Be The Ultimate Gamer
After an absence that I shall not explain (but don’t worry it doesn’t involve aliens and probes), let’s get back to business. Since I owe you more than one gadget, I shall in fact, bring you more than one gadget.
1,768 gadgets, to be exact.

Now what could be so special about this messy picture? Well it’s not a new all-in-one game console, if that’s what you’re thinking. This here is the 99% complete set of gaming consoles, collected by a random lamer — I mean gamer — and if you must have the list, here it is:
Atari 2600, Atari 7800, Atari Jaguar, Atari Lynx, Coleco ColecoVision, Coleco Gemini, Coleco Telstar, Commodore 64/128, GCE Vectrex, Mattel Aquarius, Mattel Intellivision, Mattel Odyssey 2, Microsoft Xbox, Microsoft Xbox 360, Miscellaneous APF TV Fun, Miscellaneous Handheld Games, Miscellaneous PC Games, Miscellaneous SC Eight Thousand, Miscellaneous Sega Pods, Miscellaneous TV Games, NEC Turbo Duo, Nintendo DS, Nintendo Game Boy Advance, Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo NES, Nintendo Nintendo 64, Nintendo Super NES, Nintendo Virtual Boy, Nintendo Wii, Sega Dreamcast, Sega Game Gear, Sega Genesis, Sega Master System, Sega Saturn, SNK Neo Geo, SNK Neo Geo Pocket, Sony Playstation, Sony Playstation 2, Texas Instruments TI 99/4A, VM Labs Nuon.
And this 30-year gaming history collection is on eBay. Yes, eBay. The estimated price for all of this is US$14,639, but as I type this, the current bid is at US$7,320. How high do you think it’ll get?
If you wanna see the details per console and stuff, click here. So basically, that’s [insert number, I’m lazy too count] consoles and tons of games, apparently including an extremely rare NiGHTS Christmas version!
Okay actually I have no idea what NiGHTS is. I think I need to brush-up on my Geek.
The pros: If you buy this, you will have the chance to be the ultimate gamer. You will have friends coming over from Hawaii. You will have people you don’t know claiming to be your friends from Hawaii. You will have mad videogame parties, and you will never have to be alone.
The cons: They’ll be taking CDs, cartridges, and controllers one by one. And you won’t even notice. 1,767… 1,766… 1,765…
…oh and no, no PS3.

Wow, someone will probably buy it just for those Neo Geo systems… those are hard-core collected! I think this person definitely deserves 20K+.

lol. so what if there’s no ps3? the ps3 can do anything but play games! there’s nothing good to play!

Actually for the record I kinda think the collection’s cool, in the sense that it’s the history of gaming right there.
But. I mean, come on. All consoles. Hehehe
Wahaha ironically typecats, he says the reason why there is no PS3 there is because he kept it for himself. Let go of the Wii too.

Wow..my friend would fly from Las Vegas to get his hands on this.
I can already imagine the long nights of gaming.

Confucius says, one who has too many video games, will never get time to play them all. *GONG*
This also reminds me, of an update on the Twilight Zone where this guy survives a nuclear blast, and has all the time in the world to read, but his glasses break. He freaks out, yelling “BUT I HAD TIMMMEEEE!!!”
They could do that with a gamer, they run out of battery power on their portable system, NOOOOO!!!! LoL
