I Have all 3 systems and a psp. No DS as I am waiting patiently for the 3DS.

also my gamertag is shizalicious69


Lunaria

I generally find topics like these ones pointless. If I wanted to online battle someone I would just tell them over IRC/PM/etc.

Would work as a poll, for statistics. But meh.

I have a Wii and M-M-M-Monster Rig.

I find it curious when people have a gamertag, and then don't go by it on a forum.... but I guess I'm just old fashioned like that? idk....

I've been squishy for years, and I will be for some time. :P

Agreed. I go by my name EVERYWHERE, except some places (AIM, Steam) that block it because of "gina" (put 2 more letters in front).  :O_o:

I like to have variety. ive gone by the hunter, shizninja562. etc.

Zhs2

When it comes to informal stuff, I stick with Zhs2. When it comes to formal matters, I go by sitkoffe, as in my e-mail address. I have no idea how my Steam Community ID came to be sitkoffe, but thankfully I was able to remedy that easily.

As for actual game systems I could hold in my hands at this very moment, Gamecube, DSPhat, and GBASP. The beautiful, beautiful laptop in front of me is mostly self-explanitory. :3

Parabox

I have a Wii, an Xbox, an Xbox 360, a PC, a SNES, 2/3 NESs, some Plug-and-Play gay batteries thing and a GameCube. Still need to buy some decent games for my SNES and I'm maybe going to buy a Dreamcast someday.

Used to have an Xbox but sold it for lsd quite some time ago.

GF_Kennon

I have my SNES, that's all you need to know.

The Envoy of the Beginning

My laptop that I'm going to replace soon with a gaming desktop.

Also, I currently have an N64, Wii, PS2, PS3, and Xbox 360, though I don't use them that much anymore.

My name "Phazar" was originally created for M2K2, but now I pretty much use it for everything Metroid/gaming related.  Before that, I went by Toa Hero in some places, or occasionally my now-ancient youth handle Joeysammy.  Although I pretty much just prefer Phazar these days.

squishy_ichigo

If I'm gaming single player (aka pokemans) I tend to use the name Aku, short for akugyou. (aku by itself means bad, and akugyou means bad deeds or actions)
I very RARELY use squishy as a nick single playerwise, as it really has no aesthetic value to me.  More recently I have also used a few of the random words that have sprung up via irc: UnDeaDreD, jenpuren, etc.

Anything socially related I go by the nick you know and love me by, squishy! :D
I don't go by anything else, as I want peeps to be able to recognize me based on the nick.

The history of this nick goes back to high school, and before that I was not social, the internet wasn't as big, etc.  High school was really a turning point in my life, and I keep this nickname I received as a sort of memento.


Anywho to answer the question of the topic:

SNES, N64, Playstation, PS2, Gamecube, Wii, Sega Genesis, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Gameboy SP, and the DS have all graced me at one time or another.

atm I just have my wii, ds, and my computer though.  I left my SNES and N64 with my bro, and we shared the PS2. Everything else is no longer in my possession.

Been gaming most of my life, at least what I can remember of it.  Hell, I remember playing Mortal Kombat on my Sega Genesis when my little bro was born, 13 years ago. :P
I don't remember much from before that though.... oh well.

Smiley

I have a SNES, an N64, a Wii and two Game Boy Colors. And this computer I'm typing on.
I've also got a GBA emulator, a SNES emulator and an N64 emulator. Once I had a DS emulator but never understood how to use the touch screen on it, and also had Dolphin (GameCube emu) once, but got rid of it because I didn't get Metroid Prime to work. Thankfully, there's Metroid Prime Trilogy! :D

Young, wee whippersnapper!  I recall playing Galactic Plague, Harrier Attack, and Oh, Mummy! (among others) on my brother's 464.  He was 5 and I was 3.  I couldn't do a lot at that age, as I just wanted to copy him, but that was in 1983. :^_^:

If emulators count then I have a GC/Wii emulator.  :lol:

Silver Skree

#19
NES
Game Boy (1st-gen brick, spinach green)
SNES
Playstation 2 (mini)
Game Boy Advance (1st-gen, bluish-clear)
Gamecube (blue, w/Game Boy Player included)
DS (1st-gen, blue)
Wii (White)

I was a wee little thing back in the NES days. I played extremely kiddy games like sesame street on it. Pff. Didn't tackle Metroid 'till about a decade later. Also, beast at Tetris.

I had some great times on the Game Boy. Super Mario Land... yeeeeah. Again, Metroid for that system came to me much much later.

