Okay yeah, "I think" and not "I thing". Please forgive my not so perfect english.

It's Saturday night. I have no date. I have a bottle of Sashta and my all-Rush mix-tape. Let's rock.

>>54845123

>saturday

I'm 21, I'd believe that the game would be Tetris on the original Game Boy.

>>54845271
and i was 5

I am 24 years old. The first game I remember was the shitty "Chessmaster" NES port that my parents bought to stimulate my infant brain. It's debatable which I played first though. The memory is a mishmash of Jaws, 'Batman, or SMB, all for NES.

Halo

Im 12

I was 10 back then.

19.

First game I ever played was Sonic the Hedgehog I think, so yea, I've been playing games since I was 1 year old.

30

Tarzan of the jungle (ps1) I think I was 8

20 years old. At age 5, in 1995, I played Mortal Kombat on my cousin's Sega Genesis. Or was it Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 in the arcade that I played first? Ah, the dates and sequences are so fuzzy... But I became a sworn gamer the moment I saw my first Fatality.

I think the first game i have really solid memory of playing was Space Harrier in one of those big hydraulic cabinets, with the music & speech effects cranked to the max it was pretty intense to say the least..

From that moment on i was hooked on vidya.

>>54844913

In the meantime, let me tell you that I was a poor kid and video games where always fucking expensive. As a child all the way to my early teens, I would always hang out in any arcades, watching people play or even just watching the games demos playing themselves. I would also do this in any 7/11 or restaurant that had any machine.
Of course, any quarters I found was immediately lost in these arcade machine.

Ah, good old days...

>>54844913
20
Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt

If it makes you feel better/younger I also had an atari 2600 handed down to me from my father and I loved it.

I'm 17, and the first game i remember playing is Sonic 2. The first game i remember playing in-depth to the point of actually completing was Crash Bandicoot 2 when i was 4 though.

Mario/Duckhunt combo cart for NES

21, at age 4 I played that basketball game for the Atari

OP here.

Heeeeyyyy, I have that game, sitting on a shelf, somewhere.

this is a way to trick underageb&

22 years here. First game i played was the Mario/Duckhunt combo at my neighbors. First game I owned was Mutant League Football for the Genesis.

>>54845836

Quite a blast that would have been.

Also, age now, age then?

I loved the C64, even though I was terrible at that game as a kid.

>>54846291
get ready for the ban

I'm 19 and the first game I played was probably Donkey Kong Country when I was 6 or 7 years old. I got it along with my first SNES :3

>>54846126

So far, only one underage have shown.

But someone could be a 55 year old fart with Wii sport as his first game.

TF2

I'm 25 and the first game I remember seeing was one of EA's golf games for the Tandy TL/2. My father used to take me out to his place of work Saturdays, buying some donuts on the way, and show me the golf game at a computer there. I was around four or five. After my dad bought a Tandy TL/2 to foster my interest in computers (and for some productivity software he almost certainly never used) I played around with the course editor all the time.

The first really decent game that I played all the way through again and again was Operation Neptune in around first or second grade. Holy fuck I loved it. The game's a solid platformer with plenty of replay value and the math puzzles seem like a natural addition to the game, featuring obvious stuff you'd need to do on a regular basis when in a sub. I still replay it every now and then, it's fucking awesome.

>>54844913
5 or 6, it was either Pitfall or Pole Position for the Atari 2600. I say either because I received them and the system at once, so it would've been a ten minute difference if that between them.

>>54844913

>Pong player here
>You're all noobs

21, pic related, and I don't remember.

15, first game was probably Megaman 3, I was six.

Remember Mike Tyson's Punch Out! too.

>>54846494

>implying mods do anything

>>54846606
>Tandy TL/2.

Fuck man, I don't even...

That fucking HARDCORE.

18 years old
first game I can remember playing was prince of persia dos
I think I was like 4 or 5?

20, Prince of Persia in a monochrome computer.
Later I got a Master System.

I'm 24 years old and the first game I remember playing is the original Mario Brothers, the one for NES.

>>54846237

I'm 28 now..
Think i would have been about 6 then & that game would have probably just been in arcades that year (1986) Sega cabinets were everywhere in the late 80's, i have fond memories of playing Ghosts n Goblins that year too..

>>54847065

Also I was about 3 or 4... I think.

15, Alex the Kid, Ghouls 'n' Ghosts or Golvellius: Valley of Doom for Master System. I didn't play as often as I'd watch somebody else play.

My mom beat Ghouls 'n' Ghosts.

Twice

>>54846776

God I love them epic descriptions for them random dots and squares!

