Collecting Goals for 2012

[Fleach]

Since there's only a few months left for 2012 my goals are to get started on my SNES and Genesis collections and find a power cable for my Genesis. I'm going to a swap meet this weekend so I think I'll complete at least one of those goals.

I think 5-10 titles for each console is a good way to kick start those collections.

I'm hoping to get to 500 NES games by the end of the year. I'm currently at 485, with one more coming in the mail. It's getting a lot tougher to find stuff I don't have.

I wanted to get to 300 by year's end. I've already done that, months ago. If I can just round up to the next 10 mark (which would be 330) in the next 4 weeks I'd be happy. Christmas should help.

Since the database dump, I don't remember all the goals I noted.  But I think the only one I'm still missing is to hit 100 Atari 2600 games,  I have some coming, but may come up short by just a few.  That's alright.  I had some big CIB SNES and N64 purchases, added some rare handhelds, and started aiming for the Atari 7800 series.  I must have been distracted.  Almost all my Atari's have to purchased online anyway.

A Casio Loopy, or some rare Japanese obscure console nobody knows again. Then again, since I got a 2008 Honda Accord, my collection progress has slowed.

I didn't do too bad considering I spent more $$$ elsewhere and nearly sold my budding 3DS collection back in June (started collecting again for it in November after a hiatus).

-Get to 100 3DS Games (I'm at 90)
-Get to 10 PS Vita Games (I'm at 9)
-Decide what to ultimately do with my handful of "rare" games for other consoles I don't collect as much (I ended up selling a bunch, but not quite all, of my rarer modern releases, netted a nice $500 off of a handful of games)
-Get to 600 games overall (at 598)

-Get to 100 3DS Games (I'm at 83)
-Get to 10 PS Vita Games (I'm at 9, so I can get this one done)
-Decide what to ultimately do with my handful of "rare" games for other consoles I don't collect as much (I ended up selling a bunch, but not quite all, of my rarer modern releases, netted a nice $500 off of a handful of games)
-Get to 600 games overall (at 590, still maybe doable but I'll probably fall just short)

TSG, how many sports titles do you have? I know you were at a decent amount previously.

Up to 526! Take that, goals of my past self.

You know, I haven't that, but just going through my list I can guesstimate that about 60% of my games are either sports or racing - but that's using a really liberal definition. So maybe around 350. I should take the time to count...

So as of now I have not achieved my goal of half of all genesis carts.  i didn't really get anywhere as a matter of fact. Although I did pick upa few 32x games, and I kinda of took a detour at finding SNES games that are on my want list. Oh well.

I managed to pick up Castlevania games, I did begin with only One (Simon's Quest). So I consider this a moderate success. I was able to pickup Castlevania(NES), Castlevania III, And Super Castlevania, Castlevania 64, and Castlevania Bloodlines.  I still have the hard as hell to get for under 100 dollars Castlevania Dracula X( I might just bite the bullet, and pay for it at ebay prices, because I want it so bad.) Other than that, Castlevania chronicles will be the next hardest. btw I am only picking up Castlevania Games I have the systems toplay them on. So the DS games will probably be my last games I pick up, since I haven't bought one yet.  All the other Castlevania games seem easy to pick up, so I am sure I will be able to accomplish this in the next year. I will be counting the digital download games as well.

I know the goal I have for next year is Mega Man series for NES, and SNES. All the Mega Man X games. I will be counting the digital download games as well. I got a ways to go, and got some of the most hard to find items in this series ahead of me. wish me luck!

its great to see so many people achieving goals on here, and here is to all of us who trying to reach any goal we have into the next year.I don't think it really matters how long it takes. : )

as I see its only a failure if you give up your goal.

Well, time to set some goals.  I think I am gonna try and collect all the Konami silver box games CIB for the NES.  I have Gradius on the way, so that will be one down.  I am gonna also try and get another NES Mega Man CIB.

You only have 14 hours left to meet this goal.  You better get busy.

I also have a CIB Gradius.

But the C and the I are not Gradius.
