For me it was the DS. I had bought Mario 64 DS before the system launched (they were still selling the games for some reason). I had to wait months until I could get one of the early grey silver NDS systems just to play a remake of the N64 classic.

The launch lineup was utter trash and the early titles where not much better as developers struggled to tap into the DS' power and touch controls. I ended up playing alot of really bad games second hand before Mario Kart, Poke'mon and Metroid Prime finally made it to the system. Eventually it became one of my favorite handheld consoles due to it's library but godddamn was it rough to get there.

Stories?

When I finally managed to actually get one, I picked up Twilight Princess, Wii Play, and I forget what else was around at the time. 90% of the time I just play wii sports anyway.
