As you may have heard, earlier this week the mysterious Nintendo PlayStation sold for $ 360,000 USD. There has been an emergency after the owner previously returned a $ 1,2 million donation. Who last bought it, though? While it was believed that Oculus VR founder Palmer Luckey, it turns out that it actually wasn't for him.
In accordance with Forbes (via Kotaku), the program was acquired by Greg McLemore. If the name doesn't ring, you're the founder of Petsts.com – a website from the 90s. Part of this site was bought by Amazon and from there McLemore made a lot of money with various dots that allowed him to continue his "20 year journey" to collect all kinds of video game memory. He also runs i an online gaming encyclopedia
Here is what the winner of Forbes said:
I bet I don't have this newly buried machine somewhere
I am interested in sharing my passion for sports. One of the areas I focus on is the emergence of games, including how ancient arcade games inspired video games and how early video games had an impact on future design. I believe the Nintendo PlayStation fits in well with this focus.
The idea is to create a collection he has developed over the years (including over 800 cash machines and many other games, magazine trade and original works of art) and to build a video game museum.
Thankfully, this wasn't the first time McLemore was trying to buy a plan. A few years ago, she reportedly gave her owner $ 100,000.
