First console was sega genesis. First launch console was N64.
Then, Original Xbox, Xbox360, Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox Series S, GameCube, Wii, and countless handhelds.
Got the Xbox Series X a little over a year after it came out, but that was a supply issue. Would have bought the series X instead of the S if it had been available.
I also have built several gaming computers in that span. And I still own all of the consoles, or a family member is using one.
No regrets, except that we used to have to trade in games to get new ones, so I don’t have a lot of the games I played, and that is a bummer.

@Highwaymenace also had a PC in the house since the early 90s. Had to use MDOS to play Sesame Street.
