Cathode Ray Tubes offer a retro gaming experience that is still incredible and worth celebrating.

Most people are over-charging for old, worn-out TVs on places like Craigslist and Ebay, now that people are realizing how much better they are for retro gaming. I saw this one for $25 and had to check it out.

I had to clean up the corrosion in the remote to be able to change to the AV input, but it works well enough. Threw it on the kitchen counter to test it out.

I got one for free because the people didn't want to haul it out of their basement.

Everyone had this screen back in 1997.

Looks good. Nice price. I got mine for 20 and I'm glad it still works.

Is that a towel or a miniature print of the Big Wave by Katsushika Hokusai?
