Scratch that. I bought a Commodore 64 w/ disk drive just to play Raid On Bungling Bay. The emulator version sucked ass.

PlayStation for FF7. I think I paid around $120-140 in 1997 for the PS, FF7, strategy guide, and I think Dynasty Warriors.
It proved worthwhile for that and Castlevania SoTN alone, although I did have good times in the military dorms with Tekken 2.

PS2 for Gran Turismo 4 and it was worth every penny!

I am now addicted to Madden '06 though.
