GAME HOARDER
A newsletter/blog about collecting vintage video games, selling vintage video games, and being consumed with greed for vintage video games
My name is Steve. I've been collecting retro video games for about 15 years. I'm a deal hunter, and I do a lot of reselling to bring my overall spend down. This has been a great way to build a collection at almost zero net cost. But: aggressively chasing cheap games puts me in a lot of weird situations, and fighting for deals frequently forces me to ask questions about the direction of the retro gaming market, the ethics of buying low and selling high, and my own obsessions and greed.
Do you want to spend 10 minutes, a couple times a month, reading about my finds and eavesdropping on my internal monologue as I try to figure out what compels me to keep buying all this stuff??? Then you’ve come to the right place.
