DylanC Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I love buying new gaming hardware. Sometimes, however, I’m too broke to buy a new console so have to wait a bit before pulling the trigger. Luckily, I’ve bought a few consoles at launch as I’ve pretty much worked since I was 18 in some shape or form. It’s a real buzz getting a brand new console on the day it launches, right? Here are the consoles I’ve bought on launch day: PS3 PS Vita PS4 Nintendo Switch As you can tell, most of these consoles are pretty modern as I didn’t have the cash when I was younger. What consoles have you bought at launch? Or do you prefer waiting a bit first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Personally I prefer waiting. On launch day they're always more expensive, but if you wait several months, maybe even a year or more, then the price will be reduced quite a bit. Also after that time there will be more games available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, if you’re lucky and have some disposable income and want to get in on the ground floor, there’s a nice buzz to be had getting a new piece of hardware when it launches imho. But your reasoning is sound and I’ve also definitely waited a while before buying many of my consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 The only one I even got on launch was the PS3 and I didn't regret that decision because I had bragging rights among my friends back then being that we were all Sony fanboys. It served me a good 5 years before I seriously got into PC gaming and I've never really looked back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
