    Default Is there a console timeline anywhere?

    Anyone know of a link that has a concise timeline that shows when each console was released?

    I'm sure I'm missing a few systems, but the "majors" are all accounted for here:

    We need to add 2003! I guess you could say it was the year of portables:
    GBA SP
    N-Gage
    Zodiac Tapwave or whatever

    Thanks! That's perfect. I had no concept of which came first since I ignored the console market until I started collecting.

    You can kind of see it near the ceiling on the right. The only ones missing are the Adventurevision (because someone would steal it ) and the 3DO, the system Sean refuses to believe ever existed.

    Wow, I have never heard of an Adventurevision until reading your post....I did a search on google about it and i see what you mean that someone would steal it. How many of them were actually made? I know there were 4 games, how many systems?

    could you list the consoles on that timeline? I want to compare the list I have at the moment with his list so I can make sure mine is complete. Or perhaps just take several photos of the timeline so that I can see all the consoles and compare them.
    one time collector of consoles...I've had them all, literally. I'm now selling everything to raise money for Northwest Harvest, a charity that provides food and clothing for families in need in the Northwestern United States.

    Why would someone deny that the 3DO existed?

    Yeah, it had some bad games -- but it had a GREAT port of Star Control II that is worth enough itself to pick up.

    I can think of one reason. Because you forgot about it and already nailed the Jaguar and PlayStation to the wall
