    I keep most games I buy, so by this thread's logic I should be rooting for the market to be flooded with affordable remakes which erode the bloated resale values of used pins.

    Sounds great to me.

    Quoted from Shapeshifter:

    But, I like to rotate games frequently. The more saturated the market, the harder it is as I can't keep taking losses on games.

    If you buy one game for each game you sell, it's only a loss psychologically. If you buy a $5k game that drops to $3k, and sell it to buy another $3k game that used to be a $5k game, what have you lost?

    The drop is is great if you're building a collection, and bad if you're downsizing, but basically neutral for someone who rotates games.
