I am a really young gamer and one of my hobbies is collecting old video games. I still consider myself a noob when it comes to collecting, but I have collected some awesome games and stuff across the years. Today I will mainly be showing off my games. Here is my collection thus far:

2014 update: I've collected So many new games and added so much to my collection that its time to update this very outdated thread. I will Bold parts that have been updated. Still in the process of updating the Gameboy, Xbox and Ps1 sections.

You can just barely see the MGS HD collection on top. I wasn't sure where I put L.A. noire, which is why it is not in the picture.

PSP/Vita:


I am really impressed with how far I've come with my collection. I recently picked up a retron 5, so I've begun to collect SNES/super famicom games. So far I have Kunio Kun Tachi no Banka and Rockman 7. Expect me to post about those in the near future as well.

Wow, thats a nice collection! I was going to say quality over quantity, but as I kept scrolling I noticed you have quite a few games!

Also, going from NES to VB to PS1, you cant be that young!

Nice collection, you have alot of titles i would pick up if i saw them for sale at the right price.

Well heres the thing, I got my Nes VERY late like in the 90s, I was really young, all I remember was my aunt randomly coming over and handing the NES with Mario/duckhunt to my brother who is about six years older than me. I didn't really become serious about collecting until i was much older. I'm only 19 and probably the only person I can think of in my age group that actually collects video games from previous generations.

Look at the right places. Bomberman 64 second attack I scored for $25 at play n trade. FES I got for $15 at K-mart, MvC 1 $25. Rival schools I was able to get for about $20. Honestly, I lucked out on some of those games. Though others not so much, Tales of Destiny cost me about $50 and Bangai-o about $40(I will gladly pay twice that amount!).

The best way to get rare games for a decent price is to stalk ebay, Play n trade, or a thrift shop(I once saw Chrono Cross and Xenogears for $5 each at a thrift shop near me, that same store actually had ace attorney, and FFVI advance for pretty cheap too).

Nice game collection, great variety of quality games

Personally i dont think your collection is noobish, you have alot of great titles spanning from various console. Great stuff man.

Paging OP to this thread

A nice collection, modest but nice. I'm sure you will be adding to it in the future.

Of course! I am FAR from done with it! In fact I just recently got the Tales of Destiny.
