- Romancing SaGa 2 (Super Famicom): Part 2 of the series, duh. If I don't like the games I guess I can resell them for more than $3.

- Romancing SaGa 3 (Super Famicom): I've heard a lot of positives about this one. I also heard tons of awesome music from it. I'll need to get translations though.
Your collection seems to be lacking Earthbound.

I am extremely disappointed.
IIRC, Earthbound is pretty expensive, especially if you're going for the box and manual. here it's priced at 90-334US$.
I'd say it's worth it, considering the fact that the Earthbound games are the greatest games in existence.
I don't even really like Earthbound so I don't really ever plan on getting it. Also yes it is very expensive, I thought about getting Terranigma as well but that too is expensive as fuck.
D':

Also, you have to get Super Mario RPG and Super Metroid.

Awesome games.
Super Mario RPG is also pretty expensive; I got it for $75 and it's still the most expensive game I've ever purchased. I don't know about Super Metroid, though.
Really? I got my copy of SMRPG for about $35.

Also, no SNES collection is complete without Super Mario All-Stars. I'd recommend Mickey's Magical Quest 1, 2, and 3 (the third one wasn't released in the US) and Goof Troop as well.

Wow and Terranigma goes for free over here. :V Had the German version English text, I could have snatched a copy for you but I doubt you're interested in a German-only version. Perhaps you can check a few offers in the UK.

C00l @ the SaGa games tho.
Updated list!

- Got pictures of the rest of my N64 collection which was given to me along with the N64. (see bottom of main list)

- Bought Majora's Mask which should be coming soon.
micoolyet? :>
Alright huge thread bump but I have an update, this is not dead...yet.

After moving and getting things back on track I finally was able to expand my collection a little more.

I finally bought me a NES and a Genesis so I thought I would throw the Genesis games in here as well.

The ones I recently got consist of these among a couple "shipping soon" ones on the main list on the first post

- Super Mario Bros 2 (US): This also came bundled with the NES buy along with SMB1 and 3.

- Tetris 2: I forgot to update this one long ago and have had it for months before I took a picture.

- Sonic the Hedgehog: Found this one at a goodwill for $1, I thought about selling it but I wouldn't get much for it regardless.

- Sonic the Hedgehog 3: Got this one on ebay for $2, I felt it necessary to complete the Sonic 1 - 3, S&K collection.

Pretty cool that you found Sonic 3 for only $2; I haven't looked around eBay, but most VG stores tend to have it around the $15 mark.
Tetris 2 was a staple of my childhood, it's nice to see people knowing about it!
Got a couple new ones in recently. I still need to take pictures of the remaining ones but these are the ones I got pics of.

- Sonic 3 & Knuckles (Genesis): Had to take a picture of the expansion resulting in an insanely long Sonic game.

SNES/SFC

- Super Street Fighter II (SNES): Got this one for $10, I gave in. :V


Genesis

- Altered Beast (Genesis): This came bundled with my Genesis when I bought that.

- Ecco the Dolphin (Genesis): The bane of my childhood. The first installment of perhaps the most difficult game series I've ever played. Got this for $15.

- Ecco the Dolphin 2: Tides of Time (Genesis): Shipping soon!

- Ecco Jr (Genesis): Shipping soon!

- Mortal Kombat (Genesis): Bundled with the Genesis when I bought it.

- Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Genesis): Bundled with the Genesis when I bought it.


I finally got the remaining Ecco games coming in real soon :D

At the current moment, I'm aiming for the 6 NES Megaman games and the Ninja Gaiden trilogy (the 3 NES games) before 2013 comes around.
