    At what age were you when you first played a game using a console?

    As far as I can remember I was 9 or 10 before when I first encounter Console. My Dad often teased me about it, because he said I once thought console is a phone. And I tried calling Mom using it.

    At 6 years you were too young. I think right now you are so much used to it and you are also among the best and fastest game players.

    I think first time it can be really good experience. once we get used to then we can say that it can be something to consider like playing with the handheld.

    Yes it was tho. Being a kid was really nice and I just realized that recently. Back then, I was too excited to be an adult.

    I think console for the first time is a good experience. I think you'd not surely forget it from what I have learned.

    I think with new consoles being developed for VR. I guess we have lot to look forward for the future as well. Lot to learn and experience.

    Meh, I usually went at my own pace when playing video games. I wouldn't say I'm the fastest.

    I know many people who have been using the console from the start. And they seem to have got the control over the consoles and the aim is also good as well.

    Yeah, chances are they had years of practice and extra spare time on their hands.

    For me atleast the console usage experience was fun. I remember those days when the console was kind of simple and had no heat and boot issues. Now a days it is more complicated.
