I own a decent PC for stuff like Neverwinter Nights, Doom 3, Unreal Tournament 2003, and various RPGs. I don't play anything online because the attention I can devote to a game is limited. I'd be stuck in n00b phase for quite some time. I do use MWS (I only play specific people) and Magic Online though.
I still have my NES, SNES, and N64 but don't use them.
I own a Gamecube for Mario Kart and the Metroid games.
I own a PS2 for GTA games and whatever else happens to get my attention.
I own an X-Box (new!) for Halo, Halo2, and Fable. I don't go online because I prefer to get owned in private and I don't need a snotty 14 year old to do it for me.
I own a Gameboy Advance for retro Nintendo games, the 2 Metroid GBA titles, and portable Mario Kart. I mainly only use this when I travel.
I don't own a NGage because it's terrible.
I don't own a Nintendo DS yet because nothing good is out for it yet. I played with one at Target, but it felt unweildy in my hands and the Metroid Hunters game was really just focused on multi-player.

I own a PC for all sorts of games. I've at one time or another played Warcraft 3, Diablo 2, various WW2 shooters, and I'm sure there is a host of others.
I own Gamecube mostly for the multiplayer games like Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart, etc. I've played through both the Metriod Games, but they weren't that spectacular in my mind. Looking forward to the new Zelda game in '05.
I own PS2 for a lot of different reasons. The fact that it is a DVD player is one of them(one less thing to make room for) but I play a variety of different sports games, GTA, Metal Gear, and I'm sure there is others that aren't coming to mind at the moment.
I have GBA basically for FF:Tactics, but I also own the retro Zelda

I have a PS2 for the various Final Fantasy games and the GTA games as well. For some reason it no longer reads DVDs or half my games, is anybody familiar with this problem?
I have the 3 old school Nintendo systems (NES, SNES, Gameboy) for the various Final Fantasy products, Street Fighter II, Tetris, GI Joe (only the first one though), Bionic Commando and Super Metroid. I think the SNES is probably my favorite system of all time. So many quality games on that system.
I dont use my PC for games too much anymore, except for Magic Online and Sentimental Shooting. I used to play FFVII, FFVIII and Hitman 2 pretty heavily until I got a PS2 though.

Nintendo for all the old goodies (on that note, if you have some you wanna sell, let me know) SNES for Final Fantasy II/III, Link to the Past, DKC, Super Mario World (time required to beat all 96 levels- 2hrs 13 minutes), Madden NFL 91/94, and several other random games N64 for Goldeneye, Super Smash Brothers, Rogue Squadron, and a few others.
And that's it. My roomie has GameCube, but all I ever play on that is Smash Bros 2.

I have a N64 for Smash Brothers and my little brother has a GameCube for Smash Brothers, and I kick his ass in both. That's about all the gaming I have time for, although some friends of mine at school did try to get me into Far Cry (and I fell for it because it was reading period and I needed a distraction).

NES, SNES, N64, PS1, PS2, Sega Genesis.
I lived in a part of town with no kids of comparative ages. Video Games > obnoxious little kids.
My mom has an XBox. I have a tendency to go to her place both for free food and to amuse myself with the XBox.
I'll play almost anything, but non-mario kart racing games and sports games are boring as hell.

I think that I am the only person on this website who doesn't play any games. (Beat that!)
My brother plays X-Box Live primarily for Halo 2, and goes to a computer cafe (for lack of a better term) that maintains a bunch of spicy gaming PCs, though I don't know what games he gets really into there.
My roommate plays X-Box for his fascination of the week (Halo 2 lasted for three days because he's not on Live), N64 is still around for Super Smash Brothers, and GameCube was acquired by our upstairs neighbor for the explicit purpose of playing DoubleDash.

Playstation for DDRMAX, DDRMAX2, and DDR Extreme (anybody know if I can get the DDR Extreme Japanese version on PS2?) You can play Japanese games if you mod your Playstation with a Mod Chip. This will allow you to play import and domestic titles. It's worth it if you are Bemani Fan since you can get the JP DDR mixes as well as Beatmania.

I have an Xbox for Halo2, Madden, NCAA Football, and TigerWoods Golf I have a PS2 for the DVD functionality and for the GTA titles... I have an PS1 for Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo I have a PC for Poker, my new addiction to the games on MSN, MTGO, Neverwinter Nights, Sims 2, Civilization (all of them done by Sid)
I'd say I spend more time getting pwned at Halo2 online, playing poker, and playing tendrils combo in Prismatic on MTGO than anything right now.

