A January 2015 leak by a Nintendo employee revealed that he had made 585 purchases on his account, in Nintendo video game products (including hardware, software, DLC, etc.) in a span of 4.5 years. As of 2010, for downloaded games and other PSN content alone, he has spent nearly $3,500, and the toll continues to rise. Many trolls conservatively estimate that Chris and his family have spent at least $30,000 on video games in his lifetime (including $1,000 from a 1994 shopping spree), roughly 3 times the amount of Chris's annual income – your tax dollars at work.
Xbox games and hardware are conspicuously missing from the list, but according to his eBay sales, he most likely owned one at some point. Luckily, his public PSN profile and other sources of information have made it possible to get a clearer picture of his ever-expanding game collection since then. The bulk of the list is only accurate to around the time of the Miyamoto Saga, in January 2009. God only knows why Chris felt it was a brilliant idea to send a Nintendo executive a list of games he has on competing platforms, or to send a list of imports to a game company that practically invented region lock-out to prevent games from being imported. except for Chris, apparently, who bought several of them).
Some games are obvious (Every Sonic game, and almost every Pokémon game), some are surprising ( Barbie Game Girl), some are bizarre ( Powerpuff Girls: Relish Rampage Pickled Edition), and some are outright embarrassing ( Pooh's Party Game: In Search of the Treasure, Learning with the PooYoos.).įor whatever reason, Chris's game inventory also includes demo discs, game peripherals (such as his PSEye), and other things that can't really be considered games (such as Game Boy Advance Video cartridges, a concept that failed to appeal to a majority of American consumers. The actual Excel file contains more information about each game that Chris listed himself for some reason, like the number of players for each game. This is a catalog of Chris's video game collection, based in large part on a spreadsheet he sent to Shigeru Miyamoto in order to show how dedicated he is to video games.
