The real obsolete media player.
The year is 1987, Christmas has just pasaed. This baby gets plugged in down in the finished basement. You and your older brother are sitting down on the carpet for the first time to check out this game, Super Mario Bros. Your only gaming experience so far has been the Atari 2600 and C64...
Now this is classy.
My grandma (who lived about a 12 hr. way) had one of these growing up and I always loved it. I was disappointed one year to find that it had been replaced since it quit working.
I'm also reminded of my mother who, no joke, brought one of these home from the landfill. It didn't work, but she gutted it and turned it into a bed for our little dog we had at the time. In hindsight, she's probably very lucky she didn't hurt or poison herself in the process.
I would love to get one of these to use in like a multi-purpose gaming setup. Like use this as the TV stand for the newer TV so I can play newer and older games in the same place.
That dog bed sounds adorable
What a beautiful memory.
If ours wasn't a mess of wires, I'd showoff the huge blocky model we still have!
We use it for holding a slightly more modern TV!
I only see a TV stand without a TV.
