       o Must primarily be a gaming device

       o Utilizes interchangeable media (cartridge, CD, etc.)

       o Requires an external display device (or has an
          included sprite\vector driven monitor)

To be listed as a Main Console and merit a unique item in the menu system here, a gaming device must conform to all of the following:

       o Have a unique, original core hardware technology

       o Utilize a proprietary game programming language


Yes, there are some exceptions to the guidelines listed above, specifically in Main Consoles (menu item) headings.  Criterion had to be set as to what would be initially included within the site.


Using these guidelines, handhelds, pongs and computer hybrids are not included, though may be sometime down the road in their own sections.  Also, hardware designed specifically for children will be listed in a separate section in the future.

Details and pictures of additional models\clones of the Main Consoles are listed within their respective 'parent' page (i.e. the Sega Genesis 2 is listed under the main Sega Genesis page).  Hardware package variations are not focused on here.  We love the Limited Edition releases, but that is not the purpose of this site.  To provide an objective viewpoint and information on the hardware that powers the games we all love is the driver here, for both the hardware collector and gamer alike. 

This site will always be provided free for all gamers and collectors.  Our friends do the same.  So....
