PS1 games and retro gaming treasures are treasures in their own right
What makes a console successful is above all the games it hosts. The Tomb Raider license did a lot of good for the sales of the first PlayStation. The first game in the series can sell for over €200,000.
A PS1 game worth over $140,000 and you may have it
Yes, you read that right. Lara Croft's first adventure is worth its weight in gold. The Heritage Auctions is offering to buy a version of Tomb Raider for $140,000. A very special copy of this PS1 game. The sealed American version is in excellent condition and is one of the first produced. You will have to bid at least $140,000 to the current owner of the game to get it.
Better still, you can open your old boxes and see if you don't have the game at home. Obviously, it has to be protected and in excellent condition to be worth a lot of money. PS1 games seem to be very popular on the market. The first Resident Evil, another game that contributed to the success of the PS1, is also worth a pretty penny in perfect condition.
