Nice, I ought to get a Turbo Grafx soon, then again i'm looking for a few other things. Notably Genesis addons, SCHP 1001 PS1, and a CECHA01 PS3. Besides that I have pretty much the first/"best" model of each console.

Oh god, get a mechanical switch box or something.

Also a Colecovision. That system is ripe for modding. The video IC outputs component natively, just needs to be amped. Also 5V memory mod and you can run the whole thing on 5V, disable the 12V input and the RF unit never powers up (ie: no interference in the component signal).

Only the PS2, and that's doing component. I do the same with the WIi; Emulators and shit.

Once I get some money, I'm modding the 64 for RGB, and ordering a SCART cable for it and the SNES. Might look into getting a PAL Gamecube at some point, as NTSC Gamecube will only do S-Video out it's multi-out, and I'm not dropping $100+ on it's component cable.

And about ebay, keep an eye out; Occasionally one will get overlooked, or a medical supply company will list them for a reasonable price.

I got mine for $50(plus $40 for shipping), which I talked down from $90. The anon that pointed me in the direction of the auction got his for $60.

There are also a few rebranded models that have the exact same guts, just a different shell.
One example is the Olympus OEV-203. It's the same one I have, just a different name.

Other options would be to replace his shelving set up to make room for something like this next to his LCD. Should be able to fit at least 4 of the SD consoles inside the stand. Then it just makes him decide how much he likes displaying his games to get even more room out of his....room.
