The NES when I was 5 and Megaman was my first game ever, and that shit was hard!
I know that Mario was on it, but Megaman had the weirdest box art and I had to play it for that reason.

I was born to a house with an Atari 2600. First game i remember playing was this maze game (Maze Craze...? i think it was called). We also had a Commodore 64 which was awesome but not really a console although we only used it for games. First console i can remember being bought for me and my 2 bro.s was a Sega Mega Drive (or 'Genesis' if you are WRONG) with Sonic which was the greatest thing ever at the time. Had a Game Boy bought for me soon after which is the first that was specifically mine and i still have it. The first console i ever bought with my own money and owned is my Playstation 2 which i still buy games for and play to this day
First console I ever played: Colecovision. First console I ever owned (or rather my parents owned): NES. First Game: Can't remember for the life of me.
The PS2 and Ratchet: Deadlocked and Marvel Nemesis were my first games. They are still awesome.
My family's first console was the Commodore 16(!). There was an awesome cartridge game called Jack Attack, and the rest of the games we had were the casette tape ones. You know, the ones that would take half an hour to load and then come up with an error message? We also had a Vic 20 but I think that only gathered dust and didn't have any games with it.
The first gaming device I owned was a Gameboy that me and my sister saved up our pocket money for, and worked out some kind of time-share.

My parents bought an NES before I was born. The first game that was truly mine was Sesame Street ABCs 123. I still play it every now and then lol
My very first console was a ColecoVision... and for it, my first game, the home port of Zaxxon. Apparently my connection with SEGA was meant to be from a young age, haha!
My folks tossed out the Coleco years later as it deteriorated in the filthy basement and this surely saddened me. Where all my games went, I'll also never know. That all changed however last month.
I purchased a like-new ColecoVision from eBay with 20 games and, among them, ZAXXON! It was like being reunited with an old family member, I am so overjoyed to have them again!

PC technically, but it was all little kids games like backyard baseball and those jumpstart such and such grade gamesxhannay said:
first legit console was the gameboy advance: pokemon gold and harry potter and the sorcerer's stone
Although I do not recall any games for it beacuse I was very young at the time, our first gaming platform was a Commodore 64 that my family smuggled in from Austria (and before you say anything, that was a popular practice in former Yugoslavia). Unfortunately, by the time, I could recall much of anything, it was already broken and I can't find it anymore...
My first gaming platform that I recall, however, was the PC. I also remember the first game I played on it....Croc: Legend of the Gobbos. I loved that game, although it probably isn't as good as I remember it. The music was awesome, though:

If we're talking any system, it would be the Windows '98, which came with a motocross game. Pretty fun.
If we're excluding PC, it was the Gameboy Pocket and Pokemon Red. Lots of fun, between Blue, Red, and Yellow, all of which I played at some point, I must have beaten that game at least a dozen times.
If we're also axing Handheld consoles, it would be the Xbox 360 (Yeah, I stuck to handhelds for a while...) and Guitar Hero 2. I had a lot of fun playing that game...

I think I was 12 or so. Had to buy it myself, and had been playing nintendo at a friend's house so the NES was a no brainer. Came with Mario Bros./Duck Hunt cartridge. I had another friend who had Super Spike V-Ball which I really enjoyed but had already played a lot, so I went with Kings of the Beach. I liked it, but I beat it the first weekend. Hence my renting games a lot after that.
