Have any of you ever bought a game system solely for the purpose of playing one game?

I actually signed up for the Xbox Live beta test thinking I wouldnt get in with a friend and both of us did. Both of us didnt have an xbox. So after the material arrived, I bought the xbox from eb.

Waste of money :|

I got no money now

 

[dali71]

I bought a Dreamcast just for Soul Calibur, money well spent

 

[stormbv]

I bought a Dreamcast when they were cheap to play Shenmue.

 

[Looney]

I've thought about buying a GC for RE4.

 

[Hexx]

Yes, bought a second PS2 after my first one gave out after a few years just to play Gran Turismo 4.

 

[Juno]

n64 for goldeneye.

 

[LS20]

playstationfor gran turismo

totally worth it, btw

 

[KillerCharlie]

Nintendo64 for Zelda (Ocarina of Time). I sold it after getting every single object in the game twice. It was worth every penny to buy it. I had already played plenty of Mario Kart and Goldeneye at my friends' house by then, otherwise I probably would've done the same thing for them instead.

 

[cubby1223]

Gamecube to play Super Monkey Ball 2 - course I've bought other games since.

 

[imported_DocHolliday]

2 times... ps2 for GT3 and ps2 for san andreas.... sigh...

 

[EatSpam]

I downloaded a SNES emulator to play F-Zero. Does that count?

 

[BobDaMenkey]

I bought a Dream Cast just to play Shenmue.

Depends how old the game/console is. Some of the example combinations in this thread could probably be had for under $50

 

[bolomite]

ps1 for FF7

 

[Chaotic42]

PS2 for Final Fantasy X.

Not a good deal.

Guess you're right, I was thinking of current generation consoles. A SNES system with games can be aquired pretty cheaply.
