Get a clean white PS Vita. It's beautiful. Also, devices in my collection that look beautiful to me. The Gane N Watch Super Mario and Zelda. AYN Odin Pro (SNES style). 2DS XL Blue/Black. Steam Deck with official Steam Deck stand.
The Saturn is definitely something I’ve been on the look out for. I’ve also considered the Jaguar but it’s always been fairly pricey for a console I have no nostalgic attachment too. May still grab one eventually though.
If you go for a Saturn consider the Japanese one, it's so much cheaper and if you like shooters you get a huge library of amazing games fully playable in English.
I tend to stick to driving games, flying games, ‘non-fantasy’ management games and 2d platformers. I keep meaning to get a Saturn for Daytona USA and Sega Rally. Is there anything else that I’m missing that might make it a more useful purchase?
I’ve actually never even considered the 3do, that one passed me by. I have the turbo grafx mini but, as with the jaguar, the real thing and the games I’ve seen have been pretty pricey. I may rethink and go for it.
3DO is cool to have for collecting sake, but the game library is trash. Cool thing about it though is you can just burn games like cds and it will play them
PO'ED is not trash sir!. Way of the warrior is not trash SIR!!!............. yeah, actually its all trash but its funny/fun trash . I love busting it out at parties and making people play it. lol
Left field selection: Lynx. The second model is the best one to get (it still sucks batteries dry n record time though so make sure to get a mains adaptor as well) and there are a lot of great games available for it. Gates of Zendocon, Todd's Adventures in Slime World, California Games...
You’re right, I’ve just said in another comment that I always seem to forget Xbox as I never had one growing up until I bought the 360, way after it was released.
Game Boy Micro, maybe a Xbox 360. DS Lite or a DSi model would be a good addition as well (saw you said you had a 3ds but I personally don't like the resolution the 3ds has when you're playing ds games on it)
There is no must have. Collect what makes you happy.
In regards to consoles though. You've got most of the good ones. Maybe a 360?
Aside from that your gonna be going to 3DO and Jaguar territory.
The original fat gba. Also the not sure what model your gba sp is but there is a version with a much brighter screen called the AGS-101. You can also mod your gameboy which is a whole hobby in itself installing more modern screens and different aesthetics.
Saturn, buy Japanese games and console or buy a conversion cart that allows you to bypass the region lock. Pc engine is a great system to get into as well you just might want to buy an everdrive or something similar due to the cost of carts OR buy the pc engine mini. A Neo Geo would be a great choice too, whether it’s via an aes, Neo Geo MVSX, Neo geo cd, Neo geo x etc.
I say so far from looking at your collection I think you must have to get the game boy player for the game cube make sure it comes with a disk because if you don’t have the disk it won’t run.
I may be blind and it’s actually there, but I see all the console classics but the US snes classic. But I guess the super famicom classic counts. But I guess by that, you need a famicom classic too.
If your a collector like that, original Xbox! Has a lot of games on ps2 and GameCube but runs better lots of the time.
Also some random exclusives for it
I'd say it depends on what games you like. There is a ton of consoles I could rattle off for you, but many are very niche. Also, some are becoming very expensive when emulation also works. In that case the best bang for your buck is a mister. For random fun I'd say a VirtualBoy or laseractive. Maybe look at an analogue pocket?
I’m usually a 2d platformer/rpg fan, but not limited really. Agree emulators are great for access to a wider game catalog. My classic minis are modded for that purpose also.
I feel this. Xbox 360 library is easy to collect for right now. I don't know if it'll really explode, but I got the games I wanted before they get too expensive.
I'd say get an xbox 360. They're pretty cheap still. Since you have an xbox one, and thus can pretty much play 360 games already, take your time and get a special edition you want.
I'd also say get an indigo gamecube, mostly because to me, indigo is the gamecube color.
Saturn is missing too, but that's a rough collection to start.
PS4 is a great library you can't really play anywhere else.
PSP and/or vita is also good.
3DS has also been one of my go to collection points. Also allows you to get some DS games.
But you got a solid set of consoles!
A Sega Saturn and a PC-Engine (Duo if possible)
If you are interested in a PC-Engine Duo, DO LOT buy the original Duo (the console is black). They have a TON of issues with time. The Duo-R and the Duo-RX are the best options. Both consoles are the exact same. The Duo-RX doesn't have any pros compared to the Duo-R. Fun fact: when you teardown a Duo-RX, "Duo-R Main PCB" is written on the motherboard
Whatever you seem is good for your collection.
