    I really like the NES, it was the first console I owned but I think tis successor, the SNES was truly the best console ever.

    Nintendo was the only gaming console I owned (unless you also consider Tamagotchi a gaming console)

    It's difficult to name just one! 10 years old seems like a long time ago, but it would still include the original versions of the PS4, Wii U and Xbox One.

    If I could pick just one, I'd go with the Nintendo GameCube.

    PS1 had a lot of good games, but the graphics did not age well. We are lucky many games got remaster

    I have the Super NES Classic Edition. It's a neat way to play SNES games on modern TVs!

    Yep. I still enjoy some of the old games though like digimon rumble arena and chocobo racing

    In my head the PS2 just came out, can't believe PS4 is over 10 years old!

    I had the NES, PS1, and GameCube during my childhood. If I were to choose, I would pick GameCube because my favourite games are on that console.

    Seriously I loved on Pokemon Red and Blue on the gameboy color, to the point that I purchased a wall adapter instead of wasting tons of battery. Everyone was jealous of my wall adapter so I could play all the times.

    I got a Steam Deck at launch, barely used it, but these days, I've been playing lots of 'retro' PS1 and GameCube games that I never had a chance to play as a child. It's great that I can pick it up, play 45 mins when I have time, and then pause it until next time.

    The biggest issue is rememebering what happened before I put it down after a few days, weeks, etc.

    I still have a Persona 4 playthrough thats a chapter before the end of the game, sitting there in its save state for almost 2 years.....I know its end game grinding but I really don't want to grind lol
