Consoles
At the moment, what consoles do you own, and which of those do you still play with actively? What games do you tend to play on them, usually? Is there any game for these consoles that you are planning to purchase in recent future? How often do you find yourself cleaning your video game consoles?
Me--I've got PlayStation 2, Nintendo 64, Wii U, Xbox 360, and 3DS (used to have a set of DSi as well, but I've given it away for my sister when I'd gotten 3DS); former two are in my basement and no longer in use, but still play games on latter. I'm pretty satisfied with Wii U and Nintendo 3DS, and have some decent amount of games for them (some of which I've yet to finish, but will get around to them eventually, hopefully). As for 360, I'm planning to have it replaced with PlayStation 4 this Christmas. Cleaning--I find myself doing it once every couple of weeks. I really like keeping them looking new and whatnot. |
I own two (defective) Playstation 2s, A Wii, 3Ds, DS Lite, GBA, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, and A nintendo 64 and play them all actively. Except the defective consoles. Obviously. And the NES since it is currently unplugged. I would be here for hours if I had to list all the games I played on them though. Lets leave it at a lot.
One console I was going to buy would be the Xbox 360. But my mom told me she was going to be buying one for us for Christmas, so... There's that. I rarely, however, find myself cleaning my consoles. They usually work fine, and to me that's what matters. |
Consoles:
NES Nintendo 64 Gamecube Wii Wii U PlayStation 2 Xbox 360 Handhelds: GameBoy GameBoy Pocket GameBoy Color GameBoy Advance x2 GameBoy Advance SP Nintendo DS Nintendo DS Lite 3DS 3DS XL (red XY) I kind of have an SNES as well. It's actually my grandmother's, but I'm the only one that really plays it. I play my 3DS the most as I'm never really home, so handhelds are usually my gameplay method. I took my Gamecube over to my boyfriend's though so I was playing that a lot the past month. I've been playing my Wii U a lot lately during the time I'm home, mostly for Mario Kart 8 with Klippy. I've been using my SP a lot too for Sapphire and Final Fantasy IV Advance. I was playing a lot of PS2 during the spring semester and a good bit during the summer as well, so there's that. It really just depends on what I feel like playing as to which I play the most, but my 3DS definitely sees the most usage. It goes everywhere with me and I love the 3DS library. It's probably going to remain my favorite handheld for a long time. That spot was previously held by the GBA. As for cleaning, I don't do it as much as I did as a kid. I did it about once a week as a kid. I was really obsessive about it back then, as well as some other things. Though I'm not as crazy about it, I do make it thorough when I do it now. I had a massive cleaning session this summer, actually. I had the night off and spent about two hours cleaning off consoles, controllers, cords, and game boxes. Don't get me STARTED on those boxes! Disadvantage to buying used: stickers. JESUS LORD THE STICKERS. One hour was dedicated to those entirely. And the sad part? That was only boxed games. I completely forgot to go through my N64 cartridges. UGH. I should do that before the year is over if I can find the time, now that I think about it. |
Okay, I'm glad someone here already has more than me so I won't have the feel like the World's biggest hoarder, but here are what I have:
Home Consoles: NES SNES N64 PS2 Wii and I'll likely get a Wii U sometime soon. Portable consoles: Gameboy (technically my brothers, but I'll claim it just to add to the collection) Gameboy Pocket Gameboy Colour Gameboy Advance DS Lite 3DS XL Right now most of my gaming is done on the PC and 3DS. But I'll boot up virtually anything if I fancy playing something on it. Well with the exception of the GBA as it has no backlight and the games look better on the DS. With all those consoles it's pretty damn hard to keep my room looking respectable. Over the years I've sort learnt that it's best to only have one TV and only console out at a time. The last thing you want to do is have someone, particularly a girl, come over, see your room and there are two TVs, one just on the floor with like 5 game systems virtually stacked on top of each other, power boards in every corner of the room looking like they could set on fire at any minute, etc. etc. So if I'm in the mood for platformers, I'll have the SNES out and everything else boxed away in the closet. If I want some 3D action adventure, I'll do the same but with the N64. RPGs? I'll pull out the PS2, and so on and so forth. I probably spend as much time setting up and packing away consoles as I do playing any one individually, but I guess that's my cross to bear. I think part of the reason I love portables so much is that I don't have to go through the rigamarole of setting anything up. |
Consoles - PS3, PS4
Handhelds - PSV, PSP I actively play on everything but PSP due to having a huge backlog on the 3 gaming devices. I do not plan to purchase anything else in the near future... I might eventually pick up 3DS for Persona Q but... not sure when. |
Consoles:
NES SNES N64 Gamecube Wii Xbox Xbox 360 PSX PS2 Dreamcast Sega Genesis Handhelds: Gameboy Color Gameboy Advance SP Nintendo DS PS Vita I hardly ever clean any of my things but I play most of them (aside from the genesis and dreamcast because of lack of decent games) fairly often. I have cleaned my SNES before because it was technically my first gaming system and it holds a special place in my heart because it was a gift from my great-grandpa who died a few months after. |
Well, I have the following...
Consoles: SNES Nintendo 64 Gamecube Wii Wii U PS2 PS3 PS4 Handhelds: GameBoy Micro GameBoy Advance x2 GameBoy Advance SP Nintendo DS Lite x2 3DS 3DS XL PSP PS Vita Of all of those, I find myself playing my PS3, PS Vita and 3DS the most. I don't have many games for my PS4 and Wii U yet, and the rest of the consoles aren't connected to my TV, and it's a hassle getting them out unless I really feel like playing a certain game. I occasionally go back to my older handhelds - my Gameboy Micro is in my coat pocket; I like playing Sonic Advance on train/bus journeys. I play mostly JRPGs...which would be why my PS3 gets the most use. As far as cleaning goes, I'm constantly brushing dust off my PS4, PS3 and Wii U...they get very dusty in my room somehow; it's not THAT dirty in there. Even though my Vita is unprotected, I don't find that I need to clean the screen very often, and the same goes for my other handhelds. I do miss the days of needing to blow into the console and the cartridge to get it to work sometimes, though. xD |
Console: PS4
Handhelds: GBA SP (x2), DS Lite, 3DS, 3DS XL. |
I've owned a 3DS since 2012, a GBA SP since this year, and a DS lite since this year. I did own a different DS lite from 2010 to this year, but it had many flaws, so I threw it out. I am planning on getting a 2DS sometime next year.

