The most high tech console system I have is the Super Nintendo. After discovering Descent, I never needed a console system ever again!

I HAVE had a PSX and PS2, but they broke. I do have a PSP though.
I like to think I have a Descent taste of music.

My brother owns a Wii. He used to own a Gamecube, but he gave it to a friend.. He also owns a Game Boy Advance SP, and my two other siblings own regular Game Boy Advances. Me, I own a Game Boy Color (that I never really use) and my laptop (which I prefer as a gaming platform, honestly).

I'm mostly a PC guy but I actually want to get vintage consoles and games so I can drop my emulators (well, somewhat :P). I do have a Wii at home, but I never play it, and my brother took my PlayStation II

Also, I should start looking into handheld consoles, from the normal ones like game boy advances and psps and nintendo dses and from those awesome handheld consoles that are completely open source and run linux and a lot of other things.

I had one; brand new. Played "Super Mario World" and "Contra III" like all day.
Next day, was no longer working.

Bought another, got those two games again. lasted a bit longer, but is gone again.
Contra III was easy; and can be played in 30 minutes. I'm sure less for those who love to speed test games

Oh wow, I haven't seen that in awhile (we used to have one lying around the house, but I think we finally got rid of it).

I don't remember what it looked like exactly, but I want to say it was one of those type devices, maybe larger, but it was hangman. at least I think it was.

there seems to be no date associated with their response. But let us hope it is soon.

"We hope it will be finished soon..." I don't know, doesn't looks promising to me..?
