I keep hearing about gamecube stuff, playstation (2), etc.
I'm really confused because these devices were created pretty much when i was born, or when I was 1 year old.

I didnt even know that gaming existed until I got a DS lite!!

:0 I always see people talking about their gamecube ac worlds and stuff so I'm kinda curious what was your first gaming console/system?
 
The consoles around when I was born were the N64 and the original PlayStation, but my first system was a Sega Genesis (Sega Mega Drive in JP/EU).
 
GameCube was my first. Got it when I was 6, and I've been in love with video games since~ :blush:
 
Well I first played N64, but that was my brother's. The first system I had to myself was my DS lite.
 
My first handheld was a GameBoy Color, and my first home console was a PS2. We had a PS1, but it technically belonged to my brother.

However, the very first console I played on was a Famicom, which was kind of a 'communal' console at my granny's place.
 
The first system I played on was my parents original Nintendo. But the first system that was all mine, was a Super Nintendo.

And Nintendo has been getting my money ever since.
 
I was born during a time when a gaming generation was ending--1993. The first consoles I played were the SNES, Genesis and NES, as my family already owned both and took the time to make me understand what video games were and how to play them. The first console I ever owned was a Nintendo 64 that I received Christmas 1997, followed by a PS1 on my birthday in April 1998. Sony IPs captivated me the most, and I've always valued their consoles over others enough to purchase theirs first, although I still enjoy Nintendo games.

Had a hand-me-down GB Pocket around then, but didn't really enjoy handheld gaming until the GBA came out.

I started out with a Nintendo64 then a Gameboy Color with Pokemon yellow :) I can't remember how old I was when we got the N64 but I know for sure that I was younger than 6.
 
The first thing I remember actually playing was super nintendo with my brother.

As far as consoles that belonged to me though, it was either a gameboy color or N64. I don't have the gameboy color anymore but I still have my N64.
 
The first systems I played were a PS1 and N64. But it's hard to remember much from them because I was young, and it was a long time ago.
 
Back in Summer 1994 I bought a colecovision at a local garage sale worth $60 with 100 games. colecovision-psp.jpg

The package included an infamous porn game that shocked everyone in the gaming community at that time.

Whoah, WHOAH, WHAT THE HECK? That's so wrong. Why would you put that in a game? Omg, that's just not right... That was a good deal though for the money

My first gaming system was a handheld, the Game Boy Color. I can't remember exactly when I got it but it must've been around 1999-2000. My first home console was a GameCube and I think I was eight or nine when I got that. I still have and sometimes play both of those systems; they've held up pretty well :]
 
My first console was GameBoy Color. Before that I played games on DOS mostly, those were great times.
 
The first console I ever owned was a PlayStation my father had... We lost years ago when I was little... Recently my mother found it hiding in a box in her closet. It hadn't seen the light of day in almost a decade, let alone felt fresh power running through its circuits. It worked like it was brand new. Unfortunately, I had bought a PlayStation 2 a month or two prior, so the newly found PSOne is now in storage. Still, I have fond memories of the thing. :)
 
My first console was a Game Boy Color that I got for my fifth birthday. I haven't seen it lying around for a few years now, but the last time I saw it, it was still working ok.
