My friend sold his Video Game Collection, it just made me have a midlife crisis at 29. Is this normal? (lemmy.world)

My friend and I collect old video games. But all my physical media just sits on my shelves and collects dust. Why do I even collect them? I literally just emulate everything. Is there a purpose to what I do? People ask me why I collect and I never have a real answer because I don't even know. If I never play my stuff, is it worth just selling?

If they just sit around and you don't play them, I'd probably just sell them. Emulating is so much more convenient.

But who cares what I'd do? Your life is your own. If collecting retro games brings you joy, then go for it.
