What have you got hooked up?
Okay, gang, I'm new to the forums here. I have paged through and not seen this question asked, so if there's already a thread out there that I'm repeating, go easy with the flamethrowers, okay?
I saw this guy's room online: http://www.vidgame.net/room/room.htm(wow!). We can't all have storehouses like this guy's got, but I'm sure many here have solid collections. So I'd like to know: what systems do you have hooked up?
For my part, I have a neat (well, I think it's clever, anyway, and it sure was cheap) storage "solution" consisting of two sideways milk crates wire-tied together. The top one is divided into two comparments with some dowel rods and a wood/cardboard shelf. This houses all my connected systems, switchable by a combination of a four-way selector and an automatic RF switch. It's not the perfect setup, since stereo sound is defeated, but we just moved here six months ago and most of our stuff is still in boxes, so lighten up, would ya? Okay, I have:
Gamecube
PSOne (well, a PSX, not the compact model)
xBox
NES
Genesis
There's another PSOne (PSX, whatever) connected downstairs and a plug-n-play Konami joystick that runs NES roms in my son's room.
Additionally, we've got a GameGear that was stationed in the living room with an adaptor, used for playing Columns (mostly) and Sonic Chaos; a GameBoy SP belonging to my son, on which he plays a bunch of games; and I've got a GameBoy Color for zoning out on Tetris.
I have another Genesis in its original box, an Atari 7800 in its original box, and a four-switch 2600. These don't get much play, but sometimes we bust out one of the Ataris for fun. My wife is a KaBoom! master.
We don't have a PS2 and I don't really want one. We don't have a Dreamcast but I sure wouldn't mind owning one. We don't have a DS or a PSP and that's fine by me.
How about you? What do you keep hooked up? Have you got anything boxed?

What have you got hooked up?
Welcome to the forum. I've been collecting for years but live in a small apartment, so only a few of my systems are hooked up; right now XBOX, PS2 and GENESIS. I have, boxed, all ataris- 2600, 7800 and 5200. Intellivision one and 2. Super NES, Sega master, SATURN and PSONE. I also have most old 8-bit computers like C=>64, Vic-20, Ti 99 4/a, COCO 3, etc....
Most are in boxes but I can play them when I want. A lot are stored on my huge game "kiosk" of sorts, made out of parts of an old carnival concession stand! I have nearly 1,000 games now.

BigOldCar started a "what systems do ya got" thread! Oh no! C'mon boys, GET EM'!!!!!! HEAD HIM OFF AT THE PASS!!
Just kidding (-:
We're a friendly bunch here. There's just one gentleman who insists on being insulting, usually after you say something nice about Wii.
My setup:
Xbox360, Wii, PS2, and a Karaoke machine.
Some of the setups I see on this thread are pretty tremendous...

I have a Wii, Gamecube/Gameboy Player combo, PS3, and XBOX 360 hooked up right now. Even when I had my old systems, I usually kept them in their original box until I was ready to play them. Then I hooked them up to the TV. When I was done, I would return them to the box.

Ah, yes! The GameBoy player. I forgot all about that thing. It's been attached to my 'Cube since I got it. While I do use it from time to time, I tend to forget that it's there. Then I see a playerless 'Cube and it looks kinda squat, not truly cube-shaped. Yep, neat device.
Off-topic: I wish GameBoy games didn't hold their value so damned well. Everytime I go trolling for used carts, they're like $15-$20. Then I go over to the used xBox section and see xBox games at $9.99. I think, "What gives?" This is down side to backward compatibility.
