I remember Derek did the review for ME3 on the Wii U. While it was nice for EA to publish 3 on it, I would never recommend anyone play it for the simple fact that you have no emotional investment in it; considering most people with a Wii U might never have experienced ME1 or 2. Imagine watching "Return of the Jedi" if you have no idea what "Star Wars" is and never seen the first two?

scipioafricanus I don't know if the other versions of ME3 has this feature as well, but the Wii U version has a rather in-depth interactive comic that covers the story of the first two games that also lets you pick some of the key-choices you made in them. This both allows newcomers to get up to speed with the story, so they don't have to go in completely blind, and it allows those who have the two first games on other systems, like myself, to bring ME3 up to speed a bit with the same choices we already made, so the jump from one system to another won't be as much of a problem. It's not as good as if they'd port the full trilogy to Wii U, but it's better than nothing.

DS: Bratz Forever Diamondz Bridge Training FIFA Street 3 (still sealed, unopened) G-Force TangledWii: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10What's your policy on sealed games? Do you open them? Or do you keep them that way? Personally I opened everything when I was getting physical, but some games are worth a lot more money sealed if you want to sell them at some point.

Personally I opened everything when I was getting physical, but some games are worth a lot more money sealed if you want to sell them at some point. I keep them sealed until I get to playing them. As a rule I always try break seals open in such a way that I can preserve as much of the plastic as possible to have as an extra layer of protection for later, but I don't keep games sealed for the sake of maintaining a high resale value.

Good call, that's the best way to do it. Your collection is one of the most solids, have you considered making a record of it all in a virtual way, whether is through YouTube or other platforms?
I remember Mark wanted to do a VR museum with his, but probably didn't have a chance to get to it with all the unexpected career changes he went through.

I remember Mark wanted to do a VR museum with his, but probably didn't have a chance to get to it with all the unexpected career changes he went through. I've thought about it many times but I'm not fond of the work it would require. I have a lot written down and posting in forums like this helps keep track of what I bought and when, but I have no complete record anywhere so I'd have to compile info from many places and I still have to go through it all physically some day regardless. I never cared about being a collector, it just happened to become a lot of it over the years since I love games. I'm too busy actually playing my games to keep track of them and do youtubes and such about it!

Nice man, I actually would prefer to get the case and the manual because the cartridge itself is easier to replace. Diddy Kong Racing is a cool surprise.

Mario Tennis for GBC - $20. I think that will do me for a while.
The seller also had Game Boy titles in their original boxes, a few over $100. She also told there's been a renewed interest in Wii U...nope, not buying one, can't do it...
