Busaiku Teyvat Traveler Member Oct 25, 2017 17,295 When I say older, I mean hardware that doesn't have officially licensed games being released any more, so that basically rules out PS4 and even XBO. What systems ya still regularly play on a consistent basis? Don't gotta be every day or week or even month, just whatever ya tryna make through. If ya doin hardware emulation, it counts if ya bust out your original copies of the games. Basically just getting that original feel like back in the day. If ya runnin Arcade hardware, gotta be the original boards, not like 1Ups or whatevs. Still tappin away my GB/GBC/GBA on Pocket, New 3DS XL for DS/3DS, PSP and Vita for those respectively.  Spazgadget Member Oct 25, 2017 773 I actively play a (launch) PS3 that plays PS1, 2, and 3 discs. I also have a Gamecube hooked up, and a Dreamcast (not hooked up). This is in addition to my PS5 Pro and XBX, to be clear.  Dest Has seen more 10s than EA ever will Coward Jun 4, 2018 15,840 Work my vita gets more use than my switch   Taco_Human Member Jan 6, 2018 4,846 MA All original hardware, but ODEs and flash carts are definitely the way to go to keep them alive.   cowbanana Member Feb 2, 2018 16,159 a Socialist Utopia My Vita sees some action.   Kenai Member Oct 26, 2017 8,312 I opened up my 3DS recently to play some Pokemon Sun and some Etrian Odyssey. Like within the last month or so. Do that for random titles at least a few times a year. Same with PS2 games. Does the SNES Mini count? That's technically emulation right? I played that recently too.  The Unsent Member Oct 25, 2017 21,978 I use the Wii U daily and Wii Fit for my health, the balance board and measuring my weight.   Indelible Member Oct 27, 2017 16,723 Canada Still play Saturn, N64, and Dreamcast on my OLED TV using the Retrotink 5x.   Cess007 Member Oct 27, 2017 15,291 B.C., Mexico The PS3 is the oldest (original) hardware I still play.

Best thing I ever did was get the wireless 8BitDo controllers for them. Not the bluetooth but the 2.4Gz ones that only work with the OG consoles. I have them hooked up to an old school 27" JVC and 2.1 stereo surround sound system. Even have wood paneling in the basement. Feels like walking into 35+ years ago. Still trying to a 13" TV. I also collect horror VHS so I have a VCR hooked up as well.  TheWooniestWoona Member Oct 27, 2017 7,207 My Saturn, PS1, and N64 still get a lot of use, as does my Xbox, PS2, and GameCube. My PS3 has never not been hooked up to my main TV other than the brief period where my original one died and I had to get a new one and get everything transferred. I play a lot of SNES and Genesis, but I use an FPGA system for those most of the time, so I won't count that. I do have a Jaguar hooked up in my guest bedroom, but it doesn't get played much. My DS and 3DS are still by my bed ready for use. NES is hooked up, but I don't touch it as much as I used to. I got an AV Famicom that I want to use instead, but I don't have a cart adapter. Once I get that it will probably get more use. I've got an Atari 2600, 5200, and 7800, but they don't get pulled out much. I actually really like the 5200 and would love to play it more, but that controller sucks so much to deal with. I wish someone would make a modern version that actually works.  Pyro God help us the mods are making weekend threads Member Jul 30, 2018 18,364 United States My PS3 hasn't been unplugged/put away ever since I got it in 2010. A big reason I'm looking forward to the Raidou remaster is cuz the original is still really fresh in my mind!   maximumzero Member Oct 25, 2017 24,665 New Orleans, LA I typically rotate through Wii U & Wii games on my Wii U and 3DS and DS games on my 3DS (sometimes DSi) Do NES games via the AVS count?  ClearMetal Hey, it's that sheep! Member Oct 25, 2017 18,618 the Netherlands My DSiXL. I would maybe still use my GBA SP and GBC but I can barely see what happens on screen anymore. Still got my Nintendo 64 and PS2 but I haven't touched them in years.  DrForester Mod of the Year 2006 Member Oct 25, 2017 24,294 I have a small pocket in my travel bag that is the perfect size for a Game Boy Micro, so that comes with me everywhere.   Lady Bow Member Nov 30, 2017 11,759 Actively and mostly just playing GameCube and Dreamcast these days. Mainly Animal Crossing, Pikmin, and Sonic Adventure 2 at the moment.   russbus64 Member May 1, 2018 2,548 I get my 3DS and Vita out from time to time. I still have an OG Xbox and a 360 that I rarely touch. Maybe I'll get the former out again one day for Insignia. My PS3 is downstairs right now as I tried playing Tony Hawk's Proving Ground on Steam Deck (after successfully playing Project 8), only to find an odd vertex explosion bug in RPCS3. I'm moving my save back to PS3 to resume playing.   BennyWhatever Member Oct 27, 2017 5,420 US I just did the OLED mod on my Game Boy Color and play it regularly. I still play my n2DS XL a lot.  