 One bad ass collection (http://www.vintagecomputing.com/index.php/archives/103)




Those pictures look familiar? I swear I have seen this before, and maybe know the user from another site :hmm:

this was on benheck.com a while ago, people were getting pissed (i have no idea why) saying I HATE RICH PEOPLE and PHOTOSHOP'd .  The mod eventually closed the topic.  i have to agree though, impressive collection.  i have some of those on my computer.

the pics are on digital press thats where youve seen them they also posted the interview there a while back

it is a very large collection its a shame some people have to down it. if hes been collecting for 16 years thats way before ebay so a person could unmass a giant collection before ebay came along.

People are jealous and petty.

I don't doubt for a second that it's a real collection. Look at the amount of games I added to my collection in the year before I moved. About 1000 and I didn't hunt every day. Most of those were bought locally too. Screw all the haters too. I think I know what province/city area this guy is in but I ain't gonna say a damn thing. If he's where I think he's from then his collection is even more impressive cause the buds I have there tell me that the scene is tough at best.

I was looking for this collection on DP the other day. I posted about this already some where on RFG but I can;t remember where.

Wow what a great interview.  ::)

That is simply amazing, and impressive. Though I'll never, ever have the money to do that, you got to admire his effort.

I thought you posted something about that collection a while back, but I could not find it. ???

Also, I am pretty sure I know who it is over at DP as well. If I ever buy a house with a basement, I know what I am doing ;D (can you say basement of doom ;))

here (http://videogamecollectors.com/gallery/Videogames) is the collection.

I've seen this one before at DP and elsewhere as well...very nice collection to say the least.  I was truly amazed when I saw pics of it for the first time...just shows that there's always a bigger fish ;)

Yea wasn't that the combination of 2 huge collectors who got married?

I remember seeing the pics but i don't feel like reading the article now.

So shoot me.

Are you think about achika and portnoyd getting together?

the one thing that makes the collection look huge is it looks like everythings boxed ..i have about a hundered genisis games boxed and it fills up three shelves  then my 100 or so loose ones dont even take up a third of a shelf.  my room is packed so tight i cant get good pictures of anything.

Just gimme the Sega games and I'll be happy. Nah... I wouldn't want that many games.

I too have seen this collection and am very impressed. I hope my collection looks like that one day.

Its crazy..  I do wonder about how many systems and games he has though (I know he says "I don't know" etc.) and about how much it all is worth...

were it not for the RFG collection tool I wouldn't know either.  I wish I had a basement with that much shelf space. though it looks like he ran out of space too with all the games on the floor.

That's who I was thinking of.  Their collection is pretty impressive, too.

I love the corridors of game shelves.  Kinda like a maze, even the dog looks lost.  One of the best collection's I've ever seen.  Makes my 6x10 room look tiny.  His son reminds me of mine.  Everytime I unlock the door no matter where he is in the house he comes running.  He just stands there and looks around and finally says ooga thats sega.  He's three but better at virtua racing than I am
