A Washington man had his NES collection stolen when someone broken into his home while he was on vacation.

He spent 40 years building the collection and had over 860+ games.

He was just three games away from completing the entire NES games library.

His mom gave him his NES and he says losing the collection is so painful, it feels like his mother died a second time.

He says even though he has three sons, his collection was like a son to him.

You can see how choked up he is while talking.

What monster could do this?

Internet sleuths need to come together and find the bastard(s) who did this.

Niggers wouldn't even know how to flip NES games. This was done by meth head white bois.

did he publicly tell everyone he won't be home or what?
>>
this like a tri-stash or something?
>>
>>541351607
Honestly it’s just nice to see a collection like that with the games out of the box ready to be played. I feel bad for him for losing a massive collection especially since he was only 100 or so away from completing the collection

most robberies only last a few seconds. robbers enter, grab whatever thing looks like it costs the most, and run away immediately.
this is different. whoever did it knew the house would be empty long term, knew what to look for, where to find it and how valuable it was. a random meth head isn't going to spend an hour carrying back and forth 800 40 year old plastic games.
a friend snitched, or he bragged on social media about his stash.
might as well hang a sign on the road saying FREE GAMES HERE, FIRST COME FIRST SERVE --->

>childish things

His collection was worth between $50,000 to $100,000 and he was planning on leaving it to his kids to pay for his grand kids college.

If you had something worth that much money and someone stole it, you would not be like "LOL! It was a childish thing. I was too old for it anyway!".

>>541352389
no its not. NES games are junk. sounds like an insurance scam.

Who the fuck leaves their property in today's day and age? Been living in the middle of shitville backwoods Appalachia for almost 20 years, started having my groceries and household goods delivered to my trailers from door back in 2018 when Walmart started offering it.

I get disability and foid stamps, state pays for my phone and internet connection cause I'm low income. I got literally no reason to ever leave my property. Hell , my 3rd cousin comes over and gets her smone on, give me pussy at least every other weekend. I even have door to door delivered pussy a couple times a month.

depends on print quantity and conservation state. shit like super mario can be found for 5 bucks, but there are super rare titles that are highly sought after, like earthbound for the snes

>>541352389
Shut up, faggot. Go play with your loli figurines. Or look at the unopened box. Whatever you stunted fags do.

if you have shit like this and don't have good ass home owners insurance to pay you out, you fucking suck as an adult

also getting attached to physical media is a goy-trap. there's a new term for you guys, goytrap.

I put my nintendo shit in storage like a hand built storage shed that was outside
water leaked inside because my dad built it like shit and mice got in chewed the wires, shit and psised on it all i threw it all in the trash instead of checking if anything worked

shit sucked but life goes on, all this shit is emulated now so idgaf you have no time as an adult with kids to play this shit and 90% of the games weren't worth playing anyway
>>
>>541352566
snes is also trash. NES is trash, there arent even emulators for NES games.

this is an insurance scam

Good.

Niggers sold it for like $400 I bet

Mesen emulator plays both nes and snes roms, bud. Been using it for years. Use project64 for n64 roms, dolphin for gamecube roms. I only play Nintendo roms since that's what I grew up in, but you can pretty much find roms and emulators for every platform up through 4th Gen. I play snes and n64 games on my emulators almost every day.

This.
The games are probably in a storage unit.
Who doesn't have a camera at their front door?
Thousands of dollars in games no security?
Blow it out your ass.
I got cameras all over my property and I don't even live near niggers.

>>541351607
Let me guess? There will be a GoFundMe to replace this that will exceed the market value? This is staged. I bet the robbers yelled THIS IS MAGA COUNTRY.

>this is an insurance scam
The collection isn't actually valued and appraised retard. The $50,000-$100,000 figure is just an estimate of how much he could make selling each game individually on ebay at their market value over a course of 3 or 4 years.
>>
>>541351607

I have more than that on my NAS, and instead of collecting for 40 years, I downloaded them in about 20 minutes.

Use to have a large collection of nes games, the first nes console my family ever bought but I'm stuck with using 2nd hand solar panels and old batteries inverter that barely put out enough juice for my ac, dorm fridge and laptop so I sold my nes and games to my uncle for a $150. So I just downloaded all my favorite roms for nes thru gamecube and have backups for em on a couple external hdds in case my laptop dies.

I can play each and every classic game on a raspberry pi. All that collection does is take up space and gather dust.

100% considering it’s washington. definitely some of his meth head friends since they knew about the collection and when they’d be out of town.

The first thing I thought was that whoever stole his collection is someone he knows or is at least acquainted with.

I was a spoiled brat when I was a kid. Completely addicted to SNES games. At one point I think I had 35 games or so. Each one of them costed at least 65 dollars. Disgusting.

(continued) is the equivalent of an art theft. vidya is modern day art. it has inherent collectors value but only if it's physical media (which is why the jews are trying to phase out physical media for the goys and keep it to themselves).

How much is gaymer's insurance?
>>
>>541359139
Well this would fall under the home insurance burglary protection if he even had it. You can also insure collections like this and assets, like a singers voice or a surgeons hands.
His collection was worth 30-40k since it was incomplete and not on boxes
>>
someone who knew him, most likely
>>
>>541351607
Shit man, I've had the entire library in a folder for about 25 years now, and I actually played them as a child on the original hardware.
