Just a fun thread for people to chime in what systems they played a decent amount on or bought. No worries if it was a family purchase and everyone played. It doesn't have to be something you personally bought. Even include handhelds!
Looking back, I think I did well with consoles, but myself and our family back then never got a Commodore or Amiga..... which were the best for computer gaming in the 80s. Apple was meh.
Never had a Dreamcast either. At that time, it had the best sports. The transition from PS1 to PS2 was painful as the sports titles were lousy, yet DC had 2k NFL, NBA and NHL.
Consoles
Intellivision
NES
Genesis
SNES
PS1
PS2
360
X1
Handhelds
Mattel football
Mattel baseball
Computer
Apple II
PC (XT, 286, 386, 486.... the last rig I had that was good for games was a P3 800mhz with a GeForce card I bought somewhere around 2000)
After the P3, I just bought laptops with no interest in PC gaming as I focused on PS2 and then 360 and now X1
