TL

I spent 4 hours playing my Saturn the other day and 3 hours with the Lynx last week, thats the longest gaming periods I have had in ages.

Usually I play for about an hour so at a time. Do something else and then sometimes go back to it.

TrekMD

I usually play something every week.  Be it a handheld (Lynx, GBA) or console.  Of course, because I've been doing Vectrex reviews lately, that's what's seen the most action.

Going to the final frontier, gaming...


Rogue Trooper

Use emulation for the system's i've sold or given away over the past few years (SNES, Lynx, MD etc), as just did'nt have the room for the systems and i'd rather they were being played, than sat in a box in my place, so i play a LOT of Lynx+MD stuff via emulation (don't hate me, it hurts thinking just how big a collection on both formats i once had:Lynx Mk1, Mk 2, stack of games, MD, MCD+32X again, stack of games).

Like to think i played what i wanted on N64, Saturn, SNES+Jaguar-though still own few misc N64 games, same for PC (windows'95/98/XP era games).

My PSone is boxed up, lent all my games out a mate who's just got into RETRO, use MAME an awful lot, plus various Retro comps on PSP+Xbox+PS2.

Just bought JAP Taito Memories Pocket, just to play Bubble Bobble on PSP.

Sadly neglected my GBA for months...

NEVER used my Neo-Geo Colour Pocket (shock!)

and Loathe my GB, so that's staying boxed ip/sat in a cupboard.

Nothing wrong with emulation Rogue Trooper. I use emulators more often then I should for gaming.

The small area I fixed up in my garage stays just warm enough to not hurt the consoles or games. So I either have to cycle systems into the house or wait for warmer weather.

Seems easier to emulate something on the Dreamcast or computer.

Agree about the PSP for retro compilations. The GameCube GameBoy player seems to take my time for GB and GBA games.

Shadowrunner

I have two TVs in my house so just about every console I own is hooked up and gets regular use. Generally play my retro consoles on the weekend though and modern games during the week.
