For those of you who don't scroll all the way down to the bottom of the Penny Arcade news page, here's a sight you don't want to miss. This is apparently the prize for the winner of their upcoming "Omegathon." I would kill for this collection...

I don't know where they got it from. They had a similar prize last year, but it wasn't nearly this big. I guess people donated it to them, can't imagine that they went out and bought/found all this stuff, though I suppose it's possible.

They bought it off ebay or something.. scroll back a few weeks (months?) in the news and they mentioned it awhile ago.

A few weeks ago they bought it on eBay, someone was selling their collection. I keep going back to Penny Arcade just to look at the pictures... oh my......

Well yeah, but surely threre's a few there you can enjoy... The rest can just be used to impress people - "Oh yeah, I own like 40 million NES games. Come have a look..."

I only say that because I have a ROM collection of like 600 NES ROMS. Most of them suck horribly. I'd still love to have the collection, however. It's totally bad ass.

Wow. I have honestly never seen such a large stack of games in my life. That's even after looking at my gaming shelves. > >. Much luck to whoever wins any of those games. o.o Like, .. don't ... get buried under the pile. ._.'

Yeah, but you can throw the ones you don't like at people you hate. o_o'

And Rob. You can break him over someone's head or something. What the hell was Rob for, anyway? I mean, what did he do? I know there's like one game that ever used him, but I still don't really understand what his function was. I wonder if there's a Powerglove in all that mess. I've always wanted one, if only just for the heck of it.
