the first console i bought with my own money was.. the wii u. but its really not about what i bought with my own money. its about what i have experienced over the course of my life.
i have been an owner of all seventh gen consoles from the start. sixth gen, the gc and ps2 tore it up pretty quickly. 64 had an abnormally low amount of games, but there were other factors that contributed to that. ps1 got the ball rolling pretty quick. snes, genesis had games coming out the ass immediately as well. i really dont see how whats going on right now is the same as what happened with older consoles.
also, for your information, i have probably like 6000 video games in my closet. i know a shit ton about the history of all the major consoles and, really, since the super nintendo started, ive played all of them as they were released. (i had older brothers 6 and 10 years older than me so i was fortunate enough to start out with actraiser for snes as my very first video game.)

Playing games as a kid, when virtually anything is good, and understanding the ebbs and flows of how game releases work when you are an adult are vastly different things.
Also, that must be a gigantic closet.

its actually two closets. and i went in there to do a quick estimation and it must be closer to like 4000. im horrible with estimating shit, but yeah, its much closer to that. id say maybe 500 or so are doubles, so you can subtract that out of there. i have been collecting for over two decades so yea, i have a lot of shit. a good portion of them complete with box and instructions and in nearly flawless condition.
