- Mike Matei visits a crazy Atari collection. This guy Matt has a huge Atari collection that spans the entire run of the system. He even has a ton of imports, beta cartridges, and oddities. The original Atari, Inc., founded in Sunnyvale, California in 1972 by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney, was a pioneer in arcade games, home video game consoles, and home computers. The company's products, such as Pong and the Atari 2600, helped define the electronic entertainment industry from the 1970s to the mid-1980s.

This is a cool idea. Show collections of other big unknown collectors
Gotta find em all...
Collectors are just organized hoarders
@@Ottophil sorry i dont speak broke
This is what Tips & Tricks Magazine was doing, starting in (I think) 2002. Joe Santulli of Digital Press was writing that classic gaming section, early on. The Nerd showed up in Joe's store in Clifton, New Jersey for that meet-up with the Nostalgia Critic.
the last gamer from australia!
"What is the difference between these two copys of Baseball?"
"Uhhh one of them says Basketball?"
*copies
same game, different colors
This was really cool, but I don’t think you have to worry about the time being too long. It seemed like that was a big concern of Mike. If anything, I could’ve watched another 20-40 minutes of this.
I would’ve liked to see the holy grail segment go on for longer. Please do more collections in the future!
Yes, this video could easily be one hour for me!
James is the same way in his videos and even the rental reviews they were time concerned. Never knew why they think people would turn away from a video being too long. Maybe if it went over an hour but most of the time they arent even close to that lol
Or a part 2
Agreed, maybe he didn't want to bother this guy too much. Matt could put out his own video too, it was great to see his collection and seemed like a cool dude. But it would be nice if they made some more videos together.
It would be a great idea if you take some time to play those games cause most of them are really rare gems
Takes out top gun from the third position and puts it back on top and upside down.
"We were inverted" I get it now.
Yes! And they let it stay that way! I felt physical pain from that and I don't even collect games!
@@hansolo9119 Don't worry about it. Librarians and collectors know, you let the person taking care of the collection to refile it.
I thought they would cut away and I could assume he fixed it, but they ended up cutting to another angle of it still upside down
@@ThePixelProfessor My OCD kicked in automatically.
I love the enthusiasm here. You can see it in their eyes. I collect stamps and can talk for hours about them. Nobody ever comes back. God my life sucks! Don't collect stamps.
Gotcha.
Won't start 👍
@John Jalas
I mean on the topic of age demographic, the collection of NES and Atari games is so amazing to me as a 14 year old that just started high school. I have my own collection, not big or super expensive (at least for these two consoles) but these are so cool to me. Older games like this are so much cooler to me than someone having a bunch of Xbox 1 or PS4 games. The age demographic for a majority may focus on the next gen but there is still people loving the older ones forever.
A little brazilian trivia for you: the "CCE" company, at the time, had a bad reputation on its products. A common joke was to tell that "CCE" meant "Comecei Comprando Errado", which roughly translates to "I started buying wrong stuff".
Or even "Caixa de Componentes Estragados", "box of damaged goods"
so Brazilian LJN
@@kevinoconnor4582 LJN of hardware. Loved It hahahhahahaha
That’s hilarious. I speak Spanish, but Portuguese is similar enough I can get the meaning.
Aqui era "conserta, conserta, estraga".
Probably the biggest 2600 collection i've ever seen. Definitely museum material. Thanks for showing this!
Mike, you asked about a brazilian collector of atari, a famous one is Antonio Borba. He have a huge collection.
Lais P. Konigerente many of these are from his collection 😎
Fuchs is German for fox, and the title of the game "Fuchs & Schweinchen Schlau" means "Fox And Practical Pig" (from the 3 little pigs). As you guessed I'm from Germany. ;) I don't have a German Atari collection, but a complete German Intellivision collection (amongst others).
What does the fuch say?
Fox and Pig... sounds like Pooyan.
I would translate "Schweinchen Schlau" more like "Smart piggy" than "practical piggy"
@@NBAGreatestGamesonClassicCourt The English name is Practical Pig.
@@IntyMichael I am open for corrections because i am not a native speaker but the dictionary sais practical=experienced, useful.
Schlau=clever, smart
I'm 48 years old. My 10 year old self was salivating watching this video Lol.
I love this series idea. If you want to venture out to NYC, I collect mass produced items where the designer snuck hidden messages in the artwork. Its not games, but definitely has nostalgia value.
