30 years of video gaming

A guy was collecting this for 30 years

Heres a message from him

After decades of painstakingly collecting video games and consoles, I’ve finally decided to part with my entire collection. From Atari to PlayStation 2, there’s something for everybody in this collection. Even the unbelievably rare games are included. You may have played NiGHTS on the Sega Saturn, but did you know that they made an extremely rare Christmas version? You’ll find that in this collection, along with a rare NiGHTS analog controller. Many people are familiar with the Nintendo DS, but did you know that the Neo Geo Pocket was a handheld game system that was released half a decade earlier? You’ll find the Neo Geo Pocket Color in this collection too. Sure, you’ve probably played DVD-based games such as Scene-It, but the Nuon system preceded it by over 7 years and only released 8 games. This collection has 7 of the 8, including Iron Soldier 3, a game which was later recalled. Place your bid now to own your share of video game history.

The following systems are represented in this auction: Atari 2600, Atari 7800, Atari Jaguar, Atari Lynx, Coleco ColecoVision, Coleco Gemini, Coleco Telstar, Commodore 64/128, GCE Vectrex, Mattel Aquarius, Mattel Intellivision, Mattel Odyssey 2, Microsoft Xbox, Microsoft Xbox 360, APF TV Fun, Miscellaneous Handheld Games, Miscellaneous PC Games, SC Eight Thousand, Sega Pods, Miscellaneous TV Games, NEC Turbo Duo, Nintendo DS, Nintendo Game Boy Advance, Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo NES, Nintendo Nintendo 64, Nintendo Super NES, Nintendo Virtual Boy, Nintendo Wii, Sega Dreamcast, Sega Game Gear, Sega Genesis, Sega Master System, Sega Saturn, SNK Neo Geo, SNK Neo Geo Pocket, Sony Playstation, Sony Playstation 2, Texas Instruments TI 99/4A, VM Labs Nuon.

There are 1,768 items with an estimated value of $14,639.00. Rarity has been checked based on online rarity guides, including the DigitPress rarity guides. Rare (R), Extremely Rare (ER), and Unbelievably Rare (UR) display as colored rows in the table below. The estimated values are based on the rarity guides as well as recent eBay Completed Listings. The Reserve and Buy It Now are set well below the estimated value. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to build your video game collection… or maybe it’s time to rebuild your collection… either way, there are some great items in this collection. Store purchasers are also welcome.

Shipping will be done through UPS Ground to the continental United States ONLY and will include insurance on the entire amount. I’ve entered a maximum amount for the shipping based on a NY-CA shipment. If you are bidding we will figure out the cost based on your zip code (since there are 40+ boxes and eBay doesn’t really support this size lot) and you will ONLY PAY THE SHIPPING THAT UPS SAYS YOU SHOULD by entering a shipping discount during checkout. Some sample shipment rates: California $1533, Kansas $1273, Florida $992, New York $789. Local pickup can also be arranged if you are nearby (New York tri-state area) but please be aware that you will need a truck – there are 40+ boxes that weigh around 1000 pounds together and take up about a pallet and a half. BUY IT NOW for FREE SHIPPING! If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me!

There are so many items here that, even though they have been cleaned and tested, I am still selling this lot AS-IS.