I own an Xbox which is mod'd to play Xbox and PS2 Games (I have a ps2 controller that works for my xbox)
I play Halo2 2 constantly on Xbox Live, as well as fight night.
The PS2 games i rock on my Xbox are about 8 different street fighter variations.
If anyone wants their PS2 modified i have a friend who does it, he can modify it so your xbox can do anything, from playins PS2 games, to adding a tivo, lettin it played rips and imports, and any other possible mod that brings it towards being more like a computer, best part is he uses special chips that will still let you on Xbox live. PM me for details.

We have an Xbox and a PS2, but I don't play them. My roommates complain that there's a slight video delay on the TV (I have a DLP) and it screws them up. I told them to get better equipment, but they don't believe me. They don't play the things too much either actually...
The most amazing system is the Atari joystick thingy with built-in Breakout and a bunch of other great 4-bit games. It's almost as awesome as the Spongebob version. Everyone should get that. It makes Xbox obsolete.

Hm. total list...
NES: All the old school goodies, most importantly Super Mario Bros. 3, Duckhunt and River City Ransom. Oh and of course BattleToads and R.C. Pro- am.
Genesis: Gunstar Heroes <- Greatest side scrolling shooter ever. Shinobi 3, Sonic, Phantasy Star, Dynamite Headdy, Road Rash, etc.
SNES: Classic 'omfg best games ever' FF3/6, CT, Mario, DK, blah blah. Though also for a large chunk of great spaceship 2d scrollers. Gradius 3, Axelay, etc.
Game Gear: It had Columuns, Sonic, G-Lock and quite a few good games. Plus it was in COLOR! Yeah...
Game Boy Advance: Random fun games.
Playstation: Random good games, too many to list.
Saturn: Guardian Heroes, Panzer Dragoon (All of them), NIGHTS, etc. Mostly because a lot of the games at the time I liked a lot, hence purchase over PS at the time.
Dreamcast: Had some really awesome games in Soul Calibur, Virtua Tennis, Toy Commander, loads of good 2d fighters running really well, etc.
Gamecube: Mario Kart, Metroid, Super Monkey Ball, SSBM and a few other really fun games.

Obviously I've played it, it's one of the best games I have for the SNES. It just tends to be a bit less hectic than GH, so I choose it a little lower on the chain, plus 2 player for GH rules.  G3 is still an excellent game though. Have you played Gunstar Heroes? I've only met like 2 people that own the game.

PC - HL2 DM, and other stuff that is far far far less important My Girlfriends Game Cube, which sits in my room because she never plays it and I love it - Mario Cart Double DASH(BLUE SPARKS BLUE SPARKS!), SuperSmash Bro, and Mario Party for durnk game night Frat X-box's, there are a billon of them floating around the house, availible for use - I'm mostly a Halo 2 kinda guy myself, though sometimes I'll venture into a random RPS or raceing game. Finally I have a NES, which I literaly loved to death. It just died, and if anyone knows where to get a good condition old one let me know  - I used to play Adventure Island, Mario I, and III (screw mario II), Duckhunt, and 1942 along with various other Side Scrolling shooters.

PCs that can run almost any game. Mostly for RPGs Neverwinter Nights being the primary one. FPS like Half-Life 2, Doom 3, UT 2003, Battlefield series, etc. Also for MAME emulation.
X-Box: Modded currently just for a larger HD that has games stored on it. But contemplating a Linux install for couch internet browsing for myself or guests. Also for games like Soul Calibur 2, Fable, X-Men Legends, and many RPGs.
Sega Genesis: Was purchased solely for X-Men vs. Streetfighter. Now in disuse waiting to go on Ebay. (PC Mame emulation of XMVSF with X-Arcade controller is about as good as having the actual arade game in my living room.)

PC for HL2, Doom3, Civ3, Sims2, and most especially for multiplayer WW2 shooters. Currently I'm addicted to Call of Duty: United Offensive, though in the past Enemy Territory and good old-fashioned Return to Castle Wolfenstein were the primary addictions. I can't stand Counterstrike or Counterstrike: Source simply because I can't stand the player community for the most part (I'll echo what Z said about fourteen year olds). Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch also bore me, since I like objective-based gameplay that forces you to work as a team, so I'm reserving judgment on HL2 multiplayer for now. It is pretty ridiculously fun so far despite the less-than-ideal gameplay.
PS2 for GTA (<3 San Andreas), the occasional Final Fantasy game, Devil May Cry, and that's about it.
As for Nintendo and SNES, that's why God made emulators.
