I currently own a PC, PS3, PSP and a 360.

 

I have owned several spectrums (the bones of which I still have somewhere), Commadore C16\+4, Atari 2600, Amiga, an old Amstrad (came with the green screen, can't recall the actual name), SNES, Master System, Mega Drive (Genesis), Gameboy, Gameboy color, Dreamcast, N64, PSX, original Xbox and a few old PCs. That's it as far as I can recall.

What I own right now:

 

NES - There's image problems with some games, but it work.

 

NDS - Buy it used

 

PSP - Buy it used, I accidentally step on its screen and it broke :(

 

PS - Broken, I think it's the optic.

 

PS3 - Buy it new.

 

PC - What I use right now.

 

IBM thinkpad laptop - Good ol' reliable.

 

Old Toshiba Satellite laptop - From the 90s, broken, I wish I can fix it so I can bring it to a cafe and pull out this large monstrosity (well, it's more common back in the 90s) and use it nonchalantly.

 

Mobile Phone - yep

 

 

What I used to own:

 

N64 - I sold it, I regret it.

 

Sega Genesis - I don't know, do I really lost it or me mother keep it in a box or something.

 

Game Gear - Love it, fried it when I set the wrong voltage, now I can't find it, maybe it had the same fate as my Genesis.

 

PS2 - My (ex) best friend stole it.

 

Various old PCs - yep

In chronological order of purchase... NES, N64, GBC, 360, Wii, DS, PS3, PS2, PSP, and next month a 3DS.

I also have a Mac and an iPod Touch but I don't often use those for gaming.

I am surprised however that 25% of us own a 360 but only 10% with a PS3.

You're looking at the results wrong :P

The top chart has a ton of current and popular systems, the bottom one not so much. So the 360 is 25% of the bottom poll, PS3 only 10% of the top polls.

Personally I'd of made these two completely separate polls (on old place they were split as three on Current consoles, retro and handhelds, which would of made it much easier to read the results from)

What you need to look at is the actual count:

360 = 30

PS3 = 35

Wii = 27

 

PS3 is out top of the three.

PC kicking everythings butt at 41 :P

2 x iDevice, but no Android. Tut tut. :)

 

I've just got a PSP, PS3, DS lite and HTC Desire HD. I do have a PC/Laptop and I do play some games on it (mostly BSG Online) but I don't really consider it a gaming machine.

 

If you were commenting on my list. I have my reasons. I've had many androids, I have some fundamental issues with the way the devices are modified by carriers.

 

The only android I use regularly is the nook.

I am now the semi-proud owner of a PSPGo which I got for the grand price of Nothing.

 

 

 

This generation I got the Wii and the PSPGo for free. Wonder what the next generation holds. Truth be told, the Go isn't a bad device, it's actually pocket-sized in a good way. If online games were cheaper I'd have gotten into earlier. Though now that I own one, I might try to switch some games to digital which will serve a dual purpose when the games are emulated onto the NGP and I get to play them. However screw you Squeenix for purposely not doing a dual release, just to have some sort of final mix of all games released on the PSP this year just to be ported and rereleased for the NGP.

I couldn't vote PC only because I had to answer the upper poll aswell, so I ticked Gamboy because I used to have one. I'm happy with only my PC but some day i'm gonna get a portable console, perhaps the NGP, depending on its price.

I'd have been interested in a Go when I purchased my PSP but I wasn't ....BUT I'LL TELL YOU WHY!

First, I want my handhelds bigger. Even the PSP-3000 cramps up my hands after a while. The DSi XL is the first handheld since the Game Boy that feels good in my hands. It is for this reason I am optimistic for the NGP. Also, I'm too much of a collector. CDs, DVDs, Blurays, vinyl records, and games, I like having a good collection and showing it off on my shelf. Having the games as list on a screen that's in my pocket wouldn't have the same feeling.

That said, it would be nice to not have to decide on just one game when I leave the house.... or for that matter, not have to go and change UMDs when I'm playing PSP in the house, as I do most of the time (lazy, I know).

That... that was a lot more checking than I originally thought it would be.

 

NES > SNES > N64 > Gamecube (which I think I forgot to actually check...)

GB (original, pocket, and color versions) > GBC > GBA (original and SP) > DS

Genesis > Saturn > Dreamcast

PSX > PS2

XBox 360

NeoGeo Pocket Color

 

And my one regret was not picking up that Atari Jaguar and like, 10 games, that I saw at a KB Toys outlet for something like $50... *sighs*
