I have an obsession now, a fetish if you will, but it's something that I have to do, something that I have this unstoppable driving force within me to achieve.

I'm going to collect EVERY PAL Dreamcast game that was ever produced!!!!!!

EVERY title!!!!

There's nearly 300 of them, but I'm gonna do it, that is my quest, my mission in life.

I just thought I'd let you all know, and thought it would make a nice change from "I'm going to collect stamps" or "I'm going to be a civil engineer" or "I'm going to climb Mount Everest".

I didn't look at it that way.

My post didn't win either, my newbie one.

Ahh nevermind I will win one day.

I'm looking more at:

300 Dreamcast games at £6.00 each = £1800

Over ten years that's 180 per annum

Which works out at about £3.46 per week.

Then in 10 years time assuming I haven't played them all to death and ruined them, I'll sell them for between £15-£20 each (depends how the market is, I may have to wait longer).

That's a massive profit of about £4200, just for having a great gaming collection. Then I'll be able to afford that nice PS4...

Your current fetish? What were tour others? ;)

300 Dreamcast games at about £20 each 300x20=£9000.

Have fun.....

Chu Chu Rocket. Now *there's* a game.

I don't know if I love it, or hate it.

It's quite possibly one of THE best/most annoying/fun /frustrating games EVER.

I do realise that about 25% of the games will not be to MY liking, but they will be worth something to someone somewhere at a later date, particularly if it's one of those few games that they require to complete THEIR collections.

*FM considers specialising in buying up Chu Chu Rocket in bulk, but can't bear the thought...*

ty. I went for the Fifth Element.

I'm currently writing a program that trawls these forums for 'Mr. Snuggly suggestions', and at the moment I have to write 4 topics on:

Sphincters
Wrong
Solo

and
WWF - Sport of Kings or Sport of Queens?

FM, you do know that half the games will be utter cack and really not worth playing, don't you?

Ah, but think of all those death threats you could send!

Congrats on the Fad, by the way. Snuggly must have noticed it. :0)
