    Gotta say, as much as I think that they are gonna rise in price, I think that there are more games that you need to mention: fire emblem three houses, xenoblade 2, super mario 3d all stars, and more

    I will say that borderland collection and BioShock collection are not complete on cartridge. They require an online download to further play. For physical collectors these 2 games aren't the best long term. Borderland does have the first full game so that isn't the worst if you really like the first one. But I heard BioShock is just better on PS or Xbox physically

    • @Switchbored
      @Switchbored  Před 3 měsíci

      Yes you are correct, you need the download codes for some games which does unfortunately slice the cartridge up. Still great games though, ive been playing borderlands on switch and it plays fine to me

    So, if every collector starts to speculate on the rarity and market value, who's gonna buy those games in the future if each of them already have copies of them? Surely, I bet you the next generation of games won't give a damn about physical media anymore.

    • @Switchbored
      @Switchbored  Před 3 měsíci +6

      Depends who you are. Physical gaming is a way to keep games forever as long as you take care of the box contents. Digital gaming is the future absolutely, but there will always be people who want physical editions of anything. Like myself, I want to hold and look at box art, not a digital thumbnail jpeg of a game on a menu screen. Its the whole point of being a collector. To horde and resell when the value of a collection goes up. Its a gamble but its also an investment. Plus growing up with physical games from the likes of gamecube, n64, gameboy etc. Its in my nature to go for physical. I cant see physical going anywhere entirely soon, maybe after the next gen of consoles, sure

      Guarantee you that all these switch games will not increase in price over time and many of them will get cheaper. There is too much speculation and buying with intent to flip later and try to time the market. If ever a game starts to jump in price, there will be thousands of copies waiting to get listed. There will be a few exceptions, naturally. But on the whole, those of you putting thousands of dollars into switch games thinking you are being smart, are not.

      @@warehousedave7937that is fine but I said the same thing about all my NES, SNES,Genesis,PS1, PS2, GameCube and Dreamcast games that I owned when these systems launched. I traded, sold or gave away all of these systems and games. I was lucky enough to get a Dreamcast and few games cheap and was gifted a GameCube and Gameboy advance with complete games in box of some popular titles but still missing some of the rare games I owned. If i would have kept all my system and games, would be sitting on a goldmine today.
      The Nintendo Switch will go down as the most collectible system for physical game than majority of consoles ever sold. Most of the first party games and JRPGs will hold their value and majority will go at or above retail down the line with some of the more niche 1st, 2nd and 3rd party games reaching triple digits easy after a couple of years. There will of course be a majority of games that some speculators thought will rise in value but will drop like turd and never go up. Looking at you Persona 5 tatica or Fire Emblem Warriors!! Games like Another Code Recollection and Advance Wars 1&2 reboot camp will be the ones that go up due to small print runs only on switch and not great sellers.

      Yeah Bioshock 1 is a masterpiece. Ive played through Bioshock infinite to and thought it was great, however my memory of the game is vague so id like to revisit it. Bioshock 2 is the game I never finished in the series as it didnt click with me back in the day, however i think ill give it another chance.

    • @Switchbored
      @Switchbored  Před 2 měsíci

      When nintendo stops distributing games from systems, they most likely rise in value depending on how popular a game is. The more popular the game, the less likely to rise in value. With the death of physical media in the coming years, more and more people will be looking for physical copies of media. Because well digital is expensive and you dont own anything after purchase.
      Nintendo are notorious for having games from past systems skyrocket in value. Mostly because of nostalgia and nintendo collectors. Its just a thing that happens.
