How much do you spend on videogames/gaming/consoles/electronics a year? (about)

Nagare: I spend at least $200 a year. But if I want to buy a system I cut back some.

Last year I spent about $750, including the $400 for the PS3. I bought a four games for the Wii, each $50, two PS3 games, and rented a few games to reach around that total. :)

I usually keep it at or under $250 a year though.

I'd like to say that 'I' spend money on electronics but the thing is I don't.

Any electronics I obtain are gifts and when I tally it up, I almost feel guilty when I consider the amount money spent on me.

This year was probably the worst considering the cost of a Macbook Pro. I usually only ask for 1 or 2 big things a year and I have to work my ass of in school for them.

I get a summer job whenever I'm in Canada for the summer and get a couple games that way.

Hehe, I forgot to mention that I'm already over $500 this year after buying a laptop back in February. I guess I've got to limit myself for the next nine months. :(

I spend about $200 worth. All of my other electronics I beg for.

Probably on games alone, anywhere from $50 - $300 or more. It really does depend. Some years, I just have to buy all these games. Other times, I just don't need to spend my money when I can be satisfied with a few games for awhile.
