Older generation game consoles do not have state of the art technology but are still good for a lot of gaming fun. With the three oldies - Playstation 2, XBox and GameCube - you get a lot for your money. Because you have a wide range of different games the old consoles are still popular, especially as a second unit. None of the three supports HDTV, surfing the internet, playing online games or writing e-mails without buying additional hardware.

Standing Devices / Portable Device

Whilst portable devices can be brought everywhere and played anywhere, standing devices cannot. They are usually heavier and more extensive.

Mediatype

The mediatype denots the type of storage device, on which the software (e.g. games) is stored. This can be a Blu-Ray/DVD/CD, CD/DVD, Cartridge, DVD/Mini-DVD or UMD.

Displaytype

One can usually differentiate between two types of displays. The integrated display, built-in to the console or the external display (e.g. a TV set), which the console is connected to.
