Share Your Oldest Working Gadgets

Jiggly · 06-09-2020, 09:24 AM

I came across an article where people are sharing their oldest working gadgets. I know there are some people who own seriously old PCs, gaming consoles or just household appliances and tech.

I definitely own a couple outdated and no longer used items, but few are actually that old. I mostly own old mobiles/cellphones from post 90s, the original Nintendo Wii model and one of those Gameboy Advance SPs (see below). Therefore, most of mine is early 2000s at it's oldest!

Share yours below!

Your Game Boy Is awesome. I also had one (can't remember the exact model) back In the mid 90s, but ended up throwing It In the trash. I wish I kept It.

In terms of my oldest gadget/device, I'll have to dig up my Commodore 64 that's buried somewhere In my wardrobe.

A commodore? Now, that is cool.

I'm a little ashamed to admit I barely touched that gameboy. We got them second hand because my family couldn't afford the very popular (at the time) nintendo DS's. It was an alternative xD

Yes, my dad purchased It as a gift for me, which Is why I kept It- sentimental value.

If It's In good condition and you wish to sell It, I think you can get a pretty good return In cash.

What a nice thing to keep. I'd imagine the commodore would go for a lot more than a 2000s gameboy xD

Perhaps I'm overlooking the obvious, but what exactly Is a Dendi?

Actually, I'm not familiar with it either. I thought if anyone knew what it was, it would be yourself.

Apparently it's spelled Dendy

To be truthful, even at Its correct spelling, It's unbeknownst to me- well, until I just hit a Google search.

After viewing the web page I can actually Identify It by appearance, but not by name.
Thanks for correcting Its title.
