That yellow Pac Man portable, I found one just like it in our Electronics Recycling to my amazement!

This is amazing! You have one outstanding collection

 

Thank you! It isn't nearly as large a collection as many others I know of even here where I live. But I mainly collect the games I've wanted through time and not so much trying to collect for completion. After all, that would be a never ending goal and one that I simply wouldn't have the fund, time, nor the energy these days to try and keep up with!

 

But thank you again.

Very nice collection!  I'm not after every game either.  There simply wouldn't be enough time in a single life time to enjoy them all completely.  I'd need two more life times for that ;)  Funds?  What's that??

I saw that @socrates63 reacted to this old post of mine. I need to straighten up a few things and do a little dusting, but sometime soon I need to do another video tour of the ITC game room. While the larger pieces of furniture are still where they have always been, LOTS of stuff has been added since this video was done. I basically do not have any exposed wall surfaces in the room now due to shelving and other stuff that has been put on the walls..etc.

One major addition not in this video was the two large floating shelves I installed above the couch that have a good chunk of my PC big box games on it. Also the Genesis and Atari sections and the tabletops have expanded as well since that old video.

I stand corrected! I guess I've had my PC games and that shelving up longer than I thought! LOL! yeah..I guess with the exception of additional stuff added it basically looks the same.

Hahaha sorry for reviving old threads and stuff 🙂 Just looking around and poking my 👃 here and there.

Looking forward to your updated video, Jesse.

Well as I updated my reply. It honestly dosesn't look that much different. But in the video you see that the lower shelf of the Genesis boxed stuff still has room. Well, that is totally filled up and I've run out of room for more boxed Genesis stuff. I also sold off about 30% of my PS2 collection as I just didn't see my actually playing those games again and needed the space for other stuff. I still have the laser discs but those really need to go and I'm about on the verger of just donating them to goodwill and making them a tax deduction at the end of the year.

I also added more boxed and rares to my intellivision, 2600, 7800 etc.. so that large display case of Atari stuff is starting to look a little too crowded now as well. I also added a few more tabletops to the collection since that video was made I believe.

The console display case with the systems is also a bit more crowded as I have the PS3 and PS4 Pro jammed in there. I also added the PS2 back into the system and it sits under my Saturn now. Also dust covers were added to all the consoles since then so they aren't as exposed. The closet of doom is still puking extra boxes of stuff I don't have anywhere to put and don't want to put into the attic.
