One of the Wizardry games. I'm not sure which. It may have also been Shadowgate... which used to scare me to no end.

Can't remember but we had Sega as the first console.. Probably Pacman or Sonic.. I want to consider SOnic as my first though, I had a pillow cover of him when I was a kid. hahaha^^

Alex The Kidd.. Fucken mindblowing!

mine was super mario 64 a good 7yrs ago (im only 13)

I am very glad you have clarified this, to be honest I had no idea until now

That's Operation Neptune.

As for me my first experience with video games is when I was 4 or 5 at a science camp.  They had a computer lab with some PCs and I played Gorillas, a qbasic game where you have to defeat your opponent by launching explosive bananas at them using angles and velocity while compensating for gravity, height, and wind.

Haha, awesome, Gorillas was my first game too. My uncle was a computer teacher and I got to play it on his computer whenever we visited.

Final Fantasy. I was 4 and didn't know what the hell I was doing.

Literally the exact same thing. Absolutely useless playing it.

to be honest this almost answers a few questions


almost

Either duck hunt or mario, the one cartridge with both on it.

super mario world. age 3. good times. then soon after, Dragon Warrior, Scorched Earth, and other such fun

i feel kinda terrible you played smw at age 3 and i played smb3 at age 3 and you're actually older than me




i come from a tough upbringing hombre

For me it was galaga, on the atarti 2600. I didn't really get passionate about playing games till NES came out, but I experienced enough atari games to permanently identify it with classic video gaming.

I dunno, Pong? Maybe something on the vextrex?
Can you people seriously remember the first time you played a videogame??

I don't actually remember my first time playing video games.  I do however remember my brother only allowing me to play a very small number of his games, so I can reason out which ones I would have played first.  Even still it's only a guess though.  I think most of us just know the situations in which we would have been playing games and can therefore  figure out which games we would have played first.

Some people were older when they first played a game though so they probably do remember.
