How Many of You Are In the 40+ Systems Club?

[lurpak]

but the OPs question didnt say gaming systems, he said systems ?

so surely this would include computer systems, especialy since the principle product of these systems were games, the likes of amiga's although caperble were games machines principly.
if you take the example that out of what, 100,000 software titles for an amiga 99% of them would be games, wheras the 60 or so available for the odyssey2 (no doubt classed a gaming system), 2 programming, 6-7 educational making it only 85% a gaming system...far less than the amiga, Ti99, etc.

taking the other extreem, are todays consoles games machine or multi-media devices, most play films, music, internet communications, gaming is just one facet of thier use the same as computers of thier day.
An XBOX is principaly a games PC.

(all the above figures were 99% inacurate)..but a realistic guess.


I agree with the variations on principly the same unit though
eg..megadrive 1 & 2, playstaion, psone etc.

you have to allow for specific games backward compatiblity though, like playing playstationstandard games on a playstation 2
you couldnt rule out a playstationif you had an PS2 as well, since it cant play PS2 games.

I still say revisions don't count as separate systems. The Genesis 1, 2, and 3 do not count as three systems. Nor do the TurboDuo and the TurboCD, etc... the SNES 1 and 2...

I also say that computers, things designed to be computers and not specifically gaming systems, don't count. That would be the TRS, TI99, C64, Atari computer line, etc.

amen, brother

But if you use the categories in the DP guides, that levels the playing field for all involved. I don't see the point in counting things like Amigas, Atari PCs, or even regular PCs (my list goes up a bit if I do). But the C64, Vic20, TI99, etc are all listed in the dp guides as systems, so they should be counted.

I do agree on the revisions though. If I did that, I'd have about 10 lines for just gameboys!!

I was the person who started this topic.
My original question was how many unique systems.

a nes toaster and a nes top loader counts as 1

old cartridge systems like c64 and TI 99 do count.

I am still not sure if I can include my gameaxe, nomad and turbo express


I just bought a Nintendo DS and a PSP so I am getting close to 50

Twitami WELL over half of those shouldn't even be counted. I can't believe you counted the Mega Man PET!

Anyways, with the purchase of the PSP, I am now in the 40 systems club. YEAH! WHOOOOO!

[Steve W]

I'm kickstarting this old thread again to list mine. I'm probably forgetting one or two. And I'm not putting computers in, since those blur the line a bit. Even though a lot of them were cartridge based, and most of them I only bought to play games on, I still don't feel right about adding them on. Or dedicated consoles like pong machines.

I might have gone a bit overboard listing the TurboGrafx-16 and the TurboDuo, but I've always thought that the Duo was a technological upgrade to the original TurboGrafx-16, and not just an all-in-one CD console unit. There are Super CD games that can't be played on a TurboGrafx-16 CD-ROM drive, after all. That's what I'm assuming, of course, since I bought my TurboDuo bare and I still don't have the bits to make it work. And I counted the Genesis, the Sega CD, and the 32X as different machines, considering that hardware-wise they are different, even though they're also dependent upon each other.

And for the record, I absolutely hate when people list revisions of the same hardware as different machines. All Atari 2600 console variations only count as one, etc.

[Nebagram]

40 in total but only 35 unique. :-| Might make it to 40 by the end of the year if my employment situation improves.

1. Atari 2600 (CX2600-A)
2. Atari 5200 (4-Port)
3. Sega Genesis (one says high definition graphics and has a license screen, the other doesnt)
4. Game Boy (gray)
5. Game Boy Pocket (yellow)
6. Game Boy Color (teal, grape, and 2 atomic purples)
7. Game Boy Advance (arctic and purple)
8. Game Boy Advance SP (cobalt, platinum, surfblue)
9. Nintendo DS (platinum)
10. Nintendo e-Reader
11. Game Boy Micro (silver)
12. TRS-80 Color Computer 2 (16k and 64k)
13. Nintendo NES (front loader)
14. Super NES (unyellowed plastic)
15. Nintendo 64 (black)
16. GameCube (indigo, platinum)
17. PlayStation (PlayStation, PSOne)
18. PlayStation 2 (2 frontloaders, but one has an issue reading CD format discs, perhaps you could help out)
19. Wii
20. Atari Flashback 2

I think they should be listed as they are advertised. For example, the Game Boy and Game Boy Pocket were advertised as two seperate systems, and they were radically different in terms of hardware, but the heavy sixer, light sixer, and CX2600-A werent, albeit asthetically.

the likes of master system 1 and master system 2 would not be unique

Although model 1 can play the Sega Cards, and the second model doesn't

[otaku]

wow. I've owned around 20 or so consoles (some duplicates) crazy some of you have 40 individual consoles!
