Then got GB, N64 and GC. All pretty soon after release, in fact the GB was trade only Preveiw before they were in the shops.
Not interested in GBA, don't like the screen, or the old games converted, (obviously they are some of the best games ever, but I've played them all to death years ago). I also can't stand THPS on the tiny screen, impossible to play properly, IMO).
All have had stunning games, MARIO 64 is all time favourite.
Very hard to pick a favourite console?
Opininons Please?
I remember playing SF2 for first time on SNES (after playing the Arcade), there had been never been anything on a home console / computer to compare up til that point. Good times.
I was playing a Friend's Donkey Kong Junior (G&W) for the first time, over Christmas, once you get the timing you can race through it, pure timing and knowing the movement patterns, not classic gaming, but still very good fun.

My favourite? Probably the SNES. A golden era of gaming.

Come to think of it, I have one of them aswell and it was my first. You guide DK jr up to save someone in a cage from some big ape (DK?). You have to swing past all these obstacles.
After that, I did the works.

My favourite has to be the GameCube. My collection is slowly becoming the ultimate collection of GC games. Wahoo!
