We're talking about "collecting spread" as Johnny says, or how many different things you collect. It's only possible to play so many games, and even only possible to know about a fraction of all the games ever made. We're discussing the benefits of specializing vs. collecting everything.

We're talking about franchises and genres that fell off, or whether they fell off. Contra is a classic that really isn't in the public consciousness anymore. Baldur's Gate was 90s nostalgia until it came back in a big way. 2D shooters used to be one of the most collectible video game genres until... they weren't.

We're talking everything we regret from starting this insane rabbit hole of a hobby instead of doing something productive with our lives to collecting Xbox. Because you know, I should've collected PS2 instead of Xbox.

We're talking what the 10 most expensive games will be two decades from now. 20 years ago people threw out games like Air Raid and Elemental Gearbolt Assassin's Case, which ended up being very wrong. So we're responding to Cheat Code Weekly and making our own predictions.

We're talking about video games... with lenticular covers and inserts. Johnny likes this stuff. Maybe you'll learn about an affordable N64 variant though!

So you want to collect PC? Well, not really. We're giving our thoughts and overview of different eras of PC collecting from 1970s Japanese computers to the underrated early 2000s small box era.

Talking about some random cheap tat that comes with games. Mostly pre-order bonuses, but also some Atari stuff to maintain Tyler's interest in cheap tat.

We're talking about Nintendo's console launches and the collectible future of different types of Switch 2 games.

We play devil's advocate and make the bear case for physical video games as a collectible category. Also a lot of discussion about whether Spider-man will be relevant in 500 years.

So you want to collect iam8bit. Wait, what? Yes.
