The Xbox 360 just had it's 20th anniversary. I'm not sure how I feel about it as a console today as most of the games are available on pc with only a few exclusives. I guess most of the nostalgia will be from playing online, which I never got the chance to do.

360 is definitely my favorite retro console, hands down, due to nostalgia. Feels kinda weird calling it retro, but that's neither here nor there for me. I never had xboxlive, so playing online was never a thing for me.

Out of any console out there, it's absolutely the one I've played the most, by a pretty bug margin if I had to guess. Somehow I've played it more than my 2nd favorite retro console: PS2.

I might make some people feel old, but I was in elementary school when my family somehow got a white model with the hard drive attached to the top whatever year that was, that December. I also don't remember how we got our black 360 with the seemingly safer internal removable hard drive, but I absolutely LOVE it all these years later.

I think I would absolutely cry if I lost the hard drive for it because of just how much memories are on it. It would be worse than the feeling I got when I realized I lost the memory card for the family PS2 because I didn't pack it in my backpack before being forced to move.