22
Shadowgate when I was 2.
Damn thing gave me nightmares until I was 7.

>>54847173
>Ghouls 'n' Ghosts

Now that I read it it may have Ghosts 'n' Ghouls, eh whatever the name it was the master system version of Ghosts 'n' Goblins.

18 here. First games I owned were Vectorman and Shining in the Darkness on the Genesis.

>>54847173

/r/ picture of your mom. I want to build a shrine.

>>54847351
>Shadowgate at 2.

A text adventure...

Please tell me you played it with mom or something. If not, don't you have to build that cold fusion reactor or something, instead of hanging around /v/?

I would have been playing Missile Command, Pac Man, Miner 2049er, Aztec Challenge, and Defender on the family Atari 800 just about as soon as I could voluntarily control my hand muscles. Somewhere around the tail end of the 70s.

We had a pong console, and I remember playing it, but the Atari was my third parent.

Shadowgate had pictures. I'm told that I started really getting into reading at around age three, and spent most of my elementary-school childhood reading kids' encyclopedias and such. Doesn't mean I'm any sort of super-genius; the guys who start lusting over women at around age nine aren't sex addicts or casanovas either.

>I'm 33 year old

At least I'm not the oldest person on here

And it was a game like Centipede for the Apple IIe, we bought a joystick just for it.

Also some other game where you were a tank and shot big bouncing balls into little bouncing balls and half circles that popped up and down.

i'm 12 an I play Halo for a living wit my niggas downtown

22. I vaguely remember playing Jill of the Jungle on DOS when I was extremely young. Zork on DOS as well, I was so young that both games scared the shit out of me. That's prob why I remember them still haha. First games I actually played intelligently were on NES tho I believe, some mickey mouse adventure game and super adventure island...

Games had such a different feeling to them back then, its really sad how much feeling and sense of wonder we lose as we get older.

I'm 20 and the first game I remember playing....

Jesus, it's been a while. Played a little tetris and MS Flightsim 4.0 on my grandad's 386, Rise of the Triad on a 486DX, and of course, SMB3, SMB World, etc. Played Doom as well (my dad played doom back then) but I think that came a little later.

I nostalgia'd

Dad had an nes Super Mario bros and I was 4.

>>54848449

You where lucky to have the all the elements of the holy trinity together:

1) A 100% normal and functional brain.
2) As a child, you had a genuine interest in reading.
3)Your parents strongly supported your reading interest.

Result? You where one of those few child (but not that rare) that knew how to read and write before going to 1st year. I'm kinda jealous because my 8 soon to be 9 year old niece misses #1 and #2...

I'm 21 the first game I played was Super Mario Bros. 3 on Nes, I was 3.

26
Ghostbusters for the C64
No idea.

Twenty. StarFox 64.


Started late.

22, turning 23 next month.
First game was Safari Hunt on the Sega Master System.

I'm 24 years old and the first game I remember having played was Astyanax for the NES. It wasn't my first game, mind you, but the one that I remember the most clearly.

I'm actually 29, the first game I remember playing was in a pub in the UK. I'm not sure what the system was called but it was a flat table with seats around it, had 3 games one was space invaders, pacman and some game like space invaders but more like a scrolling SHMUP.

My parents used to drink in there cos it was our local and I used to sit at it for an hour or two with a tall glass of coke and ice just chillin and playing.

Im 16.duck hunt.NES.3

im 19, some childs game platformer with pop-eye for PC.

21. It was RC Pro Am I think. Or some boat race thing that's pretty famous and was on the NES. I have even more vague memories of cassettes and a commodore, but that is too distant to draw any conclusions from.

19, red alert, PC

wolfenstein 3d in black and white with no sound i was 7 years old i believe

I am 23 years old, and the first game I ever played was Asteroids for the Atari 2600 when I was about 5. Good times, good times.

14
Duke Nukem 3D when I was around 4 years old

Well, I'm 75 and when I was a wee child, I figured that a magnet against the tube did funny things. So, I imagined that I kill the little people with the magnet. How that for video games? Of course, I broke the very expansive TV and me dad beat me pretty bad. Now, I only play Wii sport, and I troll /v/.

16
Mortal Kombat 2 Snes

19, Joust for the GameBoy

I'm 21 years old, this is the oldest game I remember playing.

Ah, the days of floppies...

19 - Mario-Duckhunt

I'm 26, and my first game was Super Mario Bros. I remember playing as early as 4.

29, Asteroids at 4 years old.

