I'm somewhere between 700-800 right now. Probably 20 to 30 SNES and Genesis games are CIB. Outside that, all carts are loose (in UGCs), and discs are CIB. Only a handful sealed NES/SNES (a couple raw, a couple VGA)

Considering downsizing in favor of flash carts. My son learning to crawl and grab things off of shelves may force my hand in a few months. lol

How big is your game collecting e-peinz?

How big is yours these days? Over the years I've been re-reading many posts of yours, and am genuinely curious where your collection is these days.
 

It's big enough that his username SHOULD be "Both Mario's Nuts"
 
Hahaha.  That's funny.  I'm not 100% sure on the exact number...but, based on a quick count, more than I need/less than I want.

It's really interesting to see the results of this topic.  I wouldn't say that more or less games make anyone more or less of a collector.  It's more what kind of collector you are.  Kudos to everyone that follows their collecting hobby (or any hobby, for that matter).  


Also, I guess I should have specified that I meant physical games.  I have every game, for every system, up through the 360 generation or so digitally.  It was, compariavely speaking, cheap to get.  And, I suppose, you could get it for free if you knew where to look and had infinite patience/bandwidth.

I'm at around 600 I'd say?


Trying to beef up the Genesis and SNES stuff a lot but SNES I haven't had crazy luck with locally and Genesis I'm trying to do strictly CIB.

About 1800. It has grown significantly since I started playing imports. They are so cheap!

~2400, about 2250 of which are CIB's. Looking for about 75 more GameCube CIB's and then 150ish N64 boxes and I'm done.

Around 600. NES prices are going down around here for common and mid tier so that will be growing. I mostly collect NES, SNES, and Genesis.

About 2,000? My collection app has me at about 1,800 but I've gotten lax on updating it with stuff like PS4 and Vita games I buy from LRG as well as just having a few stacks of games I never bothered to put in...

If I stuck to my guns I bet it would be about 1,900 something easy.

Oh and that's physical only.

Way, way too many, especially now that I'm faced with the daunting task of moving it all. On a related note, any deep-pocketed folk out there looking for a couple truckloads of games & hardware?

I had no idea you were that far off from a CIB 64 set, thought for sure you'd had that done.

Between all systems, probably around 3500-4000 games. Maybe more, because so many are boxed up and I just don't have the room. It is fun to pull out an old system and games to just play them. I'm totally into the TG16 fix again this month  !

It's the set I care the least about. Have had a cart set and 95% of the manuals for 5 plus years. Haven't even tried finishing up the boxes I need for a couple years.
