What was the very first computer/console you owned?

Vectrex was the only console I owned up until I got a 360 (Then eventually also a Wii and a PS3)

First computer was a Commodore 64. Amiga 500 came next, followed by a long line of various PCs and Macs.

My first computer was an Apple 2e with a 64kb extension! Very Happy

I spent countless hours playing on it for years and I thought it was the best gaming machine ever made until I saw a friend's brand new Atari ST running Populous! (no friends of mine had a NES or a Sega)

After that I played on PCs.

My very first console was a gameboy Micro.

Our first was Pong if that is considered a console.

Then Intellivision. To this day, Intellivision football is one of my favorite football games of all time.

My family had a Commodore VIC-20 when I was a child and it packed up when I was about nine so my memories of that time are very vague. I made up for the loss a few years ago when I discovered eBay and the Mega-Cart.

Philips Videopac. I think it was known abroad as the Odyssey system.

Well, the cartridges covers art was great. Embarassed

I had the poster that diplayed them all, on my door.

The Spectrum+ & +2, along with the 2 Amigas' are all this years purchases and get more use than the gaming PC I built lastyear.

First computer: Amiga 500. I love it immensely.
First console: the original B/W Gameboy. I love home consoles, but this is the only handheld I like and respect. Every other handheld is a waste imho (NeoGeo pocket color had potential but not enough games). The original Gameboy was amazing though, I really love it

No thanks. Too much sentimental value! (Unless you are an eccentric millionaire who wants to pay a ridiculous sum).
