Nothing that wouldn't be already available thanks to emulation, right?

Game collector's are not gamers, they are only stupid.

Than why not just get some cheapest cartridges, print out the games logo, hint book etc., let it swim in Cola so it'll age faster and sell for $750999 on ebay?

I'm so glad I don't collect 2600 stuff anymore, there are just too many carts you will never ever own.

If I had the money I'd buy the darn thing just to dump roms anonymously in some place.

I'm not in the "I HAVE something that you DON'T HAVE philosophy". If I like it enough, I keep it, that's the value. I mean, if the game came with a limited gold pin that looks good, than yes that's collector value. That doesn't have anything to do with the game. This is the information age, everything leaks out eventually. You want value? Stick to gold pins.

If I want a rare game, I can create one for myself. It's easier to do everyday.
There is no point really unless you're really bad at it.

Cheers,

Talkie
