    Very nice collection, but I would be weary about claiming the title.

    As I've learned in life...there is someone out there who has just a little bit more...

    Not me, though. I just need to win the lotto for that to occur.

    If you are just counting systems, then there are quite a few people who have as many systems as you and more.

    Now if you are talking complete game sets for those systems, then you might have an argument.

    My question is why try to be the best if the most important thing is to play and enjoy the games?

    "One" of the biggest? Sure, it's fairly impressive. But "the" biggest? Not as such, not around here. There are a LOT of folks that frequent these forums that could grind your collection to dust. But, yes, yes, ees verr niiiice.

    I agree with the above. I'm a nobody, and I've got you beat on Genesis systems and VCS. And not to be too critical, but you list the Super GameBoy in its own slot? Really?

    Still, nice collection, and I like the way you have it ordered in your list.

    I just noticed that and the GBA GC add-on, but he is claiming:
    Counting systems, add-ons and converters

    So I guess my standard Saturn and modded Saturn count as two seperate instances? Also the VCS add-ons, Nintendo disk systems, and lots of items for the Intellivision count? I mean the competition just grows exponentially with the dedicated collectors in their own concentrations.

    Good setup either way, but pictures or it doesn't exist!

    just running down your collection, your missing a lot of systems that a lot of people would have on top of what you already have...if you count variations that is. You put 2 xbox systems just because one is modded? isn't that like buying 40 Super Nintendos and putting each one in their own catagory?

    but still...very awesome console collection. Just not what you claim it to be.

    I've got two nintendo 64's. One has a sticker on it and the other doesn't. Can I count it twice?

    Not even close. I have all of those (minus one or two) plus many many more and my collection (while considered large) isn't nearly as big as some others I know of. Not by a long shot. There are some private collectors out there who don't post on the boards who I hear have some giant collections.

    Aren't those systems just a requirement to join DP?
    Nice, but I don't see Gamewave or even Game.com on that list.

    It's a nice looking collection but as others have said it's no where near the biggest.

    Hopefully you'll hang around and check out what DP has to offer. You'll learn about systems you didn't even know existed.

    nice list of systems, but I hate to burst your bubble, but there are several that I know personally that have more systems than you posted. I have approximately 140 systems(89 boxed) and dont consider myself a contender for the most.

    Again, people on this forum are SERIOUS collectors who have been doing this for decades. I respect what you have, but I learned early on that to boast the biggest collection on this forum is a MISTAKE

    I also forgot, what about the arcade collectors? I know at least a few DP members have more dedicated cabs than 61.

    That only works if they come in different colors.
