I was born in the 2000s, I’ve heard of the PS2 but never had one in my life (although I had original Xboxes in my life so maybe I just had the weird family). I had a PS3 growing up, and a few of my friends had xb360s, but then I moved to PC.
or at least that’s the ones that were kept around long enough for me to get my hands on them. I haven’t seen any old consoles IRL outside of that, or at least not any that I remember 😆
Since they had kids i’ll list the systems I (or shared with my siblings) own
dsi
Wii
3ds
Switch
PS5 (I don’t see the appeal tbh)
Gaming PC (played nothing but Minecraft for about 2 years)
Steamdeck (LCD, OLED)
GBA I modded with a LCD screen, but that was like a year ago so I don’t rly count it
Tried a friends switch 2 and it’s pretty cool but the fact my steamdeck has over 100 of my PC games WITH SAVES just makes the entire console seem kinda silly. Also there’s no soul to it which makes it even more unappealing :/
if I were to get a “console” nowadays it would probably be either a steam machine or a PC from secondhand parts in steam big picture
edit: worth mentioning I’m gen Z (2007) and my parents are early millennials
Who hasn’t seen a PS2? That must be a very young person.
