I say, "What a bunch of a-holes." Who cares about gaming that much? Get a life, losers!

For the most part, with PS3, I had bought close to 75 games last year.  What ended up happening was that at least 20 of those were never played more than 15minutes, if I ever played it at all.  Fast forward to now, and only about 2-3 games even interest me on PS3, and one of them was a game I got in 2013.

That being said, if someone owns multiple consoles, good for them.  If they do, they're going to spend more time with one over others.  It's their money and their time.  It has no effect on me.  I couldn't see myself doing that, though.

I own a dreamcast, and a Genesis.  If I'm not gaming on PS3, and I'm using a TV to do it, it's the genesis.  But, my Genesis hasn't been touched for months, despite owning over 80+ games for it.

Funny how many responses have mirrored what I was thinking of posting - unless you play games to review them professionally, I don't think there's time for more than two consoles (plus a handheld if you are away enough). Nintendo has set itself up well in this regard as 'the second system' (and handheld), as it has the least overlap with the other platforms.

My guess is that even people with all systems will gravitate towards one for multiplats, and the bias against certain games will still exist - not because the game isn't available, but because they were too busy with other games to bother.

I could probably get all consoles, I just don't have time. Even with only my Wii U, PS3, 3ds and PC, I barely even have time to play most games that I own. I guess I'll say I'm surprised that they keep up with so many games at once.

I kind of agree on this. Every generation I will typically buy that gen's Nintendo console and handheld and the PlayStation for that gen. Other than a 2-year flirtation with the 360 thanks to some early-gen Japanese exclusives, there is no incentive for me to invest in Xbox, because I don't care for Microsoft's first-party and the third-party stuff is generally also on PlayStation, with a few third-party exclusives on PlayStation that I like.

Spending a bit too much time & money for that hobby.
And they should give me thier monthly pay for 1 month for free.

It's nice to own multiple systems and all but a lot seem smug about it.

First of all I'd like to say fair play to the people who can afford to do this, but in all honestedy I'm more confused at how they make the time for every console (and PC game if they do that as well)

Me myself i cant afford to own every console so I've just gone for the one Ive always beived will give me the most enjoyment and for the past 4 gens its been all the plays station consoles, before that it was Sega megadrive then Sega Saturn I also owned a Sega Dreamcast.
But I'd never have the time anyway as I have other hobbies rock climbing, keeping fit and getting away from the city to go walking.

Yeah I don't have every system of every gen but I do have quite a few (I had/have every system of last gen, at least—my DS is gone but 3DS can play DS games anyway so it's w/e) and from here on out I intend to at least have good access to every system—all that's left for this gen is the PS4 which I intend to get as soon as I save up the money from disposable income.

Like other people said the biggest thing I can't afford is actually the time... if it was just as simple as buying the system's that'd be easy, but I have to have money to buy all the games for them and the time to actually play them, lol.

At the very least I try to prioritize Nintendo systems because they're the most fun for me, followed by PS systems, followed by Xbox systems. For people who can afford them all: good for them, they've either got a good job resulting in solid disposable income, or maybe they're spoiled or something (or I guess they could've won the lottery lol).

To people who can actually play them all: I don't think there are many people like that out there (most gamers I know tend to focus on just playing a few games instead of a large variety anyway) but good for you. It's not really my business and hey, if they can actually balance a social life, their physical health, a job, and whatever else with gaming, more power to them. But maybe they just don't care about any of that, and it's whatever. *shrug*

I think if I have a backlog keep working down on then theirs must be insane. No way I could rationalize owning three systems anymore, just do not have the time for it to make sense.
