    I was at my cousin’s for a Christmas party and he still has his N64 with a lot of great games. I wish I held on to that stuff when I was younger.

    I just lifted a crt tv out of my in-laws' basement.  I have my NES hooked up to it, still have all my old games.  I might find a SNES and some games.  I own my sega and ps1 and a bunch of games too I want to hook up.  Looks terrific on the crt
    Good on you for hanging on to that stuff because some of it sells for decent money now a days. I tend to just throw a lot of stuff out because I hate clutter lol.
    A friend of mine has managed to hang on to all of the systems from his childhood, along with the original packaging for the systems, games and accessories. He has every Nintendo system from the NES through the Switch, all of the Xbox versions and all of the Playstation versions through the PS4.

    He told me he took some of the old stuff into the local shop and they offered him a staggering amount of money. He ended up hanging onto it all for now. It is really an interesting trip down memory lane to see all of that stuff!
    This is me, I kept all my Segas and Xboxes and have every console except Sega CD. Whatever Nintendos and Playstations I didn't have as a kid I acquired as an adult.
    That's awesome! My brothers ended up with the NES and Super NES from our childhood. I had the Genesis, Sega CD and 32x but I'm pretty sure my college roommate stole them. Total douche, that guy was.

    I have a NES x3, Game Boy x4, Sega, Sega CD, PS1, PS2, PS3, XBox 360 (wont read disks anymore and is junk), as well as modern stuff.  

    I also have a decent pile of games.  I shared a house with some friends after college and once we all moved out, they gave me some of their stuff.  I have a decent pile of NES games (loose cartridges mostly) some of them in triplicate.

    One thing I regret in hindsight is growing up with NES, then moving on to Sega Genesis.  I missed out on SNES.  I want to play those games I think.  Broke out my SNES mini and have been playing.  Kind of want to get a SNES.
    SNES was the best of the 90's systems, IMO. Lots of great games that are still a blast today.

    You can play those old games on the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, along with the NES, N64, Game Cube, Game Boy and Game Boy Advanced.
