A Saudi Arabian man has entered the Guinness Book of World Records for the most video game consoles connected to a single TV. In the video above, Ibrahim Al-Nasser explains how he accomplished the feat through a series of switchers and impressive cable management (which he says utilizes every tool on the market). In all, 444 consoles, ranging from old Ataris, handheld consoles, and plug and play, to new additions like the Playstation 5, are able to automatically boot up on one TV screen. To keep everything organized and manage various connections and converters, Al-Nasser utilizes an expansive Excel spreadsheet.

“The TV ports are limited, and if I want to play, I either unplug the existing consoles or I’ll keep everything and add more switchers and of course more converters as well,” says Al-Nasser. “By adding more switchers, the idea came to my mind to connect all of the gaming consoles I have to the TV, then contact Guinness World Records because this project is unique.”
