Any classics?  Probably not.

TGA didn't have many classics.  I seem to recall a paperboy (broken) and maybe a bump and jump or dig dug. Maybe a burgertime.  I don't really remember (they had like 3 classic cabs amongst a sea of imports).  TGA was a pretty "niche" place, which may have contributed to their failure (combined with awful location and downright awful luck).  They had a ton of import games: mostly candies and Bemani games.  I'd love to go out to that auction, but it's a good 13+ hour drive for me.  I did that once (to TGA even)...never again.

I don't know what turnout is going to be like, but that auction may be a chance to snag some truly rare stuff (probably lots of Bemani artwork) at rock bottom prices.