SNES... Here was the golden time of my childhood. I had a Game Genie, so I was in business. Super Metroid and Yoshi's Island were the best. SMW and Mario Kart were cool. Also included was DKC for a while and Uniracers. I enjoyed me some Uniracers, yes-sirree.

I made the SNES last for 2 gens, and got the GBA when it came out. I totally skipped N64, unaware of its existence. Fortunately, Metroid never graced that system so I didn't have to worry about that. My brother actually had a GBA before I did.

I got the first Gamecube though. I was all over Fusion and Prime when they came out. All over that shit. Also enjoyed Sunshine, Pikmin (YES), and Animal Crossing.

There's not much to reminisce about over the DS and Wii. Metroids, yarr.

devonodev

Lets see.. I have a:
SNES
Pokemon N64
Wii
2 Xbox 360s, one of them has a MW2 design
GBA
DSphat, that I got first day it came out :)
PSP
Gaming Laptop
...used to have a gold GB Pocket, and a Pokemon GB Color, but they got stolen :/

Hope this topic is still what I think it's about as I make this post... I have owned or still own a variety of consoles and handhelds. Those I haven't been able to actually own cause of lol-money I can emulate, making the amount of games I can and or have played even larger. I've been gaming since as far back as I can remember of this life I live at the moment...

[spoiler=Because this is lots of text, I guess]
In order of acquirement (except when at similar times or I just forget):

Commodore 64
Atari 1600 / 2400 / 3200 / ...think there was one more, but I forget the number
Nintendo Entertainment System (I've got several, none work to my knowledge)
Sega Master System
Nintendo Game Boy
Super Nintendo Entertainment System (several, both work)
Sega Genesis

*I only got to try the GameGear once, but I could always emulate it if I remember.
*I never owned a TurboGrafix-16, but I HAD played it at a friend's house. I also have an emulator for it now.

Nintendo Game Boy Colour (had a teal one)

*I did not own a Sega CD, but I've played a few of the games.
*I rented the Sega Saturn a few times, and genuinely wished I could have played more of the games on it.

Sony Playstation (I've owned 2 in my lifetime)
Nintendo 64
Nintendo Game Boy Advance (a darkish blue one)
Sega Dreamcast
Sony Playstation 2
Nintendo Gamecube

*I never owned an Xbox, but my cousin had me play the Conker "remake" on it a few times.

Nintendo Dual Screen "Phat" (was a beautiful dark blue)
Nintendo Wii
Nintendo Dual Screen "Lite" (also dark blue, to replace the one Nintendo couldn't fix)

*My cousin owns an Xbox 360 and I play it frequently.

Game systems I have NEVER had any contact with: Neo-Geo, Atari Jaguar, N-Gage, PSP, PS3

What I currently emulate:

NESticle (no longer)
JNES

After reading Hiroshi's post, I just remembered that i have a 3DO, it came back to me when he mentioned that lost era of the jaguar and such.
Only have a couple games for it, and I don't think it works anymore. Descent is one I know I have. There's also this odd fps with realistic rendered backgrounds and mafia guys/crazy clowns/ghosts/etc.

personitis

I've got an NES, N64, GC, Wii, GBC, GBA SP, DS.
The NES I don't think works anymore.
The N64's reset button was stuck for years until I merely messed with it about two months ago for five minutes.
My first GC decided to die in the sense that the eye quit reading disks...
and my Wii is hacked. Haven't bricked it yet (knock on wood).
My GBC went through some damage as I was young when I got it. It's been dropped down stairs and dropped in ponds and the beast still works! =D
GBA SP is probably one of my least damaged consoles... It's really only been dropped on something hard once or twice. Works wonders since the day I got it.
My DS has gone through quite a few stylus' and that's about it. Everything still works fine. Oh and there are a few scratches in the touch screen due to me playing Metroid Hunters a lot back when.

Hiroshi Mishima

Oh crap, I totally forgot about the 3DO. I never got very familiar with it, probably why it escaped my mind. Then again.. the Jaguar / Sega CD / 3DO / Turbo Grafix CD era is one I have few memories of. It was like a blur or something.. I know a lot of that stuff came out, and I heard about it.. but then it was gone. Even Nintendo attempted to join in, which caused the Sony Playstation to be conceived when Nintendo backed out on the deal.

Oh, and the reason I had to get a DS Lite... my DS's top screen broke. Or rather, the hinges did, and Nintendo said they couldn't replace/repair it, so they gave me a DS Lite and charged me another 10 bucks. I swear by the time I'd gotten the DS Lite I'd already basically paid for it.
