    What an Insane Video Game Collection

    I saw this earlier and was like damn you have to wonder how much was spent on all this stuff over the years?

    Here are a few pictures:

    Best video game I've played, Discs of Tron. Never seen it except in arcades.

    I don't really get collections like this. So you have every game? Great. I'll just play all of the good ones on an emulator and get the same experience for free, instead of paying thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars.

    Most people who have actual OCD just clean their house for 4 hours a day or lock their doors six times. People who are just nerds with too much money buy shit like this.

    I kind of agree, but emulators are not perfect. There's also something to be said about the experience of having a controller in your hand.

    Also, collecting can be fun in its own right.

    Nice collection.
    Not sure why people cant 'understand' this collection.
    Why is this any different to a stamp collection or baseball cards.
    Huge market for retro video games, some people who grew up in 80's etc now comfortable with alot of disposable income.
    some nes games have sold for 10k+

    I have a similar setup except the collection is lego not nintendo.

    People prob think I have ocd as I only collect sets complete with instructions and original boxes. Generally pay about double the price for vintage sets if they have box and instructions


    also dirty b you probably cant remember but in around 2007 you made a thread on nwp about a star wars lego that was $500 to buy which was pretty ground breaking at the time. That exact lego set sealed in box now sells for about 4 - 5k

    Who needs instructions for lego?

    What do they say? "This piece goes here."

    Just because you can doesn't always mean you should.

    The problem with the world today is that nobody does anything based on principal anymore.

    If you reach your 80's, consider your life in overtime. Sudden death overtime.

    I'll never understand how swimmers get bitten by sharks. Can they not hear the music?

    I recently posted a picture of my NES, so I get using the real controller. Objectively, the NES controller is actually terrible. But it's still fun to use sometimes.

    I play most of my old games on the first generation PSP that I won in a Neverwinpoker.com freeroll. But button layout works very well for NES, SNES, and Genesis.

    I understand collecting stamps and baseball cards even less. At least with collecting video games you get to play video games.

    I know of two NES games in that price range. The NES World Championships cart is a rare piece of gaming history. Micon and I went and he did quite well.

    $20k for Stadium Events is so stupid. It's literally the exact same game as World Class Track Meet, with a different sticker.
