My grandmother had one of these sets too. XP I didn't get to hook my Super Nintendo to it when I was visiting unfortunately, it was either always being used by my Grandfather, or my Grandmother to watch her "stories". Super Nintendo got hooked up to the RF only 13" TV in the guest bedroom, where I would spend most of my time while being baby sat during the summer, or on days where my folks still had to work but we didn't have any school.

Very nice crt

I loved my vectrex , it was in the loft at my mums , I thought it was still there , but apparently it was thrown out in the 90s , I only had the built in mindstorm game and an American football game that I had no idea how to play because I'm English. having an arcade in your house was amazing

As a kid I used to sit up close to the tv and put my feet under those two handles at the bottom of the tv. Don't know why but just did.

My grandparents had a RCA console TV, sadly by time they passed in 2015 the color was completely faded. Someday I am hoping to find an RCA console TV like this, with the composite ports, so I can hook up some retro video game consoles and perhaps a VCR. The raspberry pi video playback has me intrigued and I will be following to see how that goes.

The concept behind the console TV was to have it look like a piece of furniture. Old console radios looked like that too.

3:55 Any good neighbor has a copy of Burnout Revenge for the PS2

That idea with the raspberry pi is pretty awesome

I always wished they would have brought Star Wars and Battlezone to the Vectrex.

I think this looks better than anything out there right now seriously its amazing

Great job on the video!

Thank you so much for saying "home in" and not "hone in" as is so commonly said today (yeah I know language evolves it's just refreshing to hear the original expression once in a while)

Probably my favorite too...

Damn forgot all about Starcastle....🔥

I’m only one video in on your channel, but as a fellow CRT collector, I’m convinced this is about to become my favourite channel. Astounding collection and it’s great to see them kept in great care by someone so passionate for this tech! Keep it up!!!

Beautiful tv console

Do you use a plastic`s conditioner. Old plastic is thirsty and usually requires multiple passes before it stops soaking in.

On later ports it's absolutely incredible what modern developers can do on classic hardware simply because we have a much greater understanding of programming and exploiting what's there. Imagine for a moment that this Star Castle release was available back in the 80's! It would've changed EVERYTHING. The same is true of so many games written for classic hardware today.

A Crush of Lucifer???? You have my interest. I'd bore you with tales of my Vectrex which I still have in the box. I need to reCAP it. I have most of the original titles, extra controller, dust cover, etc. All from my childhood. Received it for Christmas one year, never expecting it. I agree unequivocally that it is the best console of its day.

Finding a stereo at 24 inch is rather difficult usually they are mono

can you show us that mini crt at the left of the screen at 1:18?

It a strong TV. I remember in my socks and underwater dancing on top of one of these TVs. The TV Top never broke or cracked but I surely had one hell of a hangover the next day.

Great vid!

Buff the top of that TV until it looks like glass.

I miss when American companies made cars and not just crossovers and trucks.

My great grand father had one with a radio and record player on it. He used it till like 2012 until it just couldn't be fixed anymore. He was sad when he went to the flat screen after lol. (He called it "the flat screen") He also had a really old smaller black snd white tv thst was in a wooden standing cabinet. It unfortunately died when I was like 10 as it got hit during a storm. But he kept it in the den for decoration.

Yup my great grandparents had one of these 😂

The antique TV console cabinet is a cool throw back I've was thinking of finding on broken and pulling CRT out and modding the wood console cabinet by figuring away to put a smart led television inside the cabinet 🤔

Sony made some impressive tvs

Beautiful console

I wish we still had the floor model,the tvs we have now are so ugly

Please, do a video about your sony trinitron 1310or🙏

You have so many beautiful CRT'S😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤

i have the 32 inch version of this model. it was beat up and was missing the door but it did come with a remote. for some reason it has lines through the picture like its a janky cable setup. and when it powers on sometimes it has a shakey picture with no sound.

I searched for infos for a while but never found an answer. I would like to know how many "polygons/triangles" Vectrex can handle in a second

Thanks for the review, and look, of Star Castle. I first saw Star Castle in a pizza joint and figured it would never be ported over to the Atari 8-bit line of computers, which I had at the time. So, I used the Action! cartridge to recreate the game. It still ran in raster video but had colors and had the same game play. The Atari 800XL had player sprites for the ship, missiles and the "planet cannon", and the Action! cartridge compiled the program into executable code, so it ran pretty fast. These days I run an Atari STE 16-bit computer, and I might develop the game for this computer. Wait - you don't know of any port for the Atari ST line of computers, do you?

I’m so happy I found this channel thanks to UA-cam algorithm

as long as its make you happy, any crt can make you happy

Your videos are extremely my kind of content, I love it, keep up the good work!!

For unscripted content I think music is a great addition since it eliminates the silence when catching ur breath, or any other pauses. For scripted content I think talking is enough to make it a great video regardless of if it has music or not. I would efinitely want to see more unscripted videos doing crt restorations or just anything that does not need a script. You’ve also been a big inspiration for me to consider showing some of my own collection too on my channel. I’m excited to see what your channel is going to offer in the future!

Such a cool system, glad I got a chance to play.

yea i had one of those. It was a piece of crap

I really wish I knew where to get one of these.

Love it! As per usual, my comments are purely conversational, as I so enjoy what you do, just as it is! As for music, in my personal opinion, I like how LGR and Techmoan have their intro/outro tunes and ALWAYS have their intro to make the channel feel more professional, like 20th Century Fox/Paramount/Disney logo in a movie-- 'settle in, here it comes'. Technology Connections also always has his outro music and all these channels use free music that has now become synonymous with their channel. I agree with you though that background music throughout is unnecessary and often distracting. I missed your awesome CRT Spotlight graphic at the beginning because my brain has started to associate that with your channel (even though you do more than just CRT). Maybe a new generalized 'Steve's Stuff' intro is warranted? As for sponsors, I think your mindset is PERFECT. Go with the flow and if you get a sponsorship from a company that you're 100% behind, the ads will match your personality and won't hurt the content. I definitely got 'Clint from LGR doing hurricane recovery' vibes from this clean up and I'm absolutely here for it. If you haven't seen it, it's just Clint wiping mold off of old tech junk and it's oddly watchable start to finish... But yeah, I think you're doing a FANTASTIC job! Keep it up!

This is my new favorite channel

Have to say the whole front of it looks very much like a volvo 480 specially with the corner lights

Oh hell yeah, quirky and cool car

I’ve got a toy WWF accessory that looks a lot like one of those TVs.

We like Daisy as the co-host... Thanks for the cleaning tips!
