I am looking for a 50+ inch plasma tv for semi-retro gaming. I have some consoles that I want to hook up and I don't want to deal with smart bullshit and I would like something semi period correct. Does anyone have a recommendation? I remember Pioneer being really nice back in the early 00s but I never knew anyone who had one long term. Is this a terrible idea?

I have a snes, wii, gc, hd modded og xbox, 360, ps3, and an analogue 3d that will exist eventually. So a range of them.

Should be great for the latter half but I'm honestly not sure how good a snes would look on a screen that big. I suspect "not very".

I still have a samsung plasma and it can change resolution down to those lower consoles. Its not perfect but its the most versatile display I own.

Yeah, I am not super worried about the performance of the snes, its really for the later ones.
