I have all the Nintendo home consoles except for the N64, a Genesis, a Dreamcast, a PS2, a Game Boy and a DS. I think my favorite to collect games for has been the NES, for a couple different reasons. The carts look really nice on a shelf even if you don't have the box (as opposed to SNES, N64, or Genesis), there is an enormous variety or games in terms of scope and gameplay styles, and the games are cheaper than other retro systems. The value of NES carts has definitely gone up in the last 5 years, but when I started collecting (about 2008/9), I got a ton of classics (Contra, Mega Man, Castlevania 2, Zelda 1 and 2, Metroid, etc..) for $15 or less. The most I've had to pay for an NES game was when I bought a complete copy of Final Fantasy.
