Would you consider yourself a game collector?

[TheCapsFan]

Recently, I went through and organized my physical game collection. I used to just have all my games loose, bu it was getting hard to find specific games, and I wanted to put them back into their cases to make sure all the cases, manuals, and games were in the same place. I'd never really considered myself to be a collector before, but after looking at my two full bookshelf shelves of DS, 3DS, Switch, and Wii/Wii U games...I've kind of changed my mind.

Would you consider yourself to be a collector? If so, what systems do you collect for? Any awesome deals you've gotten recently that you'd want to share?

Whilst I would very much like to be a game collector, I wouldn't say that I definitively fit that criteria as I am right now. I'm more interested in collecting the consoles themselves; as of right now, I own a Gamecube, PS2, PS4, every DS model aside from XLs, a Wii, a Switch, and I've just purchased a PSP from a friend. I also put down the deposit for a Steam Deck, though that isn't finalised and I think was more of an interest check than a reservation. Anyway...

I could maybe consider myself a collector of Pokemon games; I have at least one version in each pair of mainline games since Ruby, most of the spinoffs, and I own all of them physically. Apart from Pokemon, I'm slowly working on my Drakengard and NieR collection, of which I'm only missing Drakengard 3 and the original Replicant and Gestalt. Whilst not an 'awesome' deal exactly, I did manage to secure both Drakengard games on PS2 for under £100, which is apparently cheaper than most people are able to find them for!

Whilst I might not have a very sizeable collection (yet!), I do take pride in my displays, so I thought I'd attach some pictures.
Please ignore the dust. Very busy university student rarely has time to dust. I need to go dust immediately.
