Well... 36 PS3 games, 6 X360 games, 3 Wii games, about a bagillion PS2 games, 15 N64 games, 20 GCN, 15 SNES games, 15 PSX games, 10 NES games, 1 3DS game, 6 DS games, 20 GBA games, 10 GB games. i believe that adds to a metric fuckton.
How many games do you own?
86 on steam probably 10 actual pc discs, and my consoles (NES, SNES, N64, PS1, PS2, DS lite, Gameboy, GBA, Wii, Gamecube, Xbox 360) around 800-900 maybe? (I might be low-balling that number)
I am that person to never sell games unless they are REALLY bad, for me I was able to part with casino games, sports games... gears of war, kung fu panda, shrek.... etc. Though to be fair I have maybe 10 of my boyfriends games :D

Across all of my conoles and only talking about full retail disc/cart games, somewhere between 1200 and 1300 last count. That is a collection growing since the mid 90s, but mostly it has grown since about 2002, with the Gamecube and GBA. The consoles would be Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gameboy Advance, DS, 3DS, SNES, N64, Gamecube, Wii, PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP, Xbox, Xbox 360, PC/Mac, Sega Master System and Sega Mega Drive - all still connected and functioning. I generally add about 120-150 games a year and spend somewhere between $2-3,000 on them. What can I say .... I like computer games.
Around this guy's number. 3 arcade machines too.

how do you get around connecting them at the same time? I have 6 older consoles hooked up to a 2004 CRT TV and I have to use two A/V switches which is a little bit of a pain.
I have a newish plasma television. The HDMI is covered for the 2 systems. Then I have a splitter box for composite/component machines. Lastly, the old, old machines (SNES,SMD & SMS) have to be changed on use. I don't find it a problem, unless I move the television and have to remember all the cables.
My list is a couple months out of date but it says 146. With PS+ stuff each month it grows faster than I can play them.
I'd have well over a thousand games, though the majority are ancient PC games sitting in my parents' attic

Recently I've been asking my friends this and they think I'm kind of odd for having about 150-175 (both PS3 and 360) but seeing some people post on other threads makes me seem as though I'm on the smaller end of the spectrum compared to some of you!
And how many of those have you finished to the end?
According to the terms of use: none, I just own the right to play them until they decide to change the terms of use.
I have about 25 games on my shelf. Mostly ps3 and DS games, with two or three 360 games, and two or three ps2 games. I also have about 7 classic ps1 games on psn, about 15 indie games on steam, 5 or 6 psp games on my go (along with a shitload of GBA and SNES roms because I'm a terrible person), and a few n64 games in a box somewhere. I can rarely afford to keep my games for a long period of time. If I still owned every ps2 and ps3 game I ever bought I'd probably be in the hundreds too.
Edit: Also you guys are weird. I've played all my games. Why else would I buy them?
I'm a piker compared to most of you...i currently own maybe a dozen games across console and PC. Would be more but I trade off games when i'm done w/ em. Hell, if anyone's for swapsies, PM me and we'll talk.

Because video games, like all things, can have historical and sentimental value.

I don't really see how someone could have sentimental value for a game they've never played, but I guess the historical value makes sense from either the perspective of a collector, or someone who intends to play it eventually. I just dont understand the people saying they have about 200 games and have only played half of them. They must have some money to blow.
