I pulled out the N64 and first gen xbox and considered doing the same thing, but then the kids and I wound up playing Mario 64 and Burnout 3 instead. It feels great to clean out/up old stuff- but sometimes it feels just as great to revisit it and share it with the next generation. congrats on moving the old game cube games.
Totally agree! If I still had our N64 with Mario 64 I probably would have hooked it up and kept it. I actually was going to part with the GameCube itself as well but my brother wanted it and one of the games to give a try before we sell it. He still hasn't hooked it up to play the game, but now it's collecting dust at his place so no worries for me. hahaha
Funny, those are items I targeted for sale. My original Xbox and PlayStation 1. Both with a bunch of games. PlayStation still has original box and papers. I realized I would never play them again and my nostalgia for any games is greater than any replay-ability. After playing modern games one realizes how much those old games kinda sucked.
Nostalgia does have a lot of monetary value though to some people, so the N64 will probably eventually go.
My nostalgia is still too strong for my Super Nintendo. Don’t think I could ever sell that. Even though my favorite game, one of the best games ever, Zelda: A Link to the Past is available on Switch. I’m always down for a play through of that game.
Maine Coons have this incredible ever expanding mouth, I once had the misfortune to see a pair of sparrows legs disappearing down our late Maine Coons mouth, bird swallowed whole.
Cats and gaming. I understand neither and appreciate both. I have enjoyed watching this thread turn from watch talk to talking about our lives. Our collective similarities run far deeper than watches. And the sharing of that, my friends, makes this middle-aged man smile.

Got a couple of these sitting in my closet. My Leica rangefinder days are over. No new watch, but service bill for 3 this year will hurt like hell.
If you buy a mirrorless digital camera, this adapter will give you autofocus with your M lenses. My photo geek buddies love it.
i adapted them for a while to various Sony E-mount; adapted af was helpful, but notoriously unreliable, even to static subjects. I gave up and went with Sony’s native lens.
