An impressive collection
Collectors are not uncommon in the video game community, but some stand out more than othersThis is particularly the case d’Ibrahim Al-Nasseran enthusiast from Saudi Arabia who not only an absolutely incredible collection of game consolesbut what is most importantly established a new world record by combining no less than 444 different consoles on the same TV, starting with the Magnavox Odysseythe first game console ever developed and ended with the PlayStation 5 Slim published in October 2023.
In his collection we find essential elements of the video game industry such as the Xbox360The Nintendo Switchthe different versions of the Game Boybut also the Megadrivealso known as SEGA Genesiswhich Ibrahim Al-Nasser particularly appreciates. We also find consoles that have flopped a bit, like the WiiUbut also very rare machines, such as the Super A’Cana kind of clone of the Nintendo only marketed in Taiwan, and the Neo Geo
An exceptional organization
This enthusiast’s collection is not limited to consoles, as can be seen on the wall dedicated to games and products derived from the license Metal Gear Solid on the video below, but it represents the majority of it and spans the entire piece presented during his interview. However, Ibrahim Al-Nasser is not only an outstanding collector, but also a talented organizer. All of its consoles are connected to more than 30 RCA switches and a good dozen HDMI switchand a very complete Excel document allows him to list the different connections to know which switch each console is connected to.
Over and beyond No cables to be seen in Ibrahim Al-Nasser’s video game sanctuarywhich is really impressive considering how many connections are required to make all the hardware functional. The result is truly incredible and resembles a real video game museum. In other words: It is a well-deserved world record – but one that could soon change. Even if 444 is a number that is as satisfying as it is grandiose, Ibrahim Al-Nasser could break his own Guinness record next yearif the rumors about the release of the Switch successor and the development of a portable Xbox console are to be believed!
