Thats quite a collection. Maybe they owned a game hire store. Mrandypuppy seems to be catching up.... _________________

I'm pretty sure these pics have been posted here previously, and got my jaw dropping last time.
I am NO where near this guy's collection. And I know just how many games can fit into one of those bookshelves and he's got dozens of bookshelves.
To give you an idea, I currently have a single bookcase, with each shelf double-stacked. It has space left for maybe another 6 or 7 games. Anyhow, it currently has 950 games on it (total collection is 975 + some stragglers not in the database yet). He's gotta have 10,000 plus games in that room. _________________ GAMEparents

I'm guessin his dad (which i would believe owns the collection) pretty much beat the c$%p outa that kid for even touching a single thing in that room (like in the vid clip when he is seen 'poseing' with some of the items)...
I've seen these pics b4 also, it's pretty intense.... _________________

Ouch, I could never dream of owning that many! I'd like to ask them how many of those games they've actually PLAYED.  _________________

It's not about playing them... having the collector gene myself, I know what it's about. As a side effect of my obsession, I get to play video games.  _________________ GAMEparents

I was going to mention that, all those games and a rubbish TV to play them on is a crime.
It does make my 250+ collection look rather small though.

I think if most everyone from this board put there collections together(mostly mrandypuppy and David, anyone else?) we could prolly match that.
Ive got a good 250+, sonic does too.......hmmm. _________________

I can offer about 75!
I guess you make a good point there, mrandypuppy. I odn't have a lot of money to throw around, myself, so I only buy a game after a bit of research, and if I intend to play it. It's not easy when you make $70 a week maximum, like me. _________________

I have around 15. I need to get my collection growing. That's what you get for selling off your old games and consoles when a new one comes out..

Ouch - $70/week... I feel for you mate. In those conditions game-collecting becomes a very picky process. _________________ GAMEparents

Not bad - you're only 65 behind me on that platform. And I'm sure I have at least that many totally crap PS2 games.  _________________ GAMEparents

LOL, I said more then 400 so it could be closer to 500 for all I know cause I haven't updated my lists in ages and it keeps growing. I've also only been seriously collecting for a couple years where as before that I just picked up games I was really interested in and I did sell quite a few (these days I only sell the ones I have doubles of in one form or another). It's also good to have friends that share.

That's for sure, but I manage. I have to be careful with my purchases at the moment, I'm saving up for a Wii, got to keep my money level up. _________________