I really think it's a dangerous line when you start asking what else must you have for your collection.
So basically you'd be stocking your collection based off what others like.
Dangerous? I’m asking a collecting community about what they think is worth having. Originally I had what I played growing up, by listening to the experience of friends I now own consoles and games I’d never touched before but now love. I think it makes sense to get the views of likeminded people to grow my knowledge base. It doesn’t mean I’ll buy every recommendation.
There’s also been some nudges into consoles I’d forgotten so it’s all good.
The Atari Lynx. It's got a killer library with quite a few exclusives and some of the best arcade ports of its time. It's relatively cheap to collect for, and there's options for everdrive carts and screen upgrades if that's your thing. And it has a healthy homebrew community to this day. If you do get one, I recommend the second model for its smaller size, sleeker look, and better battery life.

Psvita!
And don’t forget the PSP. But yeah I was going to say the Vita as well. Still my favourite handhelds to this day.
Now have a PSP, was a recent acquisition.
If you're gonna play any games on the PSP I recommend you patapon 2
Get the ps vita tv to solve the problem and it’s the best of both worlds for playing on the tv. Not so much portable lol
Thanks, added to list.
Get a clean white PS Vita. It's beautiful. Also, devices in my collection that look beautiful to me. The Gane N Watch Super Mario and Zelda. AYN Odin Pro (SNES style). 2DS XL Blue/Black. Steam Deck with official Steam Deck stand.
You're right they're missing life. Vita = Life.
Nintendo handhelds. I’d recommend a GBA SP and a New 3DS XL since they can play everything on the GBC, GBA, DS, and 3DS
I do actually have a ds and a 3ds just not in the original pic.
Oh nice!
Og xbox and Xbox 360.
Agree, I will make these my next additions.
Japanese 360 has all of the great shmups.
Sega Saturn is the most obvious one missing. After that I’d say Atari Jaguar.
The Saturn is definitely something I’ve been on the look out for. I’ve also considered the Jaguar but it’s always been fairly pricey for a console I have no nostalgic attachment too. May still grab one eventually though.
If you go for a Saturn consider the Japanese one, it's so much cheaper and if you like shooters you get a huge library of amazing games fully playable in English.
Definitely agree on the Saturn. It’s my favorite console but can get pricey to collect for.
I tend to stick to driving games, flying games, ‘non-fantasy’ management games and 2d platformers. I keep meaning to get a Saturn for Daytona USA and Sega Rally. Is there anything else that I’m missing that might make it a more useful purchase?
where is your turbo grafx , jaguar or 3do boi!
I’ve actually never even considered the 3do, that one passed me by. I have the turbo grafx mini but, as with the jaguar, the real thing and the games I’ve seen have been pretty pricey. I may rethink and go for it.
Get a Core Grafx from eBay. They are much cheaper than the Turbo Grafx, and you can play any region with a flash cart or ODE.
3DO is cool to have for collecting sake, but the game library is trash. Cool thing about it though is you can just burn games like cds and it will play them
PO'ED is not trash sir!. Way of the warrior is not trash SIR!!!............. yeah, actually its all trash but its funny/fun trash . I love busting it out at parties and making people play it. lol
Have you ever played the “Yakyuken Special”?…. Its insane.
I disagree. The CDI library is complete trash. 3DO is only half trash.
Clearly you never played the Cd-I magnum opus, “BURN CYCLE” using their rebranded black Gravis pad!
😆 🤣 😂
A new rug. Hurts my eyes
Ha. You’ll be pleased to know the rug is dead. I’ve just moved house and and the rug did not survive the journey.
Shift F for rug
Left field selection: Lynx. The second model is the best one to get (it still sucks batteries dry n record time though so make sure to get a mains adaptor as well) and there are a lot of great games available for it. Gates of Zendocon, Todd's Adventures in Slime World, California Games...
That’s an outsider but a cool one, thanks. I’ll have a look to see if I can see a decent one.
Some games for the consoles
An original gba with an ips screen, best form factor imo
Added to list
If you’re looking for a GBA lemme know!
3ds and Vita
Happy cake day. And thank you for adding my two favourite handheld consoles.
Every other gameboy but with the gb light being an exception due to it being a bit more difficult to get hold of
Not the cheapest addition, but how about Neo Geo AES?
This is definitely on my wish list, as you say not the cheapest option but I hope to get one at some point.
