I'm just wondering if any of you guys collect video games, and not just Laserdisc's.

My Consoles (the ones I can think of at the top of my head):
Panasonic 3DO (FZ-1)
Philips CD-i (Magnavox Branded, and Model 550)
Atari 2600 (The video cable is very wonky, but system itself works fine, otherwise)
Atari Lynx (Model 2)
SEGA Genesis (HD Graphics Model 1)
SEGA Genesis (Model 2)
SEGA Game Gear
SEGA CD (Model 2)
SEGA Dreamcast (Two working ones, two others with bad GD-ROM drives)
SEGA Saturn (US Round Buttons Model)
SEGA Master System (First version with Snail Maze built in)
NEC PC Engine Duo-R
Nintendo NES
Nintendo SNES (Not Working)
Nintendo SNES Mini
Nintendo 64
Nintendo Gameboy (I own three of them, one being a Black "Play it Loud" model, a regular white one, and another white one having a rotted screen)
Nintendo GBA SP (Back-lit model, I think)
Nintendo Gamecube
Nintendo DSi
Nintendo 3DS
Nintendo DS Lite
Nintendo Wii
Nintendo WiiU
SONY PS1 (I own two. One works, and the other does not.)
SONY PS2
SONY PS3
SONY PSP
SONY PSVita
XBOX 360

I used to collect video games, but not anymore. Some of the consoles I had:

Sega Mega Drive 1+2
Sega Mega CD 1+2
Sega 32X
Sega Saturn
Sega Dreamcast
Philips CD-i 450
Goldstar 3Do
Nes
Snes
Atari 2600
Playstation
Playstation 2
Playstation 3

And some handheld ones that I rarely used. Today, I only have my Sega Mega Drive model 1 and Sega Dreamcast left, plus a broken Sega Saturn (Japanese model) somewhere. My brother have a PS3 and I've been thinking of getting Grand Theft Auto V for it.

Quite a bit, mostly 16-bit (Neo, PC Engine, SNES/SFC, Genesis/MD) handhelds, and later Nintendo consoles. I haven't counted my games in years but I'd imagine I'm at 400 or so by now.

I use to, before the big nintendo craze and storage wars shows ruined it

Fat PS3 60GB
Slim PS3 120GB

No games for me. Bought the first one on release week to watch blu-ray movies. Second one was a gift. Both been replaced by blu-ray disc players around 2008. Since then collecting dust.

if you didn't update the fat ps3 substance that could be worth a nice hunk of change.

The lists so far have been impressive.

Started out on Colecovision and Intellivision......Wish I still had those consoles.
Atari 2600 fanned the fire.
Was given a 5200 for Xmas circa 1983 and quickly forgot about the previous
gaming consoles.

Bought a Sega Genesis in the early 90's.
Still have that platform with approx 50 games.
Also have a DreamCast with 38 games.
Very cool and underrated platform. Wish it would have done better and later generations issued.

Have in current use:
Resident Evil 5 Elite 360 125 GB Console. (In-Service.)
Final Fantasy Elite 360 250 GB Console. (Backup)
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Elite 360 250 GB Console.(Backup)
Gears of War 3 XBox 360 Slim 320 GB Console. (In-Service.)
For the 360's we have approx. 55 games.

And for Christmas this year obtained a day one XBOX ONE with four games and an extra controller.
Very excited about this next generation device.
Anticipating games issued this year along with
play enhancing upgrades as time goes by........

Not a collector per se, however still don't have the heart to ditch the Sega Genesis ! LoL !!!!!

Xbox Gamer Tag "Suns of AMPHION"
See ya in Cyber-Space ...........

I've never been a Nintendo fan (honestly, the Snes is horrible imo). In fact, I'm really all for Sega and Playstation. The Mega Drive has such an amazing library of games, Gunstar Heroes alone would make it the best video game conosle of all time. Luckily, it also has Streets of Rage 2 and Sonic The Hedgehog 3 which only makes it better. Sega Dreamcast is awesome too, Power Stone is one of the most amusing games I've ever played.

