Well for me it started with a Nes, back then I was just happy to get a gaming system and didn't really care much. I was young and relied on my mom to buy me things.

From the Nes I went ti the Sega Genesis, don't remember if that was my decision or if my mom just randomly got that for me.

The first time I thought long and hard was the decision I had to make between the Saturn, N64 and PS1.... It was tough at the time because my friend had a Saturn and I remember being blown away by Virtua Fighter, Battle Arena Toshinden and a game called D which he owned, on the PS1 side I was very much into fighters so Tekken, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider were games I was interested in playing. Ultimately my decision went with N64 because of mario 64 commercials... talk about being influenced by one game to justify a system purchase huh.... ahh the joys of being a kid. I would later end up having my mom buy me a PS1 as well.

Then the very first system I bought with my own money was the Sega Dreamcast. Shenmue intrigued me as well other games on the system as well.

After this I went on to the Xbox. At the time I had this vision of it being graphically advanced than the ps2 and Gamecube. I would also eventually end up buying a ps2 later on.

After that I went with the 360 but will also eventually end up buying a PS3 later as well. I bought a Wii my first Nintendo system since back during the N64 in 2013 when it was cheap enough for me at $79.

I haven't bought the ps4 or xb1 yet because I'm trying to avoid mistake I made during last gen when I bought the 360 and never got to play some xbox/ps2 games I bought late. This time around I'm going to beat and finish all my current gen games before moving on. How long that will be? I have no idea.... The Wii U I will basically buy when the system hits $150 or less.

Oh I forgot to add that I had gotten the 32X add on for the sega genesis but that was quite easily the worst console purchase in my life because I bought 0 games for it so it was never used lol.....

Snes
N64
PS2, Gamecube, Xbox
PS3, Wii, 360
PS4, WiiU, Xbox One

Did my genesis, PS1, Dreamcast gaming at a friends. Fun times, me and my friends had a good thing going where one of us was buying something, and the other ones would buy other things, and it would become one giant trade/borrow session of games/consoles. Good times. Kids don't got that kind of ingenuity these days.

@jg4xchamp: that's probably because of the advent of online these days. You rarely go over to friends house to hang out and play games when you an just play against them online......

PS1, PS2, PS3 (died recently, but I'll get it fixed), SNES... and I think I have a Gamecube somewhere around here. And then of course the current systems, Wii U and PS4.

Really wish I would have kept them all, but I use emulators for most of the older stuff anyways.

I started with NES, the SNES, Genesis, Then PlayStation, Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast, GBA, PlayStation 2, Game Cube, Xbox, DS, Xbox360, PSP, PS3, 3DS, Vita, WiiU, XboxOne. I like to think I got all of the major consoles since the NES, but I didn't get the N64 and PS4 purposely. Ever since I had to buy consoles myself I insist on consoles having 5 games or more being exclusive that I like N64 had Ocarina of time, Mario 64 and Star Fox 64, PS4 has no exclusives I want yet but it looks like Uncharted, Tear Away, Street Fighter 5 are a start in the right direction.

  1. Sega Mega Drive(Genesis)
  2. Playstation
  3. GameCube (made my first gaming PC at this point)
  4. XBOX 360 (after the 2nd RROD I just sold it)
  5. PS3 Current (also might be the last since mid-high end PC gaming is just so much better that I don't see the point especially since the exclusives no are few and far between)

NES to Genesis to Playstation to Xbox to Gaming PC to Xbox 360 to XB1 to Gaming PC.

I'm really close to getting a PS4, it's just after the original Xbox and its offset analog stick layout, I can't stand the DS controller. It just feels so unnatural to me.

Since I have moved around, I actually don't have my older systems any more. Lost my 3DS in a flood last year, so I'm going to eventually buy the N3DS. Going to eventually get a PS4 later down the line. Maybe when the Slim version is released.

I'm pretty young, so while I played a SNES they had at my elementary school, my first console was the N64... I think it's pretty much:

  • N64
  • PS1
  • PS2
  • GameCube
  • Wii
  • PS3
  • WiiU

and now just gaming pc with no plans for another console

as for handhelds:

  • Gamboy Colour
  • Gameboy Advance/SP
  • DS
  • PSP
  • 3DS XL

I don't really feel like I've missed out on much, considering the great memories I have from the games I have played
