GameCube. I always owned the Super Nintendo and 64 but I never had the GameCube.
Honorable mention to original Xbox.

I never had any console so to be honest i think i would be excited to have anything, currently i am emulating gameboy on my phone and it's so fun to explore the games i never had as a kid! like mario games, zelda, pokemon, sonic...
​
i had a computer since i was small so i did play computer games but i never played with a controller so that's all new for me. now i started to play phone games on bluestacks so i could play them with a controller too, i don't know how to connect it to my phone directly so at least i have this option

I can say I have done that before with emulating games and enjoying something I didn't own. Personally with the vast games online I have wanted a pc

It's really cool that we have the option to emulate something to try games from platforms/devices we don't have. True, i guess pc is the ultimate machine out of all of them, at least for me it opens up many opportunities

I would have loved a SNK NEO GEO AES. It was insanely expensive (it still is).

Probably a GameCube. I always played at friend’s houses but never had my own.

I was a SEGA and Sony kid. Didn’t get a Nintendo home console (Switch) until I was 30, and it made me wish I could have had an N64 or SNES back in the day. I missed so many legendary games it’s unreal.
Sure I can play some of those games now on NSO, but it doesn’t have everything I want (mainly stuff like Chrono Trigger, the early Final Fantasy games) and games just hit different when you’re a kid.
I would have been all over the Zelda and Metroid games in particular.

I remember really wanting a Dreamcast when they 1st launched. Luckily I ended up playing one quite a bit a few years later as my friend had one.

I'm actually really glad with the consoles I had growing up.
But if there was one I'd say the ps1

Ohhhh good question. Never thought of this. I enjoyed playing Sonic at my friends, but that’s all played at his house. Maybe a Genesis just to try other games like Phantasy Star and whatnot.
Maybe after that a PS1

Being born in 2006 I've gotten all the things I would want Wii, DS, 3DS, Xbox, Xbox One, Switch and now PC
Funnily enough I got an Xbox 360 after an Xbox One

I was a Playstation kid but also played Pokémon on the Gameboy. My friend had an N64 and I loved Perfect Dark and Goldeneye. I specifically got a Gamecube in anticipation of the great Rareware games expected to be released on it. And then they sold Rare to Microsoft 😅
So I guess I always just wished I had the N64 and perfect dark in the year 2000. Fun times.

I played a vectrex recently and it was sooooo great. There was something very special about its FEEL.

Never heard about this device till just now. Looks tiny

It's definitely not small. That thing is heavy. I love mine. Highly recommend palyingone.

I bought one at launch. Only remember getting Ridge Racer, Lumines, a memory stick, and carry case. Converted a couple movies and videos to play on it. That was cool af for the time. Threw it in the trash after a couple months.
>! It was in a pile of newspapers that I threw out. !<

I wish I had got a nintendo switch back when they were new because now I feel like the next nintendo console is soon so I wont buy one.

I wish I had a GameCube, would've loved to play all those Mario games back in the day.