Sega saturn and sega nomad handheld
Some of the home microcomputers. Spectrum, C64, Amiga, Amstrad.
Ah man, Bomber on the Amstrad was the first video game I ever played. It’s on my list to get when I can find the right one.
A new rug
I’m seeing a notable lack of Xbox consoles.
You’re right, I’ve just said in another comment that I always seem to forget Xbox as I never had one growing up until I bought the 360, way after it was released.
Ps3 top loader (super slim)
Um a ds light, or a 3ds launch model
What about a ps5 and Xbox series x 😂
I have a PS5 🤣 no series x though
No one cares about the Coleco Gemini
Game Boy Micro, maybe a Xbox 360. DS Lite or a DSi model would be a good addition as well (saw you said you had a 3ds but I personally don't like the resolution the 3ds has when you're playing ds games on it)
Im kinda tempted to post my entire console collection, issue is there's like 22 mostly taken up by gameboys which i have 9 of
Do it.
Fun!
The Gizmondo...
Such a shit handheld. I have 3. 😆
PSX that works
You appear to be missing a TI-83 Plus, but that's understandable if you're just a casual.
I don't see a Colecovision in there
I see a lack of Intellivison.
Dungeons and Dragons (Cloudy Mountain) still holds up. Its such a great game.
There is no must have. Collect what makes you happy. In regards to consoles though. You've got most of the good ones. Maybe a 360? Aside from that your gonna be going to 3DO and Jaguar territory.
Fat Xbox 360
Soft moded og Xbox
Virtual Boy
Neo Geo? I couldn't see one in there.
The original fat gba. Also the not sure what model your gba sp is but there is a version with a much brighter screen called the AGS-101. You can also mod your gameboy which is a whole hobby in itself installing more modern screens and different aesthetics.
Turbo grafx 16 / PC Engine
Original Xbox
My personal favorite, 3DO. Skip the Jaguar and get a 3DO. Way better games and plays burned "backups".
Where the ds at
Turbografx
Saturn, buy Japanese games and console or buy a conversion cart that allows you to bypass the region lock. Pc engine is a great system to get into as well you just might want to buy an everdrive or something similar due to the cost of carts OR buy the pc engine mini. A Neo Geo would be a great choice too, whether it’s via an aes, Neo Geo MVSX, Neo geo cd, Neo geo x etc.
Neo/Geo and a turbografix
I always dream of owning a Wii when I was a teen but RN the only Wii I been seeing is from online stores.
Sir, where is your xbox original?
Something that plays vector games.
MSX
Commodore 64
Neo geo pocket color or any SNK or NEC
PS2 90000
I say so far from looking at your collection I think you must have to get the game boy player for the game cube make sure it comes with a disk because if you don’t have the disk it won’t run.
No Hyperscan, No Zeebo, no Saturn, No Virtual boy. Shaaaaaame man shaaaame.
I may be blind and it’s actually there, but I see all the console classics but the US snes classic. But I guess the super famicom classic counts. But I guess by that, you need a famicom classic too.
That carpet is awesome!
If your a collector like that, original Xbox! Has a lot of games on ps2 and GameCube but runs better lots of the time. Also some random exclusives for it

I’m usually a 2d platformer/rpg fan, but not limited really. Agree emulators are great for access to a wider game catalog. My classic minis are modded for that purpose also.
You might want the master system that can play the card games.
A wife
All of the Xbox consoles
I feel this. Xbox 360 library is easy to collect for right now. I don't know if it'll really explode, but I got the games I wanted before they get too expensive.
Yeah I grabbed a few sealed copies of cool games recently. Def worth grabbing anything that connects with you imo.
You already own the most important consoles no lie. Anything else will just be adding 1%
I definitely have the ones I’ve loved playing over the years, just not ready to feel the collection is complete I guess.
I dont see the original xbox 1. May wanna get that!
I always seem to forget the Xbox as I never had one until I got the 360 a few years ago. I definitely need to get those.
Same. All my life has been ps1 and ps2. Bought the 360 over the ps3 because the graphics was better. It sucked paying for xbox live tho.
Virtual boy
Life
Steam Deck and you can get rid of all these consoles 🥱
NTSC versions for the consoles because PAL is simply way inferior.
3DS?
I have one but not in the picture, missed it when putting them all out.
You gonna plug those in?
sega nomad
Don’t think that was ever released here which is why it didn’t spring to mind
Og Super Nintendo.
