The inner child inside of me is screaming, "Bank loan, bank loan, bank loan you're an adult now the bank will gladly lend you money to relive your childhood!",

The inner child inside of me is screaming, "Bank loan, bank loan, bank loan you're an adult now the bank will gladly lend you money to relive your childhood!", but the inner and in debt mid twenty year old I really am is saying, "Keep dreaming" — a museum should buy these, $550K is probably a bargain considering the total collection could be close to a million maybe even more in a few short years.

I don't think the bank would loan an in debt mid twenty year old over half a million dollars to buy videogames.

  You'd be surprised... I recently got pre-approved with my girlfriend for over that amount from the bank for a home loan and it ain't easy getting a loan in Australia compared to other countries either. I say to your sarcasm, check mate.

    That is very different from a loan to buy videogames. They can take the house if you default.

  You'd be surprised. Every time I walk into the bank here in the UK, they literally beg me to take out a loan because I have no debt and a good income. Last time I was in there, I had to get quite angry at the customer service person because she just wouldn't drop it. I did the polite "No thanks", "No, really, I'm not interested", "No THANK YOU", "Look, I'm going to start shouting in a minute, I have told you NO" and they STILL kept pushing

    This is my experience too. Whenever I enter a bank to deposit an occasional cheque they are desperate to offer personal loans, investment advice, mortgages, credit cards etc. A polite decline is often ignored and they aggressively go for the sale.

Heck, someone could buy the lot, and turn around and sell them in pieces. You could very likely make more than a million bucks in total.

  Definitely man, easily. It would be good to see these go to a serious collector or someone who will treat them right and keep them in pristine condition. A gaming museum would be the best choice.
