I know you're probably beating yourself up for not buying me that awesome Rush Warrior painting when you had the chance. You held out, thinking you'd come up with just the right gift all on your own, and now that you realize that I wouldn't ask for anything less than a perfect gift, someone probably beat you to it.
So here's your next chance: every single game ever for the NES. That's 781 games, including Friday the 13th! (It doesn't say that one specifically, but, really, if every US-released game is in there, it'd have to be included.)
Now, you may be thinking that I'll probably play about 12 of these games, realize that most of them suck, and then store them in a pile in my closet among all of that other stuff in there that "no, really, I really need." And that I'll pull the power pad out and use my hands to cheat for a single game before I remember that it's not very fun and then start throwing it against the wall in frustration.
But it's got the Power Glove! And the UForce! Remember the UForce? Remember how you didn't have the UForce, but that one asshole kid named Kenny bragged about it at school but wouldn't invite you over to his place, so you never got to play it, but it looked really awesome the way that you played it without touching it, but just by waving your hands over it? Well, this is your chance to help me get back at Kenny. Screw that punk.
Right now, the bidding's at just $6,600, and the reserve hasn't been met. It's your chance to swoop in and win this for me, but the clock is ticking - the auction ends on the 18th. And, please, don't balk at the price tag - that's just gauche. It's the thought that counts, not the money.
Oh, also, it apparently doesn't come with R.O.B. the Robot. so you'll need to pick that up for me separately.

FYI - Kenny is the one selling all these games. If you don't buy the lot, you'll be letting him get the best of you again. Are you going to live in Kenny's shadow all of your life? You make me sick.
Be a man and put Kenny in his place. All your life you've been stuck on World 5-2, but now is your chance to warp to world 8. Don't blow this - I'd really like to play Karate Champ before I leave for xmas.
