FOR THOSE NOT FAMILIAR WITH WHAT THE "QUALIFIED" MEANS, THIS IS DIRECTLY FROM THE VGA WEBSITE: "Qualified Grading Scale (items are accompanied by documentation) - for opened package with new contents video games, systems and accessories from all years" So the 2 games Mizkif has are opened, but the contents inside have been confirmed as "unused". When it comes to the high-end market, this is a massive distinction. As soon as the seal is broken/game is opened, it becomes more akin to a glorified CIB game than a sealed game. You can disagree, or think it shouldn't be like that, but that is currently how the market treats them, and I'm not sure it will change. I hope Mizkif didn't purchase the games under the pretense that they were actually "factory sealed".

All grading is a scam. Multiple hands getting greased, ya know, except for yours, when the bubble pops and your $5000 “graded” game is worth a tiny fraction of what you paid. Meanwhile, grading company, auction house, keep all their profits. Every single market from the dawn of time has eventually corrected itself. What happens when all the collectors realize that the only people buying these games are other collectors hoping to profit from a sale at a later date to another collector. You’ve literally removed all of the intrinsic value from the good…. You might just as well purchase a piece of paper from the grading company lmao. When 99% of the value is derived from the fact it’s graded, you’re in trouble….

I’ve been into sealed game collecting since 2010. N64 games are extremely common. So common that many boxes of N64 6-packs were submitted to vga and you can tell cause they say “uncirculated”. And yes Greg is correct, I remember when vga started the “qualified” tier, it was mostly used for Earthbound. PCGS started doing “genuine” around this time, and a lot of people got “tricked” cause they weren’t educated enough to know the difference between “qualified”. I remember buying my 85+ majors mask in 2010 for $110. A lot has changed since then.

@@GetTheGreg I can understand you being aware of financials but if your main goal is the profit alone it's not about collecting it's about buying and selling.

@GetTheGreg 2 жыл бұрын
The vast majority of people I've met in this realm are motivated by the collecting aspect more than the profit aspect. Of course, the 2 aspects do become more intertwined as the value amounts grow into the thousands, but *most* people still do their buying/selling/flipping in order to fuel the collecting. Of course, there are people in every hobby who just seek to make a quick buck. If there is no actual *collecting* taking place, then we can agree.
@nexusofice9135 2 жыл бұрын
@@GetTheGreg and I agree. But what I am getting at is when you highlight profit as a key aspect of the purchase or item (like the guy in that video did) it no longer is about the Preservation and Appreciation of the concept (art or manufacturing of the item). So instead of collecting for the appreciation and preservation of the knowledge it inserts a financial incentive or motive onto the act of preserving these items for for the world. I say the same thing about all art. I can't stand it when people talk about profiting off of fine art because the art is usually presented as cultural knowledge and "cultural value". But incentive of profiteering where preservation is supposed to be the reason or enjoyment seems like the wrong reasons.

I would shell out for a few of those because it’s my favorite franchise. Yes it’s cool to learn about this but then again are these really that rare? Yeah even CIB could be considered rare because N64 boxes are very flimsy and people threw them out allot of the times.

Man, the premium commanded by N64 collecting is continually confusing to me. The console has like 15 games worth a damn (each printed in the several millions). Frankly it was a pretty dark age for Nintendo, hardly an iconic golden era. The majority of those 15 have then proceeded to age terribly into the modern day. And yet sealed N64 games are worth more due to condition rarity because... The cardboard is bad? Someone explain this to me like I'm 5

@GetTheGreg 3 жыл бұрын
Qualified isn't "resealed", it's just opened and verified as unused. So the contents can still be taken out of the box. Uncirculated is a designation given to games/consoles that generally come from sealed factory cases of games - that's the most common example. So like Mario 64 would ship to Walmart in a box with 6 copies inside. If you were to send one of those sealed boxes to VGA, have them open it and grade the MK64s inside, they would be designated as uncirculated.

Oh yea, grade swapping is huge already haha. It's a bit dependent on the type of wear your VGA game exhibits. If the VGA 85+ or 85 game is that grade due to wrap wear, it's almost always more beneficial to swap it over to WATA. But even then, always risk that you play the game wrong and end up with a parallel or even less desirable item.

Do you think a switch or unopened Zelda breath of the wild will be worth anything in 20-30 years or so?
@GetTheGreg 2 жыл бұрын
BOTW first prints are already coming a decent premium haha. But yea, I think the mainline, big franchise games will be more expensive in 20 years, but *everything* will be type of thing. Not sure if they will see any kind of meaningful gains vs holding/speculating on the endless amounts of other things out there. For me, the switch and new gen stuff is more along the lines of: buy, flip, repeat.

I don't think newer generations will ever be worth what the older games are worth sealed since not too many people held onto sealed games back in the day but now there's a ton of collectors doing just that.

i dunno if its just american boxes, but shouldnt nintendo sealed games have the red nintendo strip? what proves they havent been repackaged its not hard to do. in fact i rather see a bit of wear and tear bit of shelf damage to prove its age and legit. seeing games too mint is red flags to me.
@GetTheGreg 2 жыл бұрын
That red Nintendo strip is a PAL only thing. And it's far harder to properly replicate a Nintendo 1st party seal than it's given credit for. On top on the seal, you'd also have to have a box that has never been opened, as you can also identify a reseal by purely observing certain aspects of the box alone. The risk of reseals and fakes always exist, of course, but with cardboard based games it's not at all easy to create one that is even half convincing to people who have years of experience with them.

My personal opinion is the Miskif fella is kinda new to the hobby since WATA/HA became popular. He literally said it himself he bought those games around a year ago. This would explain how he completely missed the Qualified and why he refers them as "boxes". He might have played 'em when younger, but he's currently seeing them as investment collectibles and not actually games per se. He's probably doing what a lot of KZfaqrs out there are doing right now - hyping the crap out of them "boxes"!
