    Which consoles did you grow up with?

    One of my sisters got a SNES for Christmas - that was in 1994 I think, so I was about 3 years old when I started gaming.

    The first game I ever played in my life? #Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster Busts Loose! (as far as I remember)

    Repeatedly beating #Goof Troop with her in as little as 1:30 hours is still amongst one of my most cherished childhood memories.

    We had no fucking clue what you're supposed to do in Link to the Past, though.

    ##Super Mario Kart was THE shit back then, amazing racing game, co-op was super fun.
    This, #GP-1 and #F-Zero started my lifelong fascination with racing games.

    Some of my other favorites I enjoyed as a kid: Pilotwings, Killer Instinct, the Lion King, Mario is Missing, Crash Test Dummies and Po-pu-motherfucking-lous and #Road Runner's Death Valley Rally.

    My three all time fav SNES games were and always will be #SimCity (SNES), #Theme Park and #Secret of Mana, which I played for countless hours as a kid (and still do occasionally, over 20 years later).

    Good times.

    :)

      Editing … My uncle left me his PS1 with #Tekken 3 and #Time Crisis (and a light gun) when he went away to work in Mozambique for a while. I think I must have been 5 or 6. #Gran Turismo, #Spyro the Dragon, #Croc, #Rayman and #Tony Hawk's Pro Skater were my other childhood games. Good times indeed. It's strange we're about the same age but started out on different gaming generations.

      Editing … The first console I ever owned was the N64 circa 1997 or 1998, then in 2001 my uncle bought me a phat PS2 for my communion and seven years later I joined the MS camp with the Xbox 360 in December 2008 :-)

      Editing … Almost everyone I know went from PS2 to 360, PS3 was just too expensive at first and Halo and Gears plus third party games gave 360 an awesome first few years. I'm back with Playstation again now though, I got a PS3 when they stopped being insanely expensive and I'll probably get a PS4 when I switch to next gen.

      Editing … ... I've owned a slim PS3 since 2010, bought a white Gamecube and Alienware x51 in 2012, 2013 white Wii and white Wii U and PS4, 2014 Slim Vita White. I'll probably get a XB1 next year. Oh and sometime in the late Nintenties my parents bought me a used #Sega Gamegear. My sister owned a Mega Drive/Genesis and the only time I played the PS1 was when I was at a friend's house (Tomb Raider > Mario 64)

      Editing … Super Nintendo, N64 and Game Boy (Pocket!) for me. :) I started out just watching my brother play The Lion King and Super Mario World, and my first games were OOT, SF64, Diddy Kong Racing, and Pokemon Red.

      Editing … NES. I think my brother got it Christmas '87? Maybe it was for a birthday or something, I can't remember. I was still really young then. The games he got with it were Super Mario Bros. and The Goonies II. We rented much more games than we owned but we had the must-haves that Nintendo Power hyped up, like TMNT, Zelda, Castlevania, Batman, whatever. We also had G.I. Joe which I loved and other random stuff. My brother's friend had a Commodore 64 and I really loved the games on it. I wanted a computer but my parents weren't into it, our household didn't have one until the mid 90s.

      Editing … I grew up with the #Mega Drive. It was an amazing system, with some of the most memorable games i've ever played. Whether it beat the SNES or not is another thing, but the Mega Drive was indeed a beast with some really great games. The first game i've ever played was #Last Battle, it is still to this day one of my all time favorites just because of my personal experiences with it of trying to beat it but never couldn't. And now I can beat it with my arms tied behind my back :P

      Editing … I grew up with SNES, PS1 and GameBoy. The next console I bought was the GameCube (so I skipped the entire N64 generation and I couldn't care less about that. Besides Mario Kart 64 there are no N64 games that I find interesting and I think the N64 controller is awful). The GameBoy Advance SP was the next GameBoy I bought. Most of my SNES/PS1/GB lists consist of childhood games.

      Editing … @Waluigi Fan I'm confused, if you had a PS1 how did you skip the N64 generation? Those two are from the same gen.

      Editing … Oh, you're right. I meant just the N64. I also skipped the GameBoy Color and the first version of the GameBoy Advance.

      Editing … Before I had a system, I played games on my sister's ps1 and NES. The first games I remember playing were Twisted Metal III, Silent Hill, Final Fantasy VII, Super Mario Bros., and I think Gradius and Bubble Bobble. My first system was a ps1 I got for my 5th birthday, and I got my first game at the same time, A Bugs Life (the gameplay's a lot more unique than in Banjo Kazooie). My favorite game growing up was Spider-Man, but after a while it became Silent Hill. During my childhood I broke two ps1's and almost broke a third. But then I got a PS2 at least a decade ago, and it still works just fine. For a while, Silent Hill 1 and 2 were battling it out for my favorite game, and SH2 won. I didn't think a new game would claim the number one spot for a very long time, but during my third playthrough of Persona 3, I said fuck it and put it as my number one. And at the beginning of my fourth playthrough, I said fuck it again and made the score a 10/10. My first Nintendo system was a DS Lite I liked as much as my PSP. Eventually I got a 3DS and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D became one of my top ten games. I've never owned a Microsoft system nor wanted one. Technically, I don't own a PS3, X360, or a Wii. Our PS3 is actually Kyle's, though I've downloaded quite a few games on it. This has been a brief history of Nogg gaming.

      Editing … The first games I ever played were Aladdin and Super Mario All-Stars on my dad's SNES. I mostly watched my older sisters play (because they wouldn't let me) and it wasn't until I got the GameCube that I finally had a system of my own. I also played a ton of Super Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie, Kirby 64, Super Smash Brothers, and Donkey Kong 64 with my siblings on a family friend's old console. I remember that I reset my saved files by accident a couple of times on the N64 because I was really little and I couldn't read the menus lol. :) My uncle also gave us his old PS1 Slim around that time (after he upgraded to a PS2) and I played games like Crash Bandicoot 2 and Spyro the Dragon. We never had a memory card for the PS1 though, so we would beg my parents to let us leave the console on overnight so that we could continue our progress the next day. It's kind of funny to think that I was playing SNES and N64 while everyone else my age had PS2's.

      Editing … Started with Atari 2600 (don't remember the names of the games), NES (Super Mario Bros. 3, Solstice and PLENTY of rented games) and GameBoy (Tetris and Pokemon machine), but I grew up with the PS1 (MGS, Tekken 3, Crash Bandicoot Warped, CTR and Driver were the games I played religiously), 2 (MGS2&3, Jak trilogy, DOA2, Baldur's Gate: DA and Midnight Club 2 were the games that spinned the most) and Xbox (Fable, Halo, DOA3 and Splinter Cell were the most played). Xbox and PS2 were beasts!
