Why too old for console video games?  I'm 44 and I still like to play console video games sometimes.  And in the past 10 years or so, I've set up several different ways to use emulators to play old console games. I modded my Nintendo Wii and installed some console emulators on it. I also have a handheld gaming system that runs emulators (currently a Retroflag GPi case with a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4). Also, a couple years ago, I bought a Nvidia Shield Pro for my TV, mainly for streaming, but there's a Retroarch app for it that can emulate multiple old game consoles.

I've always been more of a PC gamer though..
