my first gaming medium was a blue Nintendo DSi that was gifted to me by my stepdad when i first met him in the Philippines. apparently, when i first met my father, i was afraid of him, calling him a "ghost" because he was so pale LOL.

the most memorable game was Super Mario Bros, but i never finished it. i unfortunately don't remember what other games i had.... later i got my first console, the Nintendo 64, where i'd play Diddy Kong Racing, Rampage: World Tour, and GoldenEye007. i had many more games, but tbh, the aforementioned are the only ones i remember. the console was cool as heck too: it was translucent green.

then, i got an Xbox 360 where i'd play COD games, Minecraft, and Destiny with my stepdad. i sniper-shyat on doods in MW2 and AW as i was around ~5 years old LOL. i played so much Minecraft, but i never finished the game legit, but my building skills were sick. (i actually started playing Minecraft on an iPad). i even posted a Minecraft world-tour of my dad and i's creative world, and a tutorial on how to make a block that you can use as a chest via minecarts. i also played so much Destiny, but i was so BADDDD at it. looking back at it now, i was so clueless on how to play the game. i don't even know how i had fun playing Destiny because of how clueless i was....

oouuuu and i also played Halo 2, but i never finished it because it was too difficult, but the PvP was very fun.

what a journey i've had. for starters, i never got a hold of an actual "retro" gaming console. the earliest console my family owned was the ps3 and the xbox 360. to curb my wishes of experiencing an "authentic" retro gaming experience as best as i can with only emulators and a shoestring budget, i've amassed a relatively respectable collection of cheap off-brand retro controllers. the controllers i've owned so far range from nes controllers, snes controllers and even a gamecube controller.

for most people this would obviously be a major red flag since, well, they're cheap off-brand controllers, but here's the thing, they have usb ports... and that's it.

i've never owned or felt a real, authentic controller before, so i can't really say much on quality or feel. they feel alright, i guess. all i know is i got what i bargained for, and it works pretty well, they've stood the test of time for me and i've gotten pretty far with these controllers since buying them, and i plan to scour the internet for more of these controllers to explore even more consoles.

maybe one day i'll get an actual console, but it's up in the air since i can't find a good place to put it in.

My first console was a Wii I think, but my favorite console as  kid was my parent's old N64, I used to play the hell out of old mariokart 64 and Goldeneye 007. I still have it sitting in my room somewhere, I should see if it still works.

My first was technically the game Boy advanced, but I don't start caring about consoles until the Nintendo Wii/U. 

So I would say the Wii consoles were my first.

I had a N64, hoping to reclaim the stuff I had one day!

The games I had included Pokemon Stadium 1 & 2, Super Mario 64, and Mario Party 2 and 3! Those last 2 were my favs!
