Nintendo Games Collection - Worth Selling?

    I've got a decent collection of games for the NES, SNES and N64 that have been kept in storage for the last few years and I'm wondering whether it would be worth selling them off? What kind of money are games going for at the moment?

    I was big into Nintendo when I was younger but can't really see myself playing these games again in the near future. Should I sell them now or would they be better off staying put and possibly (hopefully) appreciating in value over the next few years?

    You should DEFINITELY sell the SNES games, of no use to anyone nowadays, worth very little and only taking up space in your hourse I'm sure. I'd take these useless bits of plastic off your hands :pac:

    I'd be interested in the SNES games if you do decide to sell though seriously, depending on what you have.

    I was advised to search for a game I wanted to sell on ebay (and refine search to completed listings), gave me a good broad idea of price range.

    Another suggestion I got was this site, which is particularly useful for NTSC games:

    http://videogames.pricecharting.com/

    I'm sure there would be a lot of prospective buyers here too:

    Thanks lads, I'll have to make a list of what I have over the weekend and see if anything is worth selling.

    If you have any Wii games in there, I hear that Xenoblade Chronicles can burst into flames and burn down your house while you sleep, but I can dispose of it in a safe and economically sound manner if needed.

    For selling, you can't do that here, but if you pop over to the Arcade & Retro Marketplace there's a good bunch over there that'll be interested in some of them at least!

    Check the Arcade/Retro forum here on boards. They should have a good idea of the prices you'd be looking at.
