I hope a lot of them were on sale. Even still, that has to be over 10k? I used to love collecting games, but this generation ruined it for me when the boxes they come in add almost nothing but wasted plastic and no instruction manual. I especially hate the ones where there is no game just a keycode or the game doesn't come on the disc at all but it will start the download after inserting. Not sure how much those last 2 examples apply to Nintendo, but they do for PS.
Not quite. My collection file says 8675€. I buy a lot, but I actually sell a lot too, and I get most of them used when possible.
Limited Run/Super Rare games generally maintain a very high resell value so when I don’t like the game, I have absolutely no interest in not selling them, usually for around 20% more than I bought them.
Not bad considering! I know Nintendo prices don't really drop, so that's pretty impressive and helps with resale value as well. The only luck I had with getting decent discounts was through game swap threads and maybe places like ebay and garage sales.

Is that why you can’t afford a nicer rug?

That's the cat's rug it does not have to be nice.
