Random 60: Game systems | Favorite on Viddler.

As it stands I have, setup and working, an original Nintendo, Xbox 360 (which I use for Connect360), and a Nintendo Wii. The Wii is slowly replacing the original Nintendo completely while the 360 ends up being my media center more than my gaming console.

I never play games on my computer anymore, though I only played games on computers when I was a Windows user. I do play games on my iPhone but only when I have nothing else to do. Papijump!

Somewhere around here I have a Playstation too.

How many video game systems do you own? Do you use them?

      Great comment! I don’t do much computer gaming (since switching to Mac) so I’ve stuck to console gaming. I have never played Half-Life, so I can’t argue with you!

      Why all the empty bookshelves?

        The bookshelves are empty because we just moved into this place and the books are all still in boxes.

        We’re getting there though. Only a few boxes left.

  • I started with a Sega Genesis, then got an original Playstation, then a PS2, and now I have a Wii. At school, I only have the Wii, though I really don’t play it that much–it really turned out to be a disappointing system. The only times I ever really play it are when friends are over and they want to play Mario Kart.

    When I get back from Germany, I’m really considering getting a PS3, depending on what the price is.

  • Sadly, zero. My wife doesn’t see the need for a game system in our house when we have a computer that can play games. Also, she mostly sees games that are all about violence and doesn’t want that in the house with our daughter.

    At least I think that’s why she objects. Anyway, we don’t have a game system. But we both do play simple games (Tris, TapTap, Solebon, Scamble, etc.) on my iPhone. And I have Spore for my iMac.

    At this point, I still own an XBox, PS2, PS3, PSone, Wii, and a DS Lite. The systems I actually play on a semi-regular basis: PS3, DS Lite, and PS2 (My PS3 isn’t backwards compatible with PS2).

    I’ve actually been thinking of selling my Wii and the games because I don’t play it anymore. Maybe it’s time or maybe it’s because I have a PS3.
