Space Hulk when I was 2 years old

Oh, the memories. I still really like the game even though I have grown to hate the W40k universe over the last few years thx to GW.

 

[BLunted]

Pong

 

[diddykong13]

Super Mario World. That game has a very special place in my heart

 

[therealPeterman]

Combat on the Atari 2600.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I really can't remeber, but it should be the gameboy with tetris or the super nintendo with lufia 2.

 

[runnin_blue]

Freeway for Atari 2600

 

[MajorTom]

Metal Gear Solid.
I was about 3 years old, my dad had just bought a ps1 and mgs. I saw him playing and asked if I could have a go. I didn't really do anything I think I just ran around for a couple minutes. I fell in love instantly and watched him play the rest of the game. That is the game that made me fall in love with games, it is the reason I am hoping to one day get into the game development industry.

 

[Shmuppers]

Pokemon Ruby on my good ol' Gameboy SP.

 

[philion]

"Tennis" on a Magnavox Odyssey 3000, which is basically "Pong".

 

[Ladekabel]

Well, don't leave us hanging! How did you play it? =p

I always thought I have to build to the top as fast as possible.

 

[Retrozocker]

Frogger on Atari 2600.

[kencey]

Mortal Kombat 2

 

[Azzawon]

Awww yiss

 

[zorlaczerohero]

Pong when I was 5 or 6, probably 1976 or thereabouts. A kid on my street was loaded, his Dad owned a nightclub so he had a console at home, his Dad also took us to the club during the day and let us play the arcade machines.

 

[IAmRandom31]

Pitfall I think on one of my family members Atari. I think ...

Hard to remember way back when. Ice Climbers, Super Mario, Pitfall, Combat, some stuff on the Commodore 64 ... all happened within a relatively short timeframe of one another.

 

[bwakh]

Dangerous Dave on MS-DOS

 

[GenoStarz]

F-Zero on the SNES.

 

[themidnightsun156]

the first game i can remember playing is sonic the hedgehog 2, i might have played some other stuff before but i cant remember

 

[Erasus]

1st time playing one I don't actually remember.

1st one I bought with "my" money was pokemon blue for GB Pocket :3

 

[Von Krukru]

Finding the sword on the beach. I'll never forget that moment!

 

[HappenstanceUK]

It was either Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt on the NES or Adventure on the Atari 2600. We had a 2600 before the NES but I can never remember if I played on it as a kid before I got the NES.

 

[Kukawaki]

First ever? Pong arcade machine.
First bought with own money: Assault Rigs. #BasedPsygnosis

 

[Iriscomeback]

Astroids on the Atari I believe... (not the 2600, but a home computer)

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

super mario land on the original Game Boy.

This and Tetris.

 

[Kinhow]

Kirby's Adventure, on the NES.
such a great game!

 

[Kentpaul]

Alex kidd.

 

[co1onel]

Wario Land on the original gameboy. At least as far as I can remember.

 

[Lapidus' Beard]

Asteroids for the Atari 2600.
Still works!

 

[Nemmy]

Most likely the original Prince of Persia on the PC. I was 2 or something and I was watching my dad play rather than playing it myself, but it sparked my interest in videogames anyway.

 

[DarKshodaN]

Pitfall for the Atari

 

[baudelinog]

First was Tetris on arcade, but the magic came later at home: R-Type on Master System. What a nice beggining!

 

[jesu]

A Grandstand pong like machine.
I'd be about 4 or 5 back then.

 

[Ladekabel]

=O

For FOUR years!?

I was like 2 years old when I started Tetris and nobody in kindergarten played it.

 

[linkandzelda]

Pokemon Sapphire

 

[Jelle]

Super Mario Land on GameBoy (classic). I was 10 years ol and came from cheap 'brick game' handhelds so I was blown away by the graphics.

 

[Holygriever]

I was like 2 years old when I started Tetris and nobody in kindergarten played it.

Ah, that makes more sense...

Edit: Oy, I'm a MEMBER now! O_O

 

[Lombax]

Combat on the Atari:

 

[Tortahegeszto]

It was one of the 90's FIFA on my uncle's Playstation. I was like 3 years old at max so it was rather just button mashing, then playing.

 

[TheMightyJerkules]

Pac Man arcade version.

 

[KarasuEXE]

Sonic the Hedgehog on Master System, when I was 3 years old.

 

[KKRT00]

This, Tetris or some arcade Atari-like game machine with few games included. Its hard to say today.

 

[vanty]

Mine was either Jill of the Jungle or Gorillas unless I played my mother's Parachute G&W before that. I think my neighbour's SNES was the first time I ever saw a console, was all just DOS action before that.

 

[pikablu]

Super Mario All Stars + World that came packed in with my Snes. I think that this collection of games really shaped me as a classic gamer. My love for the original mario games made me interested in more retro games like the original nintendo and even atari. Although I'm sure they we'rent considered too retro then. I think I probably got my snes in Christmas of 95 and I had it along with a genesis I found at a yard sale up until right when the ps2 was launched.

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

It's a hazy past, but it was either Super Mario World or Sonic 1/2.

 

[marcincz]

River Raid.
It was a great game.

 

[prag16]

Pretty sure it was Donkey Kong on Commodore 64. Was probably around 5 years old.

 

[arcoN]

Super Mario World and sonic on NES. Portable - Nintendo Gameboy with Tetris
