Game/console collectors thread

I still have an old Donkey Kong somewhere in my spare room, I should get some batteries and fire it up again.
I got it for free in the post during hard lock down in 2020 by a guy in Gauteng, he no longer wanted it, was his since he was a kid, I couldnt say no.

Ok cool, I thought that was actual hardware collections. How many physical consoles do you own?

Only have Switch, PS2, PS3, PS5. Xbox Series X and a PC

Anbernic, Pi and so on covers the emulation world of games.

With my wife's Lego collection, there is not enough space in the house for physical consoles.

I take it you are a gamer?
 
I still have a Nintendo Game Cube around somewhere. What do those oukies go for nowadays? Stupid money or just normal money?

There is no such thing as too tired. Hell last night I woke up at 12 to go pee and stopped by the Xbox did 3 x Diablo 4, Nightmare runs, killed the world boss before I got back into bed.

and NO, I am not addicted to games.
