The London Police raided a citizen's home for possession of devkit consoles, including those from Microsoft (e.g. Xbox), Nintendo, and Sony. SEGA hired multiple contractors to clear out its office prior to relocating in London, with those contractors and subcontractors being tasked, we're told, with getting rid of the devkits and consoles. In at least one instance, those were taken to a scrapyard and then sold to a reseller, who arranged to sell a lot worth $82,000 USD (61,000 GBP) to the Video Game Preservation Museum. Hiring a PI firm, SEGA coordinated with Fusion 85 and London City Police to raid the home of the reseller, seizing the devkits. In an email erroneously sent to GamersNexus by a waste removal contractor, though, we learn that it may not be theft at hand, but rather, corporate negligence by SEGA or the waste contractors.
