Master System II with Alex the Kid built in! Those were the days. Kids now days don't know what real games are.

My cousin gave me his Atiri when I was like 8. Back then it was the coolest thing ever and because of it, I now wear glasses because I always sat up under the tv for hours playing pac-man.

Technically not a console but the first gaming machine I had was the original ZX Spectrum Posted Image My first actual games console was the SNES I think.

Exactly the same for me too, the above was my first computer, don't know if you would classify it as a console. My first real console was the SNES.

I loved Horace goes skiing, Daly Thompsons decathalon and tapper.

My first console was the PlayStation, but the first one in my house was the Intelivision. And yes, we did have the Intellivoice add-on too (the only voice games I remember playing are Space Spartans, and B-17 Bomber).
