eBay listing includes 721 SNES titles released in US, Mexico, and Canada; seller willing to take best offer, but has declined all thus far.
Auction site eBay is home to numerous SNES collections, but one is more comprehensive than the rest. eBay user "kaisetsuna" is unloading a collection that includes all 721 SNES titles released in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The asking price is $24,999 or best offer.
Forty-nine offers have been made thus far, including 13 today alone. All have been rejected.
The collection--which weighs in at 400 pounds--includes boxes for each game, as well as 85 percent of all manuals. Conditions range from near mint to fair, with each game having been "professionally" cleaned and tested.
Writing on Reddit, the seller said it would be preferable to complete a potential sale outside of eBay so as to avoid the auction site's fees.
Now if only I had $25,000 laying around...

If you break it down you are looking at $34 per game.

Exactly. For a mint SNES game that's a steal! There are certain games on EBay (if mint) that go for well over $100 alone.

I think he will get what he is seeking. I am sure there are not many FULL SNES collections floating around, and at $34 a game this is a great deal.

Lol yeah but he probably has the collection 2 fold. Love his series though, something about sitting in a basement with every game around you makes me warm inside lol!

Now it's a lie, it's not every game. Only the ones in the Western world
Not one for Japan or Europe or am I missing anything
Nice deal though
Thanks to Spyrde/Sylar

It never claims for JPN and EUR. It specifically says the countries in the NA region. Originally Posted by claud3

Earthbound and the Donkey Kong Country Trilogy are my top SNES games, sadly my entire pre-PS1 catalogue of games got ruined due to water damage. :/ Originally Posted by Blacksite

Wow so many classics....
Super Mario World
Super Mario RPG legend of the 7 stars (on of my all time favs)
Legend of Zelda A Link to the past
SMW 2 yoshi Island
Donkey Kong Country
Super Metroid
BattleToad/double dragon
Street fighter 2
Mario Kart
Kirby Golf (forgot the name of the game)
Star Fox
FF3
NBA jam
That's all I can remember at the moment but imo the SNES is the greatest console of all time also the most important! And has the best library even better than PS2

Honestly, I'd have to go with Super Mario World. It was so easy to pick up and play.
