£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: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.

  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.
