First Video Game?

[Liberasit]

What was your first video game?

My mom, aunt and cousins had went on a skiing trip when I was 4. It was an adult outing and my mom felt bad I couldn't go (she took me a few weeks later, just the two of us). She came back with this thing called a "Gameboy" and Dr. Mario. I played it and was immediatly fustrated. I played it a bit more and started to like it. My parents got me more games and I was hooked.

My first game was called "Little Brick Out" in 1977.

i got bought a Sega Mega Drive in 1995, which came with 3 games in one cartridge = Italia 90 (a football game), Super Hang On (a motorbike game) and Columns (a puzzle game).

Pong for the Atari on console, if we are talking arcade games...the original space invaders.

the first video game I played was a Mario game on the gameboy. In retrospect it was a terrible game. You couldn't even save.

That sounds like Super Mario Land, for the original black and white Gameboy. It really didn't compare well at all to games in the series, like Super Mario Bros 3, World, Yoshi's Island, and Super Mario 64.

That sounds about right.

The first video game I every REALLY got engaged in was Ocarina of Time, and years later, FF9.
Recently I got about half-way through FF1.
In between I was obsessed with Heroes of Might & Magic 3 for years. which I still think is one of the best games ever made.

It was a Simpson's arcade game at a Food City store, haha.

Then it was Sonic 2 on Sega Genesis.

One of the first games I remember playing was Gauntlet for the PS2.

 

[The-Doctor]

I loved that game...I have it on my old ps2 console now

 

[Cynical]

It was one of: Pokemon Blue/Red for the Gameboy Advance, Super Mario 64, Pokemon Stadium, or Pokemon Snap. Honestly can't remember which one.

 

[pdudgeon]

frogger! LOL

 

[Ace Horse]

Hmm... I'm going to go out on a limb and say it was Rayman for the PS1. If not, then it was the Super Mario Bros. port for the Gameboy.

Spider-Man on the Atari 2600.

Back in 1995 when I was only 9 years old I had a friend called Justin (he was 6 years old at that time), and he had a Nintendo 64 and he played video games quite a lot. We were sometimes invited over to his house and I would watch him play. From time to time he would ask me if I wanted to play too.

We eventually got our own Nintendo 64 and the first game we ever bought was Mario Kart 64, a racing game. I played that thing with a passionate obsession. I grew to like video games so much it became an addiction (don't let this happen to you, kids! Remember that there is much more to life than just video games all the time).

When the Pokemon craze hit in the late 1990s I became a part of it. Soon Pokemon became my favorite video game series, I played it like it was almost a religion or something and I was utmost a devout follower.

Soon we were buying other games to play, as they were released. We own over 20 video games but I can't exactly recall them off the top of my head, except a favorite of mine, Kirby and the Crystal Shards for the Nintendo 64.

Nowadays the Nintendo 64 is an outdated system. They no longer sell video games for it. The Wii and the Wii U are the current systems that they sell games for.

It was! I remember getting Pokemon red when it came out!

I got Pokemon Red when it came out too. But that was a long time ago, I played it with a passion when I was a kid: the most fun part about it for me was the battling and the collecting of monsters. Every time I caught a new Pokemon I became excited. I think I lost that game a long time ago, because I don't remember owning it for years now. I continue the Pokemon tradition I came to when I was a kid, for I recently bought, and own, Pokemon Y and X for the Nintendo 3ds, and yes, I beat them both. My starter Pokemon was Fennekin and I finished with its twice evolved and final form of Delphox.

Why Fennekin? Because since I was a kid the fire type was always my strong suite. I am a fire type expert, like Blaine was.
