dad thinks videogames are evil so it took a lot of convincing to make him let me get a genesis. then it broke so i went to get a replacement and N64 was the same price so i got one of them instead. then i fixed the genesis and traded it to my cousin for a playstation (he had 3). he never played the genesis so he gave it back. by then, dad was starting to be a bit more leanient about videogames so i got a dreamcast

I've played the first 2 of those games, and they are awesome! (I beat Jill in about an hour or so) :)

The first gaming system I was my Gameboy Color. I didn't use it much (The games were awesome though, Pocket Bomberman and Wario Land II) until I got Pokemon Blue.

A year or two later, I got an N64 for Christmas.

BUT, I have been gaming before that. I first used a computer at 18 months (well not really USING it), and when I was around 2 I played lots of edutainment games, the Tank game on the old old Macs, and a Carmen Sandiego game I sucked at (but liked it anyway). I also played games like the arcade Bust-A-Move before getting a system of my own.

Probably. I remember it being black and shaped like a typewriter.
