Collecting Every Wii Game Is Difficult, But This Guy Did It Anyway

They are actually a little expensive in Europe. In America, you can find many for aroud 99 cents. Right now is the perfect time for these people to go after it. I doubt that many of these games shipped more than 1 thousand to ten thousand copies.

 

the odds are this guy paid something like 10$ ea for hundreds of the Wii titles. I yard sales and scavenge sometimes, and people are not all just throwing away their Wii games for 1$ each

generally at flea markets and yard sales these days people are pricing aggressively 

 

This guy probably spent like 5-10 grand completing his Wii set. 

 

I find it a lot more impressive when people complete old sets by grinding and hunting around at yard sales and such. if money isn't an issue then anyone can complete a set, which makes it less impressive

 

of course the Wii is easier to complete now than other things, but there is no way this guy was patient enough to wait around Gamestops and yard sales for even half of the titles. no way

He also trades a lot of games since he has many duplicates of some his games so not all the games where bought with cash a large chunck of those games where aquired via trades.  Plus he is a king at bargaing down prices he usually spends less then 2/3 of the orginal asking price for most of the used games he buys.
