Is this NES Collection Worth $18,000?!

[@PatTheNESpunk]

What do you think of this NES collection? Do you think it will sell for $18,000? Note that the listing has been ended by the seller since our podcast. Check out the listing @www.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-Nes-Collection-Little-Samson-and-all-/174560325513?

[@davestevens3252]

This will sell, if anything at a slight discount. I've talked to 4 retro game store owners recently, some distances apart, and they cannot keep (valuable) NES titles around even at a premium over retail price.

[@252drinker]

I've been watching it for awhile. It started at $25k. I've also noticed the location has changed 4 times. It was listed in Pennsylvania first, then Michigan, then Arizona, and now Nevada. I saw that as a red flag.

@@davestevens3252 You can't flip when you pay full price. The point of the video is the person is overpaying.

I gave up on going for a complete set years ago. However, If the values do drop off I will jump back on it as I'm sure a lot of others would too. Even just if my business grows enough that the current prices don't feel so bad I would jump back into collecting. The target group for this stuff isn't even 50 yet. I don't think prices will stay down forever even of they do drop. Nostalgia cycles around

[@muticere]

I’ve never been a collector on this scale, but for decades I held onto copies of all my favorite games: the original PS1 Final Fantasy games, the PS1 and PS2 Silent Hill games, several SEGA Genesis and SNES games including a complete in box EarthBound, among other things. Then a few years ago I finally decided that I’d rather move on from it, that I didn’t need these anymore, including my EarthBound, and I sold them off. They went for pretty good prices and still to this day I don’t regret this decision (aside from maybe I should have held out and waited for a higher offer on my EB, but oh well). I imagine selling off a complete NES collection would absolutely give you some deep feels over time, but also I do feel pretty confident that once you make the decision that you’re ready to move on, it’s easier than you think.

[@nkb3324]

It'll be interesting to see how these things pan out. This week a BUNCH of heavy hitters for the Genesis went up for sale by one seller. It'll be interesting to see if the NES and Genesis prices start sliding as collectors start stepping out.

I think this is the start of the NES _collections_ sell off. I think the market is more pivoting towards marquee titles skyrocketing and new younger collectors, and money, going more for that. The physical collection is just now too cumbersome. You can load the whole library on something the size of a quarter. The money will stay, it'll just congregate in the big titles. Like the Honus Wagner card. Also, I cant imagine a future non nostalgic non gaming douche buying an entire nes collection just to flex, but I definitely could see same said douche buying a CIB hyper rare title and displaying that. So the money's staying, its just no longer in the other 99%. Classic.

[@DuskDalmatian]

Surprisingly I came across Bases Loaded 4 at a convention and the person was selling it way under the eBay pricing. So, while I was there I picked up the other 3 bases loaded games just so I can have the completely set of them.

[@roundearthvideogamer6039]

If the Ebay seller would have had Stadium Events that collection would be worth $50,000+ because that Stadium Events cartridge would go straight to Heritage Auctions in a WATA slab where it would fetch $50,000-$100,000 easily. $18,000 seems like a fair asking price minus Stadium Events.

I'll bet if you punched every individual title into pricecharting, you'd wind up with a figure somewhere around 13-15k. My collection is 140 titles with nothing exceptionally rare, and pricecharting says it's worth about 2500. Until just a few years ago, selling games as a large lot meant you were accepting a smaller aggregate price in exchange for not having to piece out every bit of the collection--a lump sum that saves you from the labor of selling. Deep pocketed buyers could take advantage, keep what they wanted, and do the piecing out on their own. Now that games are looked at more as investment property, however, I can see the tables turning. The only people who are interested in a copy of Little Sampson at today's prices are the sort for whom the difference between 10k and 25k is piddling. A lot like this saves *the buyer* the effort of having to track down any pay for every individual game.

This person is better off selling his stuff individually. I doubt anyone is willing to buy an entire collection also how do we know some of those games are legit also you mentioned a couple of games are cracked I doubt anybody's going to purchase damage goods. when you buy something on eBay it's a gamble.

I'd guess someone like this just wants it all gone at once, rather than taking the time to package and ship every single game. Thatd be a nightmare. If I was the seller though, I'd put all the more expensive games up individually, and sell the cheaper games as a lot.

I love retro games but honestly I can't believe this is still a thing. If you really must play on original hardware just collect the few games that really mean something to you, fair enough... but for the most part just get an evrdrive.

Ubisoft Indy is the harder one to find. Please turn in your NES expert card to be inspected.

Man, Goal II is reallyyyy bad

[@Darko1226]

I disagree. It’s a pretty fun game once you give it a proper play.
