3 NES Systems. All Front Loaders. All iffy to get working.
14 + controllers. I have at least 8 standard NES controllers, 2 NES Advantage controllers, A few of those Turbo Joystick controllers, an Orange and a Grey Lightgun, a pair of wireless controllers, and probably a few more.
3 Unique carts with SMB1 on them. I have SMB1, SMB1/DH, and SMB1/DH/WCTM. I actually have a few copies of SMB1/DH and 2 copies of SMB1/DH/WCTM.

4 Front loaders, 1 top
Controllers in the 20++ range (different varieties
Zappers around 8
This will piss off many of you >:( , but before I found out about the new pins at MCM, I was throwing out the NES decks if they didn't work. I would say I trashed about 12 units and around 20 mario/duck hunts. I did keep all the controllers/RFs and adaptors.

3 systems (includes game axe)
around 20 controllers or so I think...I haven't counted for awhile. All different types, zappers, pistols, regular controllers, epyx controller, well tons of stuff.
Carts with SMB. Maybe 10 or so. Will have to check on this one.

Hmmmmm....
3 Front loaders (only one works well tho)
1 top loader
1 Famicom
1 pirate HK Famicom (not working)
10 regular controllers
1 NES MAX
1 dogbone
1 semi-complete ROB (sans top)
3 zappers
2 SMB/DH
Sad thing is, I don't really even collect NES stuff! :) That's just stuff I've gotten for free over the years (cept for the toploader...that was $20). Other than the toploader, all the other NES hardware I have was free. And all the games I ever got were $5 or less, most around $1-2 each, even the spendy ones.

probably 8 systems, one has never been used, maybe 60 controllers about 20-30 different kinds, i got 3 or 4 different zappers, my controller box is too big of a mess to really figure all this out for sure.

There's something amusing about reading these numbers :D
# of systems: 2 toasters.
# of controllers: 4 original, 1 other (that one with the sliding joypad deal. Might be NES Max?).
# SMB carts: 2 (one with Duck Hunt, one with nothing else on it).

This is a question where definite answers could take hours. Lets take a guess:
Systems: 3 Toasters, 1 Toploader
Controllers: 3 Originals, 2 Dogbones, 2 Powerpads, 1 Laserscope, 3 ROBs (2 Complete and 1 Semicomplete), UForce, 2 Power Gloves (One Child, One Adult), and about 30 other random third party ones. I had a good 25+ extra controllers, but I sold them all to make room.
SMB Carts: 1 SMB, 4 SMB/DH/WCTM, and about 25 SMB/DH.

1 Frontloading system: Works perfectly now that I've replaced the cartridge port with a new one from MCM electronics ($5.99 plus S/H)
4 original controll pads
1 NES MAX pad
2 third party controll pads: look a lot like the originals only with turbo buttons.
3 lightguns
1 NES Advantage joystick: The A and B buttons often get stuck down when I'm using it.. sooo annoying and I can't dismantle the thing far enough to be able to try cleaning the buttons.
1 Quick Shot Joystick
1 Super Mario Bros. cartridge
4 SMB/Duck Hunt cartridges

11 NES decks (all front loader), of all only 3 works well. The rest needs new connector or other works.
33 NES controllers but I'm not sure how to count the Dominator as it can be used in 1p, 2p, and both players at once.
18 NES carts with SMB on it. (most are SMB/DH)

Well, these are estimates...
2 Top Loaders (one in box)
40+ Toaster style Nintendo systems (4 or 5 in box)
Literally hundreds of controllers
I would say over 30 Mario/Duck Hunt at least
Zapper Guns (wired and wireless)
Power pads
U force's
They are all in storage, I will count them up this weekend

Right now I have five toaster oven style Nintendo's, and three top-loader Nintendo's. Of the five toaster oven's one is CIB with Mario pack-in; one is CIB the sports edition I believe, it came with the wireless multi-player adapter, and Super Strike Vball/Soccer game. Of the three top-loader Nintendos, one is CIB.

I'm not trying to doubht you 8bitnintendogames, but I'm curious as to why you would keep 40 Nintendo's and 100's of controller especially if you are keeping them in storage? Why dont you sell them? You could make a nice chunk of change selling 40 Nintendo's.
