Im looking for a cheap console to get and collect for that dosent cost a arm/leg but also isint boring with the game section. I have a few consoles and handhelds from when i was a kid but i want something that i can stick with and not let collect dust?
What would you suggest or advise and why so?


I hear you. Oddly enough, I seem to have gone the other way - I have more fun ekeing out the last erg of performance than actually playing sometimes.
Its a sickness, I admit :).
The tinkering mentality (roused from the dead thanks to emulation and retro gaming) has now led me into adjacent areas, like self host local LLM, media servers, coding etc. I credit the revival entirely to the delightful Wii (and the gentle introduction to modding provided by all the guides).
It really is a great system.
