I'd keep the cases for when I need cases. Then I'd sell all the discs/cartridges and manuals on Craigslist and Ebay together as one big lot for like $10-$20.

I collect the NHL series
other games I use the cases as backups. The carts for their backs or even the screws sometimes.

Blech. I can't stand having crappy games in my collection. "hey is this game any good?". No it sucks. "What about this one". No it's awful.

I like saying "they're all awesome".

Agreed. I can't stand having college football USA 97 next to sonic the hedgehog and vectorman. That's why it sits in my closet with my other games that are an eyesore to my collection.

One day retro sports games will be worth something because everyone will throw them away and they'll end up being rare.

College Football USA 97 is a soild title. It's from the same series as Bill Walsh College Football which was recently named one of the top 100 Sega Genesis games.
