> I never had to plug the old consoles back in
I had to do so from time to time simply due to a lack of space.
But whatever, Wii U is gone, Wii is gone, Switch is in my closet, PS4 is gone now that I can just watch DVD movies on my ThinkPad using the Ultra Dock (or just pirate it, which I primarily do for new content anyway, but still useful to have something to play DVD videos if you're renting them and want to pirate it along the way too), though my desk is now primarily occupied with multiple laptops and a x86_64 tablet, and a custom built PC under my desk, and 2 mini PCs turned into servers (Devuan and OpenBSD) next to the desk.
But I bought an extra desk which I could put a monitor on that happened to have the old AV input natively, so I could set up an SFC and N64, and even a GameCube if I really wanted to (that one is still on my closet due to the lack of games I have yet to beat) on it.
And it works surprisingly well, way better quality than those AV to HDMI adapters, even though the monitor is a 32" screen (and I literally can't get anything bigger than that, because again due to the available space).
