How do you guys transition your playing time?
For me I went something like this (was born in 1987):
Main System Also Owned & Playing
1992 - 1995 Sega Genesis
1996 Nintendo 64 Game Boy, Genesis
1997- 1998 Nintendo 64 Game Boy
1999-2000 Nintendo 64 Game Boy Color, Dreamcast
2001 GBC Nintendo 64, Dreamcast, Gamecube
2002-2003 Gamecube Dreamcast, GBC, GBA
2004 Gamecube GBA, DS
2005 DS GC, GBA
2006 Wii DS, GBA, GC
2007 - 2010 Wii DS
Basically:
1992-1996 = Genesis (age 5-9)
1996-2001 = N64 (age 9-14)
GB/GBC 1996-2002 (age 9-15)
DC 1999 - 2001 (age 12-14)
GC 2001 - 2006 (age 14-19)
GBA 2002 -2006 (age 15-19)
DS 2004- ??, (age 17- ??)
Wii 2006 - ??, (age 19 - ??)
Will probably continue using DS into 2011 and Wii into at least 2012. Looking back, when I have more than two systems I use at once I don't get to buy as many game as I want, so I'll probably hold off on 3DS until I'm done DS...which will be a while given my backlog.
Of the systems I've owned I'd probably go something like this for personal enjoyment:
Wii > DS > N64 > GC > DC > Genesis > GBA > GB , based on time used / games purchased.
