This is a thread for posting about what old consoles you still have or recently bought.

One the last few years I picked up a Dreamcast, Gamecube, and WiiU. For whatever reason I have a fondness for older consoles even if I don't game on them much. Especially ones like the DC and WiiU that were commercial disasters.

The second hand game market can be absolutely absurd though, an original MP in case with a manual cost me as much as the remaster that just came out. I also spent an arm and a leg getting an original gamecube controller but then ruined it because I tried to remove a gigantic label they'd glued to it with acetone and it scored the plastic really bad :negative:

I bought mine shortly after the console was discontinued and felt like a goddamn genius because everything was so cheap. my first game for it was an insanely scratched copy of sonic adventure which loaded about 25 percent of the time
