The Largest Collection of SEALED Retro Games in the World

Sword of Convallaria is available for FREE to download from July 31st! Use my link to download the game! tap.io/QxJod6A SkyGuy had so much fun trialling this game and the authentic battle tactics, enhanced 3D-like pixel art and profound story truly make it a modern classic.

I was about to make roughly the same comment. I was going to ask, "How do you insure something of this nature?" I can almost guarantee you that the warehouse is several feet thick of solid brick and concrete, the lighting fixtures are encased to prevent anything from happening if a light bulb were to accidentally explode and probably has a security system that can give the one for Fort Knox a run for its money.

[@akia4528]

Not sure I'd call that a "Collection" - it's more of an Inventory for an investor/speculator. A collection is for personal use, This is industrial stocking for future profit.

[@guitarlearningtoplay]

His collection end is awesome too

[@enthused7591]

I don't know about you but I collect and have a constant revolving stock of stuff for when I need to make room when my interests change. I'd much rather be this guy who constantly buys and sells, there's no fixed definition of a game collection and not a single collector stays stagnant and never buys or sells games as time goes on. He gets to peruse his collection any time he wants just like any other collector - he just happens to have $50 million worth of games in a warehouse.

[@smokymountainpioneer]

I found out that that is a company he works for. The company started in 1992. He joined in 2001. So, he is an employee but probably now a manager and not the owner. Nothing there is his own collection, not even in the basement. I just think he is the spokesperson for the company.

This is just a reseller that has a lot of product. It isn't as if he treasures any of these games, or has game rooms dedicated to the consoles he loves. He is just in it for the money and watches the industry to see what games are advantageous to sell at any given time during the month.

[@Sirnayooo]

Im sure this is where mom and pop stores get their inventory.

[@Dislob]

Why cant it be both? He created a business out of his passion. I dream of doing that. He made it work and he is still collecting if you watched until the end.

[@marklang6648]

That guy definitely should create a museum. Has some super rare stuff, possibly one of a kind. The prototype, testing equipment and manuals. Yes it just looks like inventory, but you can tell he's obsessed. Many of those sealed titles people get graded for premium. He could corner the market.

[@KevinWolfay]

That’d be a genius idea, he’d bring in constant revenue

[@susanna8612]

I would be obsessed as well for the crazy amount of money he makes with these games. He is selling them all the time for price tag 400$ each. Some old crappy games which in real are not even that good. Nostalgia is the only reason some people buy them. And I understand nostalgia I have some rare ps1 games which are now costly but Im gonna keep them because they were my childhood games.

[@shadik09]

Man that is an amazing collection. But as a repair technician, i am mostly interested in all those repair manuals and testing carts. I know there are many Rom dumps of some of them. But this man Bobby has more, and different ones. Maybe one day. Great Vid, amazing collection, beautiful and rare pieces at the end.

[@lookitskazzy]

Are you certain the service manuals haven't been scanned? There are so many of them floating around that I'd be really surprised if they aren't already on archive.

[@LiveTUNA]

I know a guy who worked for Redbox and he has severalv tens of thousand video games that he's been able to collect over the years. I guess his job was to supply the kiosks with games and dvd's and corporate would just send him several boxes of 300-500 games and DVDs every week and he would fill up the kiosks when the needed to be filled. Anything that was left over after newer games and movies replaced the ones he had, many times entire pallets, he would set aside in his office until corporate requested them back. After 10 years, he says he only sent back 3 -4 boxes because they never asked for returns. You can hardly walk into his office because he has boxes stacked floor to ceiling. I don't know how much they are worth because there are all in the red box cases, but the ones he has have never been used before. I bet you a place like this could definitely be of assistance in purchasing the lot.

[@HR91360]

If he wants to get rid of them in bulk I'd be interested. I have a friend with a local game shop. He does rentals still! 😂 It's amazing! Like a mini non corporate blockbuster.

[@smokymountainpioneer]

Okay, I just watched Phoenix Resale going to this same place 2 months ago and he actually asked the questions about him. This is a company that has been around since 1992. He joined the company in 2001. So, this is not his doing. He is just an employee. He doesn't own the games in the basement. He is not a scam artist. This company buys from closeouts of came companies and stores like Toys R Us. They not only sell to people like us but they sell to game stores to help them have inventory. So, this is a business to help collectors. They are not hoarders. The guy who is an employee, probably has a collection at his home. It seems like a cool place to work for.

[@richplanetdotnet]

WOW!! I thought I was doing well with a mint, factory-sealed yellow gameboy pocket and a mint Tetris Plus factory-sealed both from ‘98. I’m never selling them but just take them out every 5 years to check and admire them. What a warehouse this guy has!

This legitimately makes me upset. It basically amounts to market manipulation and so many people who want to be playing these games could purchase them at a decent price if this guy wasn't hoarding them. I just checked his site and he's selling those Dragon Quest V DS copies for $400 each in spite of how many he has there (even having the gall to limit purchases to five copies per customer when he obviously doesn't adhere to that himself). I'm absolutely disgusted by this.

[@prosto1076]

Who want to be playing these games - they can download them, or buy a damaged licensed copy for a few $

[@shawnji6139]

@@prosto1076 Surprising as it may sound, not everyone wants to play games via emulators - especially ones that can't fully replicate the original experience as it was intended. I don't even understand what you're getting at with the second part of your comment. "Licensed" copy? If you're referring to a "used" copy, the point I'm making is that when people like this withhold copies from the market, be they new or used, it artificially pumps up the price of BOTH NEW and USED copies. If by "licensed" you're referring to the digital downloads on various marketplaces, you are aware that not every game has a modern, digital release, right? There is no legitimate argument for these business practices. It's not as bad as something like WATA or other game "pricing" services that work hand-in-hand with auction houses to sell common titles like Super Mario Bros. for millions of dollars, but it's still a detriment to the market for everyone else involved. It's like buying up all the bread at your local market and selling it to your neighbors for twice the going rate. It's the literal definition of market manipulation, which, by the way, is illegal.

[@TheFriskySquid]

I doubt there are many people that want to buy sealed vintage games to play, when you could just buy used copies for a 10th of the price or less. He buys out games that don't sell from shops - meaning games nobody wanted. Yeah now he has them and other people don't, but they would have gone to the dump if nobody bought them (or still be in the dead stock of a warehouse never to be sold). Resellers/liquidators like him are why we have retro games to buy on the secondary market to begin with.

[@robertchantry1981]

Right 👍

[@mikeg2491]

Sealed copies play absolutely no part in the value of loose games. Loose Star Wars toys from the 80s aren’t affected by the insane prices of boxed ones, nor is the scarcity. It might as well be two separate markets. If all you want to do is play them then buy a gently used copy.
