Dozens of consoles are on show, from the 1972 Magnavox Odyssey, to the late-1970s Prinztronic Tournament 10 and the better-known 1994 Sony PlayStation.
Packed into a small room and tucked away at the top of the Portsmouth City Museum for the next six months, 128 consoles are on show for the Future of the Past exhibition.
All of the consoles on show – eight of them playable – are from Steve Lowe’s collection.
