Huge Console Auction Debuts 393
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. :)"

shipping! (Score:5, Funny)
that's gonna be one hell of a shipping cost. it may be cheaper to rent a ship and go to hong kong to pick it up yourself
i guess if you are willing to pay 100k it may not be a big deal.

I wish my bank offered Bonking services - maybe I wouldn't moan about their monthly fees if they did.

I'm sure we have a few of those somewhere around here.
There's no group of people (no matter how small) that isn't represented somehow on Slashdot.

If I had that kind of money, I'd surely pay it - right around the time I begin putting the finishing touches on that full-scale trebuchet I've always wanted.

the best mary-kate & ashley game ever! (Score:1, Funny)
1) Fash is a really fun store. You dress Mary-Kate & Ashley with lots of hairstyles, clothes, and shoes. Then, you go to the fashion show and take pictures of every outfit. If you got good pictures of each outfit, you win a gem!
2) Lizzie's Lunch is really easy. You serve people what they want on skates, but you have to do it quick before the customers get all mad and leave. If you get the right amount of money, you win a gem!
3) Just Say Snow is fun, but kind of hard. First you choose a board, then you choose an opponent. I would say you choose Bridget Winters, Jeff Rockett, and I think this girl named Cadjet Summers. They are really easy to beat. If you win 2 heats in each slope, you win a gem!
4) Music Nation was hard but I beat it anyway. You pick dance moves for your video. You can also choose the music, too. Then you record your video along with effects. You also have to submit your recording to the producer to win a gem.
5) Catch A Wave is fun! You have to get pictures of the two new lifeguards with you in it. Also,if you get a shot of the DJ, you get bonus points! There is a bonus boutique to unlock stuff or give you bonus stuff.
I like this game because of all the cool things you can do.

Maybe the guy just got married and his wife told him to get rid of all that electronics shit. So he comes up with a plan: auction it all off on ebay in one lump but with a huge starting bid. If no one buys it then he can go back to his wife and say no one would buy it. But if someone does bid on it, hey, $100000 is a pretty nice chunk of change.

How appropriate, a Slashdotter not knowing what a "bonk" is. Last time I checked, bonking wasn't confined to Japan either, people do it all over the world

However, my bank account ($10,000,000,000,000+) is frozen and I need the arm of an American in order to make the magic potion that will get me back my money. I promise I will send you the the $100.000 as soon as I get your arm. I am a very honest Nigerian.

My name is Wan Dev Kit, son of Wong Dev Kit, Hong Kong's foremost exporter of video game systems and utilities. Following the Chinese takeover of Hong Kong, my father disappeared and his bank account has been frozen by the state. This has caused great hardship to my family who have been unable to access his account.
However, there exists a loophole in the law which allows foreign companies to remove existing stock from Hong Kong following the takeover. To this end I am seeking a discreet, reliable foreign partner to provide the sum of $100,000 (ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS U.S.) in transfer fees which will allow my father's company to operate outside Chinese control. In return, you will be richly rewarded by the Dev Kit Electronics Company.
THank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Wan Dev Kit
