Do you have a limit? Or does the buy/trade dynamic keep it from overflowing?

Personally speaking, I only purchase a game that I plan to play or plan to replay. That number will slowly but surely increase over time because there are moments when I feel the need to discard things that no longer really "fit" in with the rest of my stuff. Space isn't an issue because the entire bonus room is dedicated to gaming stuff. And, since my partner grew up building houses and such, he can build a shelf when needed.

For other folks, I don't think there's such a thing as too much. It's their money, so if they want to use it purchase games that will just collect dust, then I'm happy as long as they're happy.

Like Kash, I really only buy games that I'm going to play. So my collection never really grows at a fast pace for it to be unruly. Space is also a huge limiting factor for me.

My normal response is there is no such thing.

But recently, there is this guy who has been posting on facebook all of the stuff he has been buying on ebay (allegedly for steal prices) and every so often he will post pictures of certain things in his collection. Like how he owns 3 Misadventures of Tron Bonne and 12 copies of Symphony of the Night... for no reason. When asked why he does it, his response is that he can't turn away these awesome deals he gets for the games.

When you own multiple copies of a single game for absolutely no reason, that's too many games.

If you're buying enough games that you can't pay your bills.

I thought Too Many Games was just a convention in the Philly area
