I waited for the PlayStation about 2 years. I was going to be a Nintendo fan boy and not going to bother with PlayStation. I'm not sure what got me to change my mind but I was glad I did. It was somewhat of a split second decision. One day I decided I was going to buy one and went out and bought it on my next day off.

I bought the PS2 on release day. I had connections and was able to buy it out from somebody who legitimately won a draw to buy (that person ticked off the store manager when entering the draw so he let me buy it instead of telling that person their name was drawn).

I bought a PS3 in 2012, a full 6 years after release date and only one year before PS4!

I bought the PS4 in 2016. This time only 3 years after release!

I doubt I'll get PS5 upon its release but my boys are excited for it and if they want to pitch in we may wind up getting it much quicker than the previous two consoles. Maybe we'll wait until Christmas 2021. Maybe the following summer. These consoles are so expensive these days.
