My old Playstation, Playstation 2 slim, Playstation 3, Xbox, two NES's (one regular and one top loader), SP, and DS were all bought with my own money as well as the majority of my games and peripherals. Actually, I went in on half for the original Playstation and the top loader my brother bought, but I got Todd one for his birthday, so that sorta counts. They aren't cheap. ;[

I don't know what walmart you were at, but I bought my Wii for $250 plus tax at the Walmart where I live. And it was all my own money, so I wouldn't have to share it with my brother. I know it sounds selfish, but if I had shared it with him he would play it constantly and I wouldn't get a chance to use it at all. Of course, when I finally buy it he whines like crazy that he wants to share it, but he didn't even have enough money to split the cost. I told him absolutely not, and spent nearly 2 years worth of savings. Guess what happens next? Since I didn't want to share, my parents decide that they're going to get a "Family Wii" for the whole family. (Which is crap, because neither of my parents play video games.) So basically, my brother gets a Wii, no skin off his back, because he whined for several hours about it.

I have only bought my DS Lite with my own money. I would buy others but Christmas or my birthday always comes before I get enough money. :/

:0 I never thought you'd ever get a Wii, Krisp! But that is great! Maybe if and when I get decent internet we can play something together or something.

I've bought two consoles with my own hard earned money: my PS2 Slim (no longer have) and my Xbox 360, which I just bought this August with the combined money of my first paycheck and the credit I got from trading in that PS2 Slim.

I purchased my Game Boy Color, GBA and DS Lite all with my own money which in total comes up to about $375, which I suppose is a lot since I bought the first two before I had a real job.

My only other two consoles, my Genesis and my Gamecube I recieved as gifts.

It was bundled with Wii Play, another Wiimote, and another Nunchuk controller.

Nope, all full price systems I had someone else buy for me. I bought a N64 for $20 bucks, and about $200 worth of Wii and N64 games though.

The only thing that I have ever bought with my own money was my game boy advance sp. I can never usually save up to buy the bigger consoles but I get them for Christmas and Birthdays.

I only bought a GBA Micro with my own money that i earned from graduating High School.(I also bought a guitar.) My brother bought our XBOX360 and Wii.

I bought my GBA SP with my own money, along with all my GBA and DS games.

Grats on the Wii, though.

Can't remember buying a system. Nope. I normally have nowhere near enough and then, SHOOP DE WHOOP, I gotsa prezzie.

Now, Buying GAMES, I can barely remember getting them as a present.

I can be pretty spoiled with games. I've never bought my own but I almost always buy my own games.

I don't have a job yet. Here most places require an employee to be 16 and I won't be until March. When that time comes though, I'll be buying most of my stuff with my own money. Clothes, video games, systems, etc. I'm actually kind of excited about it.

So far I've had all my systems bought for me.

In March when I went to California, I bought my DS Lite for $139~ plus tax from some mexican market.

And when the original DS's came out here, I bought one myself for €150.
