Favorite console of all time?The_Last_Ride

The Nintendo 64 would be mine. Great exclusives and the best gamepad I have ever used. No other gamepad has felt comfortable for shooters in comparison to my mouse and keyboard except for the N64.

It was my first console.:P (N64)bugbag

i beat you :3, i had the SNES and the original gameboy :3 

Nice.

The first console I played was the NES, but I didn't own it at the time.

The SNES was my first console. My dad bought me that and my own TV when I was 6.

I lucked out with my PS2 as well. I was working at Wendy's when I was 15 and one night my Dad picked me up from work and he had a PS2 waiting for me in the car. He must have heard me talking about wanting one.

I got a PS1 around the time I got my N64.:D Made me a gamer.bugbag

I worked all summer to get my PS1. I had it on layway lol. 

Wow... Many of my consoles were given to me because they got old or something.:P

PS1 was awesome. It revolutionize console gaming with that CD drive... thing.:|

What made me get a PS1 was WWF Smackdown!. Playing that at my friends house I knew I just had to have that console. Goldeneye did the same thing for the N64. Luckily that was my gift for passing Grade 7. I was a spoiled kid.

How long did your N64 work? That thing is a tank.:P

It still works lol. I hook it up every once in a while for drunken Goldeneye and Perfect Dark with friends. My PS1 also still works. Only console that ever died on me was my old 360 which started chewing discs.

Mine still works too.:P

My PS1 is probably dead now, but last time I saw it, it was operating normally. I have a new PS1 now.

I thought you sold all your consoles. I didn't know you still had your N64. Goldeneye was awesome.:P

i saved for two years including birthdays and christmas' 

I asked Sony if they would mind sending me one so I could 'test' it, and they said sure. Then they hired me as a employee.;|

None of that happened.:P

IT should have! 

I'm actually in the process of trying to become president of Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo so I can be the most powerful man in gaming! Sadly, it is not going well.bugbag

Kickstarter! Go to Kickstarter :3 

I don't know, I have a feeling Microsoft will be promoting me to CEO of the company. Right now I'm cleaning the floors... Soon, I'll be fixing Xbox One.;)bugbag

i still think you should make a video pleading them to fire anyone at Xbox. You would get a lot of support

Funny you say that...

If you get there maybe I can have a job. Every ruler needs someone by their side with questionable morals who do the dirty work.......  ;)

I actually just got fired. I poured some cleaner on the old Xbox One prototype. When questioned about why I did that, I replied with, "I was trying to clean up the mess."

Oh well, I still have my job at Nintendo and Sony!:D

@Kman: Wow, I didn't know that. Amazing when you think about it.

The xbone is now on a greater course to flopping than it was before. They're changing too much hardware this late in the game. I've seen some places online saying they might just repeat the red ring of death thing that the 360 had.

In brighter news, they recently confirmed that the kinect doesn't need to be connected all the time.

It's like they had no clue in what they were doing

I still say the Red Ring of Death isn't as common as people say it is. My original Xbox is still going!:x

That's great news! The second part I mean.:P

I heard a Xbox 360 got it in one week. I also heard a PS3 only lasted a week, so they're about equal to me in terms of reliability. Both are crap in that regard.:P

N64 dominates them both because it's a tank!:evil:

My friend's 64 doesn't always work :oKman5507

Sometimes it doesn't turn on when we flip the power switch. Trying again makes it work sometimes.Kman5507

It isn't as common as people say it is. I think the xbox's fail percentage is only a bit higher than the ps3 or wii if I remember correctly.Kman5507

Nope, it really is. 23% is really high...

Nintendo have built tanks for consoles more often than not. I remember once my buddy's PS2 fell on his GameCube from on top of a TV and the GameCube still worked fine, the PS2 wouldn't turn on lol.PublicNuisance

I could literally take my N64 and throw it as hard as I can, and I bet it would still work normally. It would probably hurt me more than the console.:P

Well the PS3's is high too. I thought they were closer though...Kman5507

The PS3 went down a lot after the first year. 360 continued until they released the slim

I know that's not true. They fixed it before the slim came out. I don't know how much before, but they did fix it before :P
