If TC waited for sales, he would never have a complete collection.

At least you're getting good use from the collection then. What about Arcade games, you didn't say, do you buy all of those? I'm wondering if the collection is about having all the games, including therefore all the best games, or if it's only about having those you can put in a physical shelf and take a picture of?
I do think this collection is excessive, but to each their own. We all spend our disposable cash on things others would think is silly. The thing is, a video game collection like this is deflationary. If he ever tries to sell it piece by piece, most games will see a 90% decline and he'll only get back a fraction of what he spent. In 5-10 years time with new consoles out it's the equivalent of owning a DVD collection today, and who cares about that? And when you die, you can't take it with you. But, at least he's enjoying his gaming hobby and like I said, we probably all spend on things others have little or no interest in.
