$50,000 NES collection stolen from 40-year collector who was going to use it to pay for his grandkids' college: "I don't think I will ever collect another thing again in my life"

NES.

Roger Holler spent 40 years trying to build the perfect NES collection. With just three games left in his quest for a complete library, tragedy struck at his home in Puyallup, a small city near Tacoma, Washington. He and his family returned home from an out-of-town trip to find their house had been broken into and their entire collection was missing.

Holler tells local news station KING 5 that the collection included over 860 NES games and "was valued between $50,000 to $100,000." The family has reported the theft to local police and is speaking with their insurance company, though it's unclear whether the collection was covered.
