In order for it to be like Pokemon it has to be something that everyone thinks is stupid and just throws it in the trash and lets their kids drag it across concrete on the playgroundI think maybe we jumped the shark there's nothing left like that. Everything is speculated on now. The internet and social media has clued everyone in to the investment potential of "literally fucking everything"it's over
>>62816674>>62816686These things are being destroyed as we speak. There will be a time where they will become scarce and worth tens of thousands.
>>62816789They still make CD players and MP3 playersBy this logic, 8 track players should be worth millions. And actually functioning 8 track players are worth a few hundred dollars because they're tough to come by, and "enthusiasts" still desire them, but I don't anticipate they will be worth $10000 some day. And even if they did, you'd have to store a hoard of 8 track players somewhere in your house for 50 years in order to invest in them. No thanks

>>62816914>"LOW POP!!! LOW POP? i HEARD IT'S LOW POP. IT. HAS. LOW. POP. LOW POP. POP, AND IT'S LOW. LOW POPULATION"The "low pop" bull run already happened
fast-food promotional toys, minecraft merchandise, special edition soda cans, stuff like that. also original physical packaging and game manuals for older games like WoW that may already be rare but not really sought after yet.

Pokemon was supposed to be a fad but it never left and everything after has been mostly digital. Idk how you monetize skibidi nostalgia.There's money in the obscure Japanese merch for stuff like pkmn and dbz. Lotte holo wafer stickers, Coris metallic sheet gum. Plus you get a snack with the collectable.

Hopefully everything will cease to exist less than 20 years.

As ai content crowds out content in every way, the easiest filter humans will have to find non-ai content will be a date filter.The 2020's will be forever associated with the pandemic and ai, so a lot of people will be nostalgic for the 2010s, as terrible as it was in most facets. I guess it was a golden age for a lot of TV series, but good luck monetizing that since it's all digital.But think about the 90s, we didn't think it was special at the time (although I did recognize how quickly videogames were advancing, it was absolutely nuts to live through), but then 9/11 happened, everyone got online, and it was amazing how many aspects of life got objectively worse in the 00'sSo to answer the question, find something from the 2010s that went away before the 2020s
>>62816761>In order for it to be like Pokemon it has to be something that everyone thinks is stupid and just throws it in the trash and lets their kids drag it across concrete on the playgroundWasn't even like that though. at least in my experience. kids still had binders and sometimes hard cases, and cared about their cards. No one was dragging a holo on any concrete lolOther kids would try to steal your cards too, if you weren't careful. that's how in demand they were even back then
>>62816606Game cases, not even with the CDs inside
>>62818082In my experience we put Pokemon cards in binders with no sleeves and even double stacked cards in the same sleeve pocket in the binder while also playing Yugioh outside on the concrete in front of the garage. Obviously there’s exceptions but most people raw dogged their shit, also that’s not saying people didn’t care about their cards it just didn’t seem like something that was important at the time.