That got me really intrigued. I see you make your own content, man, show us something!
so that's the most niche collection i've ever heard of and i am intrigued. you have a website or fb page or some such?
@@pjm3005 I have a playlist called Cabinet of Curiosities. its on all sorts of things I collect, but there's a few on the items with hidden messages.
Ok, you got my attention
@@WeirdExplorer umm, thanks for the heads up! watching the playlist now. the weir food videos seem interesting too.
I'm sensing a new Cinemassacre series!
I hope so!
This didn't age well
It's actually comforting to know that there's others out there that cherish the memories that only Atari can bring.
if this guy does not listen to brutal death metal i will be dissapointed
🤘😭🖖
Look at him.
100% guaranteed he does.
He looks like the lead singer of a brutal death metal band
He listens to bands from Jersey exclusively
Would be blown away if he listens to Kenny G
Brazillian here. I grew up with an Atari clone called Dactari lol
Hats off man, such a cool collection!
I collect vinyl, and I agree with not letting it rot on the shelf. Play ur media people!!
Who claimed it wasn’t played
Agree X 1,000,000!
Clandestine Council it doesn’t matter. If someone sees games on a shelf they assume they aren’t getting played? There’s always one in the bunch haha
Hellyeah!
This guy's collection will be in a museum someday, it's so satisfying and large.
That's what she said
BROTRRer I knew this was coming
@@BROTRRer i dont get it, can you explain? Thank you
@@TheJulioGulio Are you a kid?
Thats what my dad said
Hey Mike I have a collection of dust on my Nintendo Switch that you might want to cover. We should compare to see who's Switch has more dust.
I set mine up for a few remote episodes of J&MM. So yours probably has more dust.
Game sack is always on in my house. shouts out to joe
Thinking of buying a Switch for a long time actually. It's the only console I would consider. I'm definitely master race through and through rofl
Whoa, joe is here!
JOE
10:37 Nooooooooooooo... anyone else triggered? this video became out-of-order-upside-down-top-gun all over it
10:51 it is still there
13:04 That is it. I'm done
I actually paused it when i seen that and went through comments because I was like no way I’m the only one that noticed
@@EverythingGeek 🤝 same here
OCD kicking in...
"The Donald Duck game with the giant scorpion monster"
Ironically, there is a giant scorpion monster at the intro sequence for the DuckTales reboot.
I love video game collections. It’s like revisiting a time period that you never lived in.
there's definitely Nostalgia that comes with having retro games, that's a lot of the appeal to retro gaming and collecting.
Or in my case, revisiting a time period that I DID live in.
Holy crap, this is nuts. I don't even think most popular collectors actually have this much games!
You dont watch that many videos.
I do... on Steam, lol
Hells Angels Death Squad Member at Night.
Atari Collector by day.
Hahahaha
The german game titles are nuts.
"Tom's egghunt", "Snail vs Squirrel" or "Fox (Fuchs) and smart piggy".
Grüße an den Nerd!
Does this means that "Fred Fuchs" means "Fred Fox"?
@@TankEngine75 yes
Exactly
@@TankEngine75 correct. Fuchs German Word for Fox.
@@Morris1581 nice
that brazilian supercharger was made by a company that stills exists here in my city. "Splice". they do all sorts of telecon related things and for a time they made a few Atari clones and peripherals. my uncle worked there and brought all kinds of Atari stuff to my cousin. we played with this COMP-K7 for years. he had pretty much the whole Atari collection on audio tapes. I thought I would never see this stuff again. thank you for that.
As a brazilian, i was surprised with so many BR things in his collection
we brazillians have a lot of old games that still appears around the world because some of the consoles were huge and that means mores games, you can still find Sega games in portuguese
I wonder if he has Chapolin vs Drácula in there somewhere (still haven't watched the whole video, let's see)
O cara gosta mesmo tem itens dos br que nem aqui temos ou nunca vi
@@lichewitz8905 no I don’t!!! Brazilian games are so fun to collect!!! There is no end haha
yes,,, im german,, and yes,.. i have a collection like this,, and yes,, come over... and fyi Fuchs means Fox
For Fuchs sake man
Du musst davon selbst ein Video machen, sollte Mike Dich wirklich besuchen.
For FOX 🦊 sake man
Bongomaster It goes both ways. Germans laugh at English words like “fix”, because it sounds just like their f-word.
@@luciolalazilia2189 Sternenfuchs. No space. Compound words für den Gewinn!
