Same copy versions of games you own?

Way too many to count. At least half of my GOG games catalogue is games that I already have either on a disc or on floppy discs, and some even on both. Also, GOG had a thing where if you had a Steam version of some game, you got the GOG version for free, further bolstering the catalogue.

As for console games (not counting Switch online):

The Legend of Zelda (NES/Virtual Console)
The Legend of Zelda II (NES/GBA/VC)
Super Mario Bros 2 (NES/GBA/VC)
Super Mario Bros 3 (NES/VC)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES/VC)
Super Mario World (SNES/VC)
Street fighter II Turbo (SNES/VC)
Secret of Mana (SNES/VC/Switch)
Secret of Evermore (SNES/VC)
Donkey Kong Country 1-3 (SNES/VC)
Wind Waker (Gamecube/Wii U)
Freedom Planet (PC/Wii U)

I probably forgot some games that I have at least double on consoles, but that's all that comes to my mind right now.

Yeah if you start counting all the doubles from bundles and sales the list becomes huge. I didn't count free versions, Portal 2 for example already came with a Steam code on the ps3 version. I played both, each had its pros and cons (looked better on PC, ran more stable on PS3). I also played Burnout Paradise again on PC, got it from a sale bundle.

Then there are the countless doubles from ps+ (although you don't technically own those) and free generational updates which blend in to BC nowadays. Oh and you had all those PS3 Vita cross buys as well as cross buys between PC and 360.

And I guess, Tetris is the winner when it comes to owning the most copies of the 'same game'.
