Hi! I'm Jarfeh, I made this account a little bit ago but never really used it.. So here goes!

The first video game I ever played was Super Mario Brothers for the NES.
I wasn't alive during the 80's, so I think it's pretty neat that the first video game I played growing up was on a game console 20+ years older than me! :D

Hi and welcome. My first game was Super Mario Brothers, followed quickly by Zelda, Dragon Quest, Excite Bike and Golf. I grew up in the 80s. I'm pretty sure I still have the nintendo boxed up some where in storage.

Nemesis for NES (Gradius). Kinda traumatizing for first game... :D

Oh boy, the wonderful scrolling shooters, gotta love em, gotta hate them. I believe I had a shooter called Xevious on one of those multi game joystick thingies, and god I got pissed at it, great memories..

Alex the Kidd in Miracle World on the Master System.

Gotta represent for the Sega Crowd :D

Lot's of 80's Kids in here...

Pong.

My first video-based gaming software was something called, Devil May Cry 5.

So far, this video-based gaming software fad seems like a hit! Hopefully it doesn't go the way of the telephone and vanish into obscurity.

Super Mario World.

The second game I ever played is easy: Super Mario Bros.

The first game I played is tricky, if pounding my paws on a few buttons cluelessly counts. It was Popeye. I'm sure of that. I'm a little confused about the medium. I don't think it could have been the 2600, because the graphics on that port are so poor that I don't think I would have ever recognized it as Popeye in the first place. I don't associate it with the NES, though I remember it looking more like the NES version. Information on the NES release history is vague in general. I'm seeing the US release dated prior to the nation-wide launch of the NES, but it's never listed as a launch title, and what are the odds that I would have encountered it before Super Mario Bros on an NES anyway? I actually remember it as the whole arcade cabinet. My babysitter took me to someone's house, and they had converted a closet into a room where a bunch of teenagers were gathered around watching this game, and I remember it being huge. Was it though, or is that just because it was novel and I inflated it in my head? I dunno. I can't even find conclusive confirmation on a quick skim that Popeye was released in the US as an arcade cabinet. �\_(ツ)_/�

Mine was Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, developed by BioWare. BioWare's basically dead now...

It certainly was. I played it many times.

I mean, I believe you, but that article doesn't say anything about it.

I suppose in hindsight the fact that original English language reviews of it exist suggests that it shipped outside of Japan heh

Mario Kart 64

that article doesn't say anything about it

Hover over the first image: "U.S. Popeye arcade flyer." Underneath the image it says "North American arcade flyer."

PacMan Atari 2600.

Crash Bandicoot

I don't remember so well but my first one I think it was The Sims. I didn't have a computer back then. After that, when I got my first computer, it surely was GTA San Andreas.

One night on the TV news I saw a story about the craze surrounding a recently-released video game which was soon to become my first play: Space Invaders.

Space Invaders was a real thrill. However, I think it was either Donkey Kong or Pack-Man.

Hello. My first game I played was Streets Of Rage on the Sega Megadrive. :)

Dino Crisis my all time favourite. :)

Something from Atari, maybe Pitfall

The first one I played was Space Invaders arcade.
The first console game I owned was Super Mario Bros. for the NES.

Super Mario World and Ms. Pac Man. (For some reason my late father really liked the latter game)

I think the first game I played was Hogan's Alley at my local department store.

hi there!
new member here, my first game ummhh, super mario or bomberman for nes.
old nostalgia, good times, no smathphone.

hmm i forgot my first one. Console wise, it should be SNES, but i dont remember anything that time.

As for the first one i remember, it's on PS1, which is Spyro The Dragon. That time i was like, 5 or 6-ish XD

As far as I remember, Diddy Kong Racing on the N64. I dreaded the silver coin challenges >_>

Tony hawk pro skater for ps1, first soundtrack I was hooked on

One of the Commander Keen games, I think. If not that, then the original Super Mario Bros or Castlevania.

I think it was Battle Realms, I was completely addicted to it that I'd fight my way to the PC against my sister just to play it.

I still love it, even though it hasn't really aged well.

My first was Zelda OoT. My cousin have N64 and I played it a lot at his house... one of my best..

tetris lol, after that i got the chance to try pac-man in the arcade and i suck at both of them
