I was around 5 years old when I got my Super Nintendo with Super Mario World. Before that, my cousin had a NES and it was probably my first contact with video games. What about you?

I was like 5 when I got the NES, didn't even know how to turn the darn thing on!!!




I had something before the NES since as long as I can remember. No idea what it was...colecovision maybe? Had a wierd controller.

So since I was born I guess?

I got a Gameboy Micro + Pokémon Emerald & Disney's The Wild for my first communion when I was six.



If handhelds count 4/5 years old and GBA SP, first home console I played was the PS2 when I was around 4/5 also which was really bought before I could even use it though. The first home console that I got which was more in my lifetime, meaning I was actually alive throughout it's lifespan was the Wii of which I would of been 7/8.

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

IIRC I was 11 when I got my GBC and then my Wii months later.
