I’m sorry, what?
All these retro auctions mean nothing to me. It feels like the same dozen buyers making sure their collection stays highly evaluated.
Maybe you can fix it and sell it for $200,000!
but lacks internal hardware to play games
nah
So it’s not even a prototype, if it’s legit then at best it’s a design mockup.
Nice, looks cool
Agreed. Not sure it’s quite $100k cool, but still cool.
