Retro games are a real treasure these days, as they have great sentimental and monetary value for any collector and lover of the medium. Reggie Fils-Aimé, former president of Nintendo, knows this very well, so he recently shared a photo with part of his collection of Nintendo 64 games.
The executive showed a box with a large selection of games from the iconic console and said that he will reorganize his titles in the coming days. The image excited Nintendo fans, to the point that several of them made purchase offers to get the Reggie Fils-Aimé games.
To everyone’s surprise, the executive was willing to part with his collection and sell his cartridges. He even said that he would sign them all to make them even more special.

Reggie Fils-Aimé left the presidency of Nintendo years ago, a position in which he won the approval of many players for his good and charismatic role at the company. Although he is no longer part of its ranks, he keeps in touch with all his fans who follow him on social networks.
Recently, the executive shared a photograph showing a box with part of his collection of Nintendo 64 games. Games such as The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Conker’s Bad Fur Day, GoldenEye 007, and others can be seen.
Some players were surprised by the treasure that the executive has in his hands, so several made him offers to buy it. In a joking tone, the youtuber Omni offered Fils-Aimé $7 USD for the whole box, a figure well below the real value of all the cartridges.
To his surprise, the former Nintendo president counteroffered: he asked for $70,000 USD for all the cartridges. He also promised the potential buyer to sign each of the games to make them even more valuable.
The offer was very attractive for many players, as having excellent games signed by a former Nintendo executive is like a dream come true for some fans. The community even came together to offer help to Omni and reach the amount of money that Fils-Aimé is asking for his games. Below you can see the image of his collection:
