Do you have one?

Himself has had one for years (yeah, he's a big kid!).

We had to move everything a few months ago, because of the flood. Just getting back to "normal".

He plugged in the X-Box and it went BANG!

Question ~ if he gets a new one from Santa, will the old games play on it?

:-D

Depends how old the one was that blew up.

It's likely that a newer model won't play older games as the technology will have altered too much

Nearly as antique as Packman Scozz........

Sony and Microsoft are both bringing out new games consoles this year - maybe worth googling to see what is about. :-D

He has about a dozen games for the X Box!

An expensive pile of rubbish.

A new game console is way down the list of things we need.

:-(

I might put an ad in the local paper, see if anyone has an old X box for sale

:-D

I don't know anything about X-box, but there is one for sale on Preloved, described as Original X-box, for £15. To that of course you would have to add postage to Australia, but it might be worth thinking about if you have no luck with your local ads.

For those who don't know, Preloved is a bit like e-bay, but without the bidding, no commission charge and free.
