    Sony TV's specially Trinitron, had to be one of the best brands of CTR tv's ever, not to mention they are very durable. I still have one from 1998. +20 years and still good quality for retro-gaming. I remember around 2009 I bougth a Philco flat CTR TV, the display quality was not that nice, and later become shit in just 7 years, and finally broke in 2018, while the Trinitron still alive.

  • @Konic_and_Snuckles
    @Konic_and_Snuckles Před 2 lety +1

    Hey Erin, nobody here. I just discovered your channel after initially searching for Vectrex content. First off that Vectrex video was stellar, and this room tour episode? AMAZING. I feel it should have WAY more views than your "power pad " upload, which was hilarious but I think we all know why that video did better numbers... It's not a bad thing, but it highlights how fundamentally male-dominated gaming culture still is, especially retro gaming.
    Which is partly why I like seeing content like this room tour. It reminds me that retro gaming isn't just a boys club; seeing genuine female representation within this community is inspiring. To be clear, I say "partly" because the reason your game room is so flipping amazing is not simply because you are a woman. Rather, it's the passion and knowledge you exude. Your room and livelihood speaks for itself: the coveted BVM, the curated game library, the nod to obscure things like Tiger electronics, the Vectrex, the vintage toys. They're not sealed away like museum exhibits, they are ready to be taken off the shelf and played with, used, talked about, etc. You are the definition of authentic. You visibly come alive when sharing these prized possessions with all of us. Honestly, you come across as an enthusiast first and a content creator second. Not the other way around (which is a regrettable trend I've observed in recent years).
    It's also worth mentioning that seeing young millennial representation in the retro scene = chef's kiss. You look about my age (I was born in 1988) and I don't know about you, but nothing makes me feel older than my 26 year old colleagues asking me what a Sega Genesis is. I used to think folks my own age would be better company to keep, but most of them simply don't care about or remember the games we played when we were kids, much less games our parents played. They prefer their Xboxes and PlayStations. The only people IRL I've been able to talk to about classics like Tempest and Pole Position are 40-50 year old men I meet off Craigslist while hunting for CRTs with good geometry. It's disheartening.
    So yeah, thank you for existing and reminding me that I'm not oddball obsessing over games released before I was even born. I've only watched three of your videos so far but I have a feeling that number will go up. I'm definitely subscribing.

      Hey! Thank you very much for taking the time to write this comment and I'm so glad to hear you liked my Vectrex video! I just like making videos about things I'm interested in (even if I'm not an expert, ha,) in the hopes that someone can find it fun and relatable. And the world would be a better place if you could randomly talk to people IRL about Pole Position and Tempest, but at least we have the internet!

    @hhectorlector Před 3 lety +2

    2:08 I'm sure you figured out the shelf situation by now but if not then you can buy the pegs/ pins/ studs for your shelf at home depot or any hardware store. then look up shelves you can buy in the dimensions you want. Ikea will probably have some since these shelves already have holes for those shelf pegs.

    That is a great tour of your room! It is very cool that you have a collection of a lot of different generations of video game consoles and games. It is like a mini museum of video games. I grew up with the Atari 2600 and recognize a lot of the older consoles you have but never played some of them like the Vectrex because it was very expensive back then and today it is even more expensive. Vector graphics games are still great to play.

      ​@ErinPlays Hello there, I wanted to ask you a few questions about connecting consoles. What power surge protectors do you recommend for modern consoles such as PS5, XBOX Series X, Nintendo Switch? What power surge protectors you recommend for NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, XBOX, XBOX 360, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, and GameCube consoles? Please recommend a few and any that you actually use for modern and older consoles and how many can be connected? Do you have advice how many can be connect and what power surges or power surge you use or know and the max that can be connected and that you can please recommend? If there are lights that go out in the home for any reason or for thunderstorms, what is safe to use to not have problems with consoles? Thanks.

    If you haven't yet solved the shelf division, I have some potentially useful, though incomplete info. I don't know their names, as my wife already owned them when we started dating, but Ikea makes (made?) metal shelf inserts for those bookcases. They are sort of like a very small table with very stable legs that is half the height of the cube. I have my various systems set up two to a cube as a result.

    I bought a SNES Classic awhile back and paid a kid on Craigslist to add games to it.. From that point on, I got absolutely hooked back on videogames..
    I have all the newer game systems and tons of games I barely played.. I have games I haven't even opened.. I was buying the newer consoles for decorations
    I actually put in a lot of hours into my SNES Classic and I got a PS1 Classic fairly recently.. I bought a chip that added like 200 PS1 games to it and I've been hooked on that...
    I very much prefer the videogames I grew up playing over the new ones..
    I'm currently playing Parasite Eve.. That was a game I wanted to play but missed
