Day 1: A New Hope

[Spad]

Master System II with Alex Kidd in Miracle World onboard, it was a terrible game.

Nintendo Gamebrick... Sorry Gameboy. Tetris and Super Mario Land.
Ah the good ol' days!

I remember playing a really old PC (it might have been a mac, I guess?) at my granparents. And playing a Master System and Mega Drive at home, though they weren't "mine."

If you want to be real specific towards my first console that I owned, as far as I remember it was a Playstation One with Crash Bandicoot (and a ton of other games) and it was glorious! GLORIOUS I TELL YOU.

I loved Crash Bandicoot. It was only ever a rental for me though back in the day.

Tough, as I didn't own a console of my own for years as I always had computers, such as the Spectrum and Amiga. However, the first one I ever played was that orange one that I can't be bothered to Google, which came with Pong and those twisty dial 'gamepads'. Played my mates' NES consoles and my sister's Master System (loved the built in Alex Kidd game, actually) but my own first was the SNES, which came with Mario All Stars (Mario 1,2, 3 etc) and also SuperMario World

Super Mario World. Still the best one, mainly for the ending theme tune music.

You know this to be true!

The first one I bought was a SNES off my mate with a choice of one of two games. I picked Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past. Awesome.

My first ACTUAL console, that wasn't my brothers, was a Playstation that I bought for £20 off of someone in my class when I was about 12 when he got given a PS2. It came with the Weakest Link. It took about 3 months before I saved enough pocket money to buy *actual* games for it.

First handheld console was a Gameboy color which I got for my 11th birthday with Pokemon Blue and Yellow. Before that I used my brothers NES or got whatever hands-on time I could on an N64 whenever I went round my friend's house.

My first console was the Nintendo 64 that I shared with my siblings. The first game we had was "Diddy Kong Racing" and we used to play it for hours. The first (and only one) I bought just for myself was my Nintendo DS together with "Chocobo Tales".

Diddy Kong Racing was awesome. Probably the best racing game I know of with a proper story, multiple vehicles AND actual boss battles that were super tough.
