After seeing Vyothric's chat box comment about his array of retro consoles, let's see who else still plays on original hardware... What's the oldest retro console that's connected to your TV right now?

I own most of the golden age consoles, but the oldest console that I keep connected is the Sega Genesis. I also use a power base converter to play Master System games and use my Turbo Duo & Duo-R to play TG-16 & PC Engine Hucards but the 1989 Genesis v1 is my oldest console that still gets regular use.

Oldest console connected right now is a Playstaion.  I haven't switched it on for some time.  I just had a look and the disk inside is Star Trek Invasion.

On the shelf below it is one of my Commodore 64s.  It's a C64c from '86. Last used during the Christmas holidays to play Maniac Mansion and Lords.

I nearly didn't post that Laird, due to the shame. On the plus side it's been modded and runs emulators of Megadrive and Snes etc. so it's kind of ... ah forget it  :-[

I do actually have a 2600 "Woody" connected to the TV in my spare room. But it is just for show, it never gets used.

Mine would either be my Genesis or TGX, both hooked up in the spare room.

Currently my spare room has all my old school stuff hooked up. My Dreamcast, original Xbox and Jaguar are hooked up to my PC, the TGX, Saturn and Mega Drive/32x/MCD combo are connected to my lovely little Sony Trinitron, along with the abomination that is the PS2 next to it lol

I have a Megadrive hooked up to an old style 19" LCD.  It doesn't get played on much, but the intention is there.
