You used be able to get 200 unique games for 75 dollars/euros no one wanted them. When all the video rental stores shut down boxes of shelves were sold by weight, I'd say the majority of games on my shelves were about 20 cents. Same with the big box stuff no one wanted it, it was sitting mixed in with board games in charity shops for years and years. I've had literal crates full of consoles, controllers and handhelds given to me for nothing by charity stores just to get rid of it because they don't even want to get into selling electronics. Shit like PS1, PS2s, Xboxes, 360s, DSs, PSPs, N64s, gameboys old PCs. I've no interest in Nintendo though so I gave that to one of my kids who has a collection of it, my fault for getting them a 3DS for Christmas. O well. Even more interesting stuff like 2600s with big libraries or 8 bit and 16 bit machines with piles of peripherals and libraries was being sold off at estate/house clearance auctions for 50 and the auctioneers would be glad just to get a bid. All that has changed in the last 6 years or so. Even bullshit like a wii with a few games missing a controller or a fucked up old gameboy gets multiple bidders. I have hundreds and hundreds of titles to play from bulk buying as well as arcades cabs in emulation and 8 bit physical emulators loaded with thousands more on top of the real deal like the retrogames machines. I must have something like 20,000 games on tape about 5000 physical and all the consoles and accesories. I'm gud don't really need anymore

>No, you don't NEED a copy of some shitty meme survival horror game for it all to be worth it.
Most of that stuff I got when it was sold used ex rental or got a few on release (all works fine). I'd have this stuff even it was worth zero though because I just like playing games. Have a movie room too which is a 5000 box set and DVD/Bluray library. We use that a lot too but again, I have basically everything I want at this point for that too.
