What system did you own before you bought your XBox or GameCube?
 

Hi,
Out of curiosity, I was just wondering what game console did people use to have before their purchase of the new gaming systems, ie. PS2, XBox, and GameCube. I used to own a Dreamcast before they decided to kill it. Still has many good games for it though. Shenmue rocks.

Had PS2
Sold PS2 (I thought it sucked)
Bought Super Nintendo
Bought Gamecube

Neo Geo Pocket and a Dreamcast.

I actually got out of console gaming for about 3 or 4 years after the quick painful death of the Sega Saturn. I tested the waters with the Pocket (which died quickly as well) and on a whim picked up the Dreamcast last summer. I love that damn thing.

Now I have the cube and I am in awe, but I am going to still play my DC, I have too many good games on that system.

GBA
Dreamcast
N64
PSX (stuffed under the coach)
SNES at my mom and dad's

N64
SNES
NES

N64
PS2

Now I own an XBOX too.

LOL, no fanboy loyalty. Just the games I like,..... and that's the way it should be.

currently dreamcast and ps2 before i got my cube. but i got a nes, snes, genesis, segacd, and a turbo graphix 16 back at my moms house that I need to ressurect next time I go visit

NES
GENESIS
N64
DREAMCAST

I got'em in this order:

1)PSX- I bought it for Castlevania and Final Fantasy 7
2)N64 - Mario 64 and Pilotwings ruled!
3)PS2 - Was scared I wasn't going to be able to get one later so I waited in line before the store opened to get one.
4)Dreamcast - After they lowered the price of the system to $99 and the games it was an incredible steal.....also the fact that I had $60 worth of amazon gift certificates I only got my DC for $40 the week they reduced the price

I just bought a Gamecube last week because Wave race and Super Monkey Ball are really awesome!! And I got it for Super Smash Bros Melee :cool:

I bought a PS2 at launch, but sold it two months later due to problems and lack of games.

I have mainly used my PSone and Dreamcast and of course my Game Boy Advance. Bought a Gamecube on Sunday and really like it. Don't know when I will get a PS2 or Xbox, but they will have to drop below $200 first.

Of course I still play my N64, Saturn, 3DO, SNES, Sega CDX, Neo Geo Pocket, and NES from time to time. :)
