Anyone know where to find a list of games that go for good $ these days? Not the rare ones only released in Japan, but the list of HTF console games that sell well in the secondary. I'm slowly clearing out the attic of things from my kids's childhoods and keep coming across things that have nice value. Because they were kept in the attic and we are neatness freaks, everything is in excellent condition. That includes probably 500-800 video games on various consoles and handhelds. We didn't keep the packaging for the cartridges but the CDs all have original cases and boxes.

Anyway if someone can point me in a good direction it would be appreciated. Also looking for a good place to sell DVDs, comics, TPBs and toys.

Huge gamer, and I used to spend all my forum time on racketboy, before finding my way here. Racketboy is a great "retro" gaming site.

Here is what you want:

Great thanks!

Just did a quick skim. I'm pretty sure we have a few on the valuable list, although not the special editions or factory sealed. Probably best to sell as lots and toss them onto ebay in 5 or 10 to a group.

Yeah. The PC Engine GT is so chunky and retro, but you've just got to love it.

I have a soft spot for the Gizmondo as well. Have most of the release games (and the rest), but I love the design and whole sordid history behind the console

I still have the original Atari, Intellivision and Colecovision.

Nice! I never had those personally but I think the first system I ever played on was my cousins Collecovision. I can remember playing a Smurfs game they had.
