NES.

NES baby. If I still had my NES, I'd take time out of my day to plug that cartridge in and zap some ducks. I remember playing that and barely even touching Mario.

Anyway, I'm 22 and my first system was the Turbo Grafx 16 and my first game was Keith Courage and the Alpha Zones, though I'd say Commander Keen was a very close second. It wasn't long until I got an NES and began my love affair with Nintendo.

15 going on 16 on Friday.

But this has been done before, and it had a poll too.

EDIT: My first console was the Nintendo 64.

First game was Goldeneye.

 

[NeoAC]

19, first console was the NES with Duck hunt, second was some Japanese 60 game combo pack or something like that. Currently up to 6 consoles in my house at the moment (7 if the PC is included.)

 

[crimson5pheonix]

I have 8 consoles before you count my PC's.

 

[wilsonscrazybed]

32 and counting, my first console wasn't a console at all. I bought a WANG "laptop" used for 100$ to play MUDs on.

I wish I still had it... It weighed about 30 lbs and would have made an excellent battering ram if you ever needed to break into a burning building.

I also have some slight memories of Donkey Kong on the SNES, but that was my brother's.

I've stayed alive for seventeen years in a row. I'm certainly hoping to make it a habit.

First console... well, technically I started gaming on the PC, but my first console was an Atari 2600 at my grandparents' cabin. Good times... I still have it, and it still works.
