I Bought A $45 Mystery Games Case Online...Here's What They Sent Me

Decided to pick up a random assortment of retro games on eBay to see what amounts to a dollar a game could get me.

Are you still rolling with the binder for your games?

The new version of this is the people that put all their switch games in one case holder.

I was still storing the games inside the original cases myself back then.

Retro collecting is becoming unaffordable. Spent almost $100 CDN on a complete copy of Zelda Spirit Tracks yesterday. It was like 30 bucks two years ago

3:00 The OCD in me is wanting you to go back and line those disks back up the way they were when you took them out 😅.

I never used a disc binder. I keep all my games in their original cases.

I'd love to see a Superman game that mostly deals with compounding rammifications of decisions you make in a choose your own adventure realtime action open world. Where all the villains, and your allies are all running in the background the whole time, and they change dynamically as you make choices. Make it playout like a movie that plays about 40 hours long to 100% and make a couple hour long tutorial in Smallville, where you are growing up learning about your powers. Most of the Superman content I've seen over the years focuses on morality, consequences, and relationships.

I am absolutely the guy who would've alphabetized his games in one of those binders. For a little while, I kept my Switch games in 60-cartridge Unikeep cases and alphabetized my games across multiple cases. Pain in the butt when adding a new game early in the alphabet, but I knew where each game was.

GT3 was basically a further refined Gran Turismo 2 HD mode graphics wise. (After you beat arcade mode it unlocked) GT4 really set itself apart as the leader in a whole new generation of racing games. I play it on emulation with just a couple small enhancements and it looks like a PS3 game. It's insane how within one hardware generation we took a leap that big just between the release of those two titles.

I kept all my PS2 games in a CD case like that back in the day. Still have them there stored somewhere in the closet.

My buddy randomly gave me an old 360 game I let him borrow over 10 years ago and all his games were still in the case. I guess he just never moved his old 360 and PS4 games out of the case, so they stay in there lol.

Sony is going to strike this because you're showing something they don't support anymore 😂.

I take care of my nephew, and he had a lot of his games (x box, x box 360, PS2/3/4) in several of these CD cases for about a decade plus. One week we went through, cleaned them and matched them up with the game cases which he had stashed around the apartment. Only ended up with a couple missing cases and discs. Also found that many games that were in cases were in the wrong ones. I've gone to the point of cataloging them on a spread sheet so when I take him out to game stores, we don't duplicate any. Most of his duplicates are on different platforms.

Splinter Cell on the original Xbox; I remember being blown away by the lighting graphics. Just being in awe. My favorite parts were as you crouched through vents that had small slivers of light come through, haha

My brother had a binder like this for his PS2 games, except it was also designed to hold manuals so it was only 2 games per page.

Sadly, he was one who threw away the majority of his game cases, so when he gave his games to me I kinda cringe at that. I have some motivation to one day buy cases for at least some of them.

[mutkaheki]

I always kept my games organized in the original case on the shelf.

[Matt]

Never kept my games in a binder like that. That was the best way to ensure they got scratched up over time, apart from just not putting them away at all.

[xbradx]

I still use a binder like this for my burned copies of games, translated patch games for use on original hardware, etc

[PastPresentFutureEndofTime]

Been using the PS2's HDD to backup and store PS1 and PS2 games due to lack of memory card space. Good way to still have the completed files and still be able to reply from start if you want with space on a card.

[spamoman]

I still have binders from that generation full of those games because my brothers and I didn't usually keep the cases, just the discs. I now regret every game case we threw out.
