discussion What was your First Games Console / Computer

[slashdash]

When i was little my parents bought me a sega genesis. Id play sonic the hedgehog or whatever all the time. Kind of began my video game addiction

Console was Atari 2600. Game was pong
PC was a Apple II and game was Oregon Trail.
My first personal PC was a 386 DX2 with a 10MB HDD and a 28k modem. I couldn't play doom because it was too slow so I played Wolfenstien 3D. My buddy's dad ran a pawn shop and would buy up the PC's that came in. They had TONS of parts laying around, he said grab what ya want and build it. I did. I later upgraded it to a 486DX2 and finally got to play laggy Doom.
The good old days!

My first real experience with home computers was my big brother's Commodore 64. For the first few months he had it hooked up to an old black&white TV, but it was still brilliant. I mean, he rarely let me play it of course, but I was tolerated hanging around in the background occasionally, while he played Samantha Fox Strip Poker or California Games or Boulder Dash with his mates.

A few years later I finally got my own computer - an Amiga 500. With a RAM expansion and a proper monitor! Some of my favourites were Stunt Car Racer, Pang, Lotus Turbo Challenge 1 and 2, Sensible soccer, Pinball Dreams/Illusions, Civilization, Bundesliga Manager, North & South, Super Cars and many more. What a fantastic machine that was!

Not "my" console but my family had an Atari 2600 Jr. somehow...from somewhere, way after its release.

Atari but I don't remember details... I was like 4 years old and played it with my older brother... So technically it was his...

My first one that was technically mine would probably be Nintendo, NES

NES was the first console I owned and we had an XT as the family computer.

Before owning anything, I do remember playing on Atari at someone's place and playing Number Munchers and Oregon Trail on an Apple computer at school.
