All, or well most of my sports games (Except a few I like) are sitting in a box, with other cheap games.

I have used a lot of the backs of the cartridges and swapped them out with more expensive games(Usually rpgs). I check to see the back is exactly the same (which can be a pain for later cartridges) and change them out, so no one knows.

No, but the chair was rather uncomfortable. :(

I'm sure some can be used as donor carts for repros as well.

That. And I used to buy 50 - 99 cent sports games for genesis if they had a case. Cases are useful. The tall EA cart boxes are even good for 32X games.

Personally I give all my old sports games to my little brother so he can not play them.
