DCharlie laughs at that pathetic assemblage.
Scroll to the end of the auction.
By all means extremely impressive, but doesn't hold much personal interest to me since they're from a different region. Let's see a North America collection of that caliber please.

Yup, that's Adol. I sold him that Cyberbots.
This is a brag auction, but at the same time, its not. This auction doesn't have his Neo Geo collection, his Euro Neo Geo Pocket, his US SNES collection, his japanese PSX collection, etc.
In other words, he gave a price that he wouldn't mind letting these go for, and he'd still have games that he'd be able to look at on his shelf after pocketing a stupid amount of money.
This wouldn't be a good way to become a collector imo... isn't the thrill finding things for yourself? I always thought so.
Still, holy crap at this guy's stuff!
All those unplayed games and not a GAF member? Shocking.

CollectorGaf lOTl It belongs in a Museum!
It is. I guess if you wanted to open your own store, it could be a significant investment if you could see double or triple how much you put in?
So many crappy games!
who does he expect to sell this to?
I mean everyone that's INTO crazy huge game collections already HAS a lot of those games so there's no way he's gonna get it sold for that price

But you're not. Out of all of those hundreds of games, less than half of them are worth anything.
Give you an example: On the Japanese Sega Saturn, you'll be able to sell most if not all of the shooters, and fighters. Games like Soukyugurentai, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, and Metal Slug will all sell, because they're very import friendly, and in high demand. Games like Psychic Assasisin Taromaru command a LOT of money.
However, after those have been sold off, you now have games like Can Can Bunny and Idol Maajan Final Romance 2. They MIGHT sell eventually, but you'll be sitting on expensive inventory for a long time.

The Dreamcast had 550 while the N64 has only 200?
No wonder I only had like 5 games throughout the lifetime of the N64.
Highly doubt it will sell at that price. Unless someone with a ton of money just wants to spend a lot on a ton of random games they don't care about.
If I've learned anything from Pawn Stars, it's that the market for a massive collection is very limited. Someone who wants all of the Sega games might not give a fuck about PC Engine titles. Someone who wants every NES game might only collect NES games and say "Why the fuck would I want 550 Dreamcast games?"
Better to split them all up by console only or category or something.
I think if it does sell, it will be to someone who buys it just because they can, not because they really want anything out of it.

This guy is the owner of a game shop in Paris.
Prolly planing to buy some Greek islands now they're cheap.Aww, that's so sad. A person who obviously have a passion for games is selling his entire collection. Why? Did he loose his passion or does he need the money for something important? By the looks of it he's selling a big part of his memory.
