My first one was a Gameboy Color I blatantly stole from my cousin. It was his Christmas present from my parents, their son-in-law, no less. I only saw it getting wrapped from afar, but I knew it was there... that Yellow Pikachu Gameboy Color with Pokémon Yellow included. It was just too tempting! I sneaked in the middle of the night and claimed it mine from under the tree. My mother had to substitute his present for another... probably socks or something.
Never ever bought a game for it, played some Pokémans for some time and that was it. But it changed me, forever. I'm a thief, and nothing can change that. Crime doesn't pay, kids.
Other than that... one time, me... a PS2 owner by necessity, but not by love, saw a DS Lite at a friend's house. Love at first sight. My perception of gaming changed forever when I played... Brain age. Then Wario. Then when I played Animal Crossing... there was no turning back. Dual screens forever.
Bought my DS Lite and everything after it.
