Let's start with the NES. Had it and loved it.
Jumped to Genesis for unknown reasons. The last time I was a console fanboy. Loved the Genesis, despised the SNES.
Got a N64 (as a gift), didn't like it. In fact, really disliked it and the jump to 3D.
Then got a PS2, and HATED it. On top of useless 3D, now I also had to deal with story driven games and attempts to appeal to my feelings. At this point I decided to stop playing videogames, forever.
Gen 7 comes around, I got the Wii and almost instantly found the good groove from the Genesis days. The Wii drew me back into the fold.
This gen it's Wii U. I typically never go with the same company two gens in a row, but I felt Nintendo deserved it after what they did with the Wii, and I still carry a grudge from the PS2 days. I love the Wii U even more than the Wii, but I think I'll go Microsoft in gen 9 (unless the Wii U forces UNITY in the market of course)