I really enjoyed this and I’m not a collector at all! I love how the owner is so Alpha and has this geeky side to him! Really interesting! More please :)
I was keeping an eye out on the shelves for my favorite Atari game of the rare bunch: Subterranea. And yes... he has it.
"I am Dactar" in a 60's robot voice made me laugh out loud
I would watch more of this. Also some cart hunting at swap meets etc would be cool too.
Rescue on fractalus..... the game that scared me as a child
10:48 the way he put that game back really bugged me
Imagine the disappointment of your 8-year-old self when your mom gets you the wrong-colored Baseball game with the wrong number on the side of the box.
"Mooom! I TOLD you I need 3456! I hate you!!!"
Splitting these into 2 parts, or having an extended version would be cool possibly. Great idea regardless!
really a 30 min video could be made on one game, or a series of games like, Brazilian games, or German games, or unreleased games. in fact the owner could just hire a team to make a video series a rack in the profits probably
Atari has the most beautiful art work on their covers.
Yep...Among my favorite box art.
I agree. It’s just like the movie posters that were drawn and painted by hand. The 90s were basically the last decade where companies used beautiful artwork. Now everyone uses generic images with everything.
Cliff Spohn's work is my favorite.
Yes but thats where the positives about atari stop lol
Tanin'iver I hear what you’re saying. It’s difficult to play Atari games now when the current gaming consoles have such amazing graphics! My experience with Atari was after it was obsolete during the 8 Bit Nintendo days. My cousin gave me his Atari as a hand me down. I still have it but I almost never really play it unless one of my buddies asks to.
I could watch Mike interview collectors bi weekly( any kinds of nerdy collectors cinemassacre is interested in) or however frequent they could find them. I love the Stuff you guys put out and look forward to it every week!
did that guy start sweating because you put the game upside down?
Nice work man! I'm not into Atari but I respect and appreciate a serious collector.
Dope ass Collection. Mike was in heaven I'm sure. Same as I woulda been. Atari is Finally getting it's Due Respect after Soo many years. I'm Proud to see such an amazing Collection
Nice to see Matt's collection getting more attention. I was fortunate enough to do a video on his collection a while ago! He is a cool guy!
Thanks buddy!!!!
I'm sure someone else here will have said this but "IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM"
thank you, good day!
One of my favorite episodes. Great work. Thank you.
Now just need to wait until you and James can go to Australia to the biggest video game collection.
Let the guest talk more, let him share some of his stories.
He can do a second video with this guy even if its for the other channels and not the main one.
I am a huge fan of Atari, and I just started collecting Atari games, I just hope in the future my collection gets bigger
Do more of these Mike. Love seeing these collections.
The Brazil-Argentina rival spilled over to even Atari games, won’t even use the same PAL ha!
Pal-M and Pal-N still give me the shills, I can't figure out how to play some dreamcast games since my console is pal-m!
This is a great idea. It reminds me of the time you guys showed off that awesome VHS store. These little expose's on other peoples personal collections is quite fascinating. It also gets some new personalities on the show which freshens things up a bit. Keep up the great content guys, one of the best channels on youtube.
The Wii music confused the f**k outta me, i had just come from another Mii Channel video to this one, lol.
10:45 Oh if someone did that to my collection putting it back upside down...... 😒🤨🤣
And out of alphabetical order.
The one Atari title you mentioned in this video "E.T. Go Come" sounds like it should be in the Atari porn series.
Beautiful collection! The most complete VCS/2600 collection I've ever seen, especially with import/foreign stuff. I saw he had a small stack of SuperVision & SpaceVision games - my favorites!
Game Preservation is so important. One day these games are either not going to exist and just stop working. Gone forever. Really sad to think about.
Digital games were and will never be the same as the physical copies. It felt like you didn't really owned them. Ps2 era is the last best console. Everything after is going down hill
The nature of time is that nothing lasts forever, not just video games. This too shall pass.
@@laos85 All video games that use a cpu of any kind are 'digital games', not just downloaded ones. It's a bad term. These cartridges aren't somehow analog games.
I feel like if this guy made content he would be like a more chill and less content starved MJR
Wow. What a great collection.
Looks like dude would have a pretty damn good collection of 1st press/1st release 80's/90's thrash/black/death metal records. Some of that stuff we consider canon/genre defining now days really didn't sell all that well back then.
This video needs 1 million views
That's a really fascinating collection and the owner is a really chill guy. I'd definitely would love to see more of his stuff some other day.
