The first console I personally owned was a Wonderswan Color handheld. My dad gave it to me when I was 6. (It was already old then. I think it came out in 2000) Then I got a Sega Dreamcast & Nintendo Gamecube. Now I have a PS5.

My dad collects old game systems and he has all the ones on your list, including ones that aren't like the FM Towns Marty from Fujitsu, and a PC Engine Duo/Supergrafix, and the handheld version called a Turbo Duo. We also have a Nintendo 64DD Disk drive.

well I grew up with older brothers who played video games. They had an Xbox and PlayStation since I was very young so I grew up playing those.
but the first system I had that was actually mine was a game boy advance sp in silver

One time my dad messed me up and made me lose a game so I threw it at him and I ended up breaking his nose 😭😭

My first handheld was a Nintendo game & watch “Fire”. Like this one pictured below. I think it came out in the early 80’s, and I still have it today in working order, in it’s original box and stored in my attic. Nintendo Game & Watch

My first handheld was a GameBoy. The screen was black and white. It was the now (ultra) rare yellow version with Pikachu.

My parents bought our first console (for ever to use) which was the Nintendo 64. However I remember being most excited the night my dad came home from work with the Nintendo GameCube.
