Hello fellow DPers!
I finally hit a milestone- I have amassed 101 different NES games! I can't help but be curious as to what everyone else thinks of my collection, so I'm making this thread. :)
I've attached some pictures, but figured I'd list them out as well because a few aren't too clear.
My primary objectives for collecting so far have been:
1) Get games I want, that are good, for a fair price
2) Get rarer games if they're still fun to play and not exorbitantly pricey
3) the occasional random trade/curiosity/nostalgia factor resulted in some of the more common/crappy stuff
So, on a scale of A (pretty good) to F (teh suck), please let me know how I stack up!

My games are:
1. Adventure Island 2 (w/box)
2. Adventure Island 3 (complete in box)

I agree, A- from me also for the same reasons. Good games, it's obvious that you bought for fun value over simple price -- I respect that.

Nice collection. Add Micro Machines, it's my favorite and you will love it.

Cool! I feel so validated... :)
I do agree about Micro Machines; I've played it before and it is pretty fun. It's not terribly common around here, but I'll remain vigilant in my search.

3) the occasional random trade/curiosity/nostalgia factor resulted in some of the more common/crappy stuff

Well given the critiria:
1. A. I don't know, were the games you own on your list?
1. B. Were they a good price?
2. Again were they a good price?
3. Were they good trades?

I'll give it an I currently.

Lolo 3 with box is probably pretty good.
I thought I was getting a Lolo 3 cart and manual from a store, but I got home and realized it was only the cart and the cover of the manual. :(

I do not get the whole "buy for collection". I would rather buy a game and only keep it if it's decent. If it isn't sell it.

Fair enough in years and years after our lifetime they maybe the new currency; however, I would not benefit as I would be dead, lol.

Are you sure it's only 101 games and not 102? Number four "4. ArchonArkanoid (w/paddle)" sounds like it's two different games. Archon and Arkanoid.

Anyways. Great library of NES games. Most of the games on the list are good games, and not too much filler. Castlevania, Castlevania 2, Super Mario Bros 2, Zoda's Revenge, Faxanadu, Zelda, Zelda 2, and The Magic of Scheherazade are must have games I'd recommend getting and would give you a near perfect NES collection.