I still have Snatcher for the Sega Mega CD somewhere, signed by Kojima himself. I love that game but it feels so excessive to have such a valuable copy of that game. Don't know what to do with it...

Got a few consoles, don't play them as much as I used to.

Currently . . .

Sega Genesis
Super Nintendo
Turbo Duo
Neo Geo CD
Sega Saturn
Sony Playstation
Sega Dreamcast
PS2
Xbox
Xbox360

Used to have . . .

I actually did buy Ghost in the Shell recently for the Playstation. I read that it supported 16x9 widescreen so I wanted to see what that looked like.

PS: let's try not to have this thread devolve into this one . . . Sega Saturn

in X-mas '89;

Here's some pics (not all) of my video game collection:

CD-i and Atari 2600


All of my CD-i stuff


My 3DO & My only game complete in the long box


My other two 3DO games


My NES


My Famicom games, and the only NES game I could easily find


Guess what this amazing game is.


My SEGA Genesis Model 1 & Model 2 SEGA CD (The Genesis is my favorite console ever.)


My boxed Genesis games (Son of The Mask doesn't deserve to be next to them.)


Some of my loose Genesis games


My SEGA Game Gear


I was too lazy to take a pic of my GBA, but I easily could locate this neat game (A little game: Guess what anime this is based on. )

Please tell me what you think.

I collect many games for different systems.

I acquired a NES machine at a flea market 6 - 7 years ago, didn't work well, turned out to be the 72-pin connector that needed replacement.
Works well and I have a couple of games for it, Super Mario, Duck hunt (with Zapper), Chip 'n Dale, Simpsons, etc.

For the Super Nintendo I have Super Mario Allstars, Blues Brothers, Prehistorik Man, Lost Vikings, Unirally, Donkey Kong Country.

I have two Playstation 3 systems, both upgraded to 1 TB each and new thermal compound on the GPU and CPU. At least doing some to prevent YLOD.

For the Playstation 2 I have the GTA games and some PS1 games, Duke Nukem - Time to Kill and Land of the Babes.

For the Sega Mega Drive 2 (Genesis 2) I have Moonwalker, Aladdin, Lion King, Lotus Turbo Challenge and some others.

tpgb12: What do you think about the 3Do? I haven't had one for six years but the few games I played on it were pretty awful... Road Rash was playable though, and I've only played Return Fire on Playstation but I prefer Desert Strike. I had Supreme Warrior and some Dungeons and dragons game and those were some of the worst games I've ever played in my whole life, even though there are FMV-games that I find tolerable.

I also had a Famicom along with a Disk System back in the days, all CIB and in very good condition. Nice collectibles but I never tried any of it out.

I only have 3 games so far, but so far I actually really like it a lot. Gex is my favorite game on it so far, and it's quite a fun platformer.

I have a pretty large collection of games and some consoles - been collecting since about 1985.

A Laseractive (with all four gaming pacs)
SNES
Gamecube
PS2
PS1 (US)
PS1 (Japanese)
PC-FX
Sega Genesis and CD
Sega Dreamcast
Sega Saturn
3DO
Jaguar (with CD attachment)

I also have:
1) a gameboy player for the gamecube so I can play the various gameboy games
2) an adapter for the SNES that allows me to play famicom, nes and super famicom (no big deal since it is so easy to modify an SNES console) games.
3) A sega power base I gutted and mounted in a project box (to fit a genesis 2) for Sega Master System games.


Probably my favorite system is the sega cd - while it didn't have a huge library of u.s. games it had a pretty high percentage of top notch games - especially rpgs (my favorite genre along with strategy games - better yet strategy rpgs!) And those handsome oversize jewel cases (which I know some people don't like) look mighty impressive on s shelf with all those matching blue spine labels.

I have been focusing on reproductions for the SNES as of late - especially from Timewalk. They turn out some very handsome stuff.

LMAO !!!!!!!!
Right on brother !!!!!!!!

i forgot about that one, and i too agree, that went out of hand
anyway i only have 2 systems left.
SNES and atari lynx.
i haven't played my SNES in years so that's going to be sold, just taking up space which i can be breating in
and the atari Lynx is hand held so i'll keep that and play that when i'm at car repair
