That shit is crazy.

But I don't see any mention of SNES? Or NES?

Edit: I laughed at this game, anyone know what the title of it is?

Famicom and Super Famicom are NES and SNES respectively.

Bingo.


Which then makes me think on how complete the NES collection is. I guess this really comes down to on your definition of complete.

Very shady, he doesn't show any pictures of the collection, that partial bookshelf picture doesn't count.

Plus he's overcharging for shipping which is illegal, it's not $1000 to ship something like this. You could hire your own driver with a truck for that.

Plus he says it comes with all 19 Virtual Boy titles. According to Wikipedia there are 21 in the North American market.

Plus he says it comes with Virtual Bowling, that's one of the releases from another market, if he's including those then there's way more games. 21 is just the north American market. And he didn't mention Jack Bros. which is one of the rarest Virtual Boy games.

No mention of any Nintendo World Championship cartridges or anything else common collectors can relate to. If you want to see a true complete collection check out www.thepunkeffect.com. That's Pat Contri's site, he does some strange videos but somewhere in there he has a video review of his complete collection including some of the original in store demo units and black box sets.

If you had scrolled down, there are many pictures of the collection. I didnt count, but I would guess more than 50.

Marth strikes again. I would estimate about 300 pics in that ad.

I spend $500 a month on Ebay purchases, it's strange to see a listing with the pictures outside the preview pane. No big deal.

Angry Video Game Nerd has a comparable, if not more complete collection.

Shipping will have to be calculated, depending where you're based, and which fullsets you'd buy.

Even if he did charge $1000 (which is believable for insurance), at a selling price that high, it seems moot.

You obviously aren't a lawyer.

This post was much funnier after I clicked the link... seems like an extraordinarily well-documented collection.

Still a lot of money for videogames, but I guess they're a good investment!
