So I bought my first console today. My first gaming system was a Nintendo DS Lite but I don't think of it as a console. For me console is something that You hook up to Your TV and play. So now I own...wait for it...wait for it...WAIT FOR IT...Super Nintendo Entertainment System! I bought it for a low price (31€) and now I can enjoy the timeless classics without emulating them. Well, the games cost quite a bit though so I need to stick with the Stunt Race FX that came with it.


Some crappy game that was really really cheap. I hope to get 0.01 levels for it so I can get back to level 5 (Currently 4.99 :/)

My first console was the Wii (my brother had other consoles before but this one was 100% mine), well worth it. If I had moneyz I would get a 3DS right away :)

There is a way to play them using external hdd or flashdrive. It's legal if you own a retail copy of the game anyway.

Is it able to read save files in the memory card? If so I'll be start searching.

As far as i remember, the memory card gets a software (a few kilobites) which enables it to run games, music and videos from other sources then cd/dvd. A few games will not work with this method.

I've heard of something similar in the past, but this software would have to be installed by cd/dvd or by having a memory card reader for pc.

But I might be wrong so I'll search a bit. Thanks tho :)

easiest way if you know someone who has this file on his card. Then you can simply insert both cards in the same ps2 and use this software's file manager to copy the other's file on your memory card. I think there is a bunch of memory cards like that on ebay.
Nothing special, they just copy the file over the new memory card and sell it with a small profit.

Congratulations!
I've also bought my first console in 1989 and it was a Nintendo Entertainment System 8-bit too!
Now you've got to play Earthbound!

The price isn't that appealing...Maybe I need to get Super Ufo 8 and download all of the ROMs :/

It is a quite expensive one... if I didn't care for boxes and manuals, I'd just hoard every car boot sale I could go to :>

Kudos on the buy! My first console was a ps2. The DS is a console by the way, no matter the way you look at consoles.

Did a quick search and you need more than a dollar to get to level 5 again. I'd suggest any 10 dollars or more bundle game.

sweet, my SNES is still working, has holes and rattles but still works, shame that here where i live games are pretty expensive, even some shitty forgotten game or a very common game start at 30$ :S.

Congrats and if you want a fun game play TNMT Turttles in time.

Love me some SNES. Finished playing through Chrono Trigger recently and decided to start FF3 again(the US FF3). Throw in other classics like Zelda, F-Zero and even quirky titles like Uniracers and you have one of the most replayable systems to ever exist. If you can find 3 other ppl and a multitap Super Bomberman is the shit.

good buy, having a snes is like having a brick-stone probably sticks with you forever unless you froget it somewhere

would've recommended a Nintendo Wii Console ... those are insanely easy to install a custom
firmware on and "get all games incl some old games "for free" - tried a lot of games ... but ended
up playing maybe 4 - ripped those even straight from my few physical game copies
(zelda skyward, new super mario bros, s.mario galaxy1, metroid corruption)

It's a option, but there no better experience than playing in the console itself.

If you count it as a console, mine was the TI 99. Which is sort of a console in that it plugged into the TV via an RF modulator. Plus, it had a built-in hotplate to keep your coffee or food warm.

My first console was a PS2. Years and years of fun. Then I got a Wii, which was good too. Then finally graduated to gaming PC.
Congrats on the purchase!

I had one of those chinese SNES rip-offs back in the day and PSX after that. Nowadays I have been thinking of getting myself a PS2 since PSX is getting slowly becoming outdated. I have also enjoyed Game Boy Color for which I had MicroMachines 2 and Robocob, sadly I could not save so I have never managed to finish any of them.
