I was over at DP a few days ago, going through the forums like so many of us do, when I stumbled over a thread about a new forum for sealed game collectors.  While I don't understand the appeal of it, it's not my collection why should I care?  What amazed me, as it always amazes me, is that a community of people who collect video games would lash out at a smaller niche group of people who collect sealed video games.

The thing that really pissed me off about it was the arguements against it and the attmepts to make people collect the way others do.  I personally collect more nintendo stuff than sega, sony, or other stuff, but I don't try to tell people who want to collect genny games that what they do is dumb and that they should collect NES instead.  Why do people who collect a certain way, albeit out of the norm, get chastised for what they do?
