£35,000 video game collection hits eBay

Do you happen to have a spare £35,000 to spend on old video games? Then you might want to take a look at this listing currently up on eBay. It might not be quite as big as the largest video game collection in the world, which was sold just a couple of months ago for $750,000, but it is still a haul worth talking about.

The job lot boasts a fair few rare titles, consoles, collector editions and even developer debug units. The full list of games was simply too big to fit on to the eBay listing so everything has been put in to a 23 page long photo bucket album. The bulk of the collection is made up of PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, N64, SNES, NES, GBA and Wii games but there are some golden oldies, going as far back as the Commodore C64.

The collection is resides in Kent, UK. However, delivery is an option- it'll cost you an extra £2000 though. There are just over five days left on the listing and around 54 watchers but there is no telling if the collection will sell- or even if its actually worth as much as it's going for.

KitGuru Says: I don't know much about the retro gaming market so I can't guess whether or not this entire collection is actually worth £35,000. I did have a laugh at the £2000 postage though. What do you guys think? Reckon it will sell? I'm not so sure myself.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.

  1. Sorry but it isn’t worth that much, if there is a Sega Saturn in a collection you better hope you have Shining Force 3 in there to go with it, or people will look the other way, even Panzer Dragoon Saga, or Shen Mue if you have a Dreamcast. The list doesn’t give you a full idea of what is there, and he has imports… so either he has modded the consoles to allow imports or he hasn’t mentioned he has also NA and Japanese consoles. Yeah definitely not worth 35k though.
