-
(1982) I acquired it in 1994 as a gift from my uncle.
-
(1995) I acquired it in 1996 as a birthday present from my dad. He bought it from Wal-Mart and when we opened up the box, the disc drive was full of sand. He took it back and demanded an exchange - they thought he was trying to pull a fast one on them. It took over 2 hours to finish the return and buy a legit PS1 but that my party had already when he returned. Poor guy. My dad is awesome.
-
(1998) I acquired it in 1998. Schoolyard Pokemon battles, yo!
-
(1999) I acquired it in 2000. I really enjoyed my time with this guy and his little buddy, the VMU memory card. I was so pissed when I heard about its death, I sold it to an asshole friend for his used PS2 games. Damn.
-
(2000) I acquired it in 2001. This ended up being my favorite system ever mainly because it was with me through those awkward/awesome high school years. My DVD collection became a make-shift video rental store in college and I actually met some good friends because of this.
-
(2001) I acquired both the regular GBA in 2001 and the GBA:SP in 2003. The SP version traveled with me to Japan and was the best handheld ever.

(2005) I acquired it in 2010. Dissuaded by red ring nonsense, it took a while for me to get a hold of this system. Once I finally did, it became my go-to console until...
-
(2006) Acquired Christmas 2012. If only the original and subsequent SKUs had gotten to a point where I could feel comfortable slapping down my debit card earlier...
-
(2006) I acquired it in 2007. A system that made sense for a college apartment.
-
(2008) Acquired 2009. Only one game has gotten me to spend money: Game Dev Story. That game ate up two days of my life.
-
