Some people get off on porn mags, others on sealed games.  To each their own I say.  8)


Agreed....I like to be frugal, I forgo the porn collection and just masturbate to the sealed games.

It's a bit different with Tatsujin.  He lives in Japan, and has many ways of getting games.  We have to usually resort to ebay or generous people here.  Plus half of the sealed one's he has he keeps saying are for others.  :-k  I'm pretty sure he plays most of what he owns.  He just has so much I'm sure it's why most are sealed.  Plus half of the pc-engine collection is terrible games.  So one other reason most of those are still sealed.  He's just trying to be a completest with his pc-engine collection, and I find that fine in my book.  I just buy games I'll play though and I do buy sealed games.  Only so I can be the only/first one to play it.

I have OCD, but hearing the term used in casual talk for collecting and stuff doesn't really bother me.

I've collected quite a few sealed games, sliced 'em open, and played the shit out of 'em.  Suck that shrink wrap!

Nobody should be be offended and tormented over misuse of OCD (or any other term, for that manner).  If anyone is gonna get their panties in such a twist over nothing, then I advise them to avoid the interwebz.

lol..yes i have some sealed games, and no i'm no specific sealed collector. as i said before, if i find a sealed copy for the cheap, i buy it in case of don't own it yet but know it's the crap, means i play it before, so i don't have to open it. or i find a seald for the cheap of a game i already own but which is in bad or incomplete condition. so i keep both of 'em, one for the collection and on for the play.

It may not bother you, but it does bother other people.

Let's leave it.

If you want to drop it why do you keep coming back to this thread?  It seems like you are posting compulsively, almost as if you had some kind of obsession...

Rainbow, you're being OCD about OCD, in a thread whose main subject has almost been made to center around OCD because of your OCD comments.

Anyway, sealed games are OK with me, though I don't understand why someone would sink their money into having a collection that contains a large portion of sealed games.

There are better investments, especially with many of these games being made available on game collection disks, or for download on game systems. Not to mention re-released. Most games seem to have depreciated from the ORIGINAL MSRP, rather than appreciated. Many don't appreciate in value.

Whatever turns a person on, though. It's their money.


I have about 10-12 sealed games, nothing difficult to find, all TG-16 games. I keep them for trades/sales, as I purcahsed them for $10 a piece or so. I couldn't pass by them for the price, haha. I may dig out one or two and lsit them for sale on here sometime soon...

I do have a thing for display boxes for my TG-16 games, that is only ebcause since I collected them i always had the display boxes. Seemed to make sense to continue that way, though it does involve more space, as I need a box to store the display boxes.
