We all know the mega fall from grace these have suffered the last decade but under the saying "everything old is new again", can these things ever become hot again?
Remember that only about 15 years ago, no one had interest in collecting any "new" card that was made of traditional dark cardboard. But for the last 8 years, new vintage styled cards and paper stock have been hot.
Now, it also appears that 8-16 bit, you know, early Nintendo graphics and gaming, is back in vogue to a point.
Eventually, the kids who grew up collecting and playing with these will like to relive their childhood and go out and try to buy them again. You know, what card and toy collectors do.
Or am I missing a point and the only thing these will be good for in the future will be as door stops?
