HardWired: Your Collection 2020

[Neon Ignition]

I know list threads usually do okay because lists are just so damned satisfying to make but I didn't at all expect people to have the kinds of collections that have been listed so far. I fully thought we were now really into the era where most had sold off a lot of their stuff.

[vanpeebles]

I must admit I do like making lists. I've got a spreadsheet of all my pocket games, when bought and paid etc, and also for PC Engine and Neo Geo AES.

New 3DS XL.

PCs
Win 10 system - Quad Core i5 something or other with nVidia GTX860 or 960 (can't remember!), 8GB DDR and a SATA SSD. Might try using it for emulation sometime!
Win 7 system - fast Pentium 4 dual core, Radeon R7 something (230 maybe) 1GB, 4GB RAM and a spinning rust HDD. Might switch it on this year. Maybe.

Spectrum Vega.
C64 Mini.

Spare parts
Sega Saturn mk 2 white.

Thought I had backed the Kickstarter but actually didn't: ZX Spectrum Next.

I would hate to try and list all the stuff I've bought and sold over the years. Pretty much most of the above. Twice. Never again.

[Hirst]

Not a huge lot, but I decided when I was decorating that I wanted to sort things out properly instead of a constant pile of machines all over the place with rarely more than one set up and wires all over. I've left a bit of room for expansion (would like a PC Engine and Super Fami at some point) but just enjoying what I have for now.

TV:
Toshiba 40" 1080p LCD - everything directly input via switcher boxes, no scaler. Has component input! Would like to get an OSSC or RetroTink 2X Scart for the older machines, but haven't got round to it yet. I'm actually happy with the image quality as-is, but it doesn't handle things like shadow flicker correctly on the 240p stuff. Sound via a Denon sound bar

Setup and ready to go:
PS4 Pro
PS3 Slim
Xbox 360 S
PS2 Slim
Dreamcast
Saturn (JP grey)
PS1 (chipped)
Mega Drive 1 (JP)/Mega CD 1 (PAL) (with SMS converter)
Famicom (JP original model converted to AV out)

Handhelds:
Neo Geo Pocket Color

Not Setup:
ZX Spectrum (off to be recapped soon, then will get setup again!)
Gamecube (given to me, not had time to try it yet)
Xbox (used to play online back in day, never had much "offline" stuff so can't be bothered, too worthless to sell right now)
Saturn (my original PAL model, replaced by JP one - was going to chip and give away but difficult as it's a Model 1)
Master System 1 (have SMS converter for MD but feel sentimental about it - yet can't figure out what to do with it)
Atari 2600 (dead, a little upcoming project to put Pi inside it)

Getting stuff set up properly and having a big clear-out has greatly renewed my interest in tinkering with old games, even if I haven't had as much time lately to actually play them.

Scaled down loads over the years, even in the proccess of selling all my Nintendo handheld stuff. There's just not enough time with a full time
job and a 3 and a half year old kid to justify owning more than I currently own:

Nintendo Wii U
PlayStation 3 Slim
PlayStation 4 Pro
SNES Mini (largely unused)

I have an average gaming PC that I mainly use for visual novels, indies, Vita ports (give me MeiQ and Dungeon Travelers 2, please) and some Xbox exclusives like Ori and Sunset Overdrive. Also have a laptop but it's not dedicated to gaming, though I love reading VN's on it.

I kinda miss owning a PS Vita but even approaching the thought of having to buy a memory card to go with it makes me sick. In addition to that, the import rules gets much stricter from April 1 - they basically removed the import limit so you pay from the first Pound (or Norwegian Crown in my case) which is insane, so it's domestic purchases for me from here on out.

Homebrew gets you round the need for Sony's memory cards and it's pretty easy to do. So many Vita games are on PC now though, I'm not sure its needed. Apart from Dungeon Travellers 2 like you mentioned which I would love to be on Steam and GOG as well.

[Dogg Thang]

Ready to play right now:

Switch.
WiiU (only because I haven't packed it away yet).
SNES Mini.
Megadrive Mini.
PS3.
3DS.
DS.
GBA.
NGPC.
Vita.
PSP/Go.

So lots of handhelds, really. Also have the 360 under the telly but it's been dead for years (power supply thingy, I think).

Boxed away, I have: Wii, PS2, PS1, XBox, Dreamcast, GC, Saturn, N64, Megadrive, a bunch of GBs, Game Gear.

But the best system of all is my own imagination and the friends who join me on my journeys.

Yeah, I'm aware of the homebrew stuff, but still. Agreed regarding ports, so few actual Vita games are still exclusives, most of them are available on PC/PS3/PS4.
