I Don't Have As Many Systems As I Used To

In the last few years, I have sold or given away several of my gaming systems. While I still enjoy gaming, I don't play as often as I used to and it seems many systems just don't hold much interest for me anymore. I've been selling or giving away systems I just don't play anymore...I figure if I haven't played it in a year or two, why keep it? Here are the systems I have struck from my collection in the last 2-3 years...

 

Atari 2600

Atari 5200

Atari Lynx

ColecoVision

Nintendo 64

Sega Genesis

Sega Saturn

 

Wow, that's even more than I thought. Other systems I used to have but which I sold or traded away more than 3 years ago would include the Atari 7800, 3DO, original Game Boy, and Sega Master System. So what systems do I still have? Here is that list...

 

Atari Jaguar (Yes, I do still have one Atari system left!)

Nintendo DS

Nintendo GameCube

Super Nintendo

Sega Dreamcast

Sony Playstation

Sony Playstation 2

Xbox

 

I think that's it. No, I do not currently own (and never have) any of the latest systems...no PS3, Wii or Xbox 360. I'm happy with what I have. These days I've mostly been playing my DS and my PS2...I actually recently had my first perfect game for any baseball video game...I did that on MLB Power Pros 2008 for the PS2 using Jake Peavy.

I currently have a PS3, Wii, DS, N64, SNES, 7800, and a CoCo. I think I have a 2600 or two in a box in the basement, and a couple of old Gameboys too.

 

I'm thinking of dumping the SNES and use emulators on the Wii (or the DS if I get a flashcart). Right now my son is using it to play Pokemon Blue via a SuperGameBoy. Maybe I'll just buy him a GBC off ebay and he can play it that way.

Glancing at what I still have, I don't really see anything else I plan to get rid of...that's 8 systems, just over half of the 15 I used to have. I guess I could technically get rid of my PS1 systems since I can play my PS1 games on my PS2 but I don't think I'm going to do that...it really wouldn't count since I'd still have the games anyway. Then, what would I do if my PS2 went bad?

Pokemon Platinum was on sale for C$30 at the local big box electronics store, so he's going to get that. That should replace Pokemon Blue so we won't need to keep around the SNES.

I wrote this blog entry at my LiveJournal blog, too. After reading that I had cut down to 8 systems, my brother commented that I still had 7 systems too many... :ponder:
