I bought some sealed Dreamcast games...

I bought some sealed Dreamcast games not too long ago. I can't decide wether to open them or not. I could leave htem sealed and treasure them forever and just buy some cheap used copies of them for like 5 bucks, or I could acually play them. The games are:

Sega Bass Fishing
Sega Marine Fishing
Test Drive Le Mans
Ooga Booga

They probably aren't very valuable for collecting, but they are special to me

Leave em sealed for your own collection, but if you havent played ooga booga before unseal it.

Why buy games and not play them? I never understood that, Apart from greedy collectors/sellers who put em on ebay and ask for stupid amounts of money for them.

If you're a fan then surely you'd get more enjoyment actually playing the games than staring at a sealed package.

I've never played Ooga Booga before, but I could get that cheaply. I also have a sealed PSO v.2, but that's because Lik-Sang made a dumb mistake (I ordered v.1 from lik-sang and v.2 from play asia, lik-sang sent me v.2 instead of v.1). Right now I am keeping them sealed until I am ready to play them, but I'm questioning wether or not I should just get some used copies of the same games.

That's the way I feel too.

I collect games and systems, but I never leave them unopened. I don't collect games just to have them. I collect games because I like to play them.

I agree.

BUST OUT OOGA BOOGA MAN!

Wow, I feel like inviting the homies over tonight and having an Ooga Booga Partay.

Don't open them, just TDLM if you haven't played it... errr... elsewhere.

Still no reason not to open them, You can still get sealed copies of chu chu rocket on ebay. But that doesn't mean that you should waste money in buying a new one while you already have an open copy.

Unless these games were of a rare nature and by some chance you found them at a reasonable price and are planning to sell them on ebay to a couple of smegs that would quite happily pay through the nose, By all means keep em' sealed.

Other than that don't waste your money.

They really aren't worth anything sealed. Might as well just crack 'em open if you don't already own them. If you do, put 'em off to the side, just in case your other copy gets smashed or something.

Open them and make sure you treat the game alright, so that you can play it for years without having any scratch on the disc

I think I'll open them. Thanks for helping me make up my mind

. I know opening each game will be a magical experience, it always is with opening new Dreamcast games

STFU! and open em'

Caboose · Post by **Caboose** » Thu Dec 15, 2005 3:35 pm

I'll open them when I'm ready to play them

OMG I don't buy games because I enjoy playing them... I just realized it

I've had a sealed copy of Godzilla Generations (amongst others) and I never opened it becuase it was sealed.

Damn

This is one of the saddest excuses for a forum thread I've ever seen!

If you have the game already, leave them sealed.

If you've never played the game before, but want to, and can't wait to play the game, or can't wait to get an unsealed copy, open them.

If you don't want to play the games, why TF did you buy them?

Next you'll be asking if you should wipe your anus with your left hand or right hand, or if you should get it sealed...

...maybe then we wouldn't have to read this shite.

You should see some crap that comes up here sometimes, I've seen a lot worse than this topic (and I'm not saying that becaus ei mde this topic, there really is worse stuff out there). I only made this because I wasn't sure if these games would have any value in the future, therefore I wouldn't want to open a game if it's gonna be worth a lot.

You haven't been here very long have you. It could have been worse he could have posted a "What's your favourite DC game" thread or similar.

I bought some sealed Dreamcast games...

Leave them or Open them?
