Not to mention older stuff brings in top dollar from collectors.

Hell, Valkyrie Profile on eBay is still selling for a good $129 USD for a used copy, and it's only a PS1 game (that I want... *mumble*)
Earthbound sells (for a used copy) around $80 on eBay.
So yeah, all the collectible games are worth some nice money.

I will be sitting on a fortune once more people want the entire Soul Blazer trilogy.
I already have a couple sought-after games, and inbetween me and my bf, we have a good $1000 in rare games... and if I could find a near-flawless version of Phantasy Star 1, between the two of us, we would have the ENTIRE American set of the Phantasy Star games.

I guess that since I got so caught up in collecting and playing that I forgot about the money. Not that I'm going to sell. I would post my list but that's too much

Unfortunately, no one around here has a copy of VP long enough for me to buy it.  So I have to resort to eBay. Hell, one guy in EB (the reason I despise EB employees), when I asked if MAYBE he had a copy of VP, started laughing at me.

Hehe, I have the guide to Secret of Mana. About two-three years ago, I could have gotten the carts for Secret of Mana AND FF2, both for $40. Unfortunately, I had NO money with me, and no job. >< I was pretty mad about that.

Oh, trust me, my friend had to drag me away from the guy selling it. Two games, both worth $40... but he was willing to sell them both to me for the price of one.

Aw man, I was pretty mad. I think I had spent all my money in the mall the day before or something... on games of course, or game-related merch... but I could be wrong. I always wanted to go back to see if that guy was still selling them.
But hey, one day I'll get as lucky as the bf: getting the cart for FF3 for $15.
