I'm glad I live in the 21th century where we can have big collections like this. If we lived 500 years ago, the only games we would have are jousting and fencing.
Back in the day I had no way to go about doing something like that, although these days if I wanted to I could certainly take a lesson from a video a made a couple of months ago! th-cam.com/video/S-REBS-bqbI/w-d-xo.html
You are correct! I remember the first time I opened the box and was fascinated by this book I had never seen before. Overall I really like my German copy of ST!
Vice: Project Doom is very underrated! I have it, but not in box. It actually just became available on the Nintendo Switch this month for those who have the online service! Thank you for the comment. :)
The problem with attempting to restore one of the holes is that with the original pieces missing, it wouldn't look too good to just patch them up with brown cardboard. I've thought about what to do before, and I think the solution is just to hope that some day I find better copies that aren't shredded. XD
Thank you! And while I have something that is related to NES boxes planned for next, I think having a look at my boxed SNES collection could be fun! :)
Welp...you're definitely a NES collector as well. :) I used to have around 400 CIB games but downsized because I wasn't happy with their condition. Now I'm slowly building back up. I keep the licensed and unlicensed games separate and yes they are all in box protectors as well. Sealed games? Hmmm, what are those? XD
Unfortunately it's getting tougher and tougher to find older boxed games and consoles in good condition. Personally, my main concern is just to collect the games themselves, but I'm always happy to pick up boxed copies as well if I get the chance! Thank you for watching and commenting. :)
@The Game display I know I talk alot about donkey kong country series alot, only because I'm a big fan. But whenever there is something intresting I just like to mention in case its something you want to do for a series. so donkey kong country 4 or "The fan-made project" started releasing more demos for their game about every month. I even played some of these levels and they are really cool. I wont spoil details but If you want to check it out I'd love a review on the levels and I hope everyone agrees.
Wow, it looks like the project is really coming along! Thank you for the heads up. I prefer not to play demos and will probably wait until it's complete before really diving too much into it, but thanks for reminding me about it! :)
@@TheGameDisplay Does ROM itself play in English though? I've discovered recently that some(?) Canadian copies have localized French ROMs, but I have no idea if there are any English ROMs that got released in Canada.
Hey Andrew I’m playing donkey Kong country 2 and am on world 5 on the 4 level parrot chute panic and the basic idea is to use the purple bird but I used Dixie’s flying ability and almost made it to the end. P.S I am a big fan
Thank you so much! raocow actually just played that level today! I really like the theme of that level. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! :)
Hi Andrew my friend you have an awesome NES collection keep up the awesome work it's been awhile since I saw you on TH-cam great job on the videos as always my friend I had fun watching your video I look forward to seeing new and exciting things from your videos take care my friend
Hello Jake! Thank you so much! I've been trying to make videos on a variety of different topics to keep things interesting. The world of retro video games is so vast and there's so much to talk about, so I'm happy when people are able to learn new things through my videos! :)
10:40 that game is called CrysTalis........ the sword is a letter T.... 33:09 that IS the correct encyclopedia, but it's not that rare it seems, there's currently 12 CIB copies of Carmen Sandiego on ebay WITH the encyclopedia included.
Thank you for watching and commenting! I always knew that there was a T in the title, but I never really realized I wasn't pronouncing it until now. So thanks for that! :P And that's interesting that the encyclopedia isn't too difficult to find these days! Back when I got my complete copy I don;t believe you could just go to ebay and get it.
I enjoy watching your videos, you always have some cool things to share! I think I first saw the pong machines on your channel, I didn’t even know they existed until I saw them on your channel. I’m going to have to try out Crystalis now, hope all is well!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting! I really appreciate that you found my channel through one of my older videos, and that you still continue to check out the new content that I produce! :D And Crystalis is definitely an NES hidden gem, so I hope that you enjoy it! Just don't let you save data get deleted. :)
Cheers Andrew. Good to see you again. This was a great vid. Good insight into the boxed collection. Been a sub for many years bud. Have a good one chap. ✌😃
never even thought about that in speedrunning you're right and also I have been a HUGE fan of yours for a while on a few different accounts. I have to say your new format is awesome and i'm so happy you aren't getting like "everything has to be super professional content" like a lot of YT because your humor and rants and personality is exactly why I first subbed keep it up and please stay true to yourself Andrew will always love your content.
Sorry about the delay in getting back to you! Your comment was marked as spam for some reason. Thank you so much for watching and for your very kind words! It really means a lot to me to hear those things, as I often wonder if I'm doing things on TH-cam right. :) And I'm happy that I'm not alone in thinking that about speedrunning games from different regions! You would think that the different regions would be separated somehow, although I guess for speedrunners it would be less catchy to say "I'm the world record holder for the NTSC-U version of Paper Mario" or something like that. Unfortunately the result of this is that people almost exclusively seem to speedrun the Japanese version of games due to shorter text boxes and higher likelihood of there being glitches which would have been fixed before the game was localized elsewhere. Although as someone who doesn't speedrun games, these are more just observations rather than things that bother me. So thank you so much again for your kindness and support! I really appreciate it! :D
I was born in the early 90s so I caught the end of the NES's life. When born, my family already owned an NES so I played it a ton growing up. It wouldn't be until I was almost 5 that I got an SNES, and by that time I had already mastered many of the NES games my parents owned including Mario 1-3, Mega Man 2, StarTropics, and 1943! Definitely check out the video where I play Mario 3 with my mom, as we both share a lot of stories about the NES's early days in there: th-cam.com/video/qGIFPnnPo7M/w-d-xo.html
Thank you! And I hope to make another one someday, as I'm gradually seeing that the need for a new one is increasing. I just want to make sure that if I make a new one, it's better than the old one! There's nothing worse than a sequel that can't even hold a candle to the original. So I'd rather take my time and think it through than just rush into it and make a video I'm not happy with. I know that I'm over thinking it considering it's just a room tour, but I hope that if I do get a new tour out there someday, it's something everyone will enjoy even more than the original! :)
Thanks for watching! The last time I looked at my boxed NES collection I did that, so I wanted to try something different this time. I feel like when I make videos where I'm holding the camera and moving around while pointing at different things, they always turn out messy. If you want a good look at exactly what's on the shelf though, check out the image I posted to my Twitter account as you can see just about every single game!
Why do you do this? Your wasting your time and money because you dont even PLAY half these things. Life is short dont worry about money and value ALL the time

