Have you ever bought a system more than once?

Alex, sounds like you'd almost be better off running your own gaming pawn shop. lol

I still have an Odessey 2000 from the late 70s that still works (it turns on anyway. it's battery powered if you can believe that).

The Atari 2600 still works.

I sold the NES along with the games when the 16bit generation came out (never should have done that).

One original GameBoy which was later sold.

I bought 2 Sega Genesis. Sold the original one and then bought another one for reasons I've long since forgotten. It should still work.

Only bought one SNES, which never failed.

Bought a TurboGrafx-16 with the CD drive, sold it and bought a Japanese market PC Engine Duo, which still works.

Bought one N64 which saw minimal usage past Ocarina of Time (almost worth it just for that game alone). Even upgraded the RAM for Rogue Squadron.

Bought an original Playstation which saw so much usage, the drive wore out (upside down play extended its life). Then bought a second new one from a shop that chipped all their inventory. Then bought another one in Japan while on a business trip. Then bought a PSOne when they came out. Technically, only the first one crapped out on me.

Bought one original PS2 which has soldiered on flawlessly for about 7 years, never to be replaced.

Two Game Boy Advances because I liked the original so much I wanted a back up in case I lost it.

Stopped gaming due to work/changing interests.

Then bought a PS3, Wii, 360 and DS in the span of less than a year.
