I have a lot purchases which i regret (cause i am stupid and often dont look closely at the stuff i buy .... ), last time i bought a Zelda: Links awakening for the Classic Gameboy for 150€ and didnt checked the stuff inside the Box, so i got a UK Box with a 5/10 english instruction (ripped and creased) and a german cartridge. well a few months later i got an other one in 8/10 condition but at that time i was pissed.

An incomplete copy of Magic knight Rayearth for Sega Saturn. It was disc and manual only copy for about $860.00. It was an impulse buy and I later found a complete copy for only a little more. I ended up buying a high quality reproduction art work to finish it off, but it's not the same due to it being a Working Designs game.
@erikjohanson3929Ай бұрын
Yes, twice. One time I auctioned in a copy of Catherine: Fullbody for the Switch on an online auctionsite, I was promised a physical cartridge, got a code in a box. And my biggest regret from years ago a copy of Windwaker with the OoT bonus discs. It was a "new" copy. However after opening it when coming home, the discs were both scratched to hell as well as broken.

That twist ending though! Whoops! The booth with all the Strategy guides makes me drool a bit; I love that kind of additional media. I don't have a TON of them, maybe 50 (compared to 400+ games), but each one is a showcase of art and design. For a lot of games, those are the only physical media they ever got that properly showcases the concept art. I've never really undestood why everyone craps on Greatest Hits and the like; before mandatory internet updates, those were the only chance devs had to release versions with bug fixes and adjustments. Most if not all of my PS2 collection is originals, but that's really just because the games I enjoy don't often get GH versions. So this is a genuine question: What, if anything, actually makes the black label games more desirable?
@JRPGLifeАй бұрын

@@JRPGLife (and -wife) Thanks for taking a minute to answer; even though I pretty much knew the answer, it is nice to get confirmation. No one ever really addresses it, and I think it's pretty interesting that as collectors we might prefer a technically inferior product for a bit of extra ink and shelving continuity. I've actually been thinking of contributing to The Manual Project; I grew up in the 80s, and most of my earliest game experiences were rentals, which didn't include more than basic controls. As a result I spent a lot of time talking to the folks at the Nintendo hotline - I must have been a menace to them, because I lived locally to NoA and called directly rather than through the 800 number!
