    Just in case anyone cares, moving a collection of this size sucks.

    If you don't mind Borman, how many games and consoles do you have?
    I can only imagine how much work you have to move everything.

    A rare Xbox One controller pickup. Sadly missing the stand it would have come with, but I doubt many of these have been sold to the public so far.

    Video incoming at some point.

    I just know that key Microsoft people have posted pictures of it, but that's it. Major Nelson posted one, as did a Microsoft Europe branch. They said it was rare and unavailable to the public. Good enough for me :)

    Nice! It's actually quite nice for something internal though. Sounds like you had to be up high in the chain to receive one.

    Strange one it is, seeing it has Xbox 360 consoles on the sticker, that's applied to an Xbox One controller. Looking to be from March/April 2015 and my best guesstimate is that has to do with backwards compatibility on the Xbox One.
    Xbox One BC announcement was at E3 in June 2015.

    Major Nelson posted his pic in Dec 2014! So maybe I'm way off....

    How did your move go? I moved over a thousand games and dozens of boxed consoles across the ocean, I sympathize with you! It's a big deal indeed! And it'll make you think twice about selling any of the items you had to painfully move before! haha.

    It went alright haha. Still need to move again in a couple months, but hopefully that will be a permanent move. Lots of stuff still boxed up.

    You know I offered to take that big heavy metal tower of yours so you wouldn't have to lug it around. Offer is still open. :p
