The first game I played was Space Invaders in my dad's local pub, he took me specifically to see and experience it.
The first to play at home was a variant of the grandstand 5000.
Then I played an atari 2600 at a cousin's house, and I fell in love with centipede.
PC, Bow n Arrow... Maybe math blaster. But if we just want a dedicated game system, PlayStation, Crash Bandicoot.
Not sure which game was first, but I have early memories of Tomb Raider, COD2 and Larry on a Win95 PC. My first used console was an PS2 while the first I owned was an original Xbox. My first used handheld an original GameBoy, with the Advance SP being the first I owned myself.
The oldest ones I used are different tho. I'm not that old but I went back to try a few older devices over the years.
Sim Farm on MS-DOS. I'm pretty sure it came on a 5 1/4 floppy disk.
I vaguely remember an Atari and Pong, but that's so hazy that I can't be too sure.
Toy Story The game on sega mega drive. My parents bought me a mega drive for my birthday, it was such an experience for me.
My Gameboy Advanced. Couldnβt tell you my first games, but some favs were Mario Tennis, crash Bandicoot, and some kind of Mario Party game. I also remember a full Frogger game that I really enjoyed. PlayStation 1 was my second console, more Crash Bandicoot and Mario games, Ratchet and Clank, and Madden.
Late 90s and early 2000s were the best times to be a kid (but, of course, Iβm biased)
The first game I ever played? Must has been Mario Bros 3 game for NES, or probably Sonic The Hedgehog, the first game that was mine was actually a combo of Grand Turismo and DBZ Ultimate Battle 22 for the PS1 at 6 years old, GT definitely was hard as balls, and not a fan of racing titles at that age, so I mastered DBZ lol.
Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt on the NES. I was much better at Duck Hunt than SMB as a kid.
I'm not sure its the first, but one of my earliest memories is of Alladin on the SNES
Ti-99. I'm old, but I can still Hunt the Wumpus.
Before I started school my mother sometimes would have to bring me in to work with her when she couldn't find a baby sitter. She worked in a restaurant in a bowling alley, during the day it wasn't very busy so she would be running the place on her own. There were a few regulars who would give me quarters to play the Galaga machine, and sometimes they'd give me a couple bucks and I'd go across the building to the arcade for some Spy Hunter and Donkey Kong.
TurboGraphx-16. Keith courage. I mostly remember arguing with my brother about whose turn it is lol One controller. How did we ever survive?!
Karateka on Apple IIe
Captain Comic. I've hated birds ever since.
N64
Atari
Atari and Pac Man
Probably had to be Goldeneye on the N64. Split screen with my cousins.
But the first game I really played by myself was Link's Awakening DX on the GameBoy Color.
Honorable mention for PokΓ©mon Gold.
Edit: Just remembered Humongous Entertainment. Freddie Fish, Pajama Sam, Spy Fox on the PC.
Backyard Baseball. The original Super Smash Brothers on N64. Super Mario Bros Deluxe on Gameboy color. Perfect Dark on N64. OK I'm done for now π
The first I owned was Alex kid on Sega master system
