Video Game Consoles: I've owned during my lifetime.

I decided to make a list naming all the Consoles I've owned over the years.

List items

  • The first console I've owned, unfortunately it broke before I could actually play it when I was a child

  • The console that got me into video games. I still have fond memories of my NES and all the great games I've played. From Zelda, Super Mario Brothers, to Mike Tyson's Punchout and Double Dragon. These are a few of the great games you can play.

  • Third major console I owned. I really wanted to like the TurboGrafx-16 and probably would have, because the system had some great games. Unfortunately, the system broke the first months I've played. I even got another one and that one broke as well. I believe the real reason the system didn't do well is because of the cheap hardware, not the games.

  • The fourth major console I owned. And like the NES, I loved the SNES. Great games, great memories. When I first played Super Mario World, which came with the console, I knew the system was going to be successful.

  • While others were whining about which 16-bit console was better during the wars, I got to have the full experience, by having both consoles during my teen years. I got the best of both worlds, meaning Mario and Sonic, and everything in-between.

  • A good friend of mine actually gave this console to me back during my youth when he got tired of it. I got to see what the big deal was, but after experiencing the NES and the consoles afterwards, the Atari 2600 was mostly before my time.

  • I owned this console, because I thought it would be a great add-on to my beloved Genesis. Sadly, it turned out to be a waste of money, even though I did play some good games like Knuckles Chaotix. They need to make an update of that game.

  • This was my first 32-bit console, back when they first came out. I had high hopes for the Sega Saturn, because I was a fan of the developers. Sadly, thanks to marketing power, and buying up all the third party developers, Sony's 32-bit console buried the Saturn. Saturn technology being hard to developer for was also a problem for the console.

  • After the Saturn failed, I settled for the only dominated 32-bit console, the Sony Playstation. Not to say it was regretful. The Sony Playstation was a great console was some of the greatest games of all time. Third party development made the Playstation the system of choice.

  • When it came time to chose the next set of consoles, choosing the Playstation 2 was a no-brainier. I enjoyed the original Playstation, and with Sony's buying power, I knew the system would be a success. Turns out I was right, as the Sega Dreamcast would also crash and burn. Like the Playstation, the Playstation 2 was a great classic console, that people still play today.
