Joel from the Last Gamer YouTube channel has more than twice as many games as this man. He was the record holder before this guy when he only catalogued a portion of his collection, but doesn’t seem interested in going through the process again due to it being time consuming. https://youtu.be/Ox7En_cYAa8
That’s a lot of games, almost as much as John Hancock’s collection.
I like forbes news about update story,thank
That room will be on fire and bye bye collection
Imagine being his son
Wow! That’s passion, dedication and just fascinating! An amazing story. The Hitman PS looks fantastic!
I bet he enjoyed the quarantine, I would’ve never been bored.

TuT
Last Gamer Has a much larger collection
he sleeps in the garage while the games have their own room
C L A S S I C
This man is the greatest I’ve seen him before on here he literally has every console and every game full complete sets think the only one he still has to work on is the rest of the ps1 games
If i have enough money, i hope my collection will be that big one day. 😉 I really want to get proper home/basement for it.
The only person in the world that plays Retroarch fully legal. 😄
Cool collection, but it’s not the largest collection. This one is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjcoAPs9h8Y
Bro all I need is my snes and a copy of Batman and Robin adventures and Im set forever
That is an amazing collection keep up the love of collecting and play video games.
how many of them have you played
Cool story, but most of those are just common games. This just screams hoarder. I mean keeping cereal boxes, infinity/skylanders, and Barbie games…. Cmon guy. Again, cool story, but pretty lame.
Bro, cover that window unless you don’t care about sun fading.
collection like this is priceless !!!
Does he have Stadium Events on the NES?
Quarantine be like
– mom, I wanna buy some games
– we have games at home.
*games at home*
I wish was you.
This is sad.
His children will have their best time in their lives
I gotta beat your record bro!!! Jk amazing collection!!!
Super Mario Bros. 2 (Japan) is a totally different game to Super Mario Bros. 2 (World)
Wow such a great collection to see! The organization is great!
Gamestop here we take it all for 3.65
Lucky kids
this is not passion, this a sickening disease, like out of control cancer rotting ones brain
$1.6 million is the price of one unopened Super Mario nowadays.
Dude u got an extra n64 or Xbox 1 I can have?
Are you worried about sun fading near the window?
I used to collect the video games
but then I took an arrow to the knee..
I have all of those games downloaded already! Woo!
I don’t even have my own phone 😔
Wow man
Wow! This guy inspires me so much!
That’s how game chasin’ go
I’d like to know what he does for a living 🤑
Imagine him saying "dang it I have nothing to play"
If the world ended and he was left in a underground bunker with all of these games he would have enough games to last a lifetime.
I think he took the title from Last Gamer. Didn’t they get to have an argument?
I Love this Antonio ❤️❤️ I subbed to you.
He’s just organized hoarder.
His a very good boy
