The poll on the average age of Goozex users had me wondering what the first console was that everyone owned.  I got a Sega Genesis Christmas of 1993 (when I was 10) along with Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Jurassic Park.  

 

I ignored the handhelds and more obsure systems (jaguar) to keep the poll at a reasonable size.

I accidently named the mastersystem, the Mega Drive.  I'd change it, but I can't seem to be able to edit polls without having to input everything again.

No Intellivision!?!?

tsk tsk...

 

My first 'console' was Pong, but I truly got hooked on the Intellivision. Then the NES eventually realed me in for the long haul.

I started with the Colecovision. I was 3 or 4 years old when we got it. I'm sure my father got it for himself to play but, I remember enjoying it.

With the exception of the wacky thumb disc controller, I thought everything about the Intellivision was incredible!  It was my second console.  My first was the Atari 2600.

SNES=my first and favorite

 

My parents had a 2600 that they took down from the attic a year or so before the SNES but I don't really count that.
