    First one was my parents when I was very young and not sure which one it was, but it had just the one game Pong on it. Could be a different version than the one below as I remember it to have either the colours green or orange with a black background. (Not too sure of this though)

    Played on a console which used cassette tapes to at a nephews house back in the day. No idea what it was called, but think you had to program that * yourself. Ghostbusters was one I remembered.

    First one was the commodor 64, all 1mhz of cpu power! Compared to today's 3-4ghz cpu.

    After that was mega drive in 1990.
    A nes and snes before going for a ps1. Which started the Sony cycle for me.
    Ps2
    Ps3
    And now ps4.

    Handheld had an original game boy, game boy colour and briefly the Sega game gear.

    Pc has always been in a house since 97 at least. Never been a big pc gamer, till now. New graphics card + steam link and controller has opened that world up to me.

    Amazing to think how far we have came from the Commodore 64 abd playing a Michael Jackson we side scroll game to playing the expansive open world of gtav

    See a couple of you had a Dreamcast.

    I remember that being billed as the next big thing and ahead of its time. It was pretty much a flop right?

    Remember the Panasonic 3DO?

    I always remember Dixons had Palm Springs Open on demo in every shop. It looked utterly amazing at that time.

    Nobody I knew ever bought one.

    I'm not into consoles anymore,but I'd want a PS2 and a 360 in the house,just for playing classic games.I don't know how people can tolerate waiting for hours on * to download,and all the new content bollocks,* new consoles are a joke imo.

    I saw one at a car boot sale about 3 months ago. I knew about because of gaming vids on youtube but I didn't know of its existence growing up.
