My first new console was the SNES. I remember opening it up that Christmas morning, feasting my eyes upon what would eventually lead to poor grades and an addiction that would span 20 years. It came with Super Mario World, and my parents even threw in Super Mario Kart. Best Christmas ever.

What about everyone else?

I had one of those when I was a kid, but I don't remember opening it or anything. I think it was bought the Christmas after I was born for my sisters.

There's a long jump in 8-1 on Mario. I was sitting on the bed and actually did the jump and physically jumped with it, crashing on the floor. I think I was like 3 or so.

I got the SNES with Mario Kart but for some reason sold it,only to buy it back a year or so later at a profit. Remember buying a Master System II around the same time too.

Thats the first "NEW" I can remember. We had an atari 2600 but not sure how new it was, as I was young as FUCK.

Super Nintendo was the first new one. We had a Sega Master used and eventually a NES used. Moved from Super NES to PS1, PS2 and then Xbox 360. All of those have been new.

Same thing, just different name. Sort of like the NES was the Famicom in Japan.

I'm thinking my parents had the NES before I was born, so I guess the SNES with Super Mario World. Though I did go through multiple NES's that I remember being given, but the SNES was the first brand new one that I didn't have before I remember getting.

Not sure, I am not sure if my SNES (gift) or my PS2, which I know was new.

Thinking back, I have my doubts that the SNES was new. It had the box and all, but came with like 15 games so I doubt my family spent that much on me unless it was second hand and they got a good deal.

I know my PS1 was second hand as well, that came with 26 games :D

I said NES, but if it counts, Commodore 64 was the first new "console" I had.

First new console was the first NES, with the Mario/Duck Hunt bundle.

Before that I had an Atari 7800, but that was used.

That Atari had the worst controllers I've ever used, the buttons and joystick felt as though they were resting in Jell-O - no responsiveness whatsoever.

Exactly this answer. Word for word. Except without the capital "A" in Mario.

New as in getting it when it first came out? Or just being able to open the box? I don't think I ever got a system right when it came out.

First new product I opened was an NES with Super Mario Bros, Duck Hunt and Powerpad with track and field.
