Sweet collection yo! I dig the presentation! Yoku's Island Express is awesome! currently at 386 Switch games myself! Cool to see other large collections out there!

Thanks! I just collect the esrb standards, joy-cons and pro controllers. I'm somewhere around 450.  I'll occasionally pick up a CERO or PEGI release but I've grown hesitant as they eventually release stateside and I'm forced to double-dip.

You've got a sweet set-up yourself!

There are so many subjuects that have come up in the last few days that I want to comment on when I have time, but for now if anyone is going to buy anything from Play-Asia before the end of the year, have $5 on me!  I'm probably not going to use it.  Just reply if you used the coupon to let everyone know.

I looked over your list and it's pretty much as you said -  I think you're just missing a couple from last week, the 4 LABO games, and a couple of the oddballs like the 2nd release of Harvest Moon Light of Hope (complete edition) and the new Sonic Mania (without the plus).  There's a little bit of clusterf•ck with the release dates as not all the big chains have been consistent (like Remothered, Harvest Moon: Mad Dash, Wargroove, etc.) - probably will even out by the end of the year when the releases slow down.  

My list is by release date and follows very closely to the master list on the reddit Switch Collector group (with no pegi/asia releases).  General consensus there is to only add Limited Run games when they actually start shipping (and use the Ship date as the release date). 

oh, here's my switch stuff.

DEEEEEEEEEEUUUUMN son, looks epic! Love the layout and presentation, nothin' like just a wall of red standing out in the collection

You guys are truly crazy (which is awesome).  I think I might be at 100 or so and I can’t  even come close to playing them all.

Fresh Switch collection pic! At 386 right now. Going to need to move the PS3 games underneath before too long. I am at capacity here and already have some shit off to the side i can't fit. 

Very nice man! What are some of your favorite switch games? I'm always looking for more, since I know I'm missing some in this vast library

Very cool!! What is that dark blue controller on the far left? And the darker reddish brown one in the middle of the red and neon pink joycons?

Blue joy-cons are from the Japanese Dragon Quest XI S Console, the darker red ones are the "Mario" joy-cons released in Japan around the time of Super Mario Odyssey

Here is the most recent setup I've got. The only things not pictured are the Labo kits and a bunch of accessories. My Switch games kind of took over our DVD/Blu Ray area. I need to find better options for shelving soon. I don't like having stacks in front of stacks.

[D~Funk | 284]

@Fleck586 Damn Yo! Just Bursting with Switch games! So much awesome stuff! Would love those Astral Chain and Daemon X Machina CEs! Whats that big bikini anime splash game on the bottom right?

That's the Omega Labrynth Life CE. Japanese people crack me up. It's a garden sim/school sim/RPG where your character's boobs get bigger as they level up. It sounds bad but its actually a pretty good game. Lol!

Wow, that is an awesome collection! I'm glad to see I'm not the only one having issues displaying it. I had to resort to most of my collector editions being safely packed and stored in storage until I figure something out as my game room is tiny compared to most of everyone. Right now, reorganizing everything once again seeing what I can do.  I think I will just remove my 300 something PS2 games and using that for Switch since I am not actively going for a complete PS2 set and probably won't for a while.

[NZCollector | 107]

Just read through this thread, and wow. You guys have incredible collections! 

I'm not collecting Switch, instead just getting things one at a time to beat. Not sure how much it is in the States, but over here a game called Muddledash was on sale on the eShop. I'd highly recommend it. Easiest way to describe it is a racing party game, only you play as an octopus trying to get to the goal before the others. Great couch co-op and worth the $2.50 I got it for. 

[ap123 | 112]

I ordered the LE of Link’s Awakening from Game and had it shipped to family in the UK. Finally picking it up today and nicely surprised to find it came with a few extras. Notepad, poster and cleaning cloth. Thanks Game!

 

[Romiked2689 | 120]

Finally got an item sold at New York Nintendo store! The story is that the first 100 people got this master edition signed. So that’s why it’s got a double seal. Zero plans to open it so y’all gonna have to trust me it’s the real mccoy

That's awesome! Some day I wil own that Master Edition. So pissed. I had one in my cart from BB and waited 5 minutes to pay and they were sold out.

It's a real problem. I keep getting sucked into buying them because the extras are so cool. I have completely run out of room. I am going to redo a bunch of shelving this winter and reorganize. Might sell some stuff off that I don't care about to make room. @D-Funk, where did you get that skinny shelf in the corner with all of your 3DS games? I need at least two of those.

 

*edit* Shit. How do you tag people here again?

I think some people in this thread need to Switch things up...

/bad dad joke of the day

[D~Funk | 284]

@Fleck586 You can get them at Ikea (also online ikea). They are part of the Billy line up of shelves i think. They aren't as deep as a regular billy though. They do make like a double wide one or about half Billy size one as well. I have one of those in the living room/movie area where i did the same sorta corner thing. 

Here you go, found some links:

I've been eying that type of Billy setup with the corner shelf since '08 or so. Not for games, but for books. Neat to see someone actually do it.

 

[D~Funk | 284]

@SoleGoose They are pretty nice! @Quaze was the one who jumped on the Billy scene first and then he literally came down and set up my gameroom Billy's. I liked them so much i set up 5 1/2 more in the living room for movies and things. Nice to have so much shelf space!

Speaking of Billy shelves, you know if they make any in solid wood, or is that a similar but different named IKEA shelf? IKEA shelving is pretty fair, but if you're going to have any significant weight on a shelf for significant periods of time, you need solid wood, even it it's pine.

I'm not knocking the billy's cause I'll probably be dropping a fair chunk of change on them when I get a house with an office/game room, but I really hope I can at least pick up wood shelves to put on the ones that will be more load bearing.
