What games do you have now that you have left sealed so far? Also, do you plan to open them anytime soon? (I know they're not worth much now.)
I have:
Astro Boy: Omega Factor (GBA)
Final Fantasy VI Advance (GBA)
Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection (Wii)

Well, uh, lots. Those of us who have used and abused egregious B&M clearances that Best Buy, KMart, Circuit City and the like have done in the past probably have a whole bunch.
We have gobs of PS2, Xbox and GC games that haven't been opened. In lesser amounts, GBA, PSP and 360. However, unlike the older stuff, we really don't bat an eye opening them to play them. The backlog and the desire to play older stuff means they likely won't be opened for quite some time though.
The only exception: any DS title picked up has been opened and played. I'm a sucker for DS and I like to try everything we get.

I have a Devil Summoner 2 with plushie unopened. The original Devil Summoner blows so I have no plan on ever opening this one. It also looks good sitting up there.
I also have three sealed Persona 3 games. The original version with the artbook and box, a sealed Persona 3 FES, and then another sealed Persona 3 FES with artbook and box when Amazon was selling them with the original Persona 3 packaging.
I actually have quite a few PS2 and DS games sealed. Some PSP games and PS3 games. Yggdra Union for the GBA is actually the only sealed GBA game I own(played it through emulation on the PSP instead of opening it up.) Can't save on the PSP though, so have to use save states, and then it just so happens they announced the PSP version later which played that.
*edit*
Oh yeah. Whenever I say original Devil Summoner, talking about Raidou Kuzunoha vs the Soulless Army.

Currently I have none that are completely sealed. I have one that is "quasi-sealed", Devil Summoner 2 for PS2. I opened the outer container to look at the Jack Frost plushie, but the actual game is still shrink wrapped.
There are times when I'll have a small pile of sealed games on my desk but I always break them out when I go to filter them into their respective libraries.
A couple of weeks ago, I helped my cousin build a media storage unit for his DS and GBA games and we must've gutted like 30 or 40 DS titles he had bought and never took out of the wrapper. :eek 2:

I'm actually trying to work through my sealed games/unfinished digital distribution games since I realized that I have too many and would rather not spend more money on them at present. I currently have waiting for me:
PSP:
Work Time Fun
Lego Indiana Jones
360:
Oblivion GOTY Edition (I'm almost afraid to open this one)
PS2:
Devil May Cry 5th Anniversary Collection (all 3 are still sealed)
Metal Gear Solid Collection (all 3 are still sealed)
Gamecube:
Resident Evil: Code Veronica
The list may look small now, but it was much bigger before...

Ayup. I have close to a 'couple' hundred DS games alone sealed. Thats not counting PS2, PSP, PS3, XBox 360, Wii. It only gets worse, but DS is by far the biggest culprit that I have.
I can't wait for DreamTR to post in here.

It's now into the thousands. My backlog literally goes back to the PSOne and Saturn. Sad but true.

I think I only have a few. For Dreamcast I have 2 Sonic Adventures sealed that I picked up at a flea market the other week. I don't thave plans to open it since I played the game so many other times. For Gamecube I have a copy of X-men Legends 2 I purchased when Target started there discounted aisle. Just never got around to playing that game. I also have a not for resale copy of Midway Classics 3 for Xbox that I got from Gamecrazy for renewing my MVP membership years ago.
Games I just haven't opened as of yet are Wario Land Shake It, Kirby Super Star Ultra, Secret Agent Clank, and Metal Gear Solid Essentials. All were purchased on sale, well clearance in the case of Secret Agent Clank, and are still on my backlog of games that I need to get around to playing. Generally that's my only reason for keeping a game sealed.
I may just keep X-men Legends 2 around though in the hopes it may actually be worth something one day. Maybe I should track down Stan Lee to seal the deal...

Same here.
I don't open a game until I'm ready to play it. If I'm interested in a game and it's on sale, clearance, or the price is finally right, I pick it up. Finding time to play all these games...that's another story.
The worst part is I can't play two RPG's simultaneously. That means if I'm stuck (or bored) of whatever current RPG I'm playing, it could take months before I finish it and start a new one (Tales of Vesperia is going on a year now).
It's a sickness, but still fun.

Same here... but I was trying to A) just talk about sealed games and B) only talk about the current gen. If we're talking just unplayed stuff, its well over a thousand easily.

Looking at my list, a video game crash might not be so bad after all. I still wouldn't have enough time to play all of these but atleast I wouldn't have any more new sealed games to buy, unless you count previous gens.

My backlog is all sealed. I don't think I've purchase a used or open game since the late 80s when I first started collecting. I guess when I hear "modern" I always think anything PSOne and newer. In any event, my 360, Wii and PS3 backlogs are pretty substantial as well, at least several hundred games at this point, all picked up at the sub-$20 level with the intention of opening and playing them when I get the chance, but at the rate I'm buying them, it probably won't be in this lifetime.
I have Devil Summoner 2 still sealed and I'm afraid to open it because (as said above) the first one wasn't very good and I'd rather not take the risk of opening a potential cash cow.

I don't look at them as sealed games anymore. Sealed games, to me, is a term used in selling. I intend to keep most of the new games I have, and those that don't pan out will be opened and played before they go... I prefer to look at it as prepaid consumption. Kind of like a fallout shelter pantry, without the implication of a dire emergency. :D
To answer; I couldn't say for certain. More than I can recall in one sitting for sure. I do have some surplus though... Both accidental and intentional (gifts, trading).
