A community blog by humantofu [Destructoid reader humantofu touches on a topic I’ve been thinking a lot about lately: CRT gaming. Namely, how much I miss it! Well, certain aspects, anyway. I can’t spare the room for these big lugs. — Jordan] If you grew up in a pre-2010s household, then chances were good that at a certain point in time, there was a blocky, hulking behemoth of a TV that was resting snuggly in the middle of your family’s living room. The CRT was at times an absolute bastard of a television set, to put it nicely. Not only did some of the larger models take up a ton of space, but some entertainment centers made it an absolute pain in the ass to have multiple consoles plugged in at once. Having to worm your way around to the back of some set just to swap out a console’s A/V cables was never ideal, nor was it any fun for that matter to help carry a TV up a flight of stairs with how much some of them weighed.
