definitely a good spread of nintendo, playstation, and xbox. only suggestion I would have is to get a gameboy player for your gcn if you can. its definitely fun to play a lot of those 32 bit gba games on the couch

My friend who heavily collects gamecube constantly reminds me of getting one. Though the only gameboy games that I would play would be pokemon.
I already own a modded psp which I can use to play those gameboy games + the gameboy adapter is roughly 100-150 € here depending on the quality of it.

I would say do it. Most people would say that you should get a crt tv, but nowadays you either find them for free somewhere (less likely) or overpriced due to the influx of retro players. I would say old lcd tv’s is a middle ground due to being cheap and decent to good looking.
I love the fuzzy image that I get from the gamecube on the older lcd, which looks like a vivid dream in my opinion. Others strongly disagree, and strictly sides with crt.

All those wires

Yeah, I will have to sort out some time to get them neat. I mainly just jammed all power cables into the corner with the extension.

I mean, three of the consoles don't support HDMI natively (and neither did the first gen 260, now that I think about it), so I hope the TV has the older high quality inputs

The gamecube is running from component to scart on the older lcd-tv. The ps2, xbox (OG and 360) are using HDMI on the bigger modern one.
The ps2 and og xbox are both using adapters to hdmi which works great.
