Not counting "all-in-one" rereleases like the NES and SNES Classics, or the millions of Atari plug-and-play systems.

For me, it's probably my SNES, though the power cable is shot, but last I checked, it still was capable of working. We did have an NES years ago, but I have no idea where it is now; likewise with my mom's old Atari 2600 which I only saw once as a child and never again, and I don't think even she knows where it is at this point.

I often wonder if we are growing as a people... or in fact, regressing.

Xbox One and i dont mean that as a joke. I just dont have any retro consoles anymore. If i wanna play retro games I'd need to emulate them. Though i haven't done that for a long time

Dai Grepher: I was wrong. My entire theory is incorrect. Zero Mission IS a remake of Metroid.

a ps3 though i don't know if i have the cables to turn it on. But even when it was working the hdmi plug was super finicky to get video out (cat yanked the cable out once and it never was the same after).

there's no reason i don't just throw it out but it sits in the closest all the same.

I still have my NES somewhere, but it doesn't work anymore. My original Playstation still worked last time I tried it though.

Still have my SNES from when I got it in the mid 90's. Haven't hooked it up since 2012, but it still worked at that time. It's turned into that bleached yellow color, hah, but I think that was a common issue with a lot of SNES' that have survived to this day.

After that, it would be my N64 (got it in 1997), GBC (got it in 1998/99), and original Xbox (got it in 2002). But I haven't hooked any of those up since probably the mid to late 2000's.

I also had a Sega Genesis and PS1 in the 90's, but sadly the Sega did not survive over the years and the PS1 I gave away when I got the PS2 in 2001/02.
