Which console do you think will be the first one to go extinct.
Meaning all of its Working units will one day eventually die.
And only emulation will be able to play its exclusives.

Most logical: Atari
>>
>>320163849
Original Xbox
>>
Dreamcast or Atari

Atari because of age and rarity

Dreamcast because of how few units were made
>>
Regular NES consoles, meaning the non-top loading kind.
>>
>>320165158

It's really easy to maintain an Atari though. Even an amateur could do a full repair of any components.
>>
>>320165158
But Atari has incredibly simple tech.
What makes you think it can actually break eventual.
And is not easy to repair.

Most CRT TVs still work today.
Hell even older BW ones work.
While you usually have to get a new LCD monitor at lest once every 10 years.
Although maybe i jut had bad luck.

I'm worried we''ll never get Xbox emulation and it will disappear from the face of the earth. I have mine but I don't know how long it will last.

Same goes for Dreamcast but I don't even have mine anymore. Atari is old but easy to fix, I don't think it will be as bad a loss as all it's games are also emulatable in some way or another

>>320165535
rarity of complainants

Plus I think we're talking about the natural life cycle of them, repairs don't count
>>
>>320165454
T be fair.
The Chinese have mass produced Clones.
And these clones are basically just NES technology.
The model number is relevant whats matters is the ability for a device to play the media flawlessly.

Read the OP

If you can repair a broken console, then it isn't dead.
>>
There will probably be working examples available in museums or something for a long, long time.
>>
>>320165535
>>320165595
I was taking it like >>320165451 said
Because it's so old and really isn't sold anywhere except online anymore
OP asked which will go extinct first and in this case, the Atari is the most rare one of them, leading it to probably be the first one to go
>>
>>320165896
Musem? More like the mancave of some neckbeard now very old.
>>
>>320165896

Unless the fucking sea-otters destroy them. Damn their science!!!
