Title: Collection Value Post by: CatchFiveBats on November 13, 2005, 06:31:26 PM I don't know if anyone else wants to do this, but I totalled up the value of all the games in my collection using the price guide in Video Game Collector, and it came to $3,558. Gamespot said somewhere around $12,500. Gamespot sucks.

I think my collection was valued around $20,000 or something like that. Highly doubtful but if anyone ever questions your collecting practices you can show them that and it will shut them up for a while.

A long time ago i wanted to see how much some of the rare games i knew about where worth so i checked by ading them to my IGN collection and they were worth 20$ a piece which discouraged me to realize the price system was just a boradbased value depending on certain variables. Mostly relating to age. My IGN info: 335 TOTAL GAMES 108 NES 32% 31 PS 9% 29 N64 8% 25 PS2 7% 24 SNES 7% 24 Xbox 7% 22 Genesis 6% 18 PC 5% 13 DC 3% 11 GCN 3% 9 GB 2% 8 GBC 2% 6 GBA 1% 4 Ody2 1% 3 Coleco 0% Favored platform: NES Favored publisher: Nintendo Favored developer: *None (no company) Estimated value of collection: $6,198.13 IGN Editors' avg. score: 7.9 izret101's avg. score: 8.5 Title: Re: Collection Value Post by: den68 on November 14, 2005, 12:10:27 PM well let's see... with the games I've got listed here plus the few hundred more Xbox, Gamecube and PS2 games I've yet to add I'd estimate... that it would take me too freakin' long to figure it out.

Yeah I was kind of thinking that when I saw that you had posted in this thread. - Zac Title: Re: Collection Value Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on November 15, 2005, 06:59:44 PM I'd say bout five hundred bucks.
