"jailbroken PS2" Joking aside, we all know the real king in Brazil is the Master System. Brazil needs to put a Master System somewhere in its official coat of arms, as the "official nationally adopted console". |
The Master System was my first console, I loved it and stil do, but truth be told, Tectoy games are pretty bad to be generous, the licensed rom mods are okay I guess, but the stuff they made themselves is terrible.

I'm from Brazil and I never had a Sega console, I had all Nintendo consoles except the original NES. I had all Sony consoles except the PS2 too. When my friends and cousins had a chipped PS2 I had a Gamecube. |
I had a Master System (1999), then the PS1 (2001) and Gameboy Advance (2003).
But my counsin and neighbour had a Mega Drive, another neighbour had a Gameboy Color and a PS1, then the Advance too, which made me go for it as I wanted to play Pokemon whenever I wanted lol, and my best friend across the street had the SNES and a Dynavision clone that played NES games, he also got the PS2 about when I got the Advance, and we also played on his PC (Windows 98) quite a bunch too.
Plus two other friends had the N64, another one close by had another SNES, and one had the Master System as well, but I would hardly go to their places (used to borrow Master System carts between each ourselves, tho).
I had access to a lot of systems until eventually everyone had a PS2 but me, lol, only got mine in 2010 but by then had played even the PS3 and 360 on my friends.
There was a LOT of kids around the same age or a 3 years gap max around my house when I was growing up, none of us had many games tho, even as almost all of the games we did had were pirate copies and only a fraction of the price of actual original games.
Pretty cool that before the PS2 everybody had different systems, but once the PS2 got cheap enough and people started burning their own games themselves, then nobody wanted anything else anymore.
I don't think I had a single friend that didn't have played Resident Evil 4.
