Roy Raftery, who is a trading card and video game specialist working with Currys, revealed which game he believes could be worth keeping hold of, saying: “While not cheap at £65 ($87), Super Mario 3D All-Stars for the Nintendo Switch is an interesting choice.

“It’s a game that collects three iconic Mario titles – so it’s already off to a good start - but was on a timed release by Nintendo, meaning after a certain point they stopped making or selling copies. The only way to pick this title up now is via the second-hand market, and the Switch is a system gamers love collecting for.”
