First System You Owned

What was the very first system in your home as a kid? Mine was the Intellivision. I played Pitfall, Burger Time, Night Stalker, Space Armada, Astrosmash, and B-17 Bomber all the time. Then came the NES which was such a step up. It was so good in fact that it stunted my social development.

By system I take it you mean system that uses different game cartridges.

In that case, it'd be the ColecoVision and the first games I remember playing were Donkey Kong which came with the system and Smurf Rescue.

Before that I owned a pong type standalone system from Radio Shack which played a variety of games like tennis, hockey etc which were all basically just varieties of pong.

It gives you an idea... The only ones I bought new were the PC, the Cube and the DS. 

The first system I had (and I still have it) was the NES. Came with the extremely common SMB/Duck Hunt cartridge.

My first system was Coleco Adam; hybrid Colecovision and home computer.  I played Buck Rogers, Donkey Kong, and other Colecovision games: Mr. Do!, Time Pilot, Baseball, Rocky, etc.  They were very good.

Later, my cousin gave me his Intellivision III with Burger Time, and B-17 Bomber.

I bought NES with Super Mario Bros, and Duck Hunt.

The Sega Genesis
