50 sec read

Need a bigger backlog of games to work through? Michael Thommason is selling his 11,000-plus game collection, a treasure hoard officially recorded as the largest in the world by Guinness Records. So 11,000 is a big number and all, but what do you get with that many zeroes? For starters, you get every game released in the US for the: 3DO, Action Max, AGP X-System, Atari 5200, Atari 7800, Atari Jaguar, Atari Jaguar CD, Atari Lynx, Buzztime, Captain Power, Game Boy Advance e-Reader, Neo-Geo Pocket Color, Nintendo Virtual Boy, NUON, Sega CD, Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast, Tapwave Zodiac, Tiger Game.Com, Turbo-Grafx-16 CD and Turbo-Grafx-16 Super CD.

A collection of games that has been officially sanctioned by The Guinness Book of World Records to be the “World’s Largest Video Game Collection'” is up for sale. Owner Michael Thommason’s 11,000+ game collection includes complete software catalogues for a range of platforms including Dreamcast, Saturn, Virtual Boy, Lynx, Jaguar, Turbo-Grafx-16 Super CD and Sega CD. It also offers a near complete collection for Sega 32-X, Magnavox Odyssey 2, SuperVision, Vectrex… and even the Gizmodo. There are also titles for just about every game system ever made including Game Boy, SNES, Commodore 64, NES, Wonderswan, Mega Drive, PSP, Vita, Xbox 360, CD-I and many, many, many more. A quarter of the collection is brand new and never opened. The collection currently has a maximum bid of only $5,678, although that  bid is nowhere near the reserve bid.
