What was the first game you played, and at what age?

[NJ Ninja]

I don't really remember, but I'd have to say Kirby's Adventure at age 3.

 

[Steck]

Toy Story for the Game Boy when I was 5
my second game was DK country for the Game Boy

 

[Golem the Stern Father]

Age 7: Super Smash Brothers!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (truth)

 

[stranga]

Not sure how old I was but it would have to be street fighter 2 for me

 

[SagaKirby]

Donkey Kong country, Age 2.

 

[lowradiation8989]

Either first or second grade. It was Rogue Squadron, for the N64.

 

[~rh]

Street Fighter II at age six! <3

 

[Rew]

Super Mario Bros., age 8. (This was the summer of 1989 for those keeping score at home.)

I only played it because it was available for play at the after-school program I had to attend over the summers when I was a kid. It wouldn't be until a year or two later that I owned an NES and my first game, which at that time was Super Mario Bros. 3 (which still reigns to this day as my favorite NES game ever).

Not counting educational games, the first game I played (but not neccessarily owned) was...



...Wolfenstein. You gotta love shooting Nazis and dogs!

Spoiler

I'm not joking.

Ohh man I will never forget it. I went to the store with my parents and walked by the electronics section, thats where i played Super Mario World. Man that game blew me away! I was around 7 at the time and thats what sparked my love for video games.

 

[L 17]

Super mario world, age 2. My whole family played it all the time. Playing that game is one of my first memories all together.

 

[Johnthegalactic]

First video game, SSB for the 64!
I was about uh...5-6 ish, I showed master hand who was boss(although I called him glover).

Geez i can't remember, It was either Ape Escape for PS1, Toy Story 2 for PS1, or Super Mario Land: 6 Golden Coins all at age 4

 

[ThreeX]

I don't remember the age.. but I do remember playing super mario bros. as child, real young.. but i won't count that. The first game I actually GOT INTO, was Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, one of the best games..ever :] for the SNES. I had just got the SNES for x-mas, and that was my first game. I still remember the first time I put it in, my dad had said I would like it cause it was sword fighting etc, and I was intantly complaining saying "where is my sword? why don't I have one?"


but err, why am I typing a life-story over here... hah, nice thread though.

 

[Rx-]

I know it was Super Mario Bros.

And I was 3-4

 

[Scott!]

Probably it's Sonic Spinball, which came packed with my Genesis I got for Christmas when I was like 5 or so. Though we did have an old computer with stuff on it before that, but Sega was my first console.

 

[Airgemini]

The earliest I can remember is the first Sonic game for the Sega.

 

[Bahamut]

Ninja Gaiden. I was barely 3.

 

[Zero Beat]

^^lol Ninja Gaiden 2 is looking soo good.

First game ever was Super Mario World.

First game I ever bought for the first Xbox was Test Drive.

 

[Zema]

I think Super Mario Bros All Star... SMB3 for that matter.

 

[Autydragoon]

Pokemon Silver was one of the first games I played. It was what got me into playing videogames.

 

[A_man13]

My first was some sorta've Hot Wheeles game when I was 4.

 

[ShaolinAce]

Super mario bros and duck hunt. The eralies memory in my life.

 

[chaos_Leader]

It had to either have been Sonic the Hedgehoge on Sega Genesis or The Empire Strikes Back on Super NES, I forget which one.

 

[Keyy]

The first Prince of Persia on a 286. No idea how old, my memory sucks.

Also I'm not going to believe those people who have like a Samus main icon and say their first game was Metroid. Mario is an exception.

 

[MetaZone]

Hey I forget one game! When i was little I played old first Worms game with my friend. I think we were 3 ages old. Gotta love that game. I still play it on Dosbox.

 

[DARKALONDITE]

Street Fighter 2 on the arcade when I was 3 years old. That game was difficult (for me) but ridiculously fun.

 

[Plazma]

Don't know for sure the very first one, but the earliest games I can recall playing were super mario bros 3 for the nes, duck hunt, bugs bunny's birthday blowout, and a few others
