    I am nowhere as large of a gaming fan as you but I absolutely LOVE your room. There is something about how you organized everything, the color, the sheer volume that is overwhelming!

    I saw a Famicom, or Nintendo Family Computer as they were called waaay back, man it brings back a lot of good memories. Your collection qualifies as a musuem.

      This guy was called R.O.B. in the west (Famicom Robot in Japan). There are two games: Gyromite and Stack-up (in Japan called Gyro and Block). In the picture you can see the the R.O.B.s each playing one of these two games.

    I am not worthy.. are all those machines still playable? By God if they are, that is just mind blowing. I miss Famitsu now. Burger time, mappy, gradius and Mario!

    An amazing collection of Nintendo and video game goodies, i'm in awe! It's like a museum and it brought back a lot of old memories seeing those relics of the past.

    This is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen! I'd love to see more with more notes. I used to feel like I knew a lot about games, but your room left me stumped on a few things. I'm still pretty hazy on pre-NES consoles and early Sega consoles (and their many add-ons and variations).

    Lovely collection!

    I love that NES cushion. How much did you pay for some of these items like the clocks, love tester (LOL), and other toys?

      Thanks for the compliment!

      There is a relatively small collectors market (compared to - for instance - Game & Watch handhelds) and not too many items available. As a result, prices fluctuate quite a bit. Love tester goes for between 50 and 200 US$ on eBay (but you have to be patient for it to show up), or between 2000 and 10000 yen on Yahoo Japan. Clocks are sought after because of the TV characters presented (besides them being interesting for Nintendo collectors). Some of these are very rare, and hard to track down. Prices between 5000 and 50000 yen. Don't forget these items are from the sixties and seventies, so big variety in quality - from beat up to old stock.
      What you need most - besides money - is patience. Some of these toys are not necessarily expensive, but very rare; some you see for auction only once in three to four years. My collection took over 25 years to get where it is today!

      Close. It's the AV Family Computer. As you may know, the Family Computer (or Famicom) was released in the West as the NES, but the one you see here is the Japanese original. This is the 2nd generation of the Famicom, with different housing and an AV out (split audio/visual) instead of an RF connector - for better image/sound quality.
