 What's up everyone? Take down here. Welcome back to another video. Today I'm going to be sharing with you my gaming setup as of 2021. Let's get right into this. So the reason why I say as of 2021 is because I plan on in the future really soon hopefully moving in with my girlfriends and my gaming setup is going to be changing. Hopefully I can expand it a little bit and make it actually look a little bit more presentable but it looks pretty decent as of right now and I decided to share it with you guys because I've had a lot of people recently ask and request it maybe over the past couple months. I decided to finally sit down and show you guys my gaming setup. So it's been over maybe three years ago I finally went and purchased the PlayStation 2 and that kind of kick started me purchasing other consoles, video games and other things for my gaming setup and everything that I have here that I'm going to be showing you guys today. Some of the stuff you might have seen already on the channel I've done either unboxings for or just showed that I purchased it on the channel. So right now I have the PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 inside the cabinet here and the PlayStation 4 along with a bunch of games accessories and things like that. I have yet to get the PlayStation 5 but by the holidays 2021 I am hopefully going to be purchasing that with my YouTube money. So I'm really excited to be able to afford something like the PlayStation 5 with my funds from YouTube. Now I also have my first and only handhelds that is the PlayStation Vita here. I purchased this back in the summer of 2020 I want to believe and it's something that I have played quite a bit and it's definitely helping me trophy hunts I absolutely love this. Now once I get set up once me and my girlfriend move in together I'm going to be putting this on a little stand and displaying it that way. I think that is a pure genius move to do with it. Now I have tried this on a stand that holds hockey cards and surprisingly it does hold the PlayStation Vita but right now because of my current setup there's no point to have it on a stand and have it all looking nice when hopefully within the next month or so or maybe in the future me and my girlfriend are going to finally move in together and all this stuff is going to be rearranged so there's no point of showing that in this video. Now back when I purchased the PlayStation 1 it was actually part of a bundle so for the PlayStation 1 2 controllers and I think 4 or 5 games it was only $40 which is really under value it's a lot more valuable than that in my area most of them go between $50 to $75 just for the console itself and a controller and all the hookups and no video games the fact that it came with some video game for example it came with Crash a wrestling game which I never played back in the day in a couple other games I'm really excited to play the PlayStation 1 I'm glad I have it in my collection the PlayStation 2 I've had like I said for maybe three years now and mostly for the most part I only have my old wrestling games that I collected and I am going to be purchasing some more games for the PlayStation 2 that I remember playing back whenever I was a kid and I'm going to be getting more into collecting PlayStation 2 video games hopefully in the near future whenever I can find them at affordable prices for the PlayStation 3 I haven't played it for I haven't really played it since the PlayStation 4 and since I got the PlayStation 4 but I have been playing and purchasing a couple other games for it I recently purchased WWE Legends of WrestleMania for the PlayStation 3 and played and platinumed it and it was a lot of fun but since I haven't played the ps3 in maybe five years it took a couple hours for all of the updates and everything to be able to finally play and use this console and of course we have the PlayStation 4 which is my current main console I have a ton of games that I digitally purchased for it along with some physical games you guys can see here and here and it even have a external hard drive that is behind the ps4 here hooked up to the ps4 to extend the storage I think I have a two or three terabyte external hard drive for my PlayStation 4 now the only thing in my opinion that I'm missing in my collection well there's kind of two things outside of the video games that I want to get for a part of my collection and for different consoles number one I'm missing an original PlayStation 1 controller I really want to get my hands on it but in my area people are charging like $30 for a PlayStation 1 controller and I can't afford purchasing an original PlayStation 1 controller for that amount and I'm talking about the one that had no analog sticks that's what I want just for collecting purposes the other thing that I want to get my hands on is a PlayStation portable a PSP which I would basically have a complete PlayStation collection if I had the PlayStation P other than the PlayStation 5 so that's one of the next things that I want to try to purchase as well so now as far as my setup I have the PlayStation 1 and 2 set up next to each other and the PlayStation 3 and 4 set up next to each other for a reason the PlayStation 1 and 2 have an AV cord for the video and audio and the power cord are different the PlayStation 1 is a little bit different than the PlayStation 2 but I have those wired through the entertainment unit as well and I just have one AV cord so if I want to play the PlayStation 1 I hook it up to that one if I want to switch to the PS2 I just disconnect it and hook it up to the PlayStation 2 all of the cords are not connected to the consoles right now and the reason for that is I don't want any power going through them and deteriorating them over time I just like my setup like this where whenever I want to play whatever console I want to play I'll connect it at the time I want to play it and when I'm done disconnect it now for the PS3 and the PS4 the power cord is the exact same so I always have my PS4 connected because it's my main console I don't need to keep disconnecting it when I'm done with it I'll just leave it always connected but the PS3 whenever I want to play it I just turn the PS4 off disconnects the HDMI cord and the power cord and plug it into the PS3 and be able to use it on the same setting as well so it's easier for me to have most of my consoles not connected and when I need them connect them and have only one cord plugged in at a time and be able to use it whenever I need it now what I used to have to do to play my PS1 or PS2 I used to have to take the actual console set it on the table and have the cords plug into the TV and the outlet and then just have the controller plug into it because the controller from where I set won't reach here what I ended up doing was purchasing a extension cord for the controller now it will plug into the PS1 or PS2 because they're wired consoles and it'll give me the reach so instead of me always having to move the consoles out of the unit to be able to play them which is a little bit of a hassle I can keep them here plug the extension cord in for the controller and still be able to play the game without having to sit right next to the TV of course I don't have that issue for the PlayStation 3 or the PlayStation 4 because they're wireless controllers but that is something I still wanted to mention that is part of my gaming setup another thing you guys can't really tell with my gaming setup how it currently is is all of the controllers that I have I have at least two controllers per console but the ps3 I only have one working console like I said I've never played it for I guess five years there's five years where it just sat here and over time one of the controllers stopped working and I don't I can't remember if it's a drift in the analog stick or what so for the ps3 I only have one working controller but for everything else I have at least two other than the PlayStation 1 I'm still looking for an original PlayStation 1 controller that has no analog sticks I've yet to find one in my area that's cheap enough that I can afford so this is my gaming setup as of right now 2021 like I said once I move in with my girlfriend I'll give you guys an update I likely won't give you guys an update until 2022 whenever I have everything finally set up and ready to go I also want to get not only the PlayStation 5 the PlayStation portable the PSP and an original PlayStation 1 controller but I also want to have them set up in a way where not only each of the consoles are on display and ready to actually play at any time I'm going to probably keep up the wiring of how I currently have it at my new setup but I want to not only display the consoles but I want to display the video games the controllers and the handhelds as well a little bit better than you guys can see them here because as I'm recording this video I know it's kind of hard for you guys to see the ps3 and ps4 because it's in the cabinet here with the glass and the PlayStation 1 and 2 it's kind of hard to see them from this angle but this is the current setup that I am using hope you guys enjoyed me sharing with you my current gaming setup and in the future once I'm finally moved in I'll give you guys an update once I have like I said the PSP the ps1 original controller and the ps5 I'll give you guys an updates of what it finally looks like but it's going to take me some time because I want it a certain way and I can't wait to share that with you guys so thank you everybody that was requesting me to share with you my gaming setup like I said this is my current setup but it will change and I'll give you guys an update in the future I'll see you guys in the next one comment below how your gaming setup is do you guys have it a similar way is all of your games and consoles ready to play whenever you need let me know down below I'll see you guys in the next video please take care peace
