So I'm reassessing my entertainment center since seeing the Video Game History Foundation's report. Since the study it's got me thinking, if you could pick any 4 consoles to have hooked up to your TV (4 becuase I've got 4 inputs to my TV) which would you pick and why? I will accept modded consoles as answers too.

PC, and then whatever the current generation consoles are (assuming they remain just Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft so there are only 3).

Now I have access to every game ever. Mostly on PC due to having a larger back catalogue and through emulation.

If I am not allowed the PC due to it "not being a console" then I will use a modded Xbox instead and still have emulation and the ability to install windows for all those PC games.

Since the Steam Deck is a PC and a console, I think there's definitely an argument to call a PC is a console, so long as it's designed like one. If not the Steam Deck, then a small form factor PC running something like ChimeraOS. Windows is just too cumbersome to use anywhere other than sitting at a desk, and even then I hate it so much.
