Lets see who has the oldest console.

ill start, i have a sega master system, for those who cant remember it (and i wouldnt guess so, it was before we were all born) and here is a pic of it i found on the net

I have an Atari (not sure what model), but it's really old. It's made of wood! (Or wood replica plastic).

I cannot take a picture or something of it as it is in the loft (cannot get to it at the moment).

roughly when was its release, cos mine was in the early-mid 80s

Found it by Googling it.

Turns out it's an Atari 2600. Click [url=http://www.atarimuseum.com/videogames/consoles/2600menu/2600menu.htm]here[/url] for more information. Click on the links at the bottom for more info and pictures. It turns out it's from the late 70s (I think it's '77).

Anyway, more links from that site (bout my console) - [url=http://www.atarimuseum.com/videogames/consoles/2600/atari2600.html]here[/url].

So I beat you!

I have a Sega Mega Drive 2! Though i know the master System is alot older! Also the GameBoy original was released in the mid 80'S i think. It was the first "Hand-Held" console, and i have 2!

I'm still winning!

The Game Boy (now called "classic") was the first ever hand held console. Infact, it's only recently that you have been able to get any hand held console not by Nintendo - PSP. They may be more, but very few people have heard of them.

[color=red:16008e76e3][b:16008e76e3] ...pong [/b:16008e76e3][/color:16008e76e3]

the natural clasic obsesive console game the eye cancer causeing, epalepce causeing classic :wut137:

i would add pics but it wont work

LOL, yeah, that's one of those Maplins kits, isn't it?

I'm not one to correct spelling, but I think epalepce = epilepsy.

I don't see how it will cause cancer, though?!?!

Radiation from the CRT perhaps?

LOL, yeah, but that's the hardware, not the game itself!

many gamers sat so close to the tv that the radiation was afecting there eyes

LOL, yeah, but that's not the game, it's the hardware. Oh well, suppose it doesn't really matter.

the game was the hardware realy so it did cause it

my dad used to have one of the old pong machines, wiv the little nobs on it to turn, didnt mean to sound dirty, to make ur paddle move up and down, but it is broken now, and thrown away, it was bigger than an xbox, lol, huge. And does everyone remember original pac man, well we cant really forget it wiv all the flash versions. The oldest game though is a two player game, kinda like asteroids, made by some uni students, its in the guiness book of records, u wud shoot each other to death. The problem was it was one of those old massive computers, which filled a room, and u had to have three people, two to play, and one to change the cards wiv the holes(the old disks basically). Games back then had no end, just kept goin.

Yeah, lol!

I think the Atari has pong on it, definitely has pacman.

As for the old game, are you sure, can you find any links or something.

i cant find a link, but it is in either 1998, 2000, or 2005, i think. dunno. look in them, u may find it. This is by memory, which is pretty poor

those numbers are years? Or are they the number of ur machine numbers?

Do I get to be joint winner, because I also have an Atari in the loft ;)

Yeah, lol! I don't think it's really a competition, though.

yea well weve got a coffee table thing with a built in computer that plays this really naff game where u shoot stuff its from lyk early 80's, i think i win coz mines coolest and purple . . . .

i can see purple aint gonna win me this
