The first console i can say was mine, and wasn't owned by my sisters and then dumped on me was my PS1, which is odd because now, i can hardly stand sony as a company.

Sure I could go through all I had, painful to list it all as much is MIA now, but sticking right to the topic.

Nintendo Entertainment System, the large set in that test market run in Los Angeles and NYC back in 1985. I still have it and it works pretty well, ROB is sold off as is gyromite, but I still have Duck Hunt, SMB1 and Hogan's Alley from that happy christmas.

First handheld was Gameboy that christmas in 1989 w/tetris and Super Mario Land as an extra.

My parents kept me out of gaming until my grandmother went and bought me one of those new Gameboy Advances at. Probably 7 or 8. Bugger, I missed out on a few years of quality gaming nostalgia I can never get back. But when I look back, the only games I ever beat on my old GBA were ports of SNES classics. My first game was Super Mario World, followed by A Link to the Past, followed by Yoshi's Island. I had others, and would later go back and beat more, but those stand out the most. Granny bought me a Gamecube the next year.

Note: I'm 15

NES here, too.
I was born in the (socialist) GDR part of East-Berlin and my uncle lived in West-Berlin.
Whenever we visited him i stared at the screen in awe, while my father was playing Super Mario Bros.
So the first thing my father had to do once the wall broke down was to get an NES :3

P3P FTW.

On topic - my first system of my own was the Gameboy Color. My brother owned a NES and GB Brick which later became mine, though.

Gameboy Color. I remember laying down in the middle of our hallway opening it up and trying to figure out how it worked with my dad. After that, I was addicted.
