Being the second child, we'd already stocked videogames since as far back as I can remember.

I remember growing up owning the following, from as far back as I my memory goes:

Super Nintendo
Sega Genesis
NES
GameGear
GameBoy

I can vaguely recall a time when the NES was broken, as we bought a new one. And part of me wants to say that I can remember the day we bought the gameboys (which would imply I remember a time not having them?) but I could simply be confused with the time we bought the gameboy 4-player adapters...

Now. How many of you guys remember SEGA CHANNEL!?!??

I inherited my brother's Atari 2600 (still have it!). But the first console of my very own was NES, with Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt and Paperboy!

I played nothing but the NES up until the N64 was released on the market.

Gameboy. Then Playstation. Then computer.

I was kinda late to the whole video game / computer thing.

Gameboy SP. Then Gamecube. Then DS Lite. Then Xbox360. I have a Mac but until Portal 2 comes out I sure as hell won't be gaming on it.
