I've felt similarly about the vintage game collecting market. I had started collecting old Sega stuff a few years ago, but that's gotten progressively more expensive to the point of not making sense. Learning to use emulators has been a game changer; every Dreamcast game on a mini-pc hooked up to a TV is pure bliss.
