I had (and still have) an Atari 520ST. I bring it out at Christmas for that nice nostaligia feeling.

As a hardcore nerd I still have (all in their original packaging as well) the 2600 - the one with the wooden front, a 7800, a Jaguar and also an old ST.

My girlfriend wants me to sell them, I claim they are the antiques of the future!

I picked up a fair few old consoles from car boots sales a couple of years back, but the pride of my collection is one of these bad boys which resides in our dining room (bought on ebay):



A mark III goliath jamma cabinet by Electocoin.

It's currently running Shinobi but I've also got original R-Type and Golden Axe boards.

You can rest your pint on top of it and everything! The missus loves it

Bet she does. Just say it's retro or something and she'll love it.
