No. I just collect (and play) old game carts. Many of my games have the original boxes, manuals, etc. It's a hobby.
Ah. Makes sense... they're certainly cheaper and you can pick em up anywhere. I just find that the consoles themselves aren't reliable enough for me to commit to that... both my N64 and Mega Drive don't work properly any more...they work sporadically. I don't know what happened to my SNES so every now and then I look on ebay for one and consider getting it, but I have to weigh that against the possibility of it being likewise unreliable. If it weren't for that though, I'd love to get one.. play Mario Kart, Mario All Stars, and Striker again... those were my favourites I think.
