That's actually kind of sad. Why won't his wife just let him keep it, marriage is supposed to be about sacrifice!

If she was cool then yes. Who really wants to be stuck with their mom and their pointless videogame collection forever ?

Either he can sell it now and get some money, or have half of it taken away in the divorce.

You forget there may also be a kid involved. Married + kids = wonderful life. More wonderful a life than a collection of old dusty games and consoles can give to you. Plus, its not like hes selling the new consoles....if he owns one.

But if she also loves you she'll be thinking the same thing and obviously, this guy loves video games, so why not let him keep them?

She had better be amazing in bed to get the guy to do that. I don't know man. Having seen his collection, the guy is obviously a gamer.

Wow, setting himself up already to get "pwned" the rest of his life.

Glad my wife fully understands and even has broken down over time and enjoyed my hobby with me. :)

One of these days. Women are going to learn something...Instead of learning how to put on make up and getting dressed for hours to make themselves look hot. Taking that time to learn to play videogames, skateboard, a sport, or something else...Will make them 5x hawter than anything make up can do

Well , we don't really know if she is making him but if this is a way for him to make some money to pay for the wedding or something else then I don't see why it wouldn't be a good idea. People sell off collections all the time.

It's alright man, not the first time my tag/avatar/sig don't really lean one way or the other. Actually my avatar is more feminine but that's not why i picked it, I'm a sucker for Disgaea.

any woman who would make you give up one of your favorite hobbies isnt worth marrying.

No this is confusing

 

So it is like...Seriously. This girl needs to grow up!!! Its like Hello, It is okay for girls to play games now in this day and age and soo many more guys find it attractive then dressing like a "Uh oh". I mean a hawt gamer girl is one of the things men find sexy now. And in all honest...I LOVE IT!!!

Confusing enough for you^^

And maybe this pick in my Sig...Because they are Such Cute Lil Boys...OMG CUTENESS!!!

"I am selling my "classic" video game collection, because I am going to marry this wonderful girl (see image).
and we could use the money."

He isn't getting rid of his collection because his wife is making him.

Thats not the point. Marrige is about give and take and sacrifice. Unfortunately most women want every single thing their way.

I know he says he can use the money, but honestly deep down he probably doesnt want to do this,  id never do anything like this for a girl (well depends who it is and wat i get in return:P) but still, LOOK AT THAT COLLECTION!!! its ridicoulasly big and amazing.  And comon 500$ is the highest bid?  definetly some cheap ppl bidding

I don't understand. Is he that desperate for money or did she force him into it. Cause when we talk about marriage we talk about kids and with such a great collection i can't think of any kid of this generation that wouldn't a proud of such a collection. I keep asking myself How many years, sacrifices did he make to reach that level? I still cannot understand. TRAITOR!! :evil:

Never claim you didn't had one. Just saying don't act like you run things, but now you open up a whole new can of worms.

people on system wars sure are hypocritical and judgemental do any of you even know that the guy admitted hes doing it to bring money into the house, and cause he doesn't have time to give his collection the attention it diserves? you'd all do the same if you had to give up something for something better, and you needed the money.

He's not giving up his hobby or anything. I don't think he has sold any of the new consoles that have been released. I'm pretty sure has a Wii, 360, PS3, and PSP still not being sold. I might sell a collection to pay for a wedding. But, I don't think I will ever in my life give up a hobby I've been enjoying for most of my life for anyone I don't care how infatuated I am. That's not the case here though.
