My goal for this is yeah is to downsize my collection to the point where there is no game on my shelf that I can look at and say "There is no way I'm ever going to play that one." Or "Why am I keeping this game? I didn't like it."
Quality over quantity in other words.
Also I'm wrestling with the idea of purging some of the retro stuff. I never play the physical copies. I'm happy to emulate. Yeah, I'm that asshole now. Deal with it.
There's only so much room in my house and showing off my games to guests the once in a blue moon that I have guests is not justifying owning the games.
I think I can cut my collection by about one third this year and without any remorse.

GrayGhost81 used a bad word D:
i'm slowly switching over to quality vs quantity too, already did that with my gamecube collection. also ditched all my intellivision stuff because i never use it ever. the only system i'm not doing that on is N64 which i still want a complete CIB set for

I have one specific goal in mind. To have my collection real 730 individual pieces of software. I don't mind duplicates too much as long as there is a reason for it. Like I have Final Fantasy IV in four different formats. In its SNES original format, GBA (for portability) DS for the "enhanced" remake and PSP (so I could get The After Years without paying $40 for it)
My reason is this: I had someone ask me if I've actually played all of my games. Sure I said...wait, no I haven't. The majority, sure, but certainly not all. So since I hit my 2013 goal of 600 I needed a new goal. If I played two games a day for say 30 minutes, it would take me an entire calendar year to play them all (hence the 730)
What I'd like to do is document it, track it and make it some sort of public specatacle. Something that I can do to draw attention to some sort of cause. I don't know which one or how to go about doing it but I'd like to do it in a constuctive manner that could maybe raise some money for charity. And I'd get to play my games in the meantime. Win-win!

Today I'm going to trade out what might be my only noteworthy Sega Genesis game (Rocket Knight Adventures). Thus, the seal has been broken, my goal is to have less than five Genesis games and no hardware (except the Nomad) by the end of this weekend.

It's not that actually. Saturn and Dreamcast are two of my favorite consoles in fact. It's just that for whatever reason I've almost never had a Genesis hooked up, and thus I never play it. I didn't have one growing up so there's no nostalgia factor. Most of the games I own are junk. Those clamshell cases, although awesome, take up so much space on the shelf it's ridiculous. Last but not least I can emulate on the Dreamcast so I still get that console feel.
I did a lot of work reorganizing my shelves this weekend. It may seem like I'm trolling this thread with "my goal is to get rid of everything" but I think organizing/downsizing is as much part of the hobby as hoarding every single piece of plastic you see out in the world.
So I have three of these shelving units and I'm trying to cut it down to two. I cut down on the Nintendo console cartridges dramatically and pulled all the Genesis stuff. The theme for I'm trying to keep in my head is "only the best." I'm only keeping games that are either must have classics, games I love or have an overwhelming nostalgia factor, or games that are just rare/valuable.
Here's what I did:
Before:
[img width=450 height=800]http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h32/grayghost81/IMG_20140330_152202_399_zpsdabdfb9c.jpg[/img]
After:
[img width=450 height=800]http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h32/grayghost81/IMG_20140330_162107_863_zps4168770c.jpg[/img]
I do believe it's a lot cleaner now. I like the way the Nintendo console games are now in chronological order so to speak. Most importantly I have a little room now. I'm not typically getting in new NES carts for example but if I do, I can fit a few more and it still looks nice. Not pictured are my Skylanders figures which I put next to the Dreamcast games and that made it look even better.

Mortal Kombat
Lol
You laughed but so far it is working!
The first portion of the year i have managed to pick up some goodies and at decent prices!
Mortal Kombat Electronic Pinball sealed. (45 shipped)
Mortal Monday preorder kit (29 shipped)
MK Mythologies Tiger Handheld(PAL) sealed (~40 shipped)
MK Tournament Edition for PS3 complete (~75 shipped)
I've managed to wrap up the bulk of the big ticket US items. I believe i only have 3 items left that could get pricey. 2 of them i have seen go up for auction already this year. Everything i have left to get stateside i should be able to grab for under 10-20$s with patience

First Priority: Go through my full collection and update owned list. I know I have a ton of PS1 games not listed on this site.
I just organized full NES collection yesterday so that is up to date.
Counted 64 collection and there are 5 games missing on this site, ughhhh.
Game Goals:
- SNES RPG's
- Quality NES Games
- Been on a Sega Saturn Importing kick lately, so add more of those as well.
- Find out names to some of the Japanese SNES games I own.
- Reach 2,500 games
- Go to more Flea Markets & Yard Sales!
