I found the box I put most of my Genesis stuff in when I was getting my room ready to be painted, the only part that was missing was the actual console. I have all the games, cords, and controllers, the console's either in the garage or a storage unit so it's probably been melted beyond usability long ago.DuoShi said:My Genesis power adapter cable gave out. Made me sad. I have emulators instead.
I'd actually just stick with your PS2 unless you're mainly getting it as a collector's item, since the sound emulation for both PS1 and PS2 games was pretty terrible on mine (the 60GB launch model), and it died after only a couple of years, which apparently isn't that uncommon of an occurrence.SenaLuna said:PS3 (backwards compatible only, which is hard to find)

Dreamcast (fav system but it's gone, plus the Hello Kitty special editions for show and maybe the black sports edition for collectors sake)

It's actually just an inherent design flaw with the cooling mechanism in older PS3s, which essentially makes any one you get a time bomb. The cooling got completely redesigned later on, so the Slims and later don't have this problem.SenaLuna said:It's primarily for space conservation. Having had 4 different systems all plugged into the TV in my basement when I was a kid (dc, snes, ps1, ps2s until I started giving them away), the area behind the tv looked like it had been attacked by a giant squid. BWCP ps3 means there's one less system to contribute to the cord armageddon. One of my HS friends still has her bwcp model and I think it still works? At least it did in 2011 when I was living with her and she got it around launch time. Though I know the lens on the PS2 slims had a limited lifetime so I wouldn't be surprised if there was a faulty part in the PS3s as well...
