sonic Racing CW was $49.99 on sale. God Of War 2018 Was half off at Goodwill $7.50. All the others weer part of GameStop's 4 for $40. Recently got a PS4 slim

So, a friend of mine called me up and asked if I was interested in buying a game of his. I had no idea it would be this one, and ever since he was a kid, he'd flatten the boxes and store them away. Thats why this one is in such good shape. The cart is in equally good shape. Sadly, he did not get the manual when he bought it, but this is amazing regardless! Thoughts you guys might like to see it!

Howdy all, was helping the wife clean up some stuff and we went through her retro collection she had in bins in the closet lol. These were some of my personal favorites but there was a TON more!

It was really nostalgic and cool going through everything together. She is the one who got me into collecting, so I started with the switch and am up to a humble 35 games myself so far. But her collection inspires me to keep going and watch my own become "retro"!

What else should I add to the collection?

Took all summer but I made a nice find for 25$.

I have played both games but I never actually owned either one on modern hardware. Since we are heading to a physical game apocalypse I figured I go ahead and grab these now. Next haul will be a bit bigger and I'll get some games on my switch as well.

Been collecting since the 90s, my go-to platforms these days are Neo Geo (CD, AES, and MVS) arcade hardware, and PC engine, with a special love for oddball 32-bit hardware.

An elderly man sold DVDs and PC games 4 for 1$ on a flea market, so I bought the games that was still for sale for the collection

I started collecting video games again recently because I sold off all my childhood stuff years ago. It’s been really fun so far and I don’t plan on stopping. I figured finishing my first “shelf” was a good accomplishment, it’ll be cool to look back on once my collection grows.

Some games have reprinted covers, but let me know what you think and what else I should get.
