    I’m excited to see the changes! Honestly switching things up is how I ended up here myself. I went having from a room I never used, to moving all my game stuff into it and setting up a ‘game room office’, to spending almost all my time in that room and starting this UA-cam journey. I hope making those spaces feel how you want them to is a fun adventure!🎉🎉

    Good to see man. I spent the last year basically making my new collection. I got rid of the games that meant nothing to me and held onto the ones I had connections with. You'll feel better when it's gone. I'm glad you are enjoying the new job!! I bet that is most of our dreams to own or manage a game store!

    Pac is back! 110% respect for you doing this my friend, and you’ve heavily encouraged me to tackle Collection 3.0 moving forward. As I go for completing the GameCube collection, I will be weeding out those games that I bought for the heck of it across various other platforms, and know I’ll most certainly never play. Fantastic video man, and also glad to hear your journey at the Video Game Cavern is going well!

    I completely understand what you're saying about having a disconnected space within my moving video whenever I moved house and had an opportunity to have multiple rooms I dedicated one to be clean and chill and the other room to be my library and filming space it's enabled me to relax in a uncluttered space to just relax and play some games definitely a win awesome video man can't wait to see more content

    Fascinating video. I am about to turn 50! About a month from now. While I would love to hoard video games from any number of systems, the reality is I really don’t care about any system other than PS1. The PS1 was a huge part of my college (and immediate post-college) life and if I am going to spend the time and money collecting for any system, it’s going to be that one. In my mind, it feels like I collect for that system for me, and other systems for everyone else. If that makes any sense? I no longer want to collect for other people. I want to collect for me.

    Bro, I should really sell some of my game collection, I just made a big financial decision and bought a nice PC to follow my passion for creating and recording music, as well as making videos. I could probably make up some of the cost of this investment by selling some of my game collection, it's nice eye candy, but I honestly don't really play a lot of it... I tried getting my kids into retro games, but they are 13 and 20, kinda into other stuff now.
    I don't know, I'm wrestling with the thought of this, like, I'd hate to miss out on truely nostalgiac stuff or regret selling something, but I'm also turning 40 this year, I'm not always going to have all this space, either... it's tough man. Best of luck in your personal journey, Andy!

    • @Pacmancase
      @Pacmancase  7 місяців тому +1

    I suggest getting rid of games you don't play. Get the best of each console. The other thing is don't regret once selling it. Getting it back will be costly and so be wary of that.
    For me, I just collect weird, niche and awesome games for each console/handheld. I have no intentions to complete a set.
