It’s nice on rainy nights with the sound on the roof too 😅👌🏼🌧️

my only advice is to keep buying stuff off facebook, maybe hit pawn shops, don't buy anything retail or off ebay, let your collection grow organically from the wild.

Got a mint condition 15” CRT for my retro setup. Next gonna hunt for an HD CRT for PS360 consoles.

Nice setup mate 👌

Thanks buddy!

Hey there! I will finally be starting my retro game collection & room next year and have been looking around YT for ideas. FYI: You have the special first generation PS3. That one came in 40gb & 60gb versions I believe. They were so special because they had PS1 & PS2 backwards compatibility, a muti SD card reader & 4 USB ports. All PS3s afterwards whether fat, slim, or ultra slim had no backwards compatibility, no SD card reader, and only 2 USB ports. Try to keep that room as cool as possible & the console well ventilated as the first generation PS3s would get the YLOD (yellow light of death) because they would overheat. If you ever get the YLOD, you can "reflow" the console, which is basically redoing the solder on the mainboard & reapplying thermal paste. Thats almost always a temporary fix, as I think you can mod it to use a larger fan since the smaller fan in comparison to later models is the cause of the overheating.

Nice setup fella

When/where did you buy the TV from? I sold one like that/a similar model a couple years back

Facebook marketplace! The guy lived about 3 hours away and I committed to the drive haha it was the only trinitron of this model with the matching stand included that I could find. The only other one was 6 hours away. Paid £120 for the tv and unit together

@@Just_TomUK the one I sold was just the Tv, as they didn’t want the stand, but they also used it to build a retro game room, I’m glad they are going to a good place
