I started out on the Genesis, and the Game Gear. Had about 40 Genesis games, and 10 Game Gear games (and a big 4-lb rechargeable game gear battery pack).

Moved to the PS1 and the N64. Whooo boy. Probably only 10 n64 games (though hundreds of hours in Perfect Dark, easy). Ps1, though? At least a hundred. I had a complete dresser drawer full of them, in their little CD jewel cases. I'll err on that conservative estimate.

PS2/Gamecube! Cube I had... Probably another 10? PS2... Another dresser drawer full of them. But the boxes are twice the size, so probably 50 or so.

Cell phone! About 25 if you include snake, tetris, simon, those old flip phone games.

Game boy! All through the 3DS: 3 (GB), 2 (GBC), 15(GBA), 25 (DS+3DS combined). 45 total ish.

Arcade! Probably 5, 4 of which are DDR variants?

Now... PC.... Oh, PC.... 250 games on steam (rounding to nearest 25 to not dox). And I've played all of them for at least an hour, to ensure they work and don't need refunds. But Steam isn't the only launcher. Epic and Blizzard add about 15 more, though I've put dozens of hours, if not hundreds, into individual Use Map Settings games in Starcraft, War3, and SC2, I won't count those individually.

Then the games prior to when Steam took over the gaming monopoly. Hard to remember how many exactly, but I had a jewel-case library tower by my PC for a long time, about as tall as my torso. 25? And maybe 5 independent MMOs have eaten hundreds of hours of my life each?

So... With some very loose estimates because the numbers are so much...

575 games? Of course, many of the games have hundreds to thousands of hours on them.

EDIT: Chuck on another 100 or so if Newgrounds and Kongregate and the like piles of free Flash games count, too.

EDIT2: And about 25 visual novels? So 700 running total?

EDT3: And they just said "games", not "video games"... I've played a lot of card game variants, sports game variants, social game variants, etc. as well. I assumed "video games" by the context, but if it's just "games", that adds more, too. I don't phoo-phoo analogue games, board games are real games. Toss on another 100 or so for the analogue crowd.