Respect to the guy and his dedication
Thank you!!
I'm brazilian. Atari was a huge thing here. I know more than 10 companies that made the Atari console knockoffs. As for the games, probably more than 30 different companies.
Hey Mike, if you happen to be in Brazil one day (I kind of doubt it) come and take a look at my collection. It's not as big as this one but I believe it's one of the largest in the state I live.
Really enjoyed this definitely wanna see some more videos like this. You should go see John Hancock's collection.
From Argentina here. The one that Mike though was a beer box is also an atari clone made here. They also made cartridges under the same brand (artkaris)
I like the part were you talked about bootlegs. Here most collectors do collect those because first: Nostalgia, since they were part of our childhood and second: because of availability and price (they are usually cheaper than official carts)
The old at atari commercials are weird.
@18:50 did he just say.. laughing out loud.. out loud?.. ive never seent it unironically lol
0:02 Atari Logo
yes
E
I love seeing people's collections and all the different and weird stuff they have. Mike please do this again if you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed watching it
This dude... just damn. It's great when someone who looks like a rock enthusiast ALSO has a huge Atari collection. 😅
Please do more of this man this was amazing
Have you seen Last Gamer's collection? Australian youtuber that has an amazing collection
He has the most epic collection of all game systems too!
He has an amazing collection but lacks an amazing personality. I personally don't like the secrecy he maintains. I mean what kinda work does he do? It's a seeeeeccccrreeeeettttt
He has this super long video series called story mode about his 'amazing' life 🙄 but only a handful of videos on his actually amazing collection.
He doesn't have an atari collection close to matts!
Never knew there was a Music Machine Atari game. We had that record as kids.
Kaboom is a classic. Of course, it's hard to praise Kaboom without mentioning Beat em and Eat em, lol
1:40 That's the game and accessory where I learned the 2600 joystick could have had two additional buttons via the unused paddle pins. My take on that design would have been A, B, and Start/Pause.
If it’s licensed it’s not a bootleg
I think my favorite thing about the Atari were the various cartridge shapes and colors.
14:00 Reminded me of Mike as the Joker yelling, “RETURN, REVENGE, RETURN, REVENGE!”
The covers for those old games were amazing.
The ColecoVision controller is functional with Omega Race. It's not practical, but it does work.
Then that means the Colecovision Super Action Controller should also work. Well, 2 of the buttons that is. That might be more comfortable than the stock Colecovision controllers.
@@TheJeremyHolloway By George, I think you're on to something!
What an amazing collection - love the 2600 and they have some of the box art you could ever wish to see.
🙋🏻♂️
Remember when Nintendo recreated Smash-Bros in Live Action?
As a Brazilian myself, I feel very honored by the amount of Brazilian Atari related things you showed on this video
James should do an AVGN episode on the MDickie games
Please do a 2nd Video of Matt Collection !!! this one was great !!!!
I would have been okay with video being two hours btw
as a brazilian SNES collector I can tell you we have so much strange games you've never heard of. Sonic 4 (a bootleg version of Speedy Gonzales) comes to mind. Like you said on the video, we grew up on these weird games we never knew were homebrews or only released here. Great video, keep up the good work
He’s like MetalJesus except he’s actually metal!
Extremely impressive collection. I am on board with the idea of making this a series too, would love to see more impressive collections. :D
The guy often forgot history on his own stuff. His collection is so large he's probably forgotten where he got a lot of it.
I want to see the unedited version. I would literally watch hours of this dude talking about his collection.
The background mii music 10/10
Thank you so much I heard it and I could not fucking remember for the life of my where I heard it before I was going crazy
To the 100+ people who disliked the video....” you obviously didn’t get the Atari as a kid for Xmas...you got the socks and jocks deal..and still hold a grudge all theses years later...”back then one button ruled them all....awesome collection...
I live in Argentina,i had one of those
dang i love that t-shirt 'too many games' i'd love to have one too
this is what the internet is about
"Collector" has lost its meaning, guys like this are true collectors. They pursue one thing to completion. You could not care about atari games and think a room like this is worth some respect.
Thanks!! 😊😊
Wow that is a huge collection!
Those Canadian import games are actually from Zellars. Which was a department store. Basically, copies of Imagic and Activision games with the Copyrights edited out. Lazer Volley is actually Lazer Gates by Imagic. Same game but copyrights hex edited out.
His cases are pristine. Such a cool collection
