As an adolescent in the late 90’s, my friend group played the Star Wars version of this, Star Wars CCG. At the time I had cards worth $40-50 and thought if I held onto them for decades they’d be worth thousands. Looked them up recently and they’re going for... $20-30. Oh well.
Interestingly, unopened packs seem to fetch a fair amount, certainly more than their “expected value”, which aligns with my experience trading loot boxes on Steam.
