What was your first Game console??

First console was one of the Atari consoles. Not sure which one it was. After that, I got an NES.

 

'I' started with an really old pc, then I got an CD-I ... I liked it actually! At the time I had almost every nice game for it (zelda, link, dymo's quest etc) After a year I think the CD-I was sold //. then the good stuff begins!!! got an megadrive II from my dad with sonic 2 and lotus 2 ! will never forget that day!

 

My first console was a Atari 2600 (Yes, i'm feeling old right now :smt043 )

After it, i got a Master System and love it . Sega/TecToy was making a great work advertising the consoles. TV shows talked about it. It was a great time.

4 month after i got a Nes Clone called "Super Charger", that was on the same design as the Famicom. I never bought games for it, just rented. The Master System always got my attention. Although i loved to play Mario 3, Zelda, Excite Bike (one of the coolest games of all time, at least for me), and of course Mega Man. =D

Anyway, after some time i decided to sell the "Super Charger" and with some extra money i got the Mega Drive (almost on it's life end). Had fun with games like Gunstar Heroes, Vectorman, and so on.

Unfortunately, at one time i though the Master and the Mega Drive were not exciting anymore ( it was on the start of the PC gaming crazy , plus arcade going "polygonized").

I don't really miss the Mega Drive, but the Master System i miss a lot (people that talk to me, now that i say this a lot)

Anyway, when the Saturn and PlayStation were released, i got the PlayStation.I love it, and since one of my best friend got a Saturn, we were with luck, since we could play games for both systems =D

Years later i got a PlayStation2 and months after, when my dad, went to his home country, Portugal, he got me a GameBoy Advance with 2 games.

Last, i got a GameGear at ebay.

The rest of the stuff i have (games) i bought in all those years

 

The 2600 from A-TA-RI, it's a videogame system AS-YOU-CAN-SEE!

 

When I was a little little kid we had a pc, since my dad was a programmer. Somewhere in the eighties I got my first console, an Atari 2600. It came with a 32 in 1 cartridge which was pretty cool! After that I moved on to a Megadrive. :smt023

 

My first console was a Super Nintendo with SMW. My brother and I played that game to death! The next game I got was Mario's Missing (big mistake!!). After a while, I purchased tons of games like the entire Megaman X series (I remember when X3 came out and I got it for my birthday!), Donkey Kong Country series, etc.

When the PSX came out, my parents had me sell my SNES collection in a yard sale to save up for it. We were going to go in 50/50 for Christmas. I sold all of my games for $5 each, and the system for $20. After Christmas, they gave me a PSX and all of the money I had earned! They thought they were doing a good thing, but it took me a long, long time to get over that!

I've since re-purchased almost all of the old games I had.. except, of course, Mario's Missing.

 

First console I played/owned was the NES back in 1989.

Then I played the SNES back in 1991, I didn't own it but I loved Super Mario World.

I then got the Sega Genesis as a gift around 1992. It came with Truxton, Ghost and Goblins, and Altered Beast. I loved that system even more. Then the Genesis died. I later got another one as a gift around 1994. I didn't have Truxton, nor the other games because I lost those too.

Then it is as follows:
N64(1997)
PSX(2000)
PS2(2001)
Dreamcast (2001)

I plan on buying an xbox and mod the crap out of it.

 

My very first console was the Amstrad Mega PC which I am still using now, I dont have enough space :smt017 or money :drinkers: for a new monitor / TV so I've got my DC running thru that monitor too.
Before that I had computers. It went in this order

ZX Spectrum 48k
Atari ST
Amiga 500
Amstrad Mega PC
Playstation
Megadrive
SNES
Gamegear
Nomad
Virtual Boy
GBC
GBA
Dreamcast
CD-I

I dont own all that stuff anymore but do have some of it!

 

Colecovision was my first system and although the system itself was discarded, I still have several of my original games. :smt023

 

My first computer was a Sinclair ZX Spectrum +, but my first CONSOLE (that was the question guys!!!), hmm I think it was an Atari 2600, followed by a NES.

Go Yakumo! I had a Plus/4 but it got stolen from the guy who repaired it! I got a Plus 3 (speccy) with the insurance money brand new! A good deal hehe. Still got most the Plus/4 games, and the other year picked up another machine (unfortunately not boxed like my original).

 

re

I've been playing videogames for a long time (born in '87, so the NES is what I mainly remember), but my parents have never let me buy a console up until last year, when my mother forgot the 'no consoles' rule and let me buy a PSOne .

Since then I have aquired (after trading in the PSOne):

Dreamcast
Playstation 2, which I have since traded for:
Xbox
Genesis (which my ever so kind friend let me have with her 3 games )

I'm short on money right now, but I'm planning on getting another PSOne (I have about 30 games that I can't play because I have no Playstation equipment ).

 

Crappiest system of all

The very first game console my family owned was a Colecovision when I was six years old. I loved it but my dad thought it was a log and returned it within two weeks. For some reason he bought an Odyssey 2 and we kept that for a few years (at least until 1984.) Then at some point that got sold and the only oprtion I had left for video games was the Atari 8 bit computers, first 400, then 800, then a few years later a Mac, tandy 1000, etc.

My next dedicated game console was an NES, which I didn't get until 1989 ( I was already 13 by this time.) Later on I got more stuff after I got my first job, but all the expensive crap (like a 3DO and TurboExpress) I got through my Mom's GTE catalog (Now Verizon.) For those who don't know instead of cash Verizon gives bonus points to sales people, who then get to trade those in for merchandise, high end electronics, furniture, vacation packages, etc. I got my Super Nintendo this way too.

I now own 44 systems, all bought within the last five years. But I've got a space under the TV for the Odyssey 2, even though it was a piece of crap.

 

My first system was a Mattel Intellivision back in 85. Am I the only one here who got one of these for his first system?

 

An Atari 2600 that my uncle gave me. Still got it actually.

 

No way... there has to be at least 1 other person out there!
:smt043

j/k man... I'm sure your the only one!
:smt043

again.. just messing with you... one of my cousins first console ever was the Intellevision.. which is odd beause the whole family was into the 2600... maybe they wanted him to have something different since we could go over anyone else's house and play the 2600! :smt040

 

The first console here was a SNES, thats mainly because i only played around with my PC before that. At least i had a friend who owned a NES/SMS before the SNES came out.

 

my first console was the sega master system with an assload of games .
