I got a second-hand SEGA Mega Drive from my older cousin when I was youunger. It was brilliant but I didn't really use it that much. My first proper console that I bought myself was my PS3.

I had a sega megadrive after that too. Then it was a N64. Then a PS1. Then a Gameboy colour and then a gameboy advance. Then Xbox. Then PS2. Then PSP. Then I kind of stopped playing video games slowly.

I still have the PS2 and PSP. I'm going to sell the PSP and buy a atari or sega megadrive.

Hahah, sounds almost the same as me! Except minus the N64, add in gameboy advance SP. And DS instead of PSP. I still play now but not as much time, sadly. Although I have just managed to convince my dad to let me take the ps2 back to uni with me. Timesplitters, yeeees

Nice I still have the atari and the megadrive but need a new scart lead. Ps1 is ...somewhere.

SEGA megadrive? How old have are you people!?! LOL

All you young 'uns don't know what you missed out on.

My first was a Sega Master System but I never really used it much as it didn't have many games. I only really started console gaming around 5 years later when I got my first PS2.

[Marc Fiorano]

In order:

SNES
N64
Dreamcast
Playstation 1 (first time I properly got into games)
Gameboy Colour
Playstation 2
PSP (1st gen)
Playstation 3
PS Vita

I think I enjoyed PS2 the most, it was such a leap in gaming and has epic titles. I probably spent more hours on the Gameboy than anything else though, it's what happens when you become obsessed with Pokemon.

EDIT: By the way for those who may not know, if you're missing the old school consoles you can get emulators for your pc and play all the games

I kind of long term borrowed the N64 so it wasn't really mine. I think my mum threw the megadrive and atari out. I don't think it was working properly so my mum threw it out. Evil woman. I even had one of those old TVs which I use to play it on. http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs29/f/20...Only_Stock.jpg

If she kept it I would have probably been able to fix it and play it now with all the free time I have. Retro gamer FTW!

I was thinking of buying a xbox 360 but then decided against it as I thought the new next gen consoles will be released next year probably.

My first was a third hand gameboy advance, with super mario 2. I was a late starter as far as consoles were concerned. Managed to break the aforementioned gameboy by smashing it into my forehead in frustration when I couldn't complete a level, cried for a week.

Aw, that sucks! (tbh my mum would have done the same but my dad would usually fix things before she got to them). I'm laughing so hard right now, we had a tv like that too

Yeah probably but it's an ideal time to pick one up cheap before the release of the new ones - surely the new gens will be too expensive anyway.

I'll probably end up getting one when the new halo is released I think that's November.

[Plushie]

Sega Megadrive. It was out before I was born but my parents got it as a wedding present. Since then I collect old consoles, my fav is my Wonderswan and Atari 2600.

[Redolent]

Game Boy Color

We also had a Sega Master System II and got a PS1 around the same time as GBC, I have no recollection of either of those two though so maybe they came first

Never gonna forget the moment I started my first game on Pokémon Blue

[ManBeast]

PS1. I wanted a Megadrive though since that's what all my friends had, although the PS1 was the better choice!

[scotttb]

Commodore Amiga, and it was epic

[Gooner92]

So in order of getting the games console in my timeline
Sega megadrive I have faint memories of playing one game but i cant remba its name since i was probally around 3-4 years old at the time.
PS 1 I fondly remember spending hours playing rayman when i was around 4-5 years old and i remba it was just released and i got so happy that my mother got it for me.
PS 2 first game played on this was pro evolution I think.
Game boy Color (Pokemon )
PSP First game i started playing on this was Fifa
Nitendo ds First game on this was big brain academy.
PS3 First game i played on this was resistance fall of man which came with the console, i logged the most hours on call of duty modern warfare 2 now that was bloody ace.
