I got a NES probably because it was the main console of the time, our house had an Atari 2600 prior to that, as well as 3 arcade consoles in the basement. My brothers and my parents were always into videogames since I was little, so the progression to the NES was probably natural with a bit of buzz.

I cant remember what made me want a SNES, but I never regretted owning it. By this point, I was strongly attached to the Zelda series. So my N64, GC and Wii were mostly due to following the Zelda series. Ironically, I don't have the DS Zelda game yet.

So, I'd say its mostly for a specific IP more than anything else. I'm just lucking out now that the Wii is getting some serious 3rd party attention so I can also play games like Guitar Hero, COD5 and Dead Rising.
