Feel free to post some stories about your consoles, or anything that comes to mind.

I'm a portable gaming nut.

My List:
PSP 3000 Model
PSP 1000 Model
XaviX (Google it. A motion controlled console)
Nintendo DS Lite
Nintendo DS Original
Game Boy micro
Game Boy Advance Original
Game Boy Color (My first system)


I remember the first time I got a game system. It was my purple-transparent Game Boy Color with the game Tetris. I had no clue how to play tetris at the time, but I enjoyed moving the blocks.

I still have my GBC, and it's in great condition. I used to use a snake light attachment:



How the hell did I see to play Pokemon on that screen with a purple colored light? I shall never know. I used to hold the system in a slanted motion, that way the light wouldn't directly hit the screen.

I have a DS Lite, which I enjoy playing sometimes.
My niece has a Wii, and she enjoys playing the games, and beating me (oh, the shame of being beaten by a 6-year old, )

In the past, I've had (in no particular order):
Several Game & Watches
Gameboy Colour
Spectrum +2
Spectrum +3
Sega Megadrive
Playstation
Amiga

I currently own none. I'm all about PC gaming now.

But I've owned:

Commodore 64 (not really a console, but may as well be one) - Commando, Little Computer People
Amiga (same as above...kinda) - Mortal Kombat 2
Sega Master System - Alex Kidd ftw
Sega Genesis - Streets Of Rage 3, Rock 'N' Roll Racing, Sonic
Super Nintendo - Mario, Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger
Game Boy Color - POKEMON. In fact, after this post I'm gonna go play it.
Playstation - Final Fantasy 7, Metal Gear Solid, Gran Turismo
(Se)Xbox - Fable, Morrowind, Halo
Playstation 2 - Timesplitters 3, Grand Theft Auto: SA, God Of War

I have no plans to buy a next gen console, I've been lucky and most of the games I want to play have been ported to PC.

I too have got the urge to break out Pokemon Ruby for my GBA micro. Though I don't have any GBC Pokemon games. I used to rent them.
