Try to post things that create discussion. We want people to feel engaged and feel their voices are heard, rather than to be a place of disposable content.

First console was a Sega Genesis that my dad got Mom when they were in college.
Grandpa got us a playstation at some point, and I got a gamecube sometime in elementary school.
Didn't get a new console after that until the PS3. At some point, it broke, but was under warranty, so we got a new one. The new one was a newer model (not sure if screwup or dad just paid extra for it), and wasn't backwards-compatible, so we got a PS2, a generation late.
Got a Wii, which was used mostly by my parents and siblings. Somewhere around this time I tried to buy Portal for PS3, but they only had it for PC at Gamestop. At this point I joined the PC master Race.
My little brother currently has a PS4. I've never touched the thing, partly because of my PC games, partly because I live a few hundred miles away from him.
In hindsight, the only change I would make is PS3->Xbox 360, and move the PS2 to when it was actually released.
