This is a question that has been bouncing around in my head for a while. How many other people out there who collect game soundtracks have one, or even more than one soundtrack for games you don't own?
Personally, I have three different examples of this:
Final Fantasy III - I own the soundtrack for the Famicom version, but I don't own any versions of this game at the moment. I did have the DS remake for a few years but never even got through the "intro dungeon" area. I recently gave it away to somebody I know from an online game because it was cart only. I won't get rid of the soundtrack because I do love the Final Fantasy series overall and like having the complete set of I-IX soundtracks on my shelf. Otherwise I'm not too impressed.
Einhander - I meant to pick this up 3 years ago, but never got around to it. I really loved the soundtrack though, and for some reason bought it before I ever got the game. I do want to buy Einhander at some point in the future, but it always gets sidelined. The music just makes me want to play the game more.
Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together (PSP remake/port) - I'm a long time fan of the Ogre Battle series, but don't own a PSP. I'd almost buy a PSP just to play an "improved" version, but not quite. I own the game on the Super Famicom and the US PlayStation port but have never managed to get very far into it. I don't own any other Ogre Battle soundtracks and bought this one on a whim. I'll probably buy the game sometime soon since it's down to $20 after little more than six months on the market, just in case I ever get a cheap PSP to play it on. It's good, and the bonus CD with a selection of Super Famicom tracks is a nice addition!
So, anyone else with similar examples in your own collections?
