GameCube, PS2, and GameCube 1.5 lol

Redkey ,

When the Wii launched, a few pundits called it “two GameCubes taped together”, which I thought was a bit rude and overly dismissive.

Years later, I started really looking into the technical side of things, and oh my goodness it really is almost two GameCubes taped together. I mean, it works wonderfully and I’m not knocking it, but IIRC the majority of what’s under the hood is either an upgraded version of what was in the GCN, or a doubling of the capacity (in some cases literally two) of the same component.

Dust and pet hair know no bounds.

timo_timboo_ OP ,

Haha true, but only dust for me, no pets. I guess having carpet doesn’t help either. Let’s just say that it adds to the vibe.

I was just about to say the dust fits. It does add to the vibe.

And a VCR! Looove this setup, takes me back.

timo_timboo_ OP ,

That VCR is from my parents, they don’t use it anymore. I don’t really have any tapes for it though.

We had the first 3 Star Wars movies on VHS, which was the reason I set the thing up. Unfortunately, these tapes have somehow disappeared completely, they are nowhere to be found.

So it’s just decoration for now, but I’ll definitley get some other movies one day. Thank you for your comment!

Lol for years I had a tv VCR combo with only The Goonies, In The Army Now, and some old MASH episodes someone put on a tape. A simpler time indeed!

My middle age crisis retro tech collection compulsion is begging me to shout at you to take those brittle plastics out of direct sunlight. Those readily available, dirt cheap, well emulated plastics.

I mean, at least the Wavebird receiver. Won't somebody think of the Wavebird receiver.

From a more civilized age.

Right? It feels like gaming peaked with the 6th console generation. Just a fun time to look back at.

There’s a certain time of day that my little stack sits nicely in the sun with the cabinet door open.

Thanks for sharing!

timo_timboo_ OP ,

Yeah, having some evening sun shine into a room just gives it a great vibe. I just wish it wasn’t 29°C in here

Anyway, thanks for commenting as well!
