This might be best for the General Games Forum, but since these are GC and Wii games I'm mentioning, it goes here. :P

So about a few months ago, I bought a slew of GameCube games and purchased a Wii and several games in the past month... the majority being VC games.  To make a long story short, I've only beaten a few of the VC games and one GameCube game... Metroid Prime, but I have a long list of games I either forgot about or just never really got into.  I've got some great games to finish like Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, Eternal Darkness, Metroid Prime 2, and others... but not enough time.  Now, I'm considering buying some other games like WarioWare and Need For Speed Carbon... not to mention future Wii games like SSBB and MP3.

The funny thing is... Wii Sports is taking up much of the time wasted.  I could be playing Rayman or Paper Mario right now, but Wii Sports is that addictive.  Not that the games I've put on hold are bad... in fact they're all pretty amazing... but I just have too much on my plate.  I really should take them one at a time and just beat them in some order.

I can't be alone here.  Now... back to playing tennis.

Nope, I pace myself. Comes with years of experience. Beat one game, move on to the next. Simple procedure really...

Yeah, definitely have a few to many games I haven't finished recently. I've got to finish Zelda: WW, Mario Sunshine, Metroid Prime, Killer7, then I still haven't finished Twilight Princess and add all that to the fact that I just got a 360 and it starts to get a little overwhelming.

Yes.  I still have to beat a bunch of games that I've started from when I just was playing my Gamecube.  I have game ADD or something.  I still have to finish RE4, Killer 7, MGS: Twin Snakes, MP1, and MP2.  Ugh...

I've beaten Twilight Princess, Rayman, Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam, Red Steel, Wario Ware, and Sonic and the Secret Rings.  All I have left, for now, is two levels of Elebits, and peak 3 of SSX Blur (which is so freaking intense its not even funny)

I still have lots of Gamecube games I haven't finished but I'm putting them off because one more play through Killer7 is worth it. I also have tons of PC games I haven't even started but that's what summer is for (damn game and water droughts).

I have Legend of Zelda, Wind Waker , SSX and Sonic

I have some other VC games but I have removed the saved files and put them into storage to deal with the large influx with games. :P  I never not play a game though, I get around to it sooner or later.

I have like 10 games to beat, I've just got a wii and getting a 360 in 3 months so I'll have stacks. I mainly want to beat Zelda TP and WW. Also MOH EA, Sonic heroes, God of War 1 & 2, Sonic and secret rings, and I'll be getting SSBB at release too, so I should be selling em, but don't want to in my head somewhere. So they just stack up in the cabinet

I have hardly ever completed any of my games! I buy games I want as soon as they come out, so older games get left behind. I've recently got back to paper mario 2, nearly finished it now, just gotta beat bowser and whoever comes after that then I'm done, I'm also the same on pikmin 1, can't kill the last enemy!

 I work full time and even though I can afford all three consoles and pretty much buy any game I want as I just don't have the time anymore. Being an adult sucks. As for unfinished games, they have been stacking up on me since the PS2/GC era. Obviously I make time to finish the greats but many slip through my fingers. My biggest priority old title to finish is Skies of Arcadia (GC).

At the moment I'm playing

Twilight Princess

Sword of Vermillion

Animal Crossing WW

Castlevania PoR

But I have so many other games that I want to complete,the trouble is I keep buying more.

Some of them are because I can't beat the end boss,Pious Augustus in Eternal Darkness is really bugging me.

also the last boss on Beyond Good & Evil.

But a lot of games have just been put aside cos of new games.:oops::lol:

I've been stuck with too many games to complete ever since World or Warcraft came out and has sucked up 90% of my gaming time for the last 2+ years.

Hasn't stopped me from buying all the great games that are released, but my back log just keeps getting bigger. Heck, I've got some SNES games I've had for 15+ years I still want to play.

I just recently did this with the DS.  Bought like 6 games over 2 weeks.  Played them all, and now I'm playing Pokemon Green.

Now in after sight, I wish I didn't do this.  It has made me lose appreciation ya know?  Where as one game at a time would be much more like it.

People said there's not enough games when they already don't have finished all their games. These people should shut up.

As for me, I'm up to date. I finished all my games. I need my Wii soon.

Yeah, but I feel more satisfied when I do beat a game. I enjoy most of the games I play normally. I would feel better beating the 8 or so games I need to beat, though.

If I pay $50, I wanna see EVERYTHING.

On a side note, I have Sonic and the Secrets Rings and a couple GC and Ps2 games to beat.

I have this problem with PC games.  I'm trying to play Brothers in Arms, Star Wars Republic Commando,Knights of the Old Republic, Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, Empire at War, Tian Quest, Psychonauts, and Doom 3, all at once.  :-S
Not a single one of them sucks either so that makes things pretty hard.

sometimes it happens to me, mostly because when i play an rpg i forget about other games
