In the late 90's I had a 3DO. I thought it was the bees knees.
I traded it for a 1/4 oz. of the bathtubs finest.

You had a fucking 3DO?!

Shit library, but that was the most powerful system of its time. Crazy expensive. $700 at launch.

Several years ago I bought a sega on ebay with 38 game included. Never really tried ones I hadn't played. Got to cleaning last week and decided I might as well sell the ones I don't play. Once I started looking up values online, I discovered one game I have, ThunderFox, is valued at $70! How in the world? Anyone else have any similar stories?

I've almost pulled the trigger a few times on a Raspberry Pi 3 specifically for that purpose. You can have every game from every system up to the N64 on a little memory card.

I agree. You can get some killer cases for them off esty for between 10 - 40 bucks.

And if you don't like those here are some awesome cases for under 15 bucks.

That sweet wood one is $8.75.

Yeah I convinced a buddy to get the hardware for that, which he did. Then I gave him the entire NES, SNES, N64, Gameboy (color, advanced, etc) Commodor, Sega, Neo Geo ROM collection. He really enjoys it.
