I feel this. I sold a handful of games that I had no attachment with to a local shop a week ago, just to feel it out. Even though it wasn't much, it was the first culling of my collection in quite a long time. Now i have a few expensive items that I'm wondering if i bring to the shop also, or if I just sell them online myself.

It’s tough to do, going through and paring down the collection. It’s important though to keep a loose grip on material things, making sure we own them and not the other way around; for me, selling or giving away things I know I’m not going back to or have no real connection to is helpful and refreshing. Great video and good luck selling part of your collection!

Good job recognizing what makes you happy in regard to collecting. I would feel claustrophobic looking at my endless boxes of sports and magic cards. Sure I could have saved them until I'm almost dead, and min/max my IRL score, but I got the most joy from sharing with friends and Randos. Offering them a chance to enjoy something they never thought was feasible. The second hand elation and positive vibes I experienced made me love the hobby more than ever, and in an entirely new way. Absolutely no regrets, and yeah $80,000 never hurts.

Love me some Windjammers!!!! Then again I love Neo Geo in general! Did not know that P4G limited edition was worth that much! I guess due to it being sealed? Anyway that's great that you went through with it Mort! During the height of the pandemic, i was unemployed for 2 years. Now before you feel bad for me, I quit the job I was working at (at the time) due to not feeling safe working there while it was going on. I did the same exact thing you did during those 2 years, i went through multiple game collections for various consoles pulling games out I either didn't play or questioned why I had. I was surprised with the amount of games I pulled out of my collection, and was willing to sell. At that time, it worked out great for me! It also felt good to downsize my collection (if that makes any sense). I'm proud of ya man! Good luck with meeting your deadline!!!!

I did a huge purge of my PS1 and PS2 collection several years ago to a local store who gave me great value (even gave me full value on my Suikoden II, because they wanted it for their personal collection). It was always a cool thing to look at on the shelf, but I barely ever played them anymore, and being able to pay off an entire new gaming PC was a fairly nice trade-off.

If I made a video about my current collecting and gameplaying habits (along with my logic for both,) this would be me in the video instead of you. If I was only allowed to keep one PS Vita game in my collection, it would definitely be Uncharted: Golden Abyss. I've reduced my overall game collection of thousands by 25% in the last 2 years and said multiple times I wanted a curated collection as well. So far, it's working for me. Even with all of the emotions, at the end of the day, it's SO liberating. Good luck to you sir. I know exactly how you feel and what you are going through.

Also having to have beaten the game before I keep it ensures I only have games I like enough to do a playthrough.

So many non collector friends are just like why don't you sell it all and pay off your morgage or get a bigger house. They just don't understand how challenging this is.

My favorite game that’s i got on my vita is the ratchet & clank trilogy just because ratchet & clank is one of my favorite franchises and basically this game made me start to collect every game on the vita that’s got a hebrew/greek release a journey that’s took me 2 years and 3 months.

My most valuable Vita games are the Spider-Man, Sly Cooper 1-2/3 and Thieves in Time, Ridge Racer, WRC4 and Farming Simulator 2018. Yes, I bought these for our eight year old son, but it shows the bizarre nature of the market that ordinary used games may now cost double of their original recommended retail price.

I sold almost my entire collection about 2 years ago😅 sometimes i miss it but most of the times i dont because ill rather have space😂 but i must admit it fellt like the ending of a era... I collected comics and video games for about 25 years from the nes all the way to the Switch😅 Now i only still collect Switch but no more clutter and shuffleware😂

Vita is one of the few systems that I never had even a passing interest in collecting for. It's even harder to justify starting now that pricing on anything that would interest me is through the roof. Good on you though for having that moment of clarity that I think we all have once in a while of "Oh right, I don't have to keep everything I bought forever".

Collection question my brother? I myself am not into completing a system. But I have been thinking of going after every Zelda, and Metroid game. Does that sound dumb? They are my favorite two series. But that means I have to get a lot of systems 😆

Your collecting preferences and choices are personal matters :) There are plenty of people who collect every game for a particular series though. Having a focused direction can make it more fun and purposeful.

I think it's sad when a person buys so many games and starts to realize that they'll never play them, maybe because they have too many or because they realize they're not interested. I'm very careful with this and I recently sold my handhelds with flashcarts and I felt a great relief getting rid of what I no longer used, because it no longer made sense to me.

As a collector and player I have narrowed myself to my childhood consoles as well as trying to limit myself to around 40-50 games per console that I return to, but I have games coming in and out that I play and after just ask will I play again , most of the time I say no and pass it on. Curating your collection is a great step for mental and wallet health 😂
