You don't actually need the latest, greatest, version of a computer game or video game console. The art of video game design is to make a game that is wonderfully playable and compelling on the platform where it is played. For instance, I loved Chuck Yeager's Air Combat when I had a 486 computer in the early 90s. Unfortunately, I haven't found a combat flight sim that I've liked as much since then. The game had a wonderful balance of realism and playability that worked.
It's the same with console games. If you find a video game console that you like and games, then you should be happy. I enjoy retro gaming. That is video gaming on absolete consoles like the Playstation, Sega Genesis, Super Nintendo, and Atari. It's just plain fun. If you agree, check out Retro Gaming Revolution Forum. You'll find it full of interesting discussions of vintage video game and computing platforms.
If you adapt yesterdays technology, you can save a lot of money over the prices of modern game systems.
