>english scalpers made it impossible to buy any old pokegames for normal prices
I really want to have a vintage pokemon game in my collection. At least one.
And i see that japanese ones look amazing as display piece at least.
Is it a good idea to get japanese ones? I don't want them to skyrocket in price making it impossible to get.
I wanted to buy an old boxed Red version. I see they cost as much as current Nintendo Switch ones with all booklets and cardboard.

first best post best?

That has already happened with a lot of old jap games especially the old Pokemon games, since a lot of people have had the same idea.

I guess but they still can be found in good condition for a modern Nintendo Switch cartridge price.
I don't mind getting it for that. I value such game more than AAA-game.
>homosexual wants to buy some shit he can't even play
anon you don't even play games
>Me good "collector"

You aren't buying anything of any value. It's a fricking decoration, and you're supporting the cancerous fricks who bought the game boxed for 5 bucks from super potato and resold it to you for 60.
I play games. Hell, I play them in Japanese, it isn't hard. Don't buy any though, I'm not a moron.
>You aren't buying anything of any value.
did you even read my post
>I play games.
doubt
>homosexual wants to buy some shit he can't even play
They'll skyrocket eventually, they're already 10x more than they were a few years back.
>You bad "scalper"
>Me good "collector"
I don’t fricking card what you do, butthole. Make your own fricking choices.
What made you so pissy, anon? You can talk to me.
congrats on making the prices of jap games skyrocket
fricking poser
Holy cope.
If such questions make incels go bonkers, I'm going to invest in Japanese games now for sure anons because i'm doing the right thing.
Do it, buy Japanese videogames. Their argument is basically summed up like me this “after I buy a game, nobody else should be able to buy it because muhh market value”
>Calling other people incels
>Wants to buy video games as "display pieces"
Yeah, I'm sure girls love that shit.
>I'm gonna buy game, I'm not going to play it, just have the box around for decoration, I can't read Chinese or some shit
Just buy a fricking poster, moronic etsy bullshit or print out an image and be done with it. Having an honest to God game but only using it as shelf candy is moronic.

There you go, here's your shelf candy
I used to be coomlector and after quitting spent a lot of time reflecting on why I felt the need to coomlect. I eventually just settled on the simplest answer: autism. For a few years my special interest was coomlecting old video games. I eventually moved on to painting pictures of my neighbor and haven't bought a single retro game since.
Is your neighbour hot?
>I eventually moved on to painting pictures of my neighbor
Does the neighbour know about this?
are they displayed in a basement shrine with candles?
had literal years to buy them decides to do it now cries
>had literal years to buy them decides to do it now cries
what language is this
English
>display piece
the only thing worse than a scalper is a collector
So the general consensus is that what you plan on doing is pretty gay
yeah but i just bought all 3 first games anon.
Well that's pretty gay
The cartridge isn't even red? Mine's American and Red.
>display piece
Not treading any new ground here, but I want to reiterate that you are the problem.
>Is it a good idea to get japanese ones?
Only if you want people to laugh at you for being a shelf collector EOP homosexual.
>EOP homosexual
No, no, no Anon. People who learn Japanese to consume media are the homosexuals. Get your facts straight.
I can concede that everyone involved is a homosexual, but the only homosexuals who should be buying text heavy Japanese games are those that can read them.
Not the "display piece" homosexuals.
Frick you I'm going to buy all of the ones that are remotely popular and hoard them like a dragon hoards gold. In a decade I'm going to use the profit to buy a nice boat.
aren't you too fat for boats though? or is the boat just going to be a display piece
I bought a Japanese Red cart years ago while trying to learn Japanese because the grammar used in Pokemon games is apparently very basic. I gave up quickly however.
Kana only games aren't a good choice for learning. You're better off with something more modern that has furigana.
Games are a bad way to learn a language from 0, but they are a good way to practice after you have a solid foundation.
This is also true
In any case, at least you had the intention of playing it which is miles better than the absolute homosexual that is OP.
What about people who don't learn that countless millions of people have learned Japanese for reasons other than playing video games? Surely such insecure ignorant fricks can't possibly be homosexuals. Right?
OP here.
Holy shit what a hilarious butthurt from poorgays.
Thanks for making me sure to buy that.
I might start collecting vintage pokemon games before it is too late.
Gotta invest fast.
the lack of self-awareness holy shit
I had a set, r g b y (i think?) Either way sold em to a poke fan i was friends with at work for cost. I know there are diffrences and memorizing the menu would be easy enough but i just kept my english stuff since its worth more to me.
Bait… or moronic?
Im buying japanese games in bulk going to get an easy 3x selling these to dumb coomlectors
You're stealing games out of a starving Japanese kid's mouth. Shame on you.
I don't see the point of buying old Pokemon games. I have my old Pokemon Red. Why go out and buy someone else's old copy? I don't get it.
>amazing as display piece
>saving Pokemon games from scalpers
>by buying Pokemon games from scalpers
Based moron
Why do you need a display piece for your room if no one's coming over?
Sounds like you don't know what to do with your money, try to give back to your parents or people who've helped you. You'll get more satisfaction out of that than purchasing something to collect dust.
>And i see that japanese ones look amazing as display piece at least.
You're AS BAD as the ones inflating the prices.
>another anti ownership thread
have a nice day subhumans
I love owning things.
I despise EOPs driving up prices because they need a cardboard box containing a game they are unable to read and have no intention of ever playing.
You can be pro-ownership and still believe that games are meant to be played.
Pokemon gays deserve to suffer
I want a complete version of Blue(j), but I actually want to fricking play it, not have it sit on a shelf like some YouTuber idiot.
I hope that scalper wins
I'm not sure which is worse, but part of me is happy watching a scalper take a dipshits money. On the other hand, that dipshit just dipped shit onto the median price of whatever overpriced wall ornament he purchased.
>Saving Japanese pokemon games from scalpers
I know a guy who buys bulks of red/blue/yellow/green carts, all regions, and looks for legit Mews in them. He says he has a way of telling if they were genuine or game shark generated
>GameShark generated
People copy saves from computers onto rby carts these days, legit mews are probably long gone, 90% of the batteries are dusted and probably replaced if they even save at all, and if they don't save then there's no save game on the cart. I'd be more worried about those batteries leaking on hundreds of pokemon pcbs if I were him.
>Poketrash
After what happened with the Gigaleak, i could give less of a damn about any lost pieces of trash wiped out from GF's bum.
Imagine just mostly snagging Game Freak and A-lister EAD garbage instead of other secondary Nintendo companies and MICROSOFT.
Go frick yourself, Clark.
Cry.
