Found this immaculate little magnavox at the dump and put together this little setup for my daughter.

Found this little magnavox at the dump at a campground I frequent and it inspired me to dust off the old NES I’ve had squirreled away. The set had a workout dvd in the tray so this thing almost certainly set mostly unused in some old couples park model camper. Definitely have the itch to assembly a retro console collection now.

Love this retro setup and I can bet your daughter will be having a blast playing this game. Why not get the Mario Kart game as well?

Would need a nintendo 64 for that without an emulator, but emulating that era of nintendo is a sin without a proper controller

It's funny. I have to kids in their late teens and both of them have CRT tvs and VCRs in their rooms.

My kid is five so CRTs are a whole new experience for her, thought she’s still starting young. It was fun explaining to her that I only had two games for the NES and we have to swap physical DVDs to watch other things on the tv

Find some nice educational DVD's for her to watch as well.

Coincidentally blue planet was the first thing we watched on it! The way the colors and motion popped with the tropical fish was crazy

I like the companion cube.

And the radio.

That radio looks cute I have to admit.
