OBSESSION - You could have invested in therapy instead, but then what would you do on Friday night?

Thefallenheroes only has one problem… not enough TV’s to plug these in to.

@ Happy

He's only showing the "family trees" for the Atari, Nintendo, and Sega lines.

And since this is an old pic, the Wii wouldn't be there either.

I'm curious about something, why is it that if someone sees a few (or in this case, a lot) video game systems they are immediatly assumed to be a virgin?

Sounds kinda retarded to me, just because someone has a collection doesn't mean he/she can't date or anything.

Well, for one this picture has to be at least a few years old. If this guy was showing the progression of these systems, then he'd have a Wii as well. That is, if he was truly the collector and gaming type. Granted though, this picture was probably taken before the stupid Wii even came out.

Nonetheless, that really has nothing to do with the fact that he actually does have a few repeaters in that little lineup of his, which leads me to think that he's just some collector and like a few have said, haven't played more than 1/2 of the games.

Anyways, neat picture, yet I question it's legitimacy.

Please tell me this is just someone who collected all these consoles in an attempt to make a funny picture. Please. Because i find it hard to believe that someone would actually own all these. My guess it's a collector or something, and only played on like 1/4 of all of those consoles...

@T

I've seen the original site this was from. The guy has a Wii. It's with his 360 and PS2/3 in his entertainment console. Those you see there are just for display. He rarely, if ever, plays any of those (except the Dreamcast on certain occasions).

Also, I can name a few that I bet you guys are clueless about.

- Next to the Atari 5200 are two Atari 2600 Jr.'s, both Model A and Model B. You can also see an Atari Jaguar and Lynx.

- Some of the lesser-known Sega systems shown are the Game Gear, Master System (both US and Japanese variants), Genesis Mini (a smaller Genesis), and Saturn. He also has both a model 1 US Genesis (the one with the Sega CD under it) and a model 1 UK Mega Drive (with no peripherals)

- To the left of the NES is a Famicom, complete with the Disk System peripheral (in a box behind it)

- Just barely visible on the far right there is an NEC Turbografix16.

Epic picture, I'd love to have a collection like.

on another note: i find it odd that everyone immediately sets out to insult the owner of all these. But if say it was a huge collection of say, foreign currency, it wouldn't be such a big deal. OMG VIDEO GAMES = PALE VIRGIN LOSER ANTI-SOCIAL MAN.
