for you people with ungodly collections just estimate.

for you people with ungodly collections just estimate.
i've got about 200.
Computer: Too many to keep track
Gamecube: 12
Dreamcast: 97
Nintendo 64: 30
Intellivision: 38 + Intellicart
Atari 2600: 1 + Cuttle Cart
Game Gear: 6-7 (don't have a list for it)
Total: approx 185
Should be a little under 500 total for about 21 or 22 systems.![]()
Just broke 300, but ebay says i have to sell some, I'll have to wait untill 300 again.
My life and perception has changed, but my principals are the same.
EDIT: As of 10/20/10: I'm now at ~620.
Original 08 post:
As of 1/1/08 - I'm now at 902. Between 03-06, I was up to ~1450 games. Then I decided to open my store, and well, let's just say it went back down quite a bit...
Original 03 post:
I decided to add everything, and I came to 958, not including label variations or extras.
About 640 I think.
Hopefully 700 at the end of the year![]()
about 200 i need to get some more nes and 2600 games.

I've got 728 unique games for consoles (no PC/Mac stuff included), but some guys on this board have about that many just for the Atari 2600.
I can't wait to see some of their numbers.
We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.
Dunno...somewhere between 750 and 1000 I suppose, for various systems, with vcs and nes making the bulk of it...

The moral is, don't **** with Uncle Tim when he's been drinking!
I think the last time I added it all up it was around 2000.... That was about 6 months to a year ago.

probably close to 1000 original games. Last I checked i was over 900.. If I count cd backups then somewhere around 1800.
See ya Aug 2012. 'I swear I'M NOT DEAD! I'm feeling fine! I'M FEELING HAPPY!'
If you're bi-polar look into the new prescription drug Lamictal - It's changed my life (and I've spent 20 years looking for a cure.)
I've got 20 consoles and about 375 games amongst them (from 1 TG 16 game to 75 VCS games).
After I add in my handhelds and 8-bit stuff I top 400 (on 27 machines - although I have a lot of pirated 8-bit stuff I don't count which would easily put me over 1000).
It's funny comparing it to the collections here though. It's miniscule. But the people I know don't come here so they're impressed nonetheless![]()
Time will be when the broadest river dries
And the great cities wane and last descend
Into the dust, for all things have an end
It would be a project to count them up at this point!
To shed some light on this, let me give you a few systems that I can definitely estimate.
I have over 500 original PSX games.
I have over 500 Sega Genesis games.
I have over 250 Dreamcast games.
I have over 400 Atari 2600 games.
I have over 500 NES games.
I collect for every system, and I collect imports for many of them too. I have stacks of Famicom and PC Engine games that I haven't even had a chance to try out yet; and if you start counting diskette games, in some dark closet in my house there are probably 1000 of those.
It's a sickness. Someday I'll have a "real" count but for now the pictures will have to do - which I desperately need to re-do because my game room pictures are now 18 months old!
To elaborate on a previous post, I've estimated that I own approximately 30,000 games. My accountant forcing me to do inventory each year has helped me along with this estimate. Of course, this includes quite a lot of duplicates, but even without duplicates at this point between home and shop, easily 20,000 unique.
That's fucked up.
im almost at 1700 . my goal is too have 2000 at the end of the year .

Somewheres around or over 1850. I only have an accurate count for a few systems though as I'm in the process of adding stuff I've gotten but not had time to add the past 2-3 months.
DS-102 (4 imports, 4 extras)
PS2-225 (2 extras)
Wii-29
Gamecube-26 (1 import)
GBA-64 (6 imports)
PSP-6 (1 extra)
Game Gear-1
Wonderswan-3
Once everything else is fixed.....i'll probly have even more which means I'll be where I am now.
I only collect what I like and I sell off the rest, so I'm not a completist by any means. But this is what I DO have:
NES: 60 to maybe 70
Atari 2600: 15
Sega Saturn: 5
3DO: 9
Nintendo 64: 30
XBox: 3
PSX: 5
As of this moment, around 101 games. I take YoshiM's credo to heart, most of my collection is lean and mean, the most I have for any system is the NES, with 39 carts. And! I'm nearing the point where I could collect a few more games and probably be satisfied with it all. Or do I not know any better and am only scratching the surface of this collector mentality?
650 something the last time I counted