>>62817582Lol
>>62816606Harry Potter, I'm not even joking. Harry Potter TCG, illustration art, first editions, rare pieces from the original movies etc.... They're all CRIMINALLY undervalued against the popularity of the franchise, which the HBO show will boost. I'm not even joking. https://www.instagram.com/vault713archive my boys page, a HP TCG collectors guide is popping off, not even trying to shill at all, by all means don't follow it, but the Harry Potter TCG is going crazy and it's still early days. Pokemon and HP are similarly popular, but the Pokemon mcap is like 1000x bigger than HP for no good reason.
>>62818731inb4 'buy an ad' or 'fuck off shill'. OP asked a question, i'm just trying to answer. Go away.
>>62816761>The internet and social media has clued everyone in to the investment potential of "literally fucking everything"Yea it’s all messed up man. The second hand market is full of useless shit but with a 1000% markup because everyone thinks what they have is some collectible or antique
>>62818731harry potter gonna get cucked by new show flopping
>>62819570I don't think it's going to flop. Not a fan of the hodgepodge casting (I actually dislike the Harry casting more than Snape, but that's just me...), but it's going to pop off and connect with a whole new generation. People aren't ready. The HP TCG is going to 100x, HP illustration art is going to 100x, HP 1st editions will 100x, you heard it here first
>>62816633Will age like beanie babies>>62818731>huwite hermione>in 2026The retconners won't like that one
>>62819746the should've just done an animated serious in the style of Thomas Taylor's illustrations. I think animation could've given the medium such a unique take and character that yet another live action can't. But i still look forward to the live action. Again, Nick frost as hagrid... not good. Idk who thought that would be a good idea. nick frost acts like nick frost, in everything. 1 dimensional. Black Snape is getting way too much hate. He's a fucking shakespearian classically trained actor. He's going to be thrilling to watch, if not slightly distracting.
>>62819781>race swapped character getting too much attentionI fully agree, but the decision to make a fully anglo wizard school with a token cast of non anglos was purposeful. The actor is probably going to do fine, but he was not chosen for his acting merit
>>62820031I completely disagree. I think he WAS chosen for his acting merit. Paapa is a fucking INTENSE motherfucker on stage, I saw him in hamlet years ago. Seriously, he got the job for talent.
>>62820495No man, I don't disagree he's a very strong actor; my point is still that he was NOT chosen for that ability. They've been trying to twist Rowling's works into some turbo leftist fantasy universe ever since she started saying trans people don't magically change gender because of pills and surgery, because that's insane
WotC Neopets cards
>>62822054Interesting. Hmmmmmm. So you think he was chosen JUST because he's black? I'm not so sure. I'm sure it sadly was a factor, but idk how large. People need to give him a chance. Adam driver would be shit, let's be real. Benedict cumberbatch no, who else? The boots to fill and the character of Snape is soooooooooooo complex, they require such high skill and craft to nail. Realistically who else who's a British actor do you think could pull it off? Not many choices. Paapa will be incredible to watch. Black, asian, female etc people do shakespeare all the time... that's what happens when a text becomes canon and truly timeless. I think that's the wider strategic play here for the HP franchise that's going over a lot of peoples heads. In Japan as we speak, Japanese people are acting in their version of HP and the cursed child. Race isn't central to the plot. People are being overly butthurt. And with all that said, I do also get you, and defo think the pushback against JK is a valid factor.>>62816606I'm still investing in HP tho. Art, TCG, and 1st editions. All undervalued. Zoomers who grew up with Gen 7-9 slop won't feel the same level of nostalgia and connection as the millenials who grew up with kino. I genuinely wonder of Pokemon has legs longer term outside of gens 1-5. HP will be timeless forever, just like LOTR, Star Wars etc.....

>>62822975>So you think he was chosen JUST because he's black? I'm not so sure. I'm sure it sadly was a factor, but idk how large.No anon, they didn't pick a random black person out of the street and turn them in to an actor. This is what the meme means when you people pretend to not understand
Non-sports, non-tcg market has cooled off a little since last month, prices currently consolidating at the new highs, but it is still very early. Look at what 2002 live-action spiderman and 1976 marvel sticker rookies sold for earlier this year vs now. Foreign-language 1977 star wars, basically any batman set, and on and on. The fact that this board is still clueless is an extreme bullish indicator.

>>62816606God I spent soooo much money on this game. What a fucking idiot I was. I could easily make my own pokemon game with a notebook, pen and paper. Make my own stupid rules and cards. But no, I just had to fucking pester my dad to get me there.Every Saturday he would take me to the shopping mall and buy a pack. Only 20/30 of this shits. I would then bother him for another one. And another. He realized I was a greedy little parasite and lost all love for me. Damn. Japanese are evil.
>>62816606books probably
>>62816606There is nothing. Zoomers literally have nothing physical to be nostalgic for. And millennials are getting too old to keep cashing in on.

>>62823798analog electronics.VCRs are going to be gold (if not already in your area)CRT tvs are already going up, it will only increaseanything produced with processes no longer viable or existing will increase in value. don't look for the objects, look for manufacturing processes that have ceased. Vacuum tubes prices have skyrocketed since russia invaded Ukraine because there is only 2 factories left. 1 was russia the other is in Croatia i think. The process to make vacuum tubes is not that complicated however, and people are setting up boutique tube factories in their basement. The inventer of the vacuum tube created the process and equipment to manufacturer them. He wrote a book on it and its all in there.Sometimes due to popular demand the manufacturing process comes back. for example Turntable styluses and audio tape heads. This cannot happen with CRT TVs or VCRs.
