Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 4:10 PMFascinating. What drove this guy to collect it all in the first place?
Jimu Hsien

Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 4:16 PMI haven’t yet checked to see if I won the $25 Million Oz Lotto last night… but if I did, then I’m paying off my house, buying this, then buying a new house to store all this! :)

Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 4:20 PMIt would suck for him if he got that stuff out there and a storm suddently rolled in.
I’ve got several tubs of NES/SNES/64 games amongst other systems but nothing like that. Thats quite impressive, more so for someone who lives in Australia.

Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 4:41 PMMy first thought when I saw the photos “I wonder what he would have done if it started raining while all that stuff was outside”

Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 4:58 PMI always use it with a dose of irony, like I’m wearing a monocle or something.

Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 5:13 PMArr, multiples of consoles. Hoarding, not collecting.
Sarah Lamotte
Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 5:59 PMMeh, often the easiest way to collect is to buy console + games bundles on eBay, and it’s a pain to resell them because no-one’s really interested in the consoles by themselves.
Villainsoft
Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 5:15 PMI think I’ve got all those on a couple of DVDs
Theres collectors, and then theres hoarders.
