Anyone bought a console for one game?

Bought a Ps2 for GT4, ranted at my better half for what seems like ages for an Xbox360 (previously just played on PC), upped the ante when Forza 3 came out.

Xmas brought a "Great Success" in this respect :)
 
Not really but there are games on each system I really want to play and are big reasons for getting the console. But would never buy for just one game if I though I would get nothing else from the system.

Though the main reason for getting the 360 was GTAIV. Was going to get it on PC but lots of bad reports around at the time and realised I needed to upgrade my PC for it. So went and bought a 360.

At the time PS3 was too expensive but was always on my mind when reading reviews of MGS4. Have a PS3 now so will be picking that game up.

Likes of Mario Kart and Zelda for the wii.
 
Bought my 360 just because GTA IV was released, and i've just bought another whilst its at MS for repairs so i can carry on playing COD:MW2
 
I am in the PS3 for FFXIII group, otherwise I'd still be playing on my PS2 and would have probably missed this generation out :p

I play plenty of other games on it while I'm waiting though :)
 
After importing/selling a PS3, I did buy a UK one just for GT:HD and GT5:P, but sold it when GT5 was in the vapourware stage...

Oddly, am seriously considering yet another PS3 when GT5 lands, but am hanging on this time until I see the game on the shelves..
 
I bought an XBOX360 for Ace combat 6 way back when it was released.

I also bought a gamecube to play the remake of resident evil.

i bought a ps1 for FF7.

a nintendo 64 for ocarina of time. damn i was happy on xmas morning!
 
Not for a single game - more for the exclusive brands of the time - ie playstation for resident evil 2 and final fantasy 7, N64 for golden eye zelda and Nintendo games... Each Sega consoles for what they offered... now i can afford it if i really wanted a game I could buy a console for it but I dont see it happening. Im happy with what the 360 gives me and am not tempted by the ps3 yet.
 
i bought an n64 just for golden eye, and got my ps3 just for metal gear, i regretted the n64 to hell and back after playing the 3 good games for it and being a little nipper not having enough money to buy the expensive carts!
 
nah i always buy consoles because i love them

once bought a pc just for counter strike source though

oh actually i did buy a GC just for the MGS remake. but the controller was so rubbish that i never enjoyed it as much as i should
 
I don't think I've ever really thought "this game is the only reason I'm buying this console", but games have made me want to buy consoles, like Zelda on the N64 or Halo 3 on the 360.

That said though sometimes I buy consoles for no reason whatsoever, I remember being out and about in town just browsing and came home with an xbox and a gamecube, even though I already had 1 xbox and had previously owned 2 gamecubes.
 
Yeah.

SNES for Super Mario All Stars
Mega Drive for Sonic 2
Playstation for Tekken
Game Boy Color for Pokemon
Playstation 2 for Metal Gear Solid 2
Xbox for Halo
Xbox 360 for Gears of War

I bought the PS3 and Wii on their launch days, with no particular game in mind.

If I had no PS3 and wanted to buy another one with only one game for it, Demon's Souls would make me fork out the cash. As for the Wii.... it can go jump off a freaking cliff!