KDash Member Oct 25, 2017 4,001 Florida I keep all of my consoles hooked up for whenever I'm in the mood for them, which can be often. I always prefer using the original hardware, and I buy new games for them whenever I see something I want for a good price. I mainly play them on my CRT TV, but I also have my 4K TV right next to that, so I have a RetroTINK as well with a video/audio splitter so I can send it to both TVs (and a capture card) at the same time. For older hardware, I have an Atari 7800, TurboGrafx-16, NES, Super NES, Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii, Sega Master System, Sega Genesis with Sega CD and 32X add-ons, Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast, PlayStation, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox, and Xbox 360 hooked up alongside my more modern stuff (PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox Series X, Switch) in my room right now. Also my Wii U and Xbox One hooked up in another room. Only thing not plugged in right now is a Commodore 64. I also have a bunch of handhelds, but I don't use them very often. Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, DS, 3DS XL, Game Gear, PlayStation Portable, Neo Geo Pocket Color... I wish I had arcade boards. Maybe one day...  Shiz Padoo Member Oct 13, 2018 7,672 I have my WIi U, PS3 and 360 plugged in and ready to go. Handhelds within reach are 3DS, Vita, PSP and PSP Go.   digit_zero Member Oct 27, 2017 2,844 I think the only old hardware I still use are my DS and 3DS - I've used both within the past week. Technically I still have my Wii U and Wii hooked up to my TV, but its probably been at least a year since I used either. Retro Handhelds / emulation have taken over for anything before those consoles, its just a flat out better experience than OG hardware at this point. DS/3DS dual screen just hasn't been able to be topped as a form factor yet in emulation, so they live on.  OP OP Busaiku Teyvat Traveler Member Oct 25, 2017 17,295 pants said: Define actively?

I still very rarely use my 3DS because emulating that (and OG DS) is a pain in the ass. Maybe I'll also use my 360 again to play something like Lost Odyssey? Unless that works on Xenia now.  J_ToSaveTheDay "This guy are sick" and Corrupted by Vengeance Avenger Oct 25, 2017 22,149 USA New Nintendo 3DSXL. My unit was purchased late in the run in 2016, when Amazon had the exclusive North American lime green color with the Super Mario World Virtual Console digital game packed in. It was the 6th 3DS I bought over the 3DS generation (I really have a problem buying multiple Nintendo handhelds per generation because I am a massive sucker for special editions). I play one of my games on it once or twice a year, but rarely a full playthrough -- usually a week or two of messing around in a game. I most frequently use it to replay Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, A Link Between Worlds, or Starfox 64 on a whim. I just swapped its battery out for the first time a few weeks ago! So it's got a fresh new third party battery. I was also regularly pulling it out to monitor battery health over the years -- I would try to power it down with around 60-70% battery charge left and would come back to it having drained to around 20-30% a couple of months later if I didn't power it on to play anything... I figure since it's a Li-On rechargeable, it probably was at the end of its service life after nearly a decade of somewhat regular use. Hopefully that small task leaves it in service for another decade or so. :)  Patitoloco Member Oct 27, 2017 27,557 None! Unless you consider PS Now/PS Plus Premium playing a PS3  zyvorg Member Oct 25, 2017 699 Right now playing a lot of Ps2 (Midnight Club 3 and MGS 2 VR missions) on OG hardware, Mr. Driller in Dreamcast, previously N64 and SNES. With ODEs, flashcarts and wireless controller adapters, removes most of the inconveniences around pick up and play.  brannigan Member Nov 24, 2017 6,891 I've done most of my gaming on a DSiXL for the last couple of years.   zoodoo Member Oct 26, 2017 14,392 Montreal Original xbox. It was my least played during its generation but nowadays it's easiest to use with modern setup without having to mod or break the bank. It also looks much better on modern tv than ps2, gc, wii. I was surprised with the result after buying a simple hdmi cable. Quite a few games support wide screen too. I recently played Urban Chaos on it  Andromeda Member Oct 27, 2017 5,184 Plenty of oldies, running on Nintendo portables or consoles (almost all brands but mainly Nintendo) connected to my CRT. And judging by the price of modern videogames, it likely won't change in the near future.   jokkir Member Oct 25, 2017 8,983 I'm still bringing my 3DS around to play some Rhythm Heaven or something on the go   LuciaDMC Member Oct 27, 2017 9,190 Bengali My PSP, racking up 1000 hrs of Dissidia and about same hours in Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection and Tekken 6   Paroni Member Dec 17, 2020 4,660 PS2 has been the only console I have had hooked on my TV for years.
