I think that was actually the controller for my first console XD I don't even remember where it came from. After that I think my parents got us a Playstation (the original one) one Christmas, but I was still primarily a PC gamer. Decades later when my partner and I moved in together we kept buying Playstations. I think the latest one we have now is a PS5. J eventually got old and stopped gaming completley, I remained primarily a PC gamer but then reduced to only playing Minecraft with sibling dearest, and the kids also remain primarily PC gamers (though the boys take the Playstation controllers sometimes as they apparently work better for some of the games they play which then annoys their sister when all the controllers are flat or gone XD).
