    I only collect misprints if they are included in whatever other subset I'm collecting for. So for instance if I'm trying for a complete demo collection and one of the demo's has two different covers(one normal and one misprint) I'll get them both. But I don't collect misprints just for the sake of collecting misprints.

    I don't seek then, but I've owned them here and there, but it was famous(infamous) stuff. The latest was Resident Evil Reveliations for the 3DS, and I recall having the way highly printed FF7 screw up. I wouldn't be surprised if there was something else but I don't look for it as I see no value in it.

    I don't seek these kinds of things out, but would love to keep hearing about the ones you find! It's a pretty neat subset idea.

    Wow it would suck to buy a rare sealed game only to have it turn out to be one of these fuckups.

    The best part about it is that no one will ever know.

    I intentionally purchased the Xbox360 LEGO: Lord of the Rings that was supposedly being recalled because the game disc was labeled a Demo Disc even though it was the full game. There was no price difference between it and any other version, so I thought what the hell, why not.
    But I don't intentionally seek them out or collect them and I would be disappointed if I were to find one by accident. I spend enough on games and don't care to buy anything twice.

    I recently found out that ff7 has tons of different misprints i recently found a black label with a miss spell on the back. Turns out it was the second rib of the game to

    FF7
    Yes there are quite a few with that game

    1) floating i
    2) double Sephiroth
    3) meteor on disc 2
    4) spongebob supersponge on disc 3
    5) greatest hits/black label
    6) incomplete chocobo disc 1 (found on some double Sephiroth copies)
    7) incorrectly cut page
    8) Upside down page

    I think that's all of them

    I don't think it was brought up, but Super Mario Bros 3 the screen caps on the back of the box don't exist in the game since they were test/beta images someone screwed up and used.
