Reader Discussion: Is There Something Specific You Collect Related To Games?
As the number of consumer-facing trade shows has increased, so has the volume of more easily obtainable, game-related paraphernalia. Inflatable weapons, branded and oddly shaped USB drives, patches, and more are handed out to consumers as they walk the halls of PAX, ComicCon, and more.
We’ve asked you about your game-related collectibles before, but this is a more focused question. Is there a specific type of item you collect, or is there a specific game for which you’d buy any related item.
I’ve got an absurd collection of pins and patches, for instance. Andrew Reiner and I are a bit fanatical about our Lego sets (and we have the text message history to prove it). Whether it’s action figures, Magic or Pokémon cards, or even strategy guides or manuals, we want to hear about.
Let us know in the comments! And happy hunting for the next collector’s item on your list.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
