Ps1 back when I was in Highschool. Didn't get it at launch but when I copped, it came with Einhander and FFTactics.

You know what’s weird I had a PS1 at my grandmas house with no games and only a Pizza Hut demo disk



I didn’t actually get a game until my parents got remarried years later

Gamecube and I only owned 4 games; RE4, metroid prime, Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker.

PS3. I heard on GameFaqs that Gamestop was doing preorders I went to the GS by my house and preordered it on my credit card. By the time it released I'd paid it off. Went to work and got a extra controller and my games on discount

I had some times with that system.

Looking at all the responses I feel extra old. Brehs are talking about PS3s while I'm talking 8 bit consoles.

PS2.

My pops would always buy my consoles for Christmas before then....

My uncle bought the PS3 during launch

I couldn’t believe he paid the launch price for that

I thought that kinda money was insane for a game console

Super Nintendo. I got saved up all my white.castle money for it. Money well spent.

That slim PS 2. My step dad bought the PS 1 and OG PS 2. I moved out and couldn’t be without my own system.
