Old School Gamers - What Pre-2000 Consoles do you Own?

Just wondering how many of you guys still fire up the old Coleco Telstar, or maybe you have a dusty old Odyssey sitting your closet waiting to be turned on for the first time in 30 years.

I have been playing all my consoles for the past +-10 years everyday, generally one console a day, and try to play at least 3 different games that day to make sure they are all still in great working order.

I own just about every console pre-2000 with the exception of the Sega SG-1000 which is a Japanese console of the Master System.

My favorite console though would definitely have to be the Sega Saturn though.

Where I live, it's easy to find good old consoles like these at yard sales, they usually don't have a clue what the price is so they just sell an entire console with games and hookups for 10 bucks. One time I got a shoebox full of Odyssey 2 games for 50 cents, and they even came with manuals.; ▶ Reply to This

We also had Pong, but that's long been lost/sold.; ▶ Reply to This
