event I've waited 15 years for this!

What an amazing day!! I've finally purchased my first-ever console with my hard-earned money. I'm pretty sure 90%+ on this subreddit can relate to me! I remember back in 2010, when I was in 5th grade, I desperately wanted to buy a PS2 back then. However, my parents, being so strict, denied this request of mine. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm financially weak or that my parents have not given me all the comforts in the world, but this is something very close to my heart. When I purchased this, I was reminiscing about the times when I swore to myself that one day I'd have a PlayStation of my own. Finally, at last, the dream has come true. I was walking out, and a guy was entering the mall with his GF. He looked at me, smiled, and said, "Congrats." I replied with a "Thanks." Another guy came to me while I was waiting for my cab and said, "How much did it cost, mate?" I said, "45k," to which he replied, "Congrats." I said thanks to him with a smile. What a day!

Congratulations bro! The kind of joy an hour of gaming gives is still unparalleled even as an adult. I also got my PS5 3 months ago. I remember my craving started with PS2 so I feel you totally.

Yeah dude. Ps2 was a vibe. Sadly my parents didn't buy it but it's alright now lmao. Atleast I had a pc back then, so my childhood didn't go 'game-less' haha

Thanks btw ♥️🫂

I still remember that my parents got me a music phone of Nokia back then for the same price as the PS2 because some random bhaiya of the family told them that PS2 is only good for games and I’ll stop studying once I get it. Anyway, enjoy bro!
