7800fan Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Me: too many I have Atari 7800 via RF (for some reason Harmony cart displays funky half-interlaced lines over composite, like my TV is only accepting one field and not second field for a complete frame). AV modded Colecovision and Intellivision 2, NES (stock AV), SNES, N64, GC, Duo-R, PSOne, PS2, XBox, Sega Genesis with CD + 32X, Saturn (just got it today), and DC are all connected via massive multi-AV switch box (made from 6x 5 ports Intec switch boxes with S-Video support) DC is also connected via RGB cable to VGA port for that few nice games. Wii U is connected via HDMI. I also have a cable connected to switch box for my PSP but it's fairly rare. If I had the room I'd shoehorn O^2 and Atari 5200 I have somewhere but I'd have to give up my Commodore 128D setup with its own monitor. SMS games are on my Game Gear with McWill LCD + VGA out so there's no reason to have SMS console or a power base converter (32x is a PITA to deal with since it has to be removed completely to use SMS mode) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Currently: Switch, PS4(for movies), NES Classic Edition, and a Retron5 on the HDMI with a switcher box. Then on a RCA switcher there's Wii, Gamecube w/GB Player, Dreamcast, N64. Contemplating pulling a second switcher I've kept in a box for ages and bringing the toploader modded NES out and my SNES and throwing the R5 to the sharks.

+-^CrossBow^- Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Well...my flat panel decided to up and crap out tonight..(Owned it just 2 months past its year warranty...figures). Anyway, it had the following connected and its replacement will have the same: TurboDuo - S-video DreamCast - S-video (May go back to VGA with new TV) SNES jr - S-video SMS - S-Video Wii - Component PS3 - HDMI Jaguar w/CD - Composite Wii-U - HDMI Saturn - S-video Genesis w/32x & Model 1 Sega CD - S-video (From 32x) 7800 - S-video Those are currently connected with power ready to go. But as my 8input AV switcher has front inputs, I can also quickly connect up any other system. As such I have these on the shelf ready to plug in as needed: ColecoVision - Composite Intellivision - Composite Atari 5200 - S-video Good thing all the wires and mess from this is hiding behind the display case they all sit in. And it sucks when something needs to be swapped out or moved because the entire case has to be moved out (Stupid heavy) in order to get to things.

Skippy B. Coyote Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 At the moment I've got 6 consoles hooked up to a Sony KV-20FS120 WEGA Trinitron CRT TV (which is my only gaming TV since I don't play modern games), most of which are run through a General Electric 4-Device A/V Switch Box. They are...

HoshiChiri Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Currently hooked up to my Samsung 32" j6300: Composite switcher running to HDMI converter- SNES, N64, Gamecube, Master System, Genesis/Sega CD, Saturn, Dreamcast, and a VCR. Component switcher- PS2, Xbox, PSP (well, the A/V cable to attach it to at least) HDMI switcher- PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Wii U. There's room for a Switch, but I haven't bought one yet. A/B coaxial switch- NES toploader. So, that's 15 hooked up at all times. The A/B switch & HDMI converter are set up for easy access so the systems I don't keep hooked up (Channel F, Atari 2600 Jr, Atari 7800, Intellivision, composite modded Colecovision) are quick to get set up. Not bad for a setup that mostly fits in a 4' x 4' chunk of floorspace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Loguidice Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Many years back I tried to have all of my systems hooked up at once, but once my collection started growing, that proved impractical. Now, it's about having modern systems hooked up to our active TVs, and a few select classic systems hooked up to vintage displays. The countless hundreds of other systems in my collection get hooked up on demand. That just seems to make more sense, particularly since there are only so many hours in a day/week/month/year. On our main family room TV, I have an Xbox One, PS4, and Switch dock, and, ready to trade the HDMI port with the Switch is a Retro Freak (I recently got away from have an HDMI auto switch for the sake of simplification). There are other active TVs throughout the house with various combinations of current/last gen systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilipTheWhovian Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I don't have much space around my TV, but I still managed to fit my Wii and Ps2 via Scart and an Xbox 360 via HDMI. My Videopac and pong console are nearby, just in case I feel like playing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dj_convoy Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) Lots. PS4, 3 and 2, hooked up by hdmi, hdmi and component respectively, plus a Retron 5 (hdmi), Wii (for Gamecube and via component to hdmi "upscaler"), Wii U (hdmi), 360 (hdmi) and PSTV (hdmi) to the big living room TV. Atari 5200, Intellivision and Colecovision with 2600 doodad hooked up by gross RF splitter to my tiny little 13" CRT TV in bedroom A. Deep breath for this one: Saturn, N64, Gamecube (w/ GB player), 3D0 and Retron 3 (for NES and SNES) via S-Video (and a laserdisc player, too), plus a Dreamcast, TurboDuo and SEGA Master System hooked up via composite, plus another PS2 (Japanese) and a Genesis/32X/SEGA CD hooked up via big, bad, beautiful component cables to the 32 inch CRT in bedroom B. There's probably a VCR somewhere in all of that, too. Edited May 10, 2017 by dj_convoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eltigro Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Well, I have two TVs currently, so... On the LCD: XBox One (HDMI) XBox 360 (HDMI) XBox (Composite) PS2 (Composite) PSOne (Composite) Dreamcast (Composite) Genesis (Composite) SNES (Composite) Gamecube (Composite) Jaguar (rf) On the CRT: 2600 (rf) Intellivision (rf) Master System (rf) NES (rf) TurboGrafx (rf) Saturn (Composite) But honestly? I need to completely redo everything. Many of these systems are "hooked up" in the sense that they are on the desk... several share a cable or whatever. For example, I'm using the same composite cable for the SNES and the Gamecube. The same rf cable runs the TurboGrafx, SMS, 2600, Intellivision, and NES. The same composite cable is shared by the PS2 and the PSOne. Also, there are several items that I have to unplug the power cable to plug in something else. But they are all relatively quick to start playing. Moreso than the N64, for example, which is in a box in storage because I simply ran out of room.

Torr Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Right now I have a Genesis/CD/32X and a Dreamcast hooked to a 14" CRT. Bigger looks nicer,.. until the gaming really starts, then I prefer a smaller screen to focus on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
