Well, there's always a need for a fancy CRT in Chez Ciderman, if you feel you've got too many now and want to make some space.0 -

was €5 so grabbed it thinking I could do that but it turns out it's a black and white one . Still, it'll do nicely in the room to play cds or dvds in the background and the odd plug & play 0 -

You could put a little Pong clone in there, make a mini Pong cab out of it....
Perfect little B&W CRT there for it.
A RP0 to run it, as well as a Vectrex emulator... look the business!!0 -

No, don't do that!
Just buy a console and take your time building a collection.
PS2, Megadrive, Snes, Gameboy, these are all great starter systems, and there not too expensive to find games for them, keeping an eye on the markets, on the likes of Done Deal and Adverts too, as well as Ebay.
Youtube has some great channels offering buyer guides, but often the games mentioned jump in price, simply because of the publicity the Youtube channel affords them, likes of Metal Jesus' channel for example.0 -

You're right though, collection all the way. Both approaches can work in unison though, emulate whatever you wish as a way of identifying games you actually want to buy. I've bought quite a few games after discovering or enjoying them through an emulator first.0 -

Sure, I have a few original consoles too!0 -
