Passion For Games - April 2007

eBayer sells video game collection because he's getting married



An eBay seller has just closed an auction that featured a massive collection of video games, systems, and accessories from over twenty years of gaming. Why? Because he's "going to marry this wonderful girl and could use the money". The auction featured hundreds of games and systems from the Atari 2600, Intellivision, and NES through the PS2 and GameCube. It even had such gaming wonders as the Virtual Boy, Atari Jaguar, and two Sega Dreamcast consoles. The auction began at a mere $100 and sold to the winning bidder for $3,600.


We can't help but wonder whose idea this was: his or hers. Giving up twenty years of nostalgia for one "wonderful girl" isn't something a guy in his right mind normally does. It could only be one thing: love. That, or a threat from the laser eyes of doom (pictured).

NO.

It's cruel.

So cruel.

Won't someone stop the cruelty?

With such a huge collection, it's obvious that these games were something that he really loved. You would think that this 'wonderful girl' would have stopped him from selling the stuff, insisting that they find another way to get the cash.
