I think it's a good idea to sell older game collection since we're getting a lot of remaster/port/remake lately. But, try to keep one or two of your favorite games for each console. Maybe someday you'd want to replay it.
@JustTheGems
@JustTheGems Год назад
100% agreed. Even when I didn't collect games at all, I kept a couple of my favorites for each console.

I'm currently trimming the fat from my collection, I've rationalised what I want to own and obtain now, much more quality over quantity.
@JustTheGems
@JustTheGems Год назад
I think that's the way to go. Having a BUNCH of games has honestly never been something I've been super into, so narrowing it down is the right move for me, too.

Gamecube version of Tales of Symphonia is still the best one as it was 60 FPS, every version since has been half the frame rate, even the so called recent "remasters". You got rid of the best version of that game.
@chronicallychic
@chronicallychic Год назад
Yeah, as far as I know all of the remasters have been of the PS2 port which is considered the inferior version. There's even dialogue missing ☹️
@JustTheGems
@JustTheGems Год назад
The frame rate has never really been a concern of mine. I've only ever played the PS3 version, so I'll never know what I'm missing. 😅
@hepwo91222
@hepwo91222 Год назад
@@JustTheGems just saying as strange as it is, the definitive version of Tales from Symphonia is somehow on that ancient 'Cube, all other versions were downgrades. Not just frame rates, but missing cutscenes too.

Yoshi's Woolley World never came to Switch, also very underrated platformer. Every stage in that game has a different design and no music tracks repeat in any level, amazing platformer.

This was so chill, and also heartbreaking at times (rip Sunshine, my love😭), but I loved hearing your reasons for getting rid of some of these! I don’t think I’ve ever sold a video game of mine before, but I think it’s super interesting to see others downsize/curate their own personal collections so they can make space for new experiences! Great video!! Also when you were talking about WiiFit, the image of the floor-to-ceiling WiiFit wall at one of my local game stores flashed before my eyes😂 never any balance boards yet hundreds of copies of WiiFit
@JustTheGems
@JustTheGems Год назад
I wish I loved Sunshine. I think if I'd played it when it first came out it would be a different story, but only playing it for the first time a couple years ago, it didn't land for me. And you can almost hear used game store employees' wills breaking when someone brings in Wii Fit and a balance board to trade...😅
@ladyreinaa
@ladyreinaa Год назад
Please keep the Gamecube version of Tales of Symphonia, the later releases have a lower capped framerate, gameplay adjustments that lower the skill sealing, and missing dialogue due to textbox formatting issues, overall the other releases aren't terrible and most players might not be bothered the differences, but they stack up and make a big difference. (Thank you for making great content! I'm glad to see another person looking to sell and curate their collection!)

Thinning the crowd a bit can feel really good! The only thing I would say as far as specific games go: The Baten Kaitos remasters do not have any English voices. From what I have heard the English VA is passable to outright terrible, but it is worth considering if you don't want to read everything.
@JustTheGems
@JustTheGems Год назад
Yeah, I've heard that about the Baten Kaitos games. While I generally prefer dubs, I decided I'm okay with the tradeoff on this one, at least.

I've sold about 50% of my collection and still selling some things. At first it was so hard to let go, especially the collector's/limited editions. But I just got really tired of my gaming room feeling so cluttered and full of stuffs. So many games that I don't even play or interested at, like what am I holding them for. lol
@JustTheGems

Yeah, same boat. Except I haven't sold 50% of my collection yet. I don't know what percentage I'm selling, actually, that would be interesting to calculate.

Seems reasonable. It's easy to go overboard when collecting, and it's good to know when to trim the fat. I would check out your listings, but I just went a little overboard myself at Retro Game Con, so I should stay as far away from your listings as possible. ;) good luck!

George Kamitachi has been asked directly in interviews why Muramasa hasn't been ported. There is something blocking a port behind the scenes he can't elaborate on publically, which is a shame. It 100% deserves a port.

Hi Brandon. Solid video but a bit of constructive feedback. I really believe this could have been condensed down into at least two videos instead of one 30 minute long video. I saved this so I can watch it during my treadmill run. While I appreciate company on the dreadmill, I'm not sure you want to be associated with that.
@JustTheGems
@JustTheGems Год назад
Thanks! In all honesty, this is already kinda condensed down... 😅 I've still got a bunch more consoles to sell games for. But hey, I watch RU-vid on the dreadmill too, so I fully endorse watching this there! 🙌

Oof, you'll have to pry Baten Kaitos GC outta my cold dead hands. The remaster has been fine so far, but it has frame rate issues and the lack of the dub is just criminal. I definitely get it though. Sometimes you've gotta make room for new stuff, and if you're not gonna play them, you might as well sell them to someone who needs them.
