Some games now go for over £1000 boxed and complete in good condition! What started off as a cheap hobby has become very expensive, even some cartridges on their own go for well over £100. Long gone are the days of picking up Super Nintendo games in charity shops or at car boots with your loose change. But one thing that isn’t fun is the rising prices. Over the years I have continued collecting SNES games and it’s been a lot of fun. That’s when I started to make good on the things I used to talk about with my big brother all those years ago. I snapped them up and bought an old SNES off eBay. When I was a little older, I saw some old Super Nintendo games in a charity shop – and they were only a fraction of the price I remembered them being when I was younger. But one thing I always remembered my brother saying was how much he would have liked to have a full collection of Super Nintendo carts and how it would be great to have a library of Nintendo games. Sometimes I would sit watching, waiting for my turn on games like Super Mario World, sometimes we would work together playing games like Turtles in Time and other times we spent hours competing against one another at Mario Kart and Super Tennis. I used to sit for hours on my brother’s bed playing Super Nintendo games. I grew up as Luigi, yes, I was the younger sibling, player two. Hi, I’m Jane and I love collecting and playing retro games!
