Famiclone with a 5.000.000 in 1 cartridge. I was amazed and instantly began to play Super Mario Bros. I was 6 and life was so good. And that marked the beginning of my gaming history.

The original Xbox, was living with my grandparents at the time. Saw it at a Second hand shop for 100 bucks, my grandpa bought it for me along with cod 2 big red one,dinotopia the Sunstone odyssey and medal of honor rising sun. Me and my sister used to fight over who would get to use it even though she had a ps2 at the time. Alot of good memories with that thing.

Does a Nintendo D's count? If yes, I was pretty small, can't remember but I'm pretty sure I was ecstatic. If no, then the Ps4 was my first console, and I blew up with excitement!

Sega Master System. The big one with the light gun. I had Sonic, that's all I remember. And played the duck hunt game which was preinstalled. I loved it. ❤️

My first console was a Wii and 360 at the exact same time. I bought Wii for the family and 360 for Black Ops. The reason I got the 7th gen of consoles because I was mainly a PC gamer

the question was not complicated brother, everyone said what THEIR first console was and who got it for them. u answered correctly in ur second paragraph (excluding the intro). first paragraph is about someone else’s console and the others are just other consoles u bought over time (so not ur first console, logically..) so yea. simple question.

My dad somehow built a Sinclair Z80 clone out of - I guess - smuggled or knock off soviet components. It had no case, just a board with wires. Loaded games off tape cassettes via a tape player and a stereo jack. A good game took 6-8 minutes of fax machine sounds to load. And now I work in the game industry as a result.

Got a 360S on Christmas in 2016. My dad bought it because he thought kinect would be good for the family. Sadly it red ringed because I never understood the concept of ventilation, but I had a lot of fun playing forza motorsport 3 and horizon 2. Recently upgraded to a one s on my birthday. I miss my 360.
