I've been collecting over the years and managed to get some nice difficult-to-find titles here and there, but I don't just want to dump my list without asking others for theirs first.

My Fire Emblem Collection (I have every single Special Edition, Amiibo, Game, and DS' special editions)
The single most expensive game I own is probably Chrono Trigger for the DS.
📦ALL my Games are CIB across GBA, DS, 3DS and Switch.
🔸️GBA
*All three 'CT: Counter-Terrorists' Games
*TMNT (EXTREMELY RARE Boxed)
*Both PAL versions of 'Penny Racers'; The other goes under the name of 'Gadget Racers'
🔸️DS
*PokéMon HG/SS, both the Big Box versions with Poké-Walkers
*Solatorobo
*R4 Card
🔸️3DS
*Glitter Force and 'GF: Doki-Doki'. However, these are the Japanese 'Smile PreCure' versions
*Ever Oasis
(*I had 'Shantae: TPC' but sold it for £90 after buying it for £15)
🔸️Switch
*Limited Run of 'Power Rangers: Battle For The Grid' with Steelbook etc
*Limited Run of 'Scott Pilgrim VTW' once they release it...
@LeighDapa Nice, especially Solatorobo. That really is a rare one.
@Losermagnet I recently got round to finishing Dawn of Sorrow after having it for like a decade and it made me get the other two DS titles as well. Actually did really well, managed to find them both for about £35 each. Not boxed but for a physical cartridge it seemed okay. For you to have all the boxes though is really nice, I don't blame you for considering selling.

Not sure if I have any games I am particularly proud of per say. I mean, I am proud of my collection overall, but at the same time I wouldn't say I have anything too unique although I am sure some of them are harder to find for a decent price now such as TTYD.
What I mostly remember is goofs where I haven't quite been sent the game I am expecting despite the product page saying otherwise; for example:
-Chrono Trigger (DS) - First time it released officially in Europe and I was so excited to get it, it was one of the first games I brought when I got a 3DS (never owned a DS). However, I received a NTSC copy for whatever reason, though I do like the artwork.
-Beat the Beat: Rhythm Heaven Paradise (Rhythm Heaven Fever for everyone outside PAL). Brought it in the run up to Megamix's release, however the copy I was sent was French for some reason.
Some of my favorites in my collection are as follows:
-Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn CIB (Gift from my brother years ago, great game)
-Fire Emblem Path of Radiance
-Pokemon Heart Gold CIB with pokewalker
-Rayman for Gameboy Color CIB (someone brought this into the Game Xchange I used to work at)
-Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 & 3 for PS2 (GREAT fighters with so many characters)
-Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword Limited Edition bundle
-Kirby's Dream Collection special edition (Love the soundtrack it came with)
-Pokemon Black 2 CIB (Amazing Pokemon game)
-Dragon Quest IV for DS (My first Dragon Quest game!)
-Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (My first Castlevania, and still my favorite one)
@Maximumbeans its more the Dragon Quest games that get me. I love Castlevania, and there prices arent insanity. Dragon Quest though....it's odd. For how similar all the Dragon Quest games are I tend to love or hate them. 3, 5, 9, 11? Love. 2, 4, 6, and 7 i probably wont play again. But if i break up the set then OCD Beelzabub starts partying way too hard in my skull.
@Tasuki I am jealous of that. It's my favorite game, and i've got a cart of my own. Got it from a rental store liquidation back in the 90s. It has a ton of sentimental value to me.

Give me a heads-up if you're going to send a request please.
@Losermagnet That's how I mine. Back in the 90s when my local video got the next Gen stuff, N64, PS, Sega Saturn they sold off alot of their SNES, NES, Genesis, Sega CD and 32X games to make room for the new stuff. I got quite a few of my games that way.

I'm most pleased to own Terranigma and the manual. I bought it from a friend for £7 (no box) around the time the N64 was released in the UK. It's my favourite game ever.
Last year I bought a 3DS and picked up PAL Chrono Trigger on DS for £50 - the most I've ever paid for a game I think, especially used. I remember SNES games being £59.99 when I was a kid, but they were usually Christmas or birthday presents from my mum.
