I bought a few 3DS when they released. They were easy to get because not many people were collecting them. Now all my 3DS are worth a lot. I have the Hylian shield, Pokémon new in box. Trust me, in 10 years this TotK OLED will be worth a lot of money

I think more people are aware of consoles will eventually become "Retro". I have my favorite's switches boxed though, not for $ reasons.. Just so I have them in the future. :D P.S Hope your footy season is going well man, miss our Div 6 clashes back 3 or 4 years ago!

I think the era of buying a console and it appreciating several thousand percent has gone. Back in the 90s and 2000s we bought consoles and nobody considered that they might be collectable one day - which is exactly why they are now. Collectors love things that were never meant to be collected. There will be some appreciation if it’s a little rare, a $500 console may be with $1000. But not the huge returns that would actually make it a solid investment. I’ve considered the TOTK Switch for this very reason, but I just think there are too many people out there hoarding them in mint condition. But maybe I’m being wet blanket - let’s not discourage each other from buying more Nintendo gear!

I think the modern stuff will appreciate but it'll just take longer. If people hold and they don't appreciate, they'll open them up. Boom, before you know it, less unopened 40 year old consoles!!

Something I should have pointed out as well is we didn't really have scalpers for gaming gear 30 years ago and now it's everywhere

@Nintendo Downunder all good! Haha. I've got some vintage stuff preserved and started buying 2 of everything of the newer releases. Who knows, the kids might benefit from it someday. You have an epic collection- well done!

I know you mention you are not interested in selling things from your collection but wanted to see if you are open to a trade. I have 2 loose indigo heineken gamecubes I would be willing to trade - only 50 are believed to have been made. I would be interested in the ocarina of time green bundle n64, or the banjo Kazooie n64 bundle if you were open to a trade.
