I've got three hooked up to my TV just now; 360, Wii and Ps3. I have a N64 hooked up to the TV in my bedroom. Wish I could find a solution for having more hooked up but a) it becomes a mess b) I just don't have the space Plus, I don't want to seem too geeky... Edited by alxbly, Aug 21 2009, 04:14 PM.

Posting pictures of your setup would be even better.

There's two TVs in my bedroom. Three are hooked up to my "main" one: Wii, PS2 and N64. The other TV, which is really my brothers, has his 360 hooked up. There's another N64 underneath but it's not hooked up. I guess it's just there for decoration.

I've got only 2 consoles, and they're both hooked up (although they seem to be better at catching dust these days...): a N64 (naturally  ) and a PS2.

It's kind of a mess but I manage to have a Super NES, Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii, and PlayStation all hooked up to my television. The poor little NES is the only one which got packed up and shoved under a table. |

GameCube, Wii, PS2 and Xbox 360... in other words, all of my consoles. I'm lucky enough to have a TV with 4 SCART connections and one composite connection, so I can use all my consoles at once. The 360's video cords do dangle from the front of the TV though, since the composite connection is on the front. |

Yep. I know what you mean (apart from the geeky part, I can't avoid that!). I have the N64, the XBox, and the PS2 all connected up to my TV, along with my VHS recorder (which I'm going to replace with a domestic DVD recorder at some point), along with my Sky box. There's also a tangled mess of SCART and power leads, of course (no matter how tidy you leave them, you come back next day and they're always tied together in a mess  ).My other console, the Gamecube, is not currently connected up, as I don't have a free SCART socket. I'd like to use either the XBox or the PS2 as a DVD player, but wear and tear would kill the drive, and so I have a seperate DVD player, which to use I have to connect up, and disconnect the PS2 (a nuisance, but unavoidable at present). I use the XBox to play mp3s, so I don't have a hi-fi system. |

Are you aware of boxes like these? I picked up one on sale from Homebase about a mounth ago. They're a bit crude, but they save you having to deconnect/reconnect everytime you want to use a different machine. |

I've got one of those, thanks (looks exactly the same one, except mine was from Argos (I think)), but that's only three SCARTs in (the outermost one is my PS2, which I swap for the DVD player when I need to). Next time I buy a TV, I'm really going to consider how many SCART sockets it has. |

Geek-dom confirmed. PS3, 360, Wii all hooked up to the projector via connection selector. PS2 & Xbox set-up and ready to swap connections with the afore-mentioned 3 systems. Somehow I now also have a 2nd Wii,  which is hooked up to the LCD. SNES & N64 packed. Tightly. Away.So I guess that means 4 connected full-time, with an additional 2 in "the queue"... |

I was gonna say "you need a Gamecube" but I guess there's no need if you own Wii(z). If you own a black Wii I will have infinite and equal respect and hate for you.

Fear (respect/hate) not... as I will more likely have a PS3 slim before a black Wii.  (and you already know my PS3 slim-gettin' status... only at temptation stage)

Usually just the Wii though occasionally I'll bust out NES/SNES/N64. Looks to cluttered if I have more than two out at a time but I usually put the system back up when I'm done. |

These are the consoles I have hooked up and the games I currently have in them. CRT TV Nintendo 64: Killer Instinct Gold Wii: Super Smash Bros. Brawl although I'm actually playing the Project M soft mod. HDTV Wii: Yup, I've got two.  This one has Mario Kart Wii for the CTGP Revolution mod.Wii U: Pokken Tournament PS4: Has the Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Legacy Edition disc in it because I still play Modern Warfare Remastered quite often. I also have a Raspberry Pi connected to my HDTV although I don't really play the games I have on it too often. |

There is just too much on my one TV, so yes, cables are a mess. All on one HDMI port and a lot of SCART splitter-boxes. It does come at the price of less images quality on some consoles, and comes with some ghosting. But as I am short of space for another tv and short of space of properly displaying the not-used consoles, this is it. Picture will come. I have hooked up: NES/ SNES (actually sharing the videocable) N64 Gamecube w/ gameboy player WiiU Xbox360 Phat PS3 (Phat 60 GB) Dreamcast CD-i (yes, a CD-i) Edited by Kamikaze, Jul 20 2017, 12:36 AM.

CTGP Revolution is brilliant and even allows you to play Mario Kart Wii online again. |

Sacrilege, BDR has an Xbox One in his house! Just kidding, man. The more consoles the better. Do you have a copy of Rare Replay for it? |
