"The back of Onkyo’s TX-NR1000 home-theater receiver looks like something from a stress-induced nightmare. Why so many jacks? Onkyo said it's to "future proof" the thing. My idea of the future doesn't involve cables."

[Blanka]

Remember this is a 5 year old model. The future looked different back then. But hey, it is perfect for those consoles, and pretty cheap second hand (considering it is still a helluvalot of amplifier!).

I need something similar. I have all of mine hooked up at once but with daisy chained 4-input selectors. It does the job but kind of sucks.

[WhereEaglesDare]

you can use RCA Spliters and have mulptiple devices on the same selector, just dont have more than one powered up at the same time.

Nice. I will have to give that a try some time.

I've been doing that forever.  Doesn't work with Xbox or Xbox 360, though, they kill the shared sound inputs if you use component or composite connections.  If it bothered you enough, I'm sure you could toss a relay in them that broke the sound connections when they were turned off....

What was the reason behind that again? Xboxes grounds the circuit when its turned off or somesuch?

Well I imagine that it has to do with Impedance over the line with two systems, splitters weren't intended to split two inputs, but instead split two outputs.  I bet older systems aren't as sensitive to this and have far more tolerance.

[SavannahLion]

You may be right but I have serious doubts the age of the console has anything to do with it.

[Malenko]

You may be right but I have serious doubts the age of the console has anything to do with it.

It doesnt have anything to do with it. Its the way the XBOX and xbox360 ground the outputs; something PBJ brought up in a previous thread. For the standard 4 input selectors you can double up 3 of the 4 inputs and put the XBOX on its own. Its how I used to do it.

The Gamecube was a fun purchase, flight out of Kansai airport on launchday and department store in the airport terminal opened just in time for me to hotfoot if out with a gamecube and the 3 launch games and still catch my flight.  
Have quite a few DC accessories... Lightgun, ethernet adaptor, mouse (Quake3), keyboard (Typing of the Dead), microphone (Sea-Man).  Still need to pick up the fishing reel and maracas sometime.

[Bootay]

I need to get some DC accessories. I am lacking.

Good luck on the Maracas they go for some mad loot at times. I have seen them on ebay for $80+ which is too much to pay for a controller that is only for one game. LOL

[MidnightClubbed]

Yeah, I should have picked them up back when you could find them in the bargain bins.... during the sad end of Sega's dream.
That said they'd probably sit in the closet like the Donkey Conga Bongos, and the Drum Master drums I have lying around somewhere.  I'm a sucker for music peripherals; at least the Rockband kit (and the assorted Guitar Hero guitars) still get regular use.

I actually paid $80 (times two) for them NEW when they first came out.   And I remember unloading them fairly quickly for roughly half what I originally paid.   Samba De Amigo is only amusing for a few days...

Yet I still regret selling them.

all of my consoles are in decent working condition, with exception of the Jaguar.  i bought it at a flea market for $10 with 3 games, however it very rarely ever works.  it usually just turns on, the screen turns red and it locks up.  after alot of tries, it will eventually work.  most of my systems are packed away right now, i currently have the PS2, PS3, Xbox, 360, and Wii connected and ready for use.  the ps2 is in my showcase cabinet for lightgun games, the 3 xboxes are pretty much used only for xbmc and emulators.

A few oddball handhelds

All kinds of add-on's and peripherals...can't begin to list.

[Bootay]

Oh...well ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---.....if we are adding computers too, I should add the following to my list:

C64 (brown)
C64C (white)
Amiga 2000
Amiga 4000 (with Indivision AGA flicker fixer and IDE->CF 4gig card)
Apple IIGS
G4 Mac with 1 gig of RAM
G5 Mac with 3 gigs of RAM

And of course a few PCs..

[RandyT]

Oh...well ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---.....if we are adding computers too, I should add the following to my list:

Back in the day, computers were the ultimate console game systems    IMHO, if it had a cartridge slot, it was a hybrid.  The Amigas don't really qualify as such, but they were great game machines at the time.

[Bootay]

Agreed, and the same could be said about the C64 IMO.

[RandyT]

Agreed, and the same could be said about the C64 IMO.

The Commodore Vic-20, 64, 64-SX and 128 computers have cartridge ports and a number of games were released for them.  So they, along with the Ti99/4a, Atari 400, 800 and ST, as well as MSX computers, were a little different in that the hardware leaned specifically toward gaming.  The Amiga just had much better graphics and sound hardware, as well as the C64 legacy as a very popular gaming platform, which allowed it to follow in the 64's footsteps.  But no cartridge port on the Amiga, so it might be hard to truly consider it a "console", even though the 500 is very C64-like in design.

