This is going to be my final comment on the matter of this little sidetracking we've gotten ourselves into.
[quote name='gamerdouche']Wow, if you took and added together all the game libraries in this thread, and then doubled it, you'd
almost have as many games as are in my library... LOL
BTW, I have every Virtual Boy game ever made, complete and mint.

That's your first post in this thread; we'll come back to it in a moment.
[quote name='gamerdouche']I never expected to be asked to 'prove' anything; I thought I was just participating in a friendly discussion about CAG game libraries. I'm disappointed that the world has come to the point where you guys just automatically call 'bullshit' on somebody for no justified reason. I just don't like being called a liar just because I happen to find cameras unnecessary. I would give you guys the benefit of the doubt unless you were claiming something ridiculously outlandish; so when I say "I own several thousand games" in a thread where the whole purpose is to tout your collection, the skepticism and hostility caught me by surprise.[/QUOTE]
The world hasn't come to anything new, so please get on down from your high horse while playing the world's smallest violin. The people in this thread didn't automatically call 'bullshit' on you for no justified reason. You've provided plenty of justification with your arrogance.
You thought you were participating in a friendly discussion about CAG game libraries, yet you come into said discussion treating it as some sort of pissing contest. Your first comment in this thread is both a
truly pathetic attempt at bragging, backed by absolutely NOTHING, while in the same breath attempting to belittle everyone else in the thread. "BWAH,
MY collection is bigger than everyone else's in this thread so far COMBINED...and NO YOU CAN'T SEE IT." In roughly 20 years of history of the INTARWEBZ, you should know the golden rule -
PICS OR GET THE 
OUT - especially when you're making sorry ass attempts at unfounded bragging. It's trolling plain and simple.
If you had posted pics along with those comments in the first place, everyone would have let it go (while thinking of you as an asshole). Now, especially after the followup comments, everyone thinks of you not only as an asshole, but an asshole that's full of shit.
The difference with everyone else is, other people are posting pics and talking about their HUGE collections without having to resort to making snide and snarky comments along the lines of "oh what a joke - I have more than everything posted/listed/pic'd COMBINED". It's been in fun and truly about sharing and pride in collections without trying to tear anyone else down. Then you come in trying to shit on the thread and everyone in it? Bitch please. Don't play the "woe is me" innocent victim here after your snide remarks. Edited, at that.

No, I don't have any friends. I would rather play video games. I have never felt any emotional attachment to other people, and that includes family. However, even though I don't care about them, they insist on coming from out of town to visit me once in awhile, which I normally find highly annoying, but next time they come I'll borrow a camera.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, with the attitude and arrogance you've exhibited, that's no surprise.
[quote name='gamerdouche']
Very nice. You have a larger library than I do. My goal was never to have a large collection, I sell games that I'm finished with if I'm not interested in playing them again. My backlog just got ahead of me, that's how my game library formed, and that's why I call it a library and not a collection.
My original comment was not directed at anyone, I was simply marveling to myself that I had a lot more games than any of the other posts that I had clicked on, and I was surprised because I expected there would have been a lot more CAGs with very large collections like yours.

Your goal was to try to turn this into a pissing contest, plain and simple. Appears as though someone's got a "small" "bit" of a Napolean complex. It must be difficult going through life always trying to compensate.
Many people on here have thousands of games. I've got a few thousand at least. Whoop dee
ing doo. I certainly don't have the greatest collection, the largest collection, a definitive collection, or a comprehensive collection of just about anything, but unlike you I'm not posting on here to try to put myself above others. I enjoy my collection as well as the pics of others' collections - some are bigger and some are smaller. For most here on CAG it's about sharing deals, scores, and comeraderie. There are plenty of things I hope to add to my collection, just as I hope my input on CAG adds something positive here.

Oh, and the Virtual Boy is
ing awesome. If you don't like it, you probably never played a real one. That's the exact reason why it bombed, they couldn't get people to try it, but once you actually tried it, you bought one. It took me a long time to assemble them, and I'm very proud of having all 14 North American VB games that were ever published, all in mint/complete condition, most of them purchased brand new/sealed, including Waterworld, Jack Bros, and 3D Tetris. I also have a few rare games for other systems that I'm proud of, such as the recalled Tengen Tetris for NES complete in box.[/QUOTE]
Here, I'll hook you up with some pics of complete/mint Virtual Boy games from my collection. We can just pretend their yours. The only one I'm missing is Waterworld, the rest are complete/mint although IIRC, I only have pics of 8 or 9 of them, since the pics came from the guy I bought the collection from, he didn't take pics of everything but had 13 of the 14 US release games complete/mint...except for the Tennis game I think, which came with the system.
