Sept. 11 (UPI) -- In the realm of unique but unofficial holidays, Friday marks National Video Games Day -- not to be confused with National Video Game Day celebrated in July.
What's the difference? We don't know, but we're taking the opportunity to revisit some of the most recent video game-related Guinness World Records. Here's a look at some of the best, by the numbers.
444 consoles, 1 TV
In 2024, a Saudi man earned a Guinness World Record for hooking up the most video game consoles to a single television -- 444. The gamer, Ibrahim al-Nasser, said to manage the feat, he made use of more than 30 RCA switchers, more than a dozen HDMI switchers and a variety of other devices.
Among the consoles in use were a Magnavox Odyssey, an Xbox 360, a Nintendo Switch, a Wii U, a very rare Super A'Can and Nasser's favorite, "always, forever, Sega Genesis," he said.
