    Awesome collection - always enjoy the SNES videos!
    After watching one of your earlier videos, I bought Fifa 98 in mint condition for £35 and Michael Jordan in decent condition for £30. Happy to have them in my collection now. Retro collecting keeps getting more and more expensive!

    You have an incredibly impressive collection. Obviously we see it on the wall behind you but in breaking it down and highlighting specific games, it really shows how amazing it is. My biggest surprise was probably Beavis and Butthead, I remember playing that with my brother. We had the Genesis version as well and I remember liking it better. Great video as always, RG. Appreciate you putting in the time to research all this.

    Nice to know someone collects for the sake of the games rather than because of the potential financial profit it might bring. A lot of the fun is getting that bargain. But every game that goes out of a collection is a game no longer in a collection. Iv sold off loads in the past, and I still feel that pain to this day. A few years back, I picked up tornado outbreak on 360 for a few quid. It's current market value has flown up since then. To me, it's still a 3 quid game, though, as that's all I initially paid out for it. The only time I sell or trade games these days is to trade up or sideways for games i would rather have instead. Maybe one day I might have a clear out. But not today. Tomorrow's not looking too likely either lol

    Interesting video, cheers. I'm a PlayStation guy mainly and I actually bought the Castlevania Symphony of the Night special edition (with soundtrack and art book) brand new back when it was first released in the late nineties. Unfortunately I sold it a few years later while I was still young and dumb, as these days it often goes for £400-£500! I think the most expensive games I still own are also on PS1: Parodius, In The Hunt, Sonic Wings Special, Philosoma and The Adventures of Lomax (all PAL) seem to go for over £100 each.

I gave up collecting years (decades) ago and although I must've had about 200 SNES games not many had boxes. I'm still angry at Nintendo for putting them in cardboard boxes but there's nothing better looking in gaming than PAL Snes boxes.

    You certainly have invested wisely over the years as it's turned out, and I can't see the values dropping significantly as people will always want Nintendo stuff
    James Bond Jnr is hard to believe at nearly £50, it was panned back in the day, but probably means it didn't sell and hence the value
