Meet Michael Thomasson. He’s a 41-year-old video game historian who holds the Guinness World Record for the largest video game archive. Now he wants someone else to have it. Thomasson admits that he’d rather not sell his 11,000+ game collection, which includes fullcatalogues for platforms including Dreamcast, Saturn, Virtual Boy and Lynx, but due to family commitments he’s decided to offer it up to the highest bidder. It went up on auction site Game Gavel a couple of days ago with a starting bid of $1, and it’s already reached $90,000 ahead of the June 15th deadline. If you’re dying to become a world record holder and have the necessary space to store it all, the collection is said to be worth somewhere between $700,000 and $800,000.
