I wanna try and get an original Xbox and start getting games for it - it's really nostalgic to me and it's been a long time since I've gotten to use one. Even though a lot of the games I'd want to play I can already play just fine, and some of them are on Steam.

After that, I think that might be the last console I really care a lot about that I don't have? Unless I wanted to start getting ones that don't have a ton of games I like, but I want to get consoles to play them, not to collect.

As far as non-handheld consoles go, I've got... an NES, SNES, N64, Genesis, PS1, PS2, GameCube, Wii, and Switch.

Add an Xbox in there and that's pretty much every console I've got some sort of personal connection to. Which I should probably have before going beyond just emulating something.

@NovaSquirrel out of curiosity, why bother having both a ps1 and a ps2? or is it one of the less compatible ps2s and you're interested in some of the games that don't work right?

@Felthry I don't usually sell stuff, like how I kept my Game Boy Color after the Game Boy Advance came out. But I do own a game that won't work on the PS2 I have (Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo).

If I didn't already have a PS1 when I got a PS2 I probably wouldn't bother to get one.
