chrisinnyshotgun Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Ditto on the 2600. I loved the crap out of my old Atari. My favorite game overall on it was probably Frostbite, which had some of the best graphics the machine was capable of at its time. That game was brilliant. I also liked Dolphin, Megamania, and Haunted House a lot. My favorite game on any of the older consoles though was Nightstalker on Intellivision. Of any of the older games, it is probably the most intense game I can remember. It's still fun. And it's still hard as hell. Agreed on Haunted House - and like you and the OP, I too started with an Atari 2600 - and mine still works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arecelis Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 This may be really dating myself but my first console was the original pong machine that had like 6 games hardwired into it and the paddle control was part of the console Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndorilTheGreat Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) I feel rather embarassed admitting this but... my first gaming console was actually the Nintendo Wii. :confused: Yes, yes, I know. However, before you start to laugh at me, hear me out. I was a computer gamer long before I got the Wii. I had a computer to game on (DOS - Dark Forces, anyone?), and all of my friends had the "cool" consoles (N64, Play Station, Xbox, etc.), so I never really had a use for a console. :thumbsup: Edited May 19, 2011 by IndorilTheGreat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povuholo Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Only have had handhelds, other than that it has always been the PC. I had a Gameboy Advanced. Love the Golden Sun games, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sphinx7410 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 (edited) The original Playstation , i never bothered with consoles until i saw a Formula one 1996, and that was it i bought the console so i could race, got a copy of Soviet strike at the same time and one of the best games ever in Exhumed . Nowadays i use all platforms for 1st person gaming and for the Elder scrolls Morrowind, oblivion and soon Skyrim .

diveinto Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Mine was SNES. Best game all in all... Maybe Yoshis Island (at least the game I played most). SuperTennis was pretty good. We still play that today sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
