30 Years of Video Games Up For Sale
Are you obsessed with video games? Do you cry every time you think about how your mom gave away your Atari 2600? Do you have 10 grand or so to spare?

If you answered yes to any of those (especially the last one), we've got some good news for you. For an undisclosed reason, a man is selling his collection of video games, game systems, and accessories via eBay. The lot of almost 1,800 items, estimated to be worth about $15,000 and weighing in at half a ton, took the seller known as "sengoku" 30 years to amass.

We couldn't possibly list every item in the auction, but here is a list of the systems (there are multiples of some):

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.

With a collection of this size you could open a museum.
