Game System Collection - What's your theme?

[LoneCynic]

Here are a few pictures of some of my game consoles, perhaps you notice a running theme? I will add more pictures when I have time, but this is a nice cross section of my collection. Comments are welcome. I also have a Samsung LCD that is a matching color to all of these. It looks pretty cool actually, all set up.

White .

The running theme is that they are all game consoles, thats just obvious =p

Well, the theme I was talking about was that they are all white. I think it looks pretty cool all set up together with an LCD TV that is white also. Just a rather unique display.

My NES (Model 1), SNES (Model 1), and Playstation (Model 1) are all gray, and my Playstation 2 (Model 1 with HDD), Playstation 3 (60gb), Gamecube, Nintendo 64, Saturn, and Genesis (Model 2) are all black. I am not much for the Purple Nintendo consoles ("Atomic Purple N64", "Indigo GCN" anyone?) or any other number of limited edition color variants. White, Black, or Gray, those are the colors I grab when I pick up a new system. Not even really big on the Silver Consoles either, although my Gameboy Pocket and NDS are both Silver. I do admit, if someone had matching Platinum set of Gamecube and PS2 Slim, that would look pretty awesome. Show some pictures, what color versions are your consoles?

Seriously, I used to have a NES, SMS, Genesis, SNES, TG16, PSX, 3DO, PS2, GCN, and Wii. Plus portables. But most of those are gone, and I am left with NES, SNES, PSX, GCN, PS2, and Wii.

Actually, I'm wondering whether there's even any point in keeping the GCN nowadays... It's cute, but I could put the money towards another game. Anyone in support of keeping the GCN, or should I continue my "theme" of selling my consoles?

Game Boy Player and better Freeloader compatibility for GC games are the practical reasons for keeping it. That's why mine is still set up and occasionally used. It also depends if you want to be a collector or not.

I keep my GC so my mini bros can borrow it.
To counter all the PS2 they are experiencing :P
