I do this too. Collect for consoles that I either don't play or rarely play. I'm trying to figure out why. What's your reason? :)
I didn't already have half of them, the price was right, and I must have some form of hoarding illness. I enjoy shopping and 'getting a good deal,' but all they're really doing is filling up space on my display shelves.

For the record I also have the sicknesses of 'buying things intending to keep them sealed,' 'buying individual games I already own in similar condition,' and 'buying games for systems I don't own.'

I have the sickness of 'buying things I'll play later on' but then I just keep on buying and rarely play.

Also, I like to buy things that are made in limited runs, like homebrews.

They're not filling up space if they're being displayed. ;)

I try to avoid buying games for systems I don't already own, because then it gives me an excuse to buy the system, LOL.

I know all about buying things to play later. I am planning on having a gaming filled retirement one day.

That's a good plan! ;)

I feel accomplished today, actually played games for about 90 minutes.
