I got a Japanese cart only copy of Bomberman 2 for the SNES today for £5

A wild mint condition N64 game appeared...

Lush.

That's brilliant condition! Better than mine, which certainly isn't bad still but now feels much inferior :lol:

The condition of yours still looks decent, especially considering just how rare boxed copies of the game actually are these days.

I was throwing a few of my games into those plastic protectors earlier and recorded some of them on my phone its not great quality but here it is.

I got Multi-Play Volleyball for the SNES today Japanese cart only for £3

I have also been looking at a few football games, its amazing in Japan how many football games there were, I miss the old arcade style football games it feels so sanitised now just endless Fifa

It's great to store your games in protective sleeves, kerr. They work really well; I bought some a few years back and I have my N64 and Game Boy titles in them. I believe that you can now get the protectors for all sorts of game boxes, too.

Yeah I have a few gameboy and Gameboy advanced games in protectors as well, I think there great to kind of stop these card based games from falling apart too much

Spent £8 earlier on the following

Hotel Dusk for DS Complete
Professor Layton and the curious village for DS missing manual
Wii Music for Wii complete
Dragons Dogma for 360 Complete
Final Fantasy XIII -2 for 360 complete

More good finds, kerr! Hotel Dusk is an interesting one and the Layton games are great; some of my fave portable system puzzlers!

Hamha!

This one was rare even when released in early 2003, as it was one of the last games released for the Game Boy Color, and none of the main gaming shops of the day seemed to want to bother with it.

Now that's a game you don't often see, Vermilion. The GBA version is far more common than this GBC one; a nice boxed and complete title to have in your collection!

I like how you use classical music in your videos - it's unusual to hear on a gaming presentation :-)

Cheers, i figure it's better to have a bit of chilled out background music rather than someone being extra shouty into the camera like a lot of youtubers.

Are these from your collection and not recent purchases? Was just saying yesterday how I'd love to have Banjo Tooie

His collection. IIRC he has a video showing his N64 and GC collections (post them here for sweet ad revenue, Vermi).

So you could sell it no doubt like that Samus Returns

They're from the collection, and were bought at the time of release (getting hold of a copy of Hamtaro was a bloody nightmare!).

I forgot all about those vids (on closer inspection, i filmed them in 2015 so the quality may not be the greatest as i was just starting out doing YT properly then)...

The collection remains the same to this day, though i may still do the odd new video in which i'll open up some of the boxes properly.

But I don't have it, why would I sell it?!

You would love to had back then it so you could sell it now is what I'm saying
