Most amazing Famicom collection i have ever seen!

[BonBon]

Stealthlurker's collection would have to be the most amazing I've seen. Pure refined taste, you can look at his collection and really go "that is a man who knows his games". I'm also very fond of L___E___T's, Jay-Ray's, and Pikkon's choice of games, just going on what I've seen them post of their collections.

I dunno, collections where you can really get a sense of someone's taste in games are what impress me more than anything.

Thank you nightstar I really appreciate the recognition! I've worked very hard to collect the best of the best for famicom we definitely share the same taste in games. I also want to add that I really always respected your dedication to having a mastery of the games you love. I also try to master all my favorite games. It's so funny when I tell people I collect retro video games they sometimes ask me "do you actually play them or just collect them." and I say of course I play them why do you think I buy them. Then it occurred to me that wow there are people that collect these just to look at them that's no fun.

That is the first I`ve seen of that collection and I agree, it is amazing.  The two functioning Sharp Famicom TVs next to each other really got to me, those are hard to find.  1044 copies of SMB is neat, but not as impressive as the other stuff (I would be impressed to see him do something unique with them rather than just stacking them in a pile).

I`m often conflicted about how to feel about a collection like that.  Its obviously not something most of us can aspire to since there is easily several hundred thousand dollars (perhaps millions) worth of stuff in there.  

So I tend to ask whether it is just a pretentious display of wealth or an enthusiastic display of someone who loves games and wants to be around this stuff (and who just happens to be wealthy).  

I think this falls into the latter.  Actually, looking at those pictures it is hard to come to any other conclusion - this is a collection that must have been painstakingly put together over many years.  Even with a lot of money some of that stuff is hard to find and would take patience and effort to track down.

Tip of the hat to the guy, I am impressed!

I agree, just imaging waking up in that room, a rare sight such a collection.

The famicom is strong in Thailand.
