RH | 5,428 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 My first gaming TV was an old B&W 10". Since it was a spare, the Atari 2600 was hooked up to it in the corner of our living room. When the NES came out and we finally got one, my Mom let us hook it up to the main TV. Good memories. I think it was an RCA. I wouldn't mind having another one. 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/6745-anyone-still-have-their-original-crt-tv/#findComment-165559 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabonga | 2,533 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I have had so many over the years it is hard to keep track of them By far my favorite was a Mitsubishi 36" with PIP. I still miss that one. Our upstairs tv (a Phillips 32" CRT died 2 days ago. It didn't get much gaming - although I am going to start hooking up my switch to the replacement. I just got one of these off of craigslist to replace it: https://www.amazon.com/ViewSonic-N3000w-Widescreen-HDTV-Ready-Television/dp/B0001FSCU4 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/6745-anyone-still-have-their-original-crt-tv/#findComment-165571 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always had room for bigger ones* - handy since I also use whatever I use for games for movies also. That 36" was a bitch kitty to move though.......... *Our first tv when we got married was a 13" color Sharp - that was long before I started gaming. That was mostly a matter or economics. 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/6745-anyone-still-have-their-original-crt-tv/#findComment-165575 Share on other sites More sharing options...
