Nice collection dude, I only collect games not consoles or posters, but after seeing your collection I'm a little jelous lol.  I probably have around 50ish PS3 games, 30ish 360 games, 16 wii games, 20ish game boy advance, 30ish ds, 10-15 3ds, 20ish psp, 30ish orginal xbox, 20ish ps2, 8 ps1, 7 gamecube, 10n64 and 5 genesis.  I really gotta work on my PS1 and PS2 collections, so many great games I missed out on and have to track down, I made sure I didn't make the same mistake for the PS3, I basically have every must own game in my eyes.

That is a great collection and spread out over many consoles. I have the same Minus Sony products. Sony and I broke up years ago.

Got any pics? do you have many of the original Xbox's? I know they came out in a few different colours same with the 360 there's gotta be a few people out there that have saved some.

Nice collection. Very neatly displayed too! I have a pretty decent collection myself. Mostly Nintendo, but I have some decent Sega and Sony things as well. Around 27 consoles, 230 games, and various art books/figures/posters. You've got me beat on how nicely it's displayed though. By a long shot. I want to get one of those glass display cases to put some of my rarer stuff in.




8th gen predictions. (made early 2014)
PS4: 60-65m
WiiU: 30-35m
X1: 30-35m
3DS: 80-85m
PSV: 15-20m

Oh, sweet! I had no idea Ikea had those. There's one no more than 10 minutes from my house. I was holding off 'cause I thought I'd have to pay an arm and a leg at some fancy store. I might have to make a trip to Ikea some time soon..

You might wanna consider getting back together for the PS4 lol.



I have a lot more games then you, but youre gettup is a lot fancier. I wouldn't want large statues, glass cases, and framed posters, but I do like how classy your set up is. Right now all my games are shelved on Ikea shelving, but in the future, when I own a house, I want to have a room in the basement where I have the shelving go directly into the wall.

As for what I collect, I collect games which I like. I've been playing games for over 20 years, and I've pretty much refined my tastes now. There isn't a specific collection, it's just games I like. I usually try to get all the games of my favorite franchises, but a lot of my favorite franchises have hit or miss games, and I don't want to own a bad game from a franchise I like, just because of the IP.

Looking at my collection, it's mostly JRPG's, and a lot of Nintendo/Sony games. I'm pretty big on Nintendo console games pre-Wii, and Nintendo handheld games, and I have to say my PS1/PS2/PSP collection is great. PS3 is pretty small because I switched to 360 primarily this gen, but it will grow when I buy a replacement PS3, and PS4 will dominate.

I have a couple figures too, but nothing big. A Yosgi Bobblehead, Gears of War figurine, but it's mostly just boxed games. I'm most proud of my N64/SNES/GBA/GBC collection, owning a boxed game just feels so much more special then owning a game which came in a DVD case.
