How many games do you have in your memory and can you remember?

Is it possible for a person to remember all the chess games he has had since he started playing?
@sm2019 Amateurs usually don't; some of the higher rated ones remember their personal best games, but that's it. Top GMs and world champions can remember hundreds to thousands of games, but I doubt they remember all of them.
I do remember a few memorable ones. I outplayed some opponents in the Najdorf and a few in the Italian. These I remember cause about 65% of the game was just theory.
