@SaiyanFury: No you're right SEGA never made a power base converter for the model 2. I think by the time the model 2 Genesis came out at least in NA they were done with Master System, heck to begin with Master System was never big in NA like it was in Europe or Japan so not to many people here needed something to play an old library of Master System games on. Honestly I never even heard of the Master System really till the mid 90's and by then we were in the middle of the 16 bit revolution. For awhile I thought the Genesis was the first Sega console.

But back on track there are a few places out there that have made a power base converter for the model 2 it's just me figuring out if I want to just get the Master System itself or get the converter as the converter runs about as much as a Master System.

I remember seeing the Master System for the first time around 1995 or 1996. My little mind was blown,......so wait, "SEGA had a system before the Genesis!!!, it looks old like the NES, how peculiar".

Nintendo: Wii
Sony: PS2, PS3

Current Gen: 3DS, Wii U, PS TV, and Xbone.

I'm pretty happy. It's not a huge collection of consoles, but I have a ton of games (some of them pretty rare). So I can't complain.

I do actually own a PS1, Sega and GBC too.

Sorry but talking about emulation here is against the rules. -Tasuki-

Dunno if they qualify as retro, but I still have my PS2 (which needs replacing), Wii, PSP, PS3 and DS (original version). I used to own a PS1, original GBA and a launch model 360, but got rid of them because they kept breaking.

Technically that doesn't count as a retro system. It's just a clone system the plays roms.

So time to add another console to the ol retro collection. I don't consider this one retro yet, but it's not current gen and it's no longer in production so still...

So I got me an Xbox 360 mainly due to the awesome library and I just missed having one. Felt good going back to some of my favorite games from last gen.

My most precious retro console is SNES but I always wanted to have a Mega Drive as well. The most valuable console I have is a French RGB Nintendo 64. I also have a launch GameCube (with digital port) and a Game Boy Advance SP.

I really don't like the navigation bar of Nintendo Life continuously reappearing while browsing!!

I still have my Nes, Snes, Gameboy. I have my game cube games that I play on the wii. When I had my first child I sold my ps1, ps2, gamecube, DS, N64 and atari jaguar. Also have a PS4, vita, and xb360. Have always wanted a dreamcast and tempted though my wife won't like it. Regret selling my ps2.

I have a Retron 5 hooked up to my TV - it lets me play Mega Drive, NES, SNES, Famicom, and Gameboy/GBA cartridges. It works an absolute treat. I need to look into getting some more games for it, though. I have a bunch of Mega Drive games, but didn't grow up with a NES or SNES, so want to give a few Nintendo classics a try.

I suppose, technically, my answer is I have NO retro systems My Dad has a PS1 and original Xbox, plus my old PS3, and my Mum has a PS2 - all of these are my fault! Well, apart from maybe the Xbox.

The only real retro system I have is my PS2 - I did have a PS1 but it broke, probably becuase I played Stuart Little: The Game too hard or something.

I'm really looking forward to that Nintendo Classic Mini though, it seems really good value since it comes with 60 games and retro controllers. Considering I wasn't even near being alive during that era, I'll definitely pick it up

@get2sammyb: Yeah it was a design flaw that was correcected with the top loader NES. Appearently the blinking gray screen, scrambled title screens etc. wasn't the result of dirt, dust or anything like that it was how the front loader NES w as built. Supposedly the story goes that the NES was always suppose to be a top loader,you can see that with the Famicom but when it was brought over to America, due to the NA video game crash on 83 Nintendo didn't want it to resemble a video game console and even kept away from calling it that hence the name Nintendo Entertainment System and why Rob was packaged with it to give it the look of a toy more then a game system.

Also due to that reasoning the NA NES was designed to look and load like a VCR something that was a big hit in NA at the time to further push the idea that it wasn't a video game system. However due to that it caused damaged to the connectors over time which is why one would get the blinking gray screen of death.
