My original Atari 2600 and games I got as a kid.

EDIT: I am pretty sure my stove is from the 60's but it came with the house I bought in 2015, so I am not sure it counts.

My mom gave me her Atari 2600 that she had when she was a kid. It still works. It even still had all the cables and games stored with it at her parents' house when they passed.

Mine is a sears video arcade.

I have an original 2600 too that my exes dad bought for her when she was little but it doesn’t work any more.

My console collection is stupid at this point. I have like 15 Sega Genesis consoles and I’m too sorry to sell them.