Console:

Since I was pretty much hooked on Sonic, I bought every Sega console after. Shortly after I got the Genesis, I bought the NES. Most of my handhelds I bought for Pokemon and Mario game. I usually use my PSP or Vista for RPGS such as the Persona Series and Kingdom Hearts BBS, etc. I bought a Vita last year so I could especially get Tales Of Heats R. My Wii is homebrew modded so I can play lots of games on it. Usually uses it for family related gaming. And Xenoblade Chronicles and The Last Story. I got a PS3 because mass majority of RPG's were being released on it..and free internet. I also thought Kingdom Hearts 3 was going to be on PS3..but trolled by Square. I got a PS4 so I could get the new Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts. My Nintendo consoles are primarily used for Family gaming. Since it has games like Mario Party, Wii Sports, etc. Since my Father was strict about me playing games, I usually had to buy everything myself. Which really wasn't a problem. |
Console:
Xbox 360 Wii (Family owned) Planning: Xbox One Planning: Wii U (Sometime after getting Xbox One) Handheld: Game Boy Advance (does not work) PSP (been having problems) DS (original) 3DS I find myself mostly using my Xbox 360 and 3DS these days. Mainly being that most games I tend to buy now work on those systems. |
So far I only owned one console, which is PSone, I used to play much using it when I was a kid, and I still have it even though I don't use it anymore.
And speaking of handhelds, I have Gameboy Advance SP, Nintendo DS Lite and Nintendo 3DS XL. |

Consoles:
Nintendo SNES Nintendo 64 PS3 Handhelds: 3DS DS Lite GBA Our family has a Wii so it's not exclusively mine v.v I also used to have a Gameboy Color but the poor thing was left on my parents car and we drove over it. I miss it, but my boyfriend has his so I just play on that. I mostly use handhelds since the vast majority of my favorite games are for them (Ace Attorney, Pokemon, Zero Escape, Animal Crossing, Hotel Dusk, etc etc). I am starting to grow a nice little collection for the PS3, although the console that gets the most love from me is the N64. |
Consoles:
xbox 360 (only console in this list I still actively use) PS2 2 n64's Super Nintendo wii Handhelds: GBA nDS (the lite one that all had broken hinges that they needed to recall -_-) 3DS |
Let's see.... I have:
Snes N64 GameCube Wii Wii U GBA (gave away my GBC ;_; ) GBA SP DS DS Lite 3DS PS2 PS3 PSP Xbox Xbox 360 (I don't really play these ones as much. They were more like gifts. Still some sweet games on there!) |
Nintendo 3DS
PS Vita Nintendo Wii (No WiiU) Xbox 360 Playstation 2. I'm not really much of a console player. I prefer handhelds because I can take them every where I go. :3 |
Okay, in terms of consoles, I currently own...
SNES (no longer works, unfortunately) N64 PS2 Gamecube Wii PS3 Wii U PS4 I'm definitely more of a handheld gamer, I like to watch TV whilst playing games... but I still own quite a few consoles. In fact, my favourite game of all time, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door is a console game! The only two I play on regularly these days are my Wii U and PS4. And as for handhelds, I own... Game Boy Game Boy Pocket Game Boy Color Game Boy Advance SP (I have two of these, one's a Mario one) Game Boy micro DS Lite DSi DSi XL 3DS XL (again, at the moment I have two... one's in reserve from when I bought a Luigi 3DS XL) PSP PS Vita As you can see, I kind of have a lot of them. Like with the consoles, I mainly play with the latest two, my 3DS XL and Vita, but I do occasionally play GBA games on my micro (one of my favourite systems of all time for no reason). The 3DS is definitely my favourite gaming platform to date, though. |
