Just for kicks wondering how many of you still have a system. I was on a friends today and it was a blast playing all the old school. I would love to get a top of the line MAME to play everything but this was fun. Just looking for your guys thoughts on a blast from the past.

At least 3 Atari 2600s (one boxed), 1 x 5200, 2 (I think) x 7800, 1 x Colecovision, 1 x Vic 20, 1 x Texas Instructments, a Radio Shack Tandy, Nintendo (original) in box, Super Nintendo (might have 2), a boxed Atari Jaguar and a mess load of cartridges -- last count well over 400. And an Xbox.
That's it.
Haven't played any of it since I had my first son 7 years ago. Was actually thinking of setting up the 7800 some time as it plays the 7800 games and 2600.
3 C64's with 1541 drives (one might be busted) 1 C64 desk... yeah I said desk 1 Pong type system, works on batteries eheh 2 Amiga 500, one with a 40 gig... er, 40 meg hard drive 1 Amiga 1200 with a busted hard drive but I do have 2 others so I'll swap it soon 1 Colecovision with 10 or 12 games 1 3DO with about 10 games (underrated system) 1 NES with a couple of games. I might have 3 others but I can't remember if I got rid of them or not 1 SNES 2 Genesis 1 PSP 1 PSone 1 PS2 1 Xbox 1 PS3 1 Xbox 360 with a bunch of games 1 Mame arcade mini-cab presently going through a Sparkarized upgrade
I haven't booted some of these in a while, I'm due. No pinball yet, but I have a dedicated pinball budget on the go and I estimate I might have enough by Fathers Day to recitify this gross oversight.
this summer was our yard sale. had a truck load and i do mean truck load of commodore stuff. all i kept was the old dial phone. loads were boxed. at least 9 disc drives. way too much software. i had my brothers, his best friend and my collection all together. it fill my small computer room i had. yes, i too had the old pet computer.
had two vectrex's and almost all games that came out. even stuff that was done in the 90's.
atari, you name it and i sold it. didn't have every game. but i think there were at least 600.
nintendo NES with about 300 games only. but did have some that had the 101 in 1 and such. robbie the robot and all the funky controllers that came out. fav was the track and field controller. i had snes, gameboys (still have two), n64.
turbo graphics 16 and also the disc drive unit. had about 70 games only. was one of my fav systems every. cause i had the portable unit for it as well. most games played in either.
sega master system and sega 16bit systems as well. loads of games. sega handheld as well.
neo geo. i had two different systems. one was panosonic and i forget the other. loads of games.
colleco vision and a few games.
most were sold to friends before the yard sales. but some didn't go till the yard sale. happiest day was the guy coming and buying all the commodore stuff at once. took him a couple trips.
have since picked up a couple more systems and my wife is getting ready to beat me again if i start collecting again. but i have no desire. summer is coming again and i think i will have another yard sale or two. have about 200 board games left over from last years as well.
I still have all the Atari 2600 system versions...boxed.
Got a few Sears and Gemini as well.
Also have 2 5200s (1 boxed), 7800 boxed, Jaguar boxed (BRAND NEW!!!) and a Lynx (not boxed).
Got 400+ carts for the 2600.
Got a nice Intellivision collection too (4-5 systems, mostly boxed), about 100 games mostly boxed and tons of accessories.
Got a boxed Coloecovision and about 6-70 carts...
Also have boxed NES, SNES, 3DO and Amiga computer (I think I still have it?)
I actually take out the VCS once in a while...

Life is like Pinball!! You never know where you will bounce or where your going but sometimes you have that one amazing shot But on the other hand you have those darn gutter ball where you just get frustrated.
