Over the past week, large areas of Australiaās eastern seaboard have been ravaged by floods. Billions of dollars worth of damage has been done, and sitting quietly amidst that tally is this manās retro gaming hardware collection.
Aussie collector NFGās house in Queensland was among those affected, flood waters getting into his home and destroying many of his personal belongings. Among those belongings was an amazing collection of retro gaming hardware, once a glittering array of the mediumās past, now a worthless pile of mud-soaked plastic and chipboards (and rare Nintendo hanafuda cards).

The floods so far have cost twenty lives, with grave fears for dozens more still reported missing. To give you an idea of the scale of the disaster, late last week the total area of the state of Queensland lying underwater was larger than that of Germany and France put together.
