    Picked this up back when consoles were extremely scarce and loved every minute I used it. It's not as powerful as the Series X but it holds its own as long as you don't mind that all of your games are digital. I mostly use it when I'm traveling and want to game in hotel rooms.

    Best system to get into next gen gaming aside from being digital only and held back on graphics.
