What consoles do you have or had?
Game Boy
Playstation - sold!
Playstation 2
Game Boy Advance
X Box
PSP
Brother used to have a SNES too, we plugged it back in when his PS got stolen, talk about dated and slow!
I remember the site of the guy who had them all. Sad but very admirable! Does anyone have any import consoles?

Iain Young, I trace your mental instability back to the fact your parents went for a Dragon 32 instead of a Spectrum or C64!! It all makes sense now.
Consoles ?
Grandstand
Atari 2600 woody
SNES
Megadrive
N64
PS1
Dreamcast
PS2
GameCube
Will no doubt buy an XBOX360 or PS3 (or Revolution) - all depends on which games come out.

A friends bro in law brought back from Japan a NEO GEO console. He also brought back a Megadrive and MegaCD. The NEO GEO just blew the Sega away. The game cartridges were bigger than a VHS cassette and the controllers were near enough full size arcade box controllers. Think the games alone were a couple of hundred quid!!
I'm sure there was another really good console that we never officially got in the UK - PC something or something PC.
Atari Lynx was cracking for its time. Loved the X games surfing, and there was another where you were some future cop shooting robots etc etc....
Amigas rocked too!!! Great time buying an Amiga game, spend the week cracking and copying and then back to game to claim it doesn't work and swap it for another game - took them a couple of months before they banned us
edit - PC Engine never saw one in the flesh! NEO GEO on ebay still fetch £200+

Yep...
I still have a NEOGEO, NEOGEO CD, PC Engine and PC Engine GT (portable) at home.
I think I have owned most mainstream UK/USA/JAP console that has ever been produced at some point.
I have a bit of a fetish for Console gaming.
Normally having paid ridiculas amounts for stuff on initial release in Japan...... just to get the latest gadgets first. If I totted up what all this has cost me over the past 20 yrs of so, I would have a heart attack i'm sure.
I LOVE CONSOLES!!!!
Regards,
Shaun.
