  • I am sorely lacking in Atari. I would’ve had one if my grandparents hadn’t thrown out my dad’s 2600 when they were cleaning out their attic.

    I’m only a little older than Saturn and PlayStation (based on their Japanese release dates). I get what you mean though. It’s definitely weird when you realize that there are adults that have never experienced the things that were integral aspects of your own childhood. I have cousins who’ve never used a VCR, meanwhile I still have the one our grandfather bought me in the late 90s.



  • I have a large collection of game consoles, with several being older than myself. Just to list the ones that are at least 20 years old:

    • NES
    • PC Engine (Core Grafx II)
    • Game Boy
    • Genesis (Model 2) + Sega CD (Model 2)
    • SNES
    • Game Gear
    • Saturn (Model 2)
    • PlayStation
    • Nintendo 64
    • Game Boy Pocket
    • Game Boy Color
    • Dreamcast
    • WonderSwan Color
    • PlayStation 2
    • Game Boy Advance
    • GameCube
    • Xbox

    I also have some old A/V stuff, like a small collection of CD Walkmans and most of the pieces in my stereo system (the turntable is new, but everything else is pretty old). I buy a lot of old electronics from thrift stores because I really just love playing with them.
