The Frisco Community Development Corp. board voted unanimously Thursday to approve the terms of an agreement to bring the nonprofit Videogame History Museum to town.
The museum’s collection of tens of thousands games, consoles, artifacts and memorabilia on the gaming industry has been described as the most comprehensive in the world. Most of the collection is in storage around the country, with bits and pieces used in traveling exhibits and expos. The Frisco museum would be the nation’s first of its kind dedicated to the video game industry.
Plans are to open a National Videogame Museum 1.0 using nearly 10,400 square feet inside the Frisco Discovery Center by April. Museum founders would then kick off a capital campaign to raise funds for version 2.0, a much bigger facility at a place to be determined in Frisco.
