Nice choice. Check out all of the Ogre Battles, Personas, Sky Gunner(not really an atlus title), and Kartia.Quote:
I'm also trying to play as many Atlus titles as I can whenever possible. Go to Atlus.com and click on GAMES, they've got quite a nice catalogue of games, almost all are very interesting
And if you have an import ready psx, check out DoDonPachi.
I'll collect for any system. Mostly Japanese games, though. I only collect by system and region because I like the organized look they have when they're lined up on a bookshelf.
Meh...I go after fast paced action games, English or Japanese. I like to import fighting games like the Guilty Gear series or something like that...
...I don't have a specific favorite genre. I generally like a bit of everything, though I seem to have little time now to complete anything that consists of RPG caliber. ;)
Collections are fun but can seriously get out of hand.
I work with a guy, I think collecting games is getting in the way of his life. The guy has a disgusting large colelction of games for all platforms. 1000s, litterally. ALl of his dresser drawers are emptied out and filled with games, DVD racks upon DVD racks filled. Truely sick.
The worst part is that he doens't play nearly half of what he buys. He works 2 full time jobs to pay for everything, mooches off of his girlfriend and lives with her paying no rent, all of the money towards games. And recently, I actually looked at a pile of stuff he was picking up. Things such as Barbie for NES and SNES Porky Pig games were scattered through out. He just buys anything that he doesn't have.
mostly i collect series i like .. and a lot of that is nostalgia driven. to wit:

i tend to go back and buy the import version of a game i really liked for my collection. i went back and bought the import suikoden 2 but i don't plan to buy the import suikoden 1 or 3. (i like them, just not quite *that* much.)
i have a large collection of saturn imports but that's not something i'd consider a "collection" because i just bought them to play. to me "collection" implies games you have around like as trophies or art or knicknacks.
i'm probably most obsessive about phantasy star.
after that probably persona, where i have every release in both regions, although my persona 1 import is "the best" and i'd like to get another copy. but i don't really mind having "the best" games in general, honestly. but that's kind of a special case.
i also bought rockman megaworld, then the euro megaman wilywars, and also rockman 1-3 on PS1 when they came out. don't have the famicom carts though, and my NES carts are bare. it just depends on what i think is cool or want.
Not many.. good ones I guess.. and PC games since you really can't sell them for much anything.
I collect used games that are under $20. That may be a little broad, that that accounts for about %98 of my gaming purchases over the last two years.
I don't have much of a collection. If I see a game I want, I buy it. I hardly sell games, but if I don't even touch it, I sell it. Such is the case for my N64.
I don't collect in general. I'm a couple games away from a complete "Tales of" collection, though, so I'll probably finish that off and get the new ones as they come. I just got Tales of Fandom, and now I need Narkiki Dungeons.
