i agree with the majority of your statements twistedsymphony..but how many of us have the patience to wait around 20 or 30 years?.:p..plus in 20 years time majority of disc based items will be obsolete if not long gone..30 years out, our current game systems won't even be compatible with the current gen tv's at that time..so even if you found that "old relic ps3 from 25-30 years ago"...chances are it' won't work,..if you need parts, there gonna be hard to come by, and how would you ever play it?..those hdmi cables outlets will be prehistoric,.etc..disclaimer:i personally love collecting..it's fun..i'm just playing devil's advocate here..with what i am sharing is what people have said to me, or i have read in the media...so i'm not trying to belittle anybody's collection..i'm also a sealed collector,..just for purpose of debate..and just do'ing a little thinking about how much are games will truely be worth?..in an age of all digital media on the horizen, and remakes in HD being churned out left and right, imagine the state of digital downloads 10 years from now, let alone 20..and imagine HD in the next decade..our stuff will be left behind,..perhaps..we live in the moment?.lol.and it gives us joy..but some here..are buying games, and getting them graded, thinking somebody would want to play it..but are going to pay a gazillion dollars for theres, when the new hd remake, will be 10x better at that time, and cost 1/100th of what we feel our editions will be worth..so it would be very very hard to put a value on our editions and find a market for them in the future..again, i know some collect and use for personal enjoyment, besides that, there are people here collecting thinking it will make them money in the future..and others like me..who just needed a hobby and found some really neat looking editions abroad..that were missing out on here in the US
