Huge Console Auction Debuts

Posted by michael on from the comic-book-guy dept.

neura writes "In quite possibly the largest console auction ever, someone is selling just about every development kit and production game console ever made in Japan. They also have listed tons (almost literally) of software to go along with the systems. Anybody ever seen the original Super Famicom development system? The pictures alone are worth taking a gander. :)"

    This guy wants $100,000 US for this? Ok, so it's a serious collection worth serious money. Perhaps he should've realized that 'spelling' is important on something like this. For $100k I want the seller to understand business, he's likely never to come across money like this again. So let's just get this straight - there is no such system as the "Sega Deramcast."

    Some of you might say "with that collection he can spell everything however he wants." I'm sorry, but when you ask for that much money for ANYTHING, you can not make yourself look like a first grade jackass.

    And yes, the pictures are quite 'purdy.'

      the Deramcast IS awesome. I have a beowulf cluster of six of them that can break RSA encryption, two days per key! finding a port of linux to the s78hq.f processor was a pain, but man is it sw33t!

      You misspelt "realised", in your spelling rant. Oh wait, it's a cultural difference? Who'da thunk it? And how's your nihongo?

      I can't figure for the life of me how Americans, who generally have a limp hold on a single language, can be so critical of an Asian who isn't in perfect command of English.

      That wasn't the point. When an american company does business in asia, we learn the local language, or hire someone who does. If I need to put in an order for 1000 blue widgets, and that order gets messed up because of a language problem, we're screwed.

      Do you think i'm going to write a check for $100,000 to someone who might misunderstand my instructions on how to ship it? For that kind of money, he could have hired someone to sell it for him on commission.

  2. You missed... by Cornelius+the+Great · · Score: 0, Troll

    It looks like you forgot the most obvious and important thing: Ebay got slashdotted!!!

    I'm serious though, the page has been taking nearly five minutes, and only three pictures have loaded up. Damn, what next? Google?

      Nevermind, ebay's fine... it seems the pics were from sdk-team.com, so I'm not surprised.

      Carry on.

    The Hondorans killed by death squads and the Nicarguans killed by the contras will never forget Reagan, either.

    Ah, the beauty of anonymity. Enjoy it while it lasts, young fellow, for the days of non-accountability are numbered here on this Internet of ours. Soon your kind will fade into obscurity... or end up in prison.
