I hope you consider to image some of your rarer gems for SPS?

Good collection. You have a lot of duplicates, are you planning on keeping them?

Not many duplicates. These are mostly different versions, e.g. AGA and ECS, german and english and US edition and even italien/spanisch/french or on some swedish edition.
On the other hand there are sealed ones and then I mostly have an opened one, too :-)

NONE of these are budget releases (besides 3-5 titles).

Will keep these....for years hence I'm trying to be the first to make it "complete" ;-)

500-700 to go...+ additional box variations.

Now you just need a wife to complete the collection.

Will she be so understanding?

Have to say though very impressive and i am quite jealous also have a similar collection but i don't have custom made shelves for them their home is the floor.

I'm sure we have others that the other wants.

But seriously though, this collection is marvellous in any way!

Impressive!

Flippin heck, impressive stuff. Houses and space are just too restricted in the UK to have that kind of storage setup over here.

Well, for most people anyway. Can we have a meet at your place?

Beers on TheCyberDruid of course!

Very impressive!

Lots of duplicates (triplicates, quadruplicates) of the same titles. I think my boxed collection is only about 1/4, or a bit less than your number, but I only have a few duplicates, as I have tried to sell off duplicate copies when I have noticed that purchases of 4 to 10 games at a time have given me such duplicates of titles I already owned.

My goal is to one day be able to say that I have played every game in my collection at least once.

Edit: I guess I should have read the whole thread before I wrote about the duplicates.

Do you live in a mansion with a 40 meter long room or is that your whole apt and you sleep between the shelves of games?
