What system do you own, but neglect?

My gaming PC. Outside of a wild hair to play Civ 6 or Tiny Glade it just sits there and waits for the next time I need to update my resume or do taxes.
 
Switch 2, and I see nothing on the horizon that excites me. Except for the disappointing DKB, I've only used the console to play catalog games (that play fine on the Switch, incidentally).
 
Switch 2. Not much of a fan of switch 1 or 2, so I am going to end up selling my switch 2 now. I really may regret it at some point, sure but I really don't care for their exclusives as much as I thought. I do want to play local co op with my daughter but she just hasn't wanted to play anything. Maybe when she's older than 5 years old.
 
my PS5 has been a YouTube machine beyond maybe 2-3 games i've played on it since whenever the slim model first released.
 
Oh I could go on about the saturn. As for the system itself: It's good-looking, well built and reliable, I like the controller a lot. Save games are done smooth and fast. The ram cart gives it an excellent boost for replicating arcade games. And being disk-based, I can get a bootleg of any game that is just way too expensive to buy. My limit is ~$80 before I say fuck it and get a bootleg. I buy them with a case and a cover and all that. Some have nice printed discs.

Games: Many exclusives, reasonable $ to collect for despite some legendarily expensive games. Importing is fun. The library is a lot more interesting when looking at action and arcade games. PS1 had more of the complex games.

Overall: I don't look as saturn as much like the PS1 rival as I do a Neo-Geo killer, from the collector's point of view. I would love a Neo-Geo collection but starting now would be pretty expensive and of limited use. Besides, KOF and Metal Slug look and feel at home on saturn with a ram cart.

32-bit is my favorite generation, and I didn't get a saturn until they had clearly lost and were ending up in bargain bins, so it's an great way to dip in that still has a lot for me to explore. Solid console, as long as you have a taste for the library and don't hate the idea of playing some inferior versions to ps1 games.
You've made a good case. The ram cart thing sounds interesting, I'll have to keep the system in mind in the future.
 
None. Got rid of all my stuff years ago that I wasn't using. Might try and sell the RAM from my PC though. There was no point before but there might be now.
 
I bought an Asus Xbox ROG against my better judgement. It's a piece of crap and I don't touch it.
Aside from that, my Xbox Series. Just no reason to play. My Gamepass sub finally expired 2 days ago, so I'll be playing it even less now.
 
Switch 2, sold it today and won't pick one up again until they bring a revised model and have at least 3 first party games I want.

Played it 2 or 3 times since release. Dissapointing is an understatement.

Switch 2.
I have it for first party games. So if there is a lull or i skip releases that dont interest me, it sits with dust for a while. Such is life for my Nintendo consoles.
 
The switch was my most neglected console I've ever owned. I played a handful of games on it like both zelda games and a couple others but apart from that it was more used by my parents for ring fit. The PS5 is my least used PS console ever but that's mainly because of time and aging more than anything. I would love to have 6 hour sessions like I used to when I was younger. Aging sucks.
 
PS and Xbox virtually fell of a cliff. Not much interest in upgrading past PS4pro and Series S, but I like these consoles for posterity.

My Switch 2 gets a little use, but it's still close to 50/50 Switch 1 and PC. I still play the GBA and 3DS sometimes as well, but every other old system gets used a few times a year if it's lucky.
 
I had an old 360 in the closet. I thought I was going to get into old games. And I did, for about 6 months. Then it went back in the closet.

I gave it away a couple weeks ago, so I guess I don't own it anymore. Hopefully some kid will get some fun out of it.
 
You've made a good case. The ram cart thing sounds interesting, I'll have to keep the system in mind in the future.

Remember you'd want a third party ram cart with the following features: 1mb and 4mb ram expansions, save backup memory, and software like psuedo-saturn or equivalent. When shopping imports, you can get things like panzer dragoon for a fraction of the price of an english copy.
 
Easily my gaming PC.

Although I've recently installed Watch Dogs 2 on it and have been playing that a bit. I actually game more on my old laptop when traveling.

A close second would be my Series X. But I also don't have very many games for it.

I honestly wonder if I want to get a steam deck or a beefy PC handheld. I am so confused. Talking about not-neglect here but I can't post any threads yet :D.
 
I don't neglect either my S2 or Steam Deck. I use my S2 more, I use my Steam Deck for some online games like Arc Raiders and then stuff like Stronghold. Don't need anything else.

Except for my Steam Deck, I play that shit for at least an hour everyday before bed, Fallout 3 and New Vegas. I love my Deck.