I was born in july of 91, just before the snes came to america, despite that, i grew up with an nes until probably about the time the n64 was out. I remember at that time about we managed to get an snes. I remember playing games such as mega man x a lot on the snes but i especially remember playing chrono trigger on the snes in the transition from 1999 and 2000, I believe my brother told me "hey this is when lavos comes to destroy the earth" or something like that. During the times until I got the next generation I was completely unaware of the system that was the current gen until the game cube. I was set back a few years game wise and being a kid with few friends I didn't know anyone with a newer system.
BUT
to be more on topic my first game was certainly an nes game but it is hard to say whether it was mega man, mario, duck hunt, star tropics, freedom force, or any other assortment of the nes games.

19 yo.

Mario Land 2, at 4-5?

4 years old, oddworld abe's oddysee for the ps1

>>54851007

Wow. 4 year old. On 4chan. Now that a record!

I'm 21 and the first game I played was Clockwork Knight 2. I think I was 6 years old when I played it.

The first game I remember playing is either donkey kong country, closely followed by that power rangers game that was hard as hell.

This board is for 16 year olds and manchildren in their 20's only.

im 17 (yea yea underage fuck you)


was probably about 2 or 3, my first was Sonic the Hedghog 2 at my cousins house on the Genesis. I also remember REALLY knowing the concept of videogames as the N64, i would always play Turok:Dinosaur Hunter and Super Mario 64 at my uncles house

I don't remember my age, but my first game was pokemon silver.

I wish I had money for Soul Silver ;~;

>>54851986
>implying manchildren magically grow up when they reach a certain age

14 and super mario allstars for snes

>>54851765
>>54851787
I am by no means trying to instigate something. I'm simply stating fact, in my experiences with schooling mandatory classes are essentially a joke unless you take an advanced form of said class. The first game I remember, and constantly played was that of Super Mario Kart for the snes. I'm 17, my dad bought the system and was pretty excited to be the "cool dad". He is.

Super Battleship on SEGA. I was 5 or 6, and it was at a cousins house. I didn't own any gaming consoles yet, but I got a Gameboy for Xmas shortly after that. maybe I was younger? I can't remember...

My memories don't have a timeline that far back. I played Galaga in arcade. I'm pretty sure I played Space Invaders on PC but I never liked it so I must have played Galaxian on my Atari 2600 before that. First game I owned was Adventure for the 2600. My cousins were a bit older and had a missile command ripoff with teeth for the buildings...

I don't know, was before most people here were born though. I'm 28.

>>54852154
Please stop contributing to the stereotype that all people under the age of 18 are retarded fucknuts incapable of simple spelling whilst also maintaining a generally high typing speed with little to no spelling errors.

pogeymans sole seelver when I waz 12

>>54852381
On another note, if you practice good grammar it sticks with you. It only gets harder the more u type liek dis. I hope you see what i'm trying to say.

>>54852456
Agreed, the 15 and even 14 year olds in this thread are more respectable than you.

Doom for the playstation 1 or psx

I was 5 years old I think.

I was like 3. My dad bought MATH BLASTER for a computer running dos. shit was so cash

12 and pic related

I'm 16 right now.
One of the first things I remember is playing on our computer with floppy disks. We had like 50 floppy disks all with different stuff on them. And one of them had +100 games (I might be remembering it wrong, though... A lot of games anyway) and there were some pretty great games.
Black and white games fuck yeah.
It also had moving porn pictures.
I think I was 6 or 7?
Sounds pretty weird to have a computer like that in 2000, though...
Shit, my timeline is fucked up as all hell.

>>54852660


>>54852456
Ha these are either sarcasm or failed insults

I watched older siblings play vidya before I started myself, so it's hard to remember.

The first game I 'played' was probably super mario bros.3, although the first game that I played all the way through with some idea of what I was really doing would be Link to the Past.

Im 20.

>>54852592
I honestly don't know if you're trolling me or not. I'm on my iPod right now and i'm doing better then you.

>>54852625
Well I work on that, I used to just type out wont instead of won't and stuff like that. I do still use the built in spell checker, but I miss the letter i being capitalized because I expect the spell checker to catch it for me but it doesn't.

>>54852774
>>54852774
Extreme poorfag detected.

>>54852978
I am going to assume you are trolling me. What was really wrong with that post. If there is anything actually wrong with that then let me know.

62 - I think the first game I played was pong when it was first released, it helped ease my stress after my time in Vietnam.

I am 23 years old and the first game I remember playing was Legend of Zelda for NES. However I spent much time with a Colecovision before I got an NES of my own and moved forward through the generations.

>>54853226


Whatever you say, Bill.

>>54853057
Yet again, I think you're trolling me. If you aren't then you need to quit being so fucking lazy. Jesus christ man, you expected the computer to correct capitalization?
