It was either a Sega Megadrive or an Nintendo 64.

Ah, yes. The Sega Mega Drive. I think that may have actually been my first console. I played Sonic 2 and 3, and Earthworm Jim all the time. I think I still have it, actually. Although I also have vague memories of selling it. I haven't seen it in a long while. I hope it's still kicking around somewhere — I'd love to get it set up again. I sold my Game Boy Colour, but I still have my N64.

Edit: So, after posting this, I went to look for it and I actually found it! I have the manual and everything. Completely forgot about Worms, as well. What a time to be alive. Damn, I'm looking at the Sega Mega Drive online, and I can't believe how cheap it still is.

Wasn't that one of those with sinclair-MSX-basic ish programming tongue that we could compose songs using a command of the kind:

10 COLOR 1.2
20 PLAY C;D;E;F;G;A;B THEN GOTO 30
30 PRINT "HELLO HUMAN! I'm LUCPIX"; GOTO 40
40 INPUT "First of all: What is your name"; U$
50 PRINT "Then well, nice to yo meet you,": PRINT U$;
60 PRINT "1- DO; 2- RE; 3- MI; 4-FA; 5-SOL; 6-LA; 7-SI"
70 INPUT "CHOOSE A MUSICAL NOTE, PLEASE!"; A
80 IF (A=1) THEN PLAY C; GOTO 150
90 IF (A=2) THEN PLAY D; GOTO 150
100 IF (A=3) THEN PLAY E; GOTO 150
110 IF (A=4) THEN PLAY F; GOTO 150
120 IF (A=5) THEN PLAY G; GOTO 150
130 IF (A=6) THEN PLAY A; GOTO 150
140 IF (A=7) THEN PLAY B; GOTO 150
150 PRINT "THANKS FOR PLAYING, MOZART!"
160 PRINT "Have a nice day" THEN PRINT U$

RUN

OoOo if "ability of putting a DVD/cartridge" isn't an obligatory requirement of what we usually call "Console" then I could say that my first time has happened with this?:
