I really don't like playing console games on the big screen while sitting on a couch. My preference when gaming is in the comfort of my bedroom sitting at my desk. It's pretty much my mancave. My desk setup is ideal for work. Plenty of draws on each side containing office supplies, dual 18" monitors, keyboard in the middle, mouse to the right, and all the way to the right side of the desk is my Dell Latitude E5470 laptop in docking station. The speakers are set at each side of my monitors. When I play my console games, I utilize the left side of my desk and use old CRT Sony TV, which is too large and barely fits on my desk. I need to find something smaller that I can keep on the desk without having to constantly remove when it's not in use. For reference, my desk is 23" by 45" (approximately 2' by 4') I'd like to find a small (ideally a 7 inch or 9 inch screen) portable TV with A/V output (a plus if it has coaxial output for my Atari 2600). I'll have it mounted on the left side on my desk. I have found a TV that has A/V output (HDMI / RCA jack outlets): See link What's cool about this TV is that it has a headphone jack where I can hookup my desktop speakers too, which sound fairly decent even without a subwoofer. However, I can't seem to find any small portable TV with coaxial Do you guys know of any small gaming TVs with coaxial?

It's weird that personal TVs for console gaming aren't more popular. I only live with my wife, but it still feels selfishly uncomfortable to hog the entire living room just to play single player or online multiplayer games. I'm using the entire room for myself, there's couches and a huge TV, and there's nothing of interest here for anyone except the person holding the controller.

I think people who want personal TVs in their rooms for console gaming typically like a medium size TV (like a 24 inch) mounted on their wall or furniture. My room doesn't have the space for that.
