Quoted from Laseriffic:

She told me she saw american pickers or something like that and she knew that is was worth a fortune. I wonder if she still thinks that, this was 2 years ago.

That's the problem with those shows, they overprice stuff and make people think they can get a million bucks for crap games.

I saw an episode of Pawn Stars and they picked up some generic table (can't remember what it was). They paid like $800, spent a couple hundred to get it restored and then were told it was worth like $2000! I looked the table up and it was worth like 800-1200 tops. I would love to know what they actually sold it for, but I bet it's still sitting in their shop. lol.
