I like your style, that is a thing of beauty :)

How come you collect sealed games? I know they are tricky to track down etc. But I hope you also get another copy of each game to enjoy and play?

How many games are in your collection mate, and how do you display them?

All the best

Hi mate, I have about 50 sealed games in my collection, mainly NES, N64, SNES and GB all PAL. I do have a few Famicom Disks which are cool also. All sealed.

You can fit them into clear cases or get them rated and have them like this !

Yeah I'm really happy I have this sealed especially for this reason.

December 1998, running down the stairs, catching my mum by suprise as she was showing my brother the new Zelda game she bought me. As she panicked she swiftly proceeded to RAM the game in a draw which was already bulging with its contents. It was the gold cart as well.

I've got a gold one sat here, opened and played to death.

What's the appeal of collecting sealed games? I'm honestly interested to see the appeal.

I have a gold one too, played to death.

I suppose the main reason I collect sealed games is because it makes me feel good to have a game in immacualte condition, never opened. To me it can be compared to a work of art in a museum locked away behind glass. Sure they are made to be played and I do play them a lot but it is nice to preserve them also. I only collect games I loved as I was growing up as I have such fond memories.

I also see them as an investment, all my games are going up in value and will continue to do so. Especially as I see videogames going digital only.

Fantastic, good on you mate! :)

I always enjoy looking at collections like this, the passion for gaming is obvious for all to see.

What's the next game you've got your eye on?

I really want FFVII PAL sealed black label but it costs £1k+ !

You guys should check this site out especially for sealed gaming. Worth a look just to see other peoples collections. :eek:
