SNES ultimate collection up for sale
“I am currently selling my US SNES collection. It comprises all 721 retail SNES games released in the US, Mexico and Canada; boxes for every single game; and 85% of all manuals.[...]It was built up from individual sales, so conditions range from near mint to fair. I took pains to spend more on better conditions for the more prized pieces of the collection.
Every single game has been professionally cleaned and tested. They all work perfectly.
I built this set to obtain scans and clean verified dumps for every game, which I have now finished.”
The asking price for this grand collection is $25,000, which nobody seems willing to pay yet, although the seller has received two offers for $20,000 but hasn't accepted them yet.
Byuu has justified the price as “The most expensive dozen games alone are worth half of the asking price”. Byuu has also said that they would be willing to sell to any technology museum interested in the collection if they were to step forward.
The reason behind collecting and then selling the collection is that Byuu is a coder creating a new SNES emulator, and wanted the raw dumps from the cartridges for coding purposes. Byuu said that 100% of the funds recovered from selling the collection would go towards creating a similar collection from Europe and Japan.
