I was born in 1989 and my first gaming experience was the Sega Game Gear; my mom didn't want to buy me a Game Boy since it "wasn't in color". When I was seven I lived in an apartment building and made friends with a boy across the hall who owned a Super Nintendo.
I got one a year later but my mom ended up selling it on me when she got me an N64. For a little while I stuck to Nintendo systems but then I realized the PS2 matched my tastes so much more with their weirder titles. I loved the SMT series, Persona, Space Channel 5, Katamari Damacy, Gitaroo Man, Mr. Mosquito, and so on. They had the exclusives that wouldn't be on any other system and the backwards compatibility was a huge plus.
Nowadays... My game library becomes smaller and smaller with each new system. There's nothing I care about and all the stupid bells and whistles they make me pay for that I don't use are infuriating.
