I was wondering if anyone else here collects video games? If so, what do you collect for and how big is your collection? What rarities or just really cool stuff do you have as well? Pics or youtube videos would be cool too if you have them.

My collection currently stands at 1532 games across about 15 consoles. My top three consoles that I love collecting for and just love in general are Dreamcast, PS2, and N64. Instead of going over individual stuff in my collection, here is a youtube video of my collection (it is two parts).

I'm super picky about things taking up space, but I have been trying able to pick up the Etrian Odyssey series (since I've got 3 and up in hard copies) and also the Playstation 1 Namco Museum games, if only for the box art.

I've recently started collecting 3DS titles. It's a really small collection at the moment, with less than 10 games, but it's definitely already pretty pricey. I'm looking to buy the collector's edition for Theatrhythm - Final Fantasy Curtain Call before it goes up in price some more, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to get enough money for it.

I used to be really, really into video game collecting. But I ended up falling on some hard times and had to sell most of my stuff. It's a shame, too. I used to have quite an impressively collection primarily of SEGA stuff.

Yeah, I collect games but I don't buy any random game just for the hell of it. I buy games I actually want to play.
For example, I can download Kirby Super Star for the Wii U Virtual Console but I would much rather have the actual SNES cartridge.
I'd upload pictures but I am actually literally in the process of cleaning up and organizing as I type this.
Here are my consoles though:
NES
Famicom
SNES
Super Famicom
N64
Gamecube
Wii
Wii U
PS2
PS3
Genesis (model 2 + 3) (also 32x)
Dreamcast
Gameboy Color
GBA (and SP)
DS
DS Lite
3DS
PSP
PC Engine

I think my most valuable and rarest games are:
Earthbound
Xenoblade Chronicles
Endless Frontier
Mint unopened Donkey Kong Country
Demon's Crest
Final Fantasy II and III (SNES versions)

I think I have some others but I'm having a brain fart atm.