Ahhh..I see where you're going with that. Makes sense.

My first computer was a C64 and then I upgraded to an Amiga. I didn't officially switch to PCs until the late 90s. I did use them at work though so I was familiar with them and my friends had them so I was familiar with the games they had and how to use DOS etc. But I preferred my Amiga until it was virtually impossible to continue using one as my main computer and still do new things (around the Windows 98 days). I still use my Amiga 4000 and C64 weekly though...for classic gaming. I am still a Commodore fanboy. I have a CDTV as well....and I should be getting a couple of CD32s soon for free that are broken. I am hoping to make at least one of them work out of the 2.

[RedCapsMan]

Randy,

I see your list and I raise you one Pioneer LaserActive with a Sega Pak! and also an X'Eye.

Are we counting Game & Watches too?  I've got Egg, Balloon Kid and Mario the Juggler.  What about Simon or the classic Mattel sports games where you move little red dots around?
Um... also some Coleco Tabletop games Mrs Pacman, Frogger, Munchman and Alien Attack.  Jeeze I'm gonna have to stay up late and write everything down now.

Atari Super Pong
Tandy Pong
Colecovision
Intellivision: Models I and II
Tandy Color Computer 3 with its own RGB monitor
Commodore Vic 20
C64 Joystick with built in games (this one feels like padding the list)

Atari 2600: heavy sixer and a vader
Atari 2600 Jr
Atari 5200
Atari 7800

NES: original and toploader
SNES: original and model 2
N64: original and a green one
Game Cube
Wii: Launch day Wii and a used one that gets all the new mods first so I don't screw the first one
Gameboy
Pocket Gameboy
Gameboy Color
Gameboy Advance
Gameboy Advance SP in a store display unit\kiosk thing
Gameboy Advance SP the one that looks like a little NES
GBA Micro 20th Ann Ed
Virtualboy
DS Lite
Those three Game & Watches

Sega Master System: with light phaser and 3d glasses
Sega Genesis\CD\32x original models
Sega Genesis\CD\32x model 2s with wireless controllers
Sega Genesis Model 3
JVC X'Eye
Pioneer LaserActive with Sega Pak (only one laserdisc game "Pyramid Patrol" which isn't fun)
Sega Saturn: Models I and II
Dreamcast: White and the black Sega Sports Ed
GameGear
Nomad
Sega Game Base (the SMS adapter thing that goes in a Genesis)

Playstation
PSOne
PS2 phat

XBox: too many hanging around, but a couple are in my cabs, one loosely based on MK and the other is in a Mario Bros Widebody and they're loaded to the gills.  Yet another is going into a Space Invaders II cocktail cab at some point when I find time.  I get my buttons and joysticks from GroovyGameGear since Randys right in town.

At one time I had two audio towers set up on either side of my tv with a Nintendo Tower and a Sega Tower that had everything hooked up ready to play.  It was a wiring nightmare.

Interesting accessories include the Samba de Amigo maracas and light guns and what have you.  My favs are the old school wireless controllers for the old systems.  The kind where games were lost or won depending on what side of the room your little sister walked in from and blocked your signal.  And the SMS 3d glasses! wow those are impressive but you've got to use a CRT.

Thats it for now, I'm sure I'm forgetting something,
Red

 
Edit: forgot the Panasonic and Goldstar 3DOs, the TurboGrafx16 and a V-Smile.  Don't ask about the V-Smile...
Edit #2: forgot the Mattel Aquarius and my old phone the Nokia N-Gage QD, now its really time for bed.

[amendonz]

haha i just scored some wireless controls for mega drive the other day. great idea, terrible in application. Basically need the control to be perfectly facing the receiver for them to do anything.

[WhereEaglesDare]

Yea I know the ones, the six button ones.
someone should build RF adapters for the Genesis.  Theyd sell millions.

[Osirus23]

Not many hdmi ports on that thing...unless im just missing them in the analog forrest.

The first thing I noticed when I saw that thing.

nah, actually the worse quality acclaim 3 buttons.. i think sega might have made the 6 button ones

Malenko, this came up in Oklahoma CL today.  He has listed KI Gold for 64, and 007 too- you might contact him.  He seems highly intelligent.
