I'm 29. The first games I played were on a friend's Atari 2600, the first gaming system we had in our own house was an old 8088 PC.

23, and it was a tough call back in the day between Sega Megadrive, SNES, and PSX. In the end the PSX won with the superior driving game at the time, Ridge Racer.

24 and I had a few because a lot of them were being sold cheaply in car boot sales (similar to yard sales but in a field where everyone brings their crap and sells it literally out of their car boot). I had a little yellow thing that played Pac Man by using a system of LEDs to light up the symbols instead of using an actual screen. I had a SEGA Master System, an NES, another little LED rip-off thing that played the original Donkey Kong game and last but not least.



One of these bad boys.

EDIT: Off topic, but out of curiosity, did anyone else in the U.K. find it difficult to get games for the NES? I had loads for the Master System and the Mega Drive II, but barely any for the NES. I remember getting Ninja Gaiden, Castlevania and the original Ultima (which I never completed) and some racing game I can't remember the name of, but not much else.

I'm 30, and my first gaming rig that I owned was a ZX Spectrum. Although my family had some older system that plugged into the tv and let you play pong in like three or four differnt colours.

I'm 19; first console was a Nintendo 64. Nowadays it just sits there and collecting dust, which is a shame, because I can't imagine a childhood without Super Mario 64, and other golden classics.
