I will have to go with the SNES since it's the console I really grew up with, even though I started on the NES I didn't actually own a console until the SNES was released.

I was almost 6 years old when it was released and got it while on a camping trip. I was the first person I knew to have it. When I first started playing Super Mario World I was amazed!

Still play retro games today, sold my collection though.
