I have a little void that has never been filled because my first NES did not include R.O.B. / Gyromite. I think it was 1985ish. My brother and I were 9/10, something like that. We saved our pennies to get "the next best system". So, we have mom take us to KB Toy Store in the mall to get our Atari 7800, right? But, what is this? A new system from some unknown video game company. A Nintendo? What's that? While the clear glass display case showcasing the NES console, R.O.B., and other launch games and accessories was quite impressive, it was a no-brainer. The Atari 7800 was made by the Gods themselves - Atari - and was backward compatible with all our 2600 games. And, besides, I wanted a traditional joystick, not a lame flat control pad. And certainly this "Nintendo" fad will fade away and Atari will reign forever. Right?
Well, let's just say, that wasn't the last time I would make a technology mistake (anyone want to buy a dusty 25 year old mini-disc player?).
So, by the time I finally got my NES, R.O.B. was not included. But, I do have the gray gun, not the lame orange gun so there is some solace there.

MF, no love for Sega? I still have my 8-bit Master System, my Genesis (With Sega CD and 32X as knightfox mentioned), Saturn (with Netlink!), and Dreamcast - all hooked up and running.I really liked my MD player. It was like the evolution of a cassette, except much smaller.
Here's my list: Intellivision, NES, SNES, Gameboy, Gamecube, PS2, GBA SP, DS, Wii, PS3, 3DS, Switch. At some point, I picked up a used N64 off of Craigslist with a bunch of games.
I really only had two chances to pick a Sega system, when I got the NES and then SNES. I took a hiatus from buying consoles until the Gamecube. And I guess Sega's blast processing was too fast for meMF, no love for Sega?

Nice. Yes, great game. I don't think I have ever replayed a game. Wait, I take that back, I think Mario 64. When I met my wife, I was playing Mario Sunshine. My wife got hooked and loved to watch. We then went on to play Galaxy 1 and 2. Then I thought, you know, I need to show her the first Mario 3D game that started it all. So I played M64 a second time to show her.I replayed The Last of Us about two weeks ago from start to finish. I've done that for probably less than half a dozen games in my entire life. Goes to show how good a game it is! Sequel looks like it ought to be pretty awesome.
