Do you only buy official products?

I got a whole lot of 3rd party shit but I didn't collect that...
It looks much more better if all item boxes show the same colors and signs
like this:

 

Thats a beautiful sight, I also have the PS1+its box and the official memory cards boxed with manual

 

All of my controllers are 1st party. except in the case of the original xbox where a lot of the 3rd party controllers worked better than the 1st party ones...

p.s. what happened to the 2nd party?

 

For the most part I'll buy 1st/3rd party stuff and avoid all boots unless they're rather funny looking.

 

I bought a carrying case for my 3DS and it came with bunch of extras, styluses, case to hold loose games and SD cards, case for the 3DS and a screen protector.

What I am getting from you is your not a fan of screen protectors, I'm kinda hesitate to put it on. Does it really protect the screen? I would think that it will trap dirt under there.

I've used screen protectors with my DS's for the longest time, I do believe that it has protected my touch screens from scratches better than the screen itself would, getting dust and dirt near the edges is an unfortunate side effect, so to avoid mine looking dirty, I replace them every so often. just make sure you follow instructions for putting it on so you don't get any air bubbles

 

I stick with official controller's for my ps-2's and xbox's. I tried some knock off brand's but they never lasted.

 

Hmm, this seems to be gaming related, so perhaps shouldn't be off topic?

It really depends on what you're talking about. I'd take it on a case-by-case basis. Official controllers are almost always better, unless it's a custom arcade stick perhaps. Cables, it really doesn't matter and, in fact, you can get high quality cable manufacturers that make decent, if not better, products. Parts, sometimes you have to go unofficial - like lasers or screens. If you're always losing your DS stylus, would you keep forking out on an official Nintendo replacement? It's a piece of plastic! And, of course, there are accessories that just aren't made by the console manufacturer - carry cases, rechargeable Wiimote batteries, musical instrument controllers etc.

I certainly believe that original controllers are generally better, but other items can be made just as well by third parties. Just like anything, really.

 

Yeah that's what I figured. The bubbles and the dirt on the corners is something that I keep thinking will happen. The said part is that I don't use the stylus often, only when really needed, so I'm not worried by scratches.
