Taking care of cd games?

[CanX]

I've been collecting for the GC, but I'm not sure where to put the dvds. I've heard that after a while they will not work. How would we go about collecting these games.

To collect the games:
1) Buy the game
2) Put on shelf
3) Repeat

Won't cds stop working after 25 years even with no usage.

Nobody knows for sure. Yet.

well if theyre gonna stop working in 25 years theres nothing you can really do about it. i guess you could just never open or play the game but what fun is that. i just handle them very carefully and never leave them out of the case. its about the safest you can be i guess.

Actually, I wrap the CD in saran wrap and then put a condom on myself before playing... then when i'm done, I make an archive copy of the CD before putting the original back into a stasis booth...

Okay... I should have copywritten my Avatar idea... First DP, now SpamX. Next thing you know, our boy Legolas will do it too...




As for the GameCube discs... I just leave them on the roof of my car.
