I only had about 4 games.
I remember enjoying some game where you could tear someones arm off, then use it as a club to beat other people. That's the only bit of any game I played on it that I remember.
Cor! I didn't have that one.

Oh, joy! 
Had a speccy and a commodore, enjoyed them both. But I loved my Snes. Megadrive was ok too, but not quite for me.
You're all lucky people. I had to wait until Playstation before I could get a console all of my own. Had the hand held Gamgear though if that counts.
I bought a Megadrive with my first student grant cheque. Micro Machines was my favourite game on it.
My older brother used to get/buy them. I think the Playstation was my first one too.
Yep, my older brother was the one who owned all the consoles!
(Except my neogeo.)
So they did have their uses then. 
I had a MegaDrive first, then bought a SNES as it had the best games.
ie MarioKart & Super Marioworld.

*high-five*
I used to have loads of Megsdrive games and when I got a PS1 I decided to give most of the games to my good friend at the time, I went on Ebay not long ago and relised 3 were very rare and sell for about £70 - £90 brilliant!
Anyone ever own a Jaguar (games console not the car). It was like an expensive sega saturn, never really kicked off.
Like all my old mobile phones, I keep my megadrive and PS1 in all the original boxes, safely in the loft.
Did anyone on here spend much time in arcades? I had a bit of an arcade addiction, between the age of 12 and 14. I just couldn't resist graphics and the colours, as they were so much better than those on my shitty Spectrum.
