its worth a shot pete, there are a lot of collectors here and i think it would be better to have a section dedicated to it.

I wouldnt be using it myself as im not fussed about displays and collecting really, but there really is no good argument against it really. Just makes things a little less cluttered in my opinion.

I think placing it under the "Video Games" section with Current Generation, Past Generation, etc makes the most sense. It's easy to find and it increases the likelihood that it will be used, since sub-sections usually experience less traffic. Like you said, if it doesn't take off, the posts can be dumped into the general gaming section where most merchandise/memorabilia-related posts tend to go.

I'm interested. There's been some things I've been interested in picking up but have no idea where to start. A forum section dedicated to it would make it very easy to get some opinions that people will actually view

This is a great idea, I'm sure that I am not the only person who would like to see other peoples collections or find new places to purchase video game merchandise.

There are currently 71 votes, which shows at least a strong interest among active members in the forum. Why not give it a try and see how it goes? You'll never know how successful it will be until it's implemented and people are using it.

Yeah, and I think it would be interesting to have a more convenient place to have just straight up collection lists/pics.

I'm the 75th vote for yes.

Since merch is a part of video game collecting, I think it should be a forum on here.

I am still up for adding this forum once we have enough votes. My only concern now is where to add it. Place it under the category where General Gaming, Current Generation, and Past Generation are? I would call it something like "Game Collectibles & Memorabilia". Or I could stick it somewhere else, but I think that is the most fitting section to place it under. I could make it a subforum somewhere if needed. If the forum fails to take off I will just dump all the topics into general gaming anyway.
Add it Pete!

This would be brilliant.
Knowing where to buy/find the merchandise, what sort of merchandise there is out there etc.
If it hasn't already been made (the topic) I am ALL for it :)

I think that would be a GREAT idea. Im just in the baby steps of my collection, because I'm only 15 its hard to know where to start. Ive learned a thing or two from Pete over the years though. I think this forum would really help me if it also offered advice on how to start collecting, and expanding your collection like never before.

I think this would be good for anybody who has retro merch to get info on it from actually gamers and not just random answers on google. This is a great idea Pete. Ideas like this are what will expand your forum in the future. :D

i think this is a very good idea. there are some things that i would like to have people appraised. moreover, knowing what people are collecting and going to buy in the near future will help people become aware of games they could missed other ways. good thinking on the new section idea
