Do you own multiples of one console?

Post by Mendoza »

I recently got a Fat PS2 so i could run HDloader and play imports, and i realized its the first time ive owned two of the same system at the same time.

How many of you have owned multiples of system and why?

What system have you owned the most of at any one time?

While I don't have multiples, I do plan on having every version of every Sega system eventually. Why? Other than sentimental and collecting value, I'm actually not sure. XD

I wouldn't mind having another Dreamcast though. That system is what gets the most hours from me and I wouldn't mind having a backup just incase this one decides to die on me one day.

I have both an older, barely working 'fat' ps1 and the slimmer, smaller version.

I just own two Genesis consoles: a model 1 and model 2. I had already owned a model 2 and upgraded to an HDG model one 1 at some point. I do own two PS1s, but unfortunately neither of them function any longer.

Nice to have duplicate posts too in case anything craps out. :lol:

I have quite a number of Genesis, though sold a few off. I have probably an unhealthy number of PS1 machines due to having a bunch given to me. I have multiples of a lot of my consoles actually.
