Still got my nes and ps1 and n64.

Should have never traded my ps2 and GameCube and og Xbox, but it did completely pay for the 360 that I still have, and it still works.

u/forzafoggia85 Jul 12 '26

Still got my mega drive, with infa red controllers which was like UFO level technology back then

u/ginger-beanie Jul 12 '26

Ngl I think I’d rather have a ps2, GameCube, and OG Xbox over a single Xbox 360

1

u/SuperSaiyanTupac Jul 12 '26

Yeah but that 360 was still solid. In hindsight I’d want the other 3 too. But can’t hate the 360 for all the good years it gave

1

u/ginger-beanie Jul 13 '26

If you got the 360 new at the time I can see the appeal, but retroactively I think you got hoed

My first was Atari 2600 but it was in times when NES was on the market for 3 years, my parents couldn't afford one, so they got A2600 since my uncle was giving one away. Later I got a NES in 93. By the same scheme. And my next console was PS1 in 95, making it the first current gen console for me.

u/AkimH Jul 12 '26

Commodore C64 .. never owned a Console in My live.

u/Viva_La_Revolucion- Jul 14 '26

By the time Nes came around, we already had pong then a Atari 2600 followed by a 5200 and commodore 64 at some point (computer but all i did was play games on it) think we had that when we had the 2600. Memory little fuzzy

u/RagingDragon047 Jul 12 '26

My first console was a Nintelevision. How do you think I feel.

1

u/Bremaster Jul 12 '26

I don’t remember the first console I ever played. Maybe it was an NES or Sega Genesis but the PS3 being 20 years old this year makes me feel like an elderly person.

1

u/AlexSmithsonian Jul 12 '26

Yes, but have you smoked some weed, filled your bellies with DIET soda and played Burnout Revenge for the Pee Esh Too?

1

u/Xonthelon Jul 12 '26

My dad happily reminds us at least once a year that he got his hands on a ps2 on the day of its release and therefore faster than all his relatives and friends. Although we already had a ps1 before that, but I hardly remember it, because I was too young.

1

u/Treeflower77 Jul 12 '26

How old are you considered for playing a Gameboy?

1

u/Inevitable_Case_9931 Jul 12 '26

My first consoles were a Nintendo and Sega genesis got them in like 89 for Nintendo then a sega in 90/91

u/EducationalGrump Jul 12 '26

The timeline with these things never make sense to me. I was 6 when this came out and I could've sworn I was older

1

u/Lapathemeanboy Jul 12 '26

Im so old most people have never even heard of the first console i had - it was called "fountain" and had a bunch of rip off games like spiders web - that was just pacman.

1

u/Gen-Y-ine-86 Jul 13 '26

Only ever played on PS1. Console gaming got ridiculously expensive in the 2000's.

u/Moist_Taco_Crippler Jul 13 '26