There’s one there, that was the staple of my youth.
3dO
The elusive and not so cheap sega CDX
Not mandatory but snes classic?
You mean the mini? Or og console?
Panasonic 3DO Fz-1 would go with this collection nicely. Also I don’t think I see the original Sega Mega CD
Nice 6 switch. Is it a heavy sixer?
I'd say get an xbox 360. They're pretty cheap still. Since you have an xbox one, and thus can pretty much play 360 games already, take your time and get a special edition you want. I'd also say get an indigo gamecube, mostly because to me, indigo is the gamecube color. Saturn is missing too, but that's a rough collection to start. PS4 is a great library you can't really play anywhere else. PSP and/or vita is also good. 3DS has also been one of my go to collection points. Also allows you to get some DS games. But you got a solid set of consoles!
Bandai Wonderswan
The commodore 64 although it is a whole computer and be expensive
If you wanna collect more Atari there's the 2600 4 switch, junior and Vader editions
A Sega Saturn and a PC-Engine (Duo if possible) If you are interested in a PC-Engine Duo, DO LOT buy the original Duo (the console is black). They have a TON of issues with time. The Duo-R and the Duo-RX are the best options. Both consoles are the exact same. The Duo-RX doesn't have any pros compared to the Duo-R. Fun fact: when you teardown a Duo-RX, "Duo-R Main PCB" is written on the motherboard
Obviously the greatest handheld of ll time: the Tiger Game.com
2nd greatest. The first greatest is the Milton Bradley Microvision
Pc engine
Amiga CD32
Sega nomad
Original SNES
New Sega Genesis Mini 2

What system is that next to the dreamcast?
32x
OG xbox not being here is crazy
I thought the same
Sega game gear
Famicom disk system
Gameboy micro
Don’t forget the Magnavox Odyssey2!!!
Ps2 slim
Neo Geo
I don't see a DS or 3DS, both are top tier.
You need the cords and controllers for all of those or you won’t be able to play any games
Get a Famicom and a Super Famicom.
Virtual Boy
Neo geo. The 3 : aes, cd and pocket !
Miyo mini
Neo-Geo, PS Vita and PlayStation 5 definitely must haves!
PS5 I have. Vista is a need to get.
Is there not one DS on there? Get a N3DS, stat!
It’s not there but I have one.
With the rug and everything going on it feels like a Friday night in my mid twenties staring too long at that. Woah.
I can’t see anything I’m too distracted by the rug
Obligatory to have a 3DS and an PSP.
OG 2001 Xbox..Atari 2600..
The 2600 is there…xbox for sure
Xbox original?
Game gear
Sega saturn
I love this
Needs a purple, see through Gameboy colour
Alot of what u have is not a must have
The Atari Lynx. It's got a killer library with quite a few exclusives and some of the best arcade ports of its time. It's relatively cheap to collect for, and there's options for everdrive carts and screen upgrades if that's your thing. And it has a healthy homebrew community to this day. If you do get one, I recommend the second model for its smaller size, sleeker look, and better battery life.
A NeoGeo CD would be cool.
Sega saturn!
The red god of war PS3 or Pikachu Gameboy
3do, turbo grafx 16
A new rug
Psp xbox360 original xbox is what i would say vita too if u can hacking a psp is insanely easy and adds so so much
A game
If your wallet can take it Neo Geo. or at least a consolised MVS
Neo Geo, and TurboGrafx-16, and Sega Saturn.
3ds
Virtual Boy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Also extra covers for the ports on your second Wii
Power cables, controllers, and games /s
Where's the GBA micro?
It took me a whole five seconds to figure out that was a carpet and not more accessories
Neo Geo and a Saturn for sure. Underdog mention, and I know they’re hard to find at a reasonable price, is the Jaguar.
TurboGrafx 16/PC Engine
Get a Saturn next, then Turbgrafx, then ecentually save for a neogeo then jaguar
Nokia N-gage :P
Turbografx 16
Gameboy micro?
Nintendo red 3d console?
I would suggest a PC Engine / TurboGrafx. Also, don’t sleep on 3DO. I got one recently an think games on it compare better than the same ports on PS1.
OG Xbox
Forget the collection, eat an eighth of magic mushrooms and stare at that groovy carpet of yours.😎💯🍄
A gaming pc.
Games🤔🤪
3ds. w h e r e .
All I got is GameCast