What a great collection of games!
Thank you so much! :)
The Game Display no worries man keep up the awesome vids!
Andrews Holy Grail collection
I'm glad I live in the 21th century where we can have big collections like this. If we lived 500 years ago, the only games we would have are jousting and fencing.
My, how times have changed. Jousting and fencing were probably pretty fun though! Thank you for watching. :)
Awesome collection man.
Thank you so much! :)
Awesome collection and video. Can tell you are passionate about nes collecting, love to see others who share it !
Thank you very much! The NES is my favorite console by far. I love collecting for it and playing its games. Glad to see you feel the same as well! :)
To make sure you don't lose your data, you should use a save state device so you can double save your data. You can save to both the cart and device.
Back in the day I had no way to go about doing something like that, although these days if I wanted to I could certainly take a lesson from a video a made a couple of months ago!

Subbed! Your collection display looks amazing!
Thank you so much! For both the compliment and the sub. :)
That is awesome!
That's really kind of you! Thank you so much for watching! :)
The StarTropics manual is only in German but that copy also contains a translation booklet.
You are correct! I remember the first time I opened the box and was fascinated by this book I had never seen before. Overall I really like my German copy of ST!
A game that you should get for the NES which is a very underrated is called Vice: Project Doom not sure if you have that one.
Vice: Project Doom is very underrated! I have it, but not in box. It actually just became available on the Nintendo Switch this month for those who have the online service! Thank you for the comment. :)
Man this guy has what I want 😅
Thanks for sharing this video of your great NES collection. My 2 favorite NES games are Zelda and Crystalis.
Good to see cardboard that didn't end up in the landfill proudly displayed! Ever going to do a restoration project for any of the holes in your boxes?
The problem with attempting to restore one of the holes is that with the original pieces missing, it wouldn't look too good to just patch them up with brown cardboard. I've thought about what to do before, and I think the solution is just to hope that some day I find better copies that aren't shredded. XD
Someday I will complete my Pal-B loose NES collection. Already got 220 Pal-B NES games
I can watch videos like this all day long. Love this channel. Super Nintendo next? Thanks Andrew.
Thank you! And while I have something that is related to NES boxes planned for next, I think having a look at my boxed SNES collection could be fun! :)

This is a very important question. Is your copy of Kirby's Adventure in English or French?
Thanks for watching! My box has English and French on it.
@@TheGameDisplay Does ROM itself play in English though? I've discovered recently that some(?) Canadian copies have localized French ROMs, but I have no idea if there are any English ROMs that got released in Canada.
@@Pimpeaux All copies of Kirby's Adventure that I have seen in Canada were in English.
@@TheGameDisplay Okay, thanks for letting me know!

Epic collection! I’m jealous.😰
Thanks you! It took many years for it to get to this point.

Would have liked to see you run camera along the shelf to show them all while pointing out your ones of interest. Great video otherwise.

The one with the upc missing is probably a fake. Many fakes had logos where the upc should be
There's a company that makes clamshells like the genesis, looking at the prices in the "future" lol its my option
Why do you do this? Your wasting your time and money because you dont even PLAY half these things. Life is short dont worry about money and value ALL the time
