What was your first NEW console?
 
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.

NES bundled with Super Mario Bros and Duck Hunt as a Christmas gift.

Gamecube was the first console I remember buying with my own money.

Swiss Ultimate 02-02-2012 03:08 PM

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.

CSL 02-02-2012 03:13 PM

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

Crazy Nick 02-02-2012 04:00 PM

My first new console was a SNES, it came with two controllers, Super Mario World and Super Mario Kart.

Razzamajazz 02-02-2012 04:08 PM

my parents bought an intellivision shortly after i was born. it wasn't exactly new but i loved that thing

Xero 02-02-2012 04:29 PM

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.

OLD FUCKER ALERT

El Fangel 02-02-2012 04:45 PM

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

Juan 02-02-2012 04:47 PM

Nintendo Entertainment System

Destor 02-02-2012 11:30 PM

N64, i had had other but this was the first i had bought in box

LoDownM 02-02-2012 11:32 PM

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

stultiloquy 02-03-2012 04:35 AM

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.

James Steele 02-03-2012 04:38 AM

Genesis with Sonic Spinball.

Nicky Fives 02-05-2012 10:25 PM

PS2...... could have been NES, but I don't remember getting it.....

Kapoutman 02-05-2012 11:09 PM

NES, with the Mario/Duck Hunt combo.

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

ozzman6669 02-06-2012 03:22 AM

original NES with Mario and Duck hunt, 2 controllers and the gun. Had an intellivision and a commodore 64 but I don't think they were new
