From her blogs ‘about me’ section, it reads “My name is Heidi and I’ve always loved video games, but when I was a kid I never got any =(… This has probably been the cause of my current addiction and obsession with collecting everything I never had as a kid.” She has gone completely fanatical and scoured the internet for as much retro gaming memorabilia that she could get her hands on. Now she has put all of it in one room, added in a bunch of neon lights, and now is rubbing it in every nerd’s face on the internet.

#1 Heidi started her collection in 2002, in those 14 years since she has created a nostalgia gold mine for old gamers everywhere.
From her blogs ‘about me' section, it reads "My name is Heidi and I've always loved video games, but when I was a kid I never got any =( This has probably been the cause of my current addiction and obsession with collecting everything I never had as a kid." She has gone completely fanatical and scoured the internet for as much retro gaming memorabilia that she could get her hands on. Now she has put all of it in one room, added in a bunch of neon lights, and now is rubbing it in every nerd's face on the internet.
#2 All these old games require a lot of old TVs, she has packed the room with 20 televisions so there is much wire swapping going around when she wants to boot up something.

#3 Heidi now owns 140 gaming systems, didn’t even know that many actually existed.
#4 Nintendo neon lights all over her walls and PAC-Man rugs all over her floor.

#5 Everything is categorized and organized so finding anything specific is easy.

#6 No gaming room would be complete with having your own arcade machine.

#7 She now has over 4,600 games in total, that’s a huge backlog to go through if she wants to beat them all.

#8 Game and Watch, something so old and obscure most of you wouldn’t know of it unless you played the new Super Smash Brothers.

#9 She even put in the effort of getting retro furniture to put the bow on top.

#10 If she keeps up at this pace she is going to have to move it into a bigger room, she starting to run out of space.
She has come a long way but her collection isn't complete just yet. Can't wait to see what it looks like in the next five years.
