DynamiteCop 2,085 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 The funny thing is I could probably sell what I have now for upwards of $60,000 to $70,000. However I know I would regret it because a lot of the things I have I would never be able to get again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Like... hoarding shit or whatever... but certain things.. certain classics... nah, I'd keep that shit. I still have my original FF1 NES copy as well as the original Zelda gold cartridge. I wont sell them. They hold a special place in my heart. lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

54212 432 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 It's weirdly fun. People, at the very least buy physical copies of Japanese role-playing and horror games. I'm just saying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Basically what you need to look for are good games that sell really poorly at launch. Even better if the games are part of a cult classic franchise. JRPGs and Japanese horror games definitely fall into those categories. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

"old trash" I don't even know who you are anymore Don't worry, Suikoden II owns but if I want to play it I can just emulate the game for free on PC or get it for cheap on PSN. I rather make a significant profit that keeping it at my place. I got way too many fucking games. It's taking up a lot of spaces. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. House 3,371 Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 By the way I still got Suikoden 1. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lost my Gamecube and a bunch of high value games during a break-up too. lol I'm pretty much all digital too but I'm always on the lookout for games that will net me a profit (or anything really). I just keep them sealed now, even easier to resell. Wish I started doing that way sooner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, not much and they are not in a good condition, unlike most of the rest of my stuff. I have more Xbox games from that era. I let one of my coworker borrow my copy of Panzer Dragoon Orta then Covid happened and lost contact with the guy and what is it the first thing I see at a local used games store, a fucking copy of PDO at $70 and I'm pretty sure it's mine.

Some of the DMCV guys could probably make it into a decent game or hell, the RE teams. With Nioh and Sekiro being pretty big now, a samurai demon slasher seems like a safe bet. But lol Capcom doesn't give a shit about Onimusha, couldn't even be bothered to port part 2, 3 or 4. Lmfao. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Delita 698 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Almost none of the games of last gen or this gen are going to ever reach those kind of values again. With the rise of digital, collecting has taken a massive plunge. Which is why i buy all my games digital nowadays since it isn't worth it buying physical anymore. You're not going to have a suikoden II or a panzer dragoon saga in your collection again. I used to be that person who would buy games over MSRP a few years later because there was literally no other way to play it since the publishers like Atlus only ever made a tiny amount for launch and that was it. Now days with digital that's never a problem It devalues your physical copy when you're no longer part of some exclusive elite club who owns a rare game in tiny physical supply, but is instead available at the press on a button on digital Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,906 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 idk why people do this. I sold nearly all my PS1 and PS2 games years ago and still feel gutted by it, one of the worst decisions i've ever made (2nd to dropping $10K on a shitty chinese cryptocurrency).
