Snes Full Set -

You are no longer buying games to play them. You are buying plastic obligations . You find yourself bidding $40 on a loose cartridge of Captain Novolin (a diabetes education game starring a super-powered diabetic). You drive 45 minutes to a pawn shop to buy Rex Ronan: Experimental Surgeon (a game about a microscopic surgeon killing cholesterol).

Spiritually? If you complete it... you get to stand in a room, look at 721 rectangles of plastic and silicon, and whisper: snes full set

You hit 500 games. Your shelf starts to groan. You have all the "Greatest Hits." You start buying the weird stuff: Bassin’s Black Bass , Super Bowling , Rocky Rodent . You are no longer buying games to play them

Logistically? No. You will run out of shelf space. You drive 45 minutes to a pawn shop

Financially? Yes. SNES cartridges have outpaced the stock market for a decade.

This is the honeymoon phase. This is where the quest gets dark.

"I finally caught them all."
