Now imagine a room that resembles a digital time capsule, filled with treasures from the golden era of video games and the early days of communication technology. This room is a disorganized wonderland where rare gaming classics and old communication devices await an organizing hand. The walls are covered from floor to ceiling with shelves that almost buckle under the weight of video games from decades past. The drawers and boxes contain treasures such as original NES cartridges, rare Sega Genesis games and collector’s editions of PC games from the 90s, their covers gleaming with nostalgia. Each game is a relic from a time when pixel art and chiptune music fired the imagination.
Old communication devices are piled up on the floor of the room – all silent witnesses to technological development. There are clunky video phones that look more like bricks, pagers that haven’t made a peep in decades and the first generations of PDAs waiting to be resurrected. The atmosphere in the room is characterized by a gentle disorder. There are cables everywhere, controllers from various consoles and manuals that look as if they have seen better days. The air is filled with the smell of old plastic and the feeling of times gone by.
This room, a paradise for every retro game enthusiast and technology nostalgic, is crying out for an organizing hand. Someone who lovingly sorts the games in chronological order, who carefully dusts off the communication devices and assigns them a worthy place. It’s a room that not only preserves a piece of history, but is also an invitation to immerse yourself in the fascinating world of games and technology from times gone by.
If you go around the corner, you come to a small side room, a hidden refuge for lovers of computer history and collectors of old games consoles. This room, which almost seems to have been forgotten, contains treasures that will make the heart of any technology nostalgic beat faster. The walls of the room are filled from ceiling to floor with shelves that bend under the weight of computer magazines from times long past. These magazines are true contemporary witnesses – from the early days of personal computing to the advent of the Internet. You’ll find colorful covers reporting on the latest achievements in the world of technology, long-outdated predictions about the future of computers (really funny!) and ads for hardware that would be considered antique today. The pages of these magazines crackle with history and are filled with articles written at a time when 56k modems were all the rage.
In the drawers of the room is an impressive collection of small games consoles. Each drawer reveals a different generation of handhelds and portable consoles. There’s everything from the classic Game Boys, which provided countless hours of gaming fun, to lesser-known devices that only true connoisseurs call their own. These consoles are not just gaming devices, but also pieces of cultural history that bear witness to the development and spread of mobile entertainment.
The sideboard is like a small island that has defied time. It’s a place where you can spend hours leafing through old magazines and tracing the development of computer technology or reminiscing while picking up one of the many consoles and embarking on a nostalgic journey into the world of games. This room is more than just a warehouse for old magazines and games consoles. It is a living archive, a personal museum that is a declaration of love to the bygone days of the computer and games industry. A place that not only preserves the past, but also keeps the fascination and passion for technology and games alive. And so you could browse endlessly, but at some point your eyes hurt: it’s just far too much.
