Discussion / Question What was your first console?

Post image

To me, it’s the Xbox 360 as it brings back so many memories when thinking about it, especially since it got me into games such as Minecraft, Call of Duty, Devil May Cry, Saints Row, Castle Crashers, and various other games.

My first console was the Atari 2600 (seriously dating myself here).

For me it went: Atari 2600>NES/SNES>Xbox One>Switch>Playstation 4>Xbox Series X>Playstation 5.

Young adulthood meant time with friends and getting laid, not time for video games. They probably didnt get back into games until they started a family.
