  • A good friend and I spend our spare time collecting old board games, specifically game show home games. This is a video of our collection. We frequently visit random thrift shops, Salvation Armys, Savers, and many antique malls and shops to find our games. Sometimes we resort to eBay for particularly obscure things. The collection is a culmination of years of hard work and dedication.
    Unlike most die-hard collectors, we only purchase games we enjoy playing, rather than buying just for rarity's sake. Even if we find a very old, rare game brand new, we will take apart all the parts, tear open the shrinkwrap, assemble it and actually play the game: games were meant to played with, not to be left as decoration pieces in a glass case.
    We are currently up to 143 games total, with new games being added weekly, with about 120 left that we are actively searching for! Of course there are many others we would pick up in passing.

    Awesome collection of game show board games.I did have a handful of some of the ones you got here,but never bothered to keep them.After a while,you know all the puzzles and answers,which means they're not as fun anymore.

    I collect them here and there whenever I'm curious about seeing something, but not too frequently.

    Nice game collection! You got me beat! Most of the games I found was @ thrift stores.
    That first pievce of music was for the ticket plug for Hollywood's Talking (CBS 1973 Geoff Edwards).

    I own one also. That is one game I wish Endless Games would re-release. That show is a cult classic, and a gem that is often overlooked by fans of Goodson-Todman game shows.

    Wow, a very impressive collection of board games. It looks as if they are from the 1960's to maybe now, 2011. You also have the room to keep them stack organize and in good room temperature I hope. I wonder if you bring your collection to the Antiques Roadshow what would the appraisers give for value? I have game called Waterworks, is a card game from Parker Brothers, 1972, which I found in a cousin's basement in 1984-84 or so and I still have it. I have never seen anyone else owning one?

    The best thing is you have focused your collection. I tend to pick up any board game if the price is right and looks interesting. Well, even the non-interesting looking games can be fun. It is what you make of it. How does the Pac Man game fit in :) never played that one.

    @halflip876, that's cool that you have several different versions of each show's home game; to tell the truth(Pardon the pun) i have a PS2 and i've been thinking of getting different versions of various sports games so it's cool that people do that with game show games as well.

    Very nice collection!
    This may be too vauge of a question... but do you know of a board game (that is supposed to be based on a game show of the possible mid 50's early 60's) that has a bridge that you fish off of and a stand up on the side of like shops or something along those lines? Supposed to have a lot of 3D elements to it with cut outs and such.
    My mom asked me recently to find the game but she remembered Seven Keys. I bought that for her but when she got it she said that was not it. I did not receive the vauge description listed above until after.
    Any thoughts or guesses? I read off to her all the gameshows of 50's and 60's and nothing rang a bell. I am wondering if it has nothing to do with a gameshow now.
