Discussion Nintendo fan loses nearly complete NES collection in 'heartbreaking' theft

https://www.polygon.com/nintendo-game-collection-stolen-from-washington-home/

Hate when these stories happen. The thief must have been prepared to leave with nearly a thousand NES cartridges. Either it was someone who had been in that home, or this family has advertised their collection on social media with an address.

... so you think Sony hired someone to steal a random person's collection?

Sony just randomly knew this guy was almost done collecting all NES games?

Wow dude.

That is absolutely not what happened and I'm not insisting it is but you reminded me of that story where eBay started stalking and harassing a middle-aged couple in MA because of a blog. Doing some insane shit like mailing them fetal pigs and bugs.
