I loved the 2600 because that was all we could afford when I was a kid. I liked the ColecoVision and Intellivision graphics better though. Luckily, some of my friends had both.
I like ColecoVision best, but it had an unfair advantage, coming out a full 5 years after the 2600 and 3 years after the Inty. It’s really generation 2.5, competing with the 5200. But man, those arcade ports were so impressive, and the expansion module to play 2600 games made it the best of both worlds.
I had an intellivision that my dad bought used off a coworker. My first console, I’ve got a soft spot for that one.
Colecovision was the bomb. Couldn’t afford it, but it was great!
I only ever had an Atari, so I’ll go with that.
Same. I remember wanting to try my friend’s coleco but it never happened for some reason I don’t recall.
