What was your first console?

Post by BurtReynolds »

Atari 400. Technically a computer, though it was never used as one.

Still works today.

I guess I had GameGear before N64. Wasn’t thinking about hand-helds.

It played Pong and it was thrilling for about 10 seconds.

NES--I thought way more people in this thread would have said the same.

The only consoles I've ever owned were NES--Genesis---Game Boy---PS3. My older brother had an N64 and my younger brother had a Wii, but I was never player one on those.
