Were you a 'first time game player' like the box says? did you start gaming with an NES top-loader?

Ended up getting that after my original NES died.

I don't understand why the new design was for the first time game player. And no, I started on a toaster. Actually, I can't remember if I played the NES or the Atari (5200,I think) first.
>>2825885
Top-down design is what the original should have been. There would have been less breakdowns overall.
>>2825885
There should be a comma between "time" and "game".
First console I played was coleco vision, first I owned was pic related.
>>2825885
Atari 2600

Don't diss the toaster, man.
>>2825885
I didn't know anybody who had that faggy top loader.
First console I owned, I had a game boy before that
My cousin had a colecovision I'd play Burger Time and Zaxxon on before that

I looked on wikipedia and it didn't come out until October 1993.
First system I played on was SNES, first system I owned was a Gamecube.

This was my first console. I asked for a Super NES but my mom got me this instead. Probably because at the time it was only $50. All of the games came from her friends kids who had moved on to other consoles.
nope, had and still have, the good ol familiar gray box. i do want a top loader though for PAL games n shit
>>2825885
No. I had the old grey box. I got one of these later on, though.

That is totally not a Famiclone and is, without a doubt, an authentic Nintendo Famicom system.
I got this as my first console.
Every game played every time.
Also having a controller without sharp edges was awesome, though the button configuration needed a different slant.
i had the top loader. i can't remember if we ever had the original model or not. we never got a snes and went from an nes to playstation in the late 90s.
i can't believe how expensive they got

They figured out you can RGM mod them to look superior to any other NES. It raised their stock a bit.
>>2829607
Nevermind. I'm thinking of the SNES Jr.
IGNORE ME!
>>2829607
Is there anyone doing the mod now?
>>2825885
>did you start gaming with an NES
No.
I think it was because with the SNES a lot of the games presumed you were already a seasoned gamer, not necessarily in difficulty but in complexity. So they positioned the NES and it's simpler games as the console for newer players.
