When the host guys were handling his $4000 Atari 2600 games I was cringing.

impressive i like how hes distanced his warehouse from his personal home-collection, not really a fan of just huge collections of eeeverything otherwise.

wish a had a gameshop with a dedicated keeper like that around here :?

HEY IT'S JOE SANTULLI!!!

Awesome dude, and I think he reserves all his crazy for collecting...it's pretty tough to get on his bad side and when he has time for the Forums there he never writes anything you can take offense to. So he's like the awesome uncle you never had ;)

Too bad most of the games on the table there are shit, though :lol:

Did you notice how during this video, of the current generation of game consoles neither Wii nor PS3 are mentioned or shown, only 360? Which is kind of strange, especially considering "Virtual Console". Hahaha.

I bet Santulli did at least mention them when listing which systems he owns.

PS.
MSN (The Microsoft Network).

You mean to showing you news the Microsoft way (TM)?

I bet those MSN stooges went to the "FOX School of Objective Reporting".

its funny that at the end of the video theres a bit where it says COLLECT THIS and stamps it. thing is the only chance you have of collecting one of the games is if you stumble on to one of the video life games as the other two there was 10 or less copies of it. Save the wales with two copies. no i wont be putting that in my collection anytime soon.

He picked out a US copy of BUG on the Saturn to show to the camera.

That's a good way to big yourself up.

More like along the ols saying "Fluff yourself up by showing off the impressive collection". The US version of Saturn Bug ain't worth jackshit.
