After some cleaning up & counting recently I realized I had passed 450 boxed complete 2600 games. It starts getting hairy when almost everything you're missing are costing $75 & up.
The last $2000 I spent bought me roughly 15 games
I need to work on the Sears boxes to hit that 500 mark, and keep my prices down some if I can..
I really want to complete my 2600 collection.
Good luck! I am trying to get to 300 total 2600 games. But most of mine are loose or loose with manual.

These are my two newest games, just received in the mail this afternoon:
I've got some wants that are still under $50, and then I have quite a few Sears branded games to track down, but mostly all I need are high priced games. Collecting them CIB makes it a little harder.
I've sold off everything else I had though, besides for 5200, so now these are the only ones I collect. My 5200 collection is complete all CIB so I'm not spending much on that, besides for the homebrews as they come out. So I can throw pretty much all my funds to the 2600.
I'm thinking about adding the Vectrex in the mix eventually, since it's rather small, it shouldn't be so hard to buy them all in CIB form.

Did you get those from Matt (Tempest)? And if you did and don't mind me asking did you pay what he was asking?

Yes & yes.
It's interesting to note this is the third guy to find these things, all came from South America. The first was a few months ago, someone on AA bought one copy of each along with alot of other NTSC games, and then he offered on the boards there. I don't know if he ever sold or not though.
Then a guy on ebay, who had at least 2 Ikaris & 3 Motorodeos, maybe more? He's kept one of each for his collection & sold 1 Ikari & 2 Motorodeos so far. He may have more to sell. His have been going for the same price that Matt was selling for this third guy. The third guy sent Matt 8 copies of each, Matt kept one set, then the other 7 he's working on selling now.
I'm not sure if there are any more of them out there or not, but Matt seems to think this guy bought everything the original owner had. So after these are gone, probably won't see anymore around.
It's alot of money to spend if these turn into common games 6 months from now.
I think though, maybe a few boxes of these were purchased from Atari back in the day for some shop in SA, and these are probably all that exist. Only time will tell.
I just didn't won't to miss out on them, if these do dry up again.
It's crazy to think that some of Ataris own could be so rare!

My collection has changed again.
sold a lot of it, again, decided to focus on SEGA.
My SEGA collection is doing very nicely, just shy of 225 boxed Megadrive, and approx 50 boxed SEGA., 40 Saturn
I always seem to have plenty of games for all systems lying about anyway.
I decided to take this new step, of being even more focused, when I ran out of shelf space for my Megadrive titles. My handheld collection is doing quite nicely too, both Gameboy, Gamegear types, and game and watch types - they take up less space, and sit nicely alongside my calculators.
I see it more of an evolution in my collecting, becoming more selective, pruning a growing tree to use a similie, rather than the hatchet job i did to raise funds about a year and half ago.

I passed the 1900 game mark. Once I get the stuff from Antimind that we did a trade for.
Also passed the 300 game mark for the Atari 2600.
I need 1 more game to have 100 Intellivision game and 12 more to have 100 Saturn games.
