Current Events > What's the oldest game console you still own?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I still have my SNES and Game Gear.
I would still have my og gameboy if I hadnt dropped it on the corner of a bookshelf as a dumb, stupid kid.
Anyways, what about you guys n gals?

NES

I think I have an NES somewhere in my house

The oldest console whose location I know of is my PS2 but I think I have an NES, Genesis, and PS1 somewhere

PS3.

I'm not a collector so my entire life when I got a new console I gave away my old console and all games to kids in the family or kids of coworkers. Started doing this with Atari in the 80's. Once I got to the PS3 generation everyone was grown up and I no longer had anyone to give them away to. So they are just disconnected and sitting in my junk room.

Atari 2600

NES

Game Boy Color

N64 if that doesn't count

PS2

though I have had a Genesis, PS1 and Game Boy Color before I don't have any of those now

Technically, a Commodore 64, but I've never played it and I'm not certain it works. I just stopped someone else from throwing it out.
There's also an Atari in the house but its not mine.

Still reliably mine and playable: NES or Game Boy.
Still hooked up: SNES.

When it comes to video games, I tend to keep everything forever.

genesis

NES

Im glad it still works too

Famicom.

Atari 2600

Old classic fat PS2. I could've sworn I still had my GBC and GBA laying around, but I guess I tossed them out already. They were on their death beds anyway.

Gotta be my SNES. Got the thing within the first few months it came out. And is currently connected to my TV through an OSSC. Played Link to the Past on it a few days ago.

atari

(also nes, gameboy, game gear, genesis, snes, n64, psx, ps2, dreamcast, n64, turbografx 16, and a Colecovision thing that's newer but has all the good coleco games on it and real controllers and stuff)

Switch

PS2

Although have SNES emulator if were counting that

2600, still the one I had as a kid, and still the copy of Demon Attack I played constantly.

PS3. Assuming I do still have it somewhere, not actually 100% sure. Definitely still have a Vita.

Switch

Switch

This.

The only three consoles I still own are the Switch, PS5 and Xbox Series X.

NES, unless I can count my Game & Watches, the oldest of which would be Donkey Kong from 1982.

Ps3

N64

I still play my PS3 every two weeks.

Hasn't stopped working since I bought it lol.

OG, yellow SNES

Either a plug-and-play Atari or my PS1. I "own" an NES, but it doesn't work.

I have an SNES, not the same one I had growing up but it is one of the 2nd gen style ones which my grandma bought at a garage sale

I wish I still had the 50 games or so we owned, but my dad sold all that after the divorce

Still own but don't play = Wii
Still actually play sometimes = 3DS

I just got my Game Gear from my parents' house over Christmas. Full satchel with the magnifier, battery pack, and 6 or 7 games.

That's gonna be an Ebay sale real soon but that's the oldest I have right now.

NES. It has a pretty big crack on it's bottom right and so it's been through some shit in it's day, lol.

Same time NES post ah yeah.

I still have majority of my brother and I's old consoles. They are just packed away.

I have a footlocker that still has the genesis, sega cd and 32X tower of power in it.

I have a NES, but it is not my childhood one. The oldest console I have that has always been mine/not bought again later would be the PS1.

I got an SNES somewhere lol

NES - Still own it, but it's in a box who-knows-where
SNES / Sega / Original Gameboy - Haven't turned them on in ages, but I at least know where they are, with the Snes/Sega actually hooked up to an old CRT

Wii U

NES top loader

NES

My NES

Playstation 1. And if that doesn't work anymore then a PSP1.

N64

I might have an SNES, don't remember, but I stupidly gave all my games to my uncle's girlfriend of the year so it's kinda useless if I still have it :(

atari video pinball c-380 & 2600. likely not working.

N64 and PS.

I have an OG Gameboy, but it wasn't mine originally.

Nintendo DS. I think I have a PS1 somewhere, but I am not sure.

Atari 7800. It still works. I am positive I just don't have the right connections for it anymore. Oldest game though is KC Munchkin on the Odyssey 2. I think it's complete though not in great shape. It's still in my closet. It was a Pacman rip off though it did some different things. It was too close to Pacman iirc so they got sued.

I never owned a Odyssey 2 system.

NES.

I have one of those Atari Flashback things, which I guess could be counted as a 2600, but I don't count it as older than NES for two reasons:

1. I assume it's just got on emulator inside instead of bearing any resemblance to a 70's 2600.

2. It was released in 2005.

Xbox 360
I used to have older systems. My PS2 is broken and my brother sold my SNES.
