That's the way to do it. Get just the games you enjoy. No need to buy a game just for the sake of having it. That makes your game collection very special and special to you. I bet you have a great collection that matters to you. I sold my consoles and games and replaced them with USB Controllers and a PC. I don't have the luxury of collecting the way you do, let alone completionest collecting. Time, Money and Space are just some of the factors I cannot contend with.

Prices will drop back down once no one can afford it and they just have a piece of circuit board and plastic laying around and they need money. It will happen with all these games, just wait. They are sort of like stocks, knowing when to sell it is key, having it is not enough. Retro games have hiked in price mainly due to youtubers, before youtube, it was not this expensive. However, once these youtubers drive prices so high that people start to lose interest in retro gaming they will come back down. I know many people who lost interest in retro gaming due to the high prices and moved on to other hobbies. These youtubers are cashing in on the crazy right now but in doing so they are facilitating their demise. It is just a matter of time. Flash carts will see some gain and increase in sales due the high prices for authentic retrogames. Once the current market shifts everyone to flash carts, it will cheapen the authentic retrogames in the near future, and I mean really cheapen it to the point where some of these collectors will have a net loss from selling it. Like I said knowing when to sell it and at what price is key. Also with the advent of near perfect emulators for the 16 /8 bit retrogames, these 16/8bit collectors will see the value of their collection drop dramatically in the coming years as the majority of people are gamers and not collectors. Most people just want to play the game. Only a small minority are true collectors.
