nes for me



Proud owner of a Nes since 1989, got it safely packed in a box somewhere.

Another topic answered by my sig. The oldest I've owned was an Intellivision. As it says in my profile, it was a hand me down. It kind of blew, even back then (granted, I was playing it while my downstairs neighbor had an NES, so I knew what I was missing).

Oldest system that was bought specifically for me was an Atari 7800. I actually got it before I got the Intellivision. Much bettor machine, though I still at that age wished I was playing Super Mario Bros., and not Mario Bros. I remember the day in 1st grade when a guy I new brought in his manual for the brand new Super Mario Bros. 2. It seemed so cool, and I wished I could have it. I never got an NES, but I ended up playing all three NES Mario games and wished I could own them. Thus, once I had the SNES I was overjoyed when Super Mario All-Stars came out.

I don't have any of my earliest consoles anymore. The oldest system I still own is an SNES. The oldest console I still own that never left my possession is a Nintendo 64 (I've owned 3 SNES's at various points. The current one was an eBay purchase).



My consoles and the fates they suffered:

Atari 7800 (Sold), Intellivision (Thrown out), Gameboy (Lost), Super Nintendo (Stolen), Super Nintendo (2nd copy) (Thrown out by mother), Nintendo 64 (Still own), Super Nintendo (3rd copy) (Still own), Wii (Sold)
