I was all about the Super Mario Bros games and my lil bro thought Duck Hunt was the bomb. The Zapper Gun was pretty frickin sweet.

Other; Philips.

It was the Videopac G7000, otherwise known as the Magnavox Odyssey2, of my mother. It took a while until there would be a newer console in our house, which was the Nintendo 64. After that it went fast. Before the N64 though I was introduced to and played games on my aunt’s NES and SNES and our own PC/Mac.



It was an OG GameBoy in late 1990



No love for Atari? :( I got a 2600 as a gift back in the days... man those were the times :)))

Even considering how much I loathe them now, it was a Playstation. Now I own only Xbox consoles. OTOH, when I went for other consoles, I bought all the oldies, from Saturn, to Turbograf, to NES to SNES and so on and forth.

Consoles does make me ask if the Commodore and Spectrum count though.



Atari 2600



Regular old NES was my very first console.



Nintendo with the GameCube and Game Boy Advance.

I started Gaming on Mattel Intellivision, and Advanced Dungeons & Dragons was my most favourite game :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MDVwAXVJ3w I loved it !

In that video, the guy played the game for the first time, and he didn't have any idea about what to do in the beginning.     edited : the difficulty level was from 1 to 5 if I remember correctly, and that guy was play at 1/5, judging from the speed of the Dragon.
