Retro Video Games

[Uspshoosier 45,044]

I got all my old video game consoles and games out of storage a couple months ago and have been down a retro video game rabbit hole.   Cleaned them all up and started playing some.  NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube( my favorite), PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360.  Saw some setups and end goal is to have an area where I can display them all and have them all hooked to the same TV.  I want to get the rest of the old consoles I don’t have as well.   I was amazed at what some of those old games are worth nowadays. I have a PriceCharting App that tells you what the games are actually worth nowadays.   Needless to say I got a new hobby or hunting old retro games at Flea Markets, garage sales and other retro game places.  I don’t have any too crazy expensive but do have a few NES games I could sell on eBay for over 100 bucks .   If you have your old stuff put in storage and you have certain games you could be sitting on some old games that are worth a lot.   Most expensive NES game is worth 16,100 loose and it’s called Stadium Events if you had the box and manual it’s in the 32,000 range another one Little Samson is worth 2,200 range just the cartridge and way more with the box and manual.   If only you could find one at a garage sale. lol.    I’m glad I held on to my old stuff and didn’t trade it in back in the day for new consoles.   It’s been a fun hobby to get back into.  Any other retro game collectors?

Anyone familiar with the football pro series from sierra in the 1990s?  Way ahead of its time.

You're welcome for the Wii lol.

But I agree with @Uspshoosier on the GameCube. It's my absolute favorite as well. Newest console I have though is an Xbox 360 anymore. Been playing College Hoops 2k8.

Dreamcast is definitely on my list.    Anything Gaming is in the South side flea market by 465 and they have refurbished ones for about 130 the last time I was in there

Not familiar with that one.  What system was it on?

[OliviaPope40 6,445]

Mario Kart, Mario Party, and Super Mario 64.

Nothing better than NBA hang time for the N64. Probably one and hardest basketball games ever made

PC game.  Think from 1990 through 1998.  Allowed you to customize teams, edit players, even create your own plays.

I'm an old PC gamer and I still play games from the '90s.  I am glad that they are able to re-release these to play on modern systems.

Some of my favorites:

Doom 2, Phantasmagoria, StarCraft, EA NHL '92, NBA Live '95, Links 386...

Bought a stand up arcade machine a while back — has joust, gauntlet, rampage and defender.
