Man breaks world record after connecting 444 game consoles to a single TV GUINNESS WORLD RECORDSA man has set the Guinness World Record for the most game consoles hooked up to a single TV, with over 400 consoles linked to the same device. Ibrahim Al-Nasser from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, boasts a collection of hundreds of consoles, and 444 of them earned him the record for the most gaming consoles linked to one television. His collection spans from the Magnavox Odyssey to the Sega Mega Drive\/Genesis, Sega Dreamcast, Neo Geo AES, Sony PlayStation, Nintendo 64, and many others. He also has tons of accessories, including the N64DD, Famicom Disk System, 32X, Dreamcast Karaoke unit, and SNES Satellaview, all connected to their respective consoles. Ibrahim uses an Excel spreadsheet to determine which switcher to turn on for displaying a particular console on the TV. The spreadsheet helps him easily identify the correct switcher needed for each console. In an interview with Guinness World Record, he said: \u201cI have so many video game consoles. After a while, I noticed that I had a big stack of gaming consoles that I couldn\u2019t play. \u201cThe TV ports are limited and if I wanted to play I could either unplug the existing console or I could keep everything and add more switchers and more convertors. \u201cIt includes hundreds of video game consoles, all different to each other. All of the consoles require a special set up and cable management as well.\u201d Ibrahim revealed that his favorite console of all time is the Sega Genesis. However, connecting it with modern and even older consoles in a single, clean, and organized setup proved to be a challenging task. \u201cA very important thing, if you notice here, the cables are almost hidden,\u201d he said. \u201cI used all the tools available in the market in order to organize the cables. \u201cAlso, to have a set up that\u2019s not only to play, it\u2019s like a museum and that\u2019s why this set up and this record took so much time from me.\u201d In other world record news, streamer Norme has set a new Guinness World Record for the longest duration a human has gone without sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
