When I was growing up, most of my gaming came from the arcade. My first console was given to us by a family friend, it was an Atari 2600 with a bunch of games. The Sega Genisis was the next console we got and from that moment on we were Sega loyalists. We got the Sega 32x, and the Sega CD. I didn’t own an original NES when I was a kid, I just went to my friend’s house to play it and he came over to ours to play Sega. However, I did get a Gameboy! Then Playstation and Xbox came along and the world of gaming changed forever.
What was the first video game console you ever owned? What was your favorite when you were a kid?
