As far as I can remember, I was never exposed to or played any video games until I was 6 years old and some kid who lived across the street invited to come and play on his SEGA Genesis, where we played this: ..and I was stuck with being player 2, having little to no clue how to even control my character or receiving much help. After that rough experience, I kept on playing with LEGO blocks and other kid toys, showing no interest in video games until I got a Game Boy Advance that same year for Christmas. (the old battery-powered, no backlight version. This was 2001) And I wasn't stuck with portable for long either, as I would also obtain a Hot Wheels-themed Windows 98 PC for my birthday in February 2002 and became a casual PC gamer. I did not become the console gamer that I have been for years until my grandparents got me a Gamecube for Christmas that year, complete with Super Mario Sunshine and a few other fun games. How old were you when you began playing games? What was the first game you ever played, if you can remember that far back? (and if it had multiplayer, were you P1, P2, P3, or P4?) |
| My first game is Red Alert 2. Started playing games when I was 5. |
 |
| I waan't a console kid I'm afraid. The first games that I got to play were the first episode of Wolfenstein 3D and Living Books games (I mostly recall "Harry and the Haunted House" and " Just grandma and me") on the family's Macintosh when I was between 2 or 3. Later on I would play with my cousin's NES and more complex games like Marathon Durandall. |
 |
| Super Mario Bros 1 for NES. Amazing and addictive. Good old days. |
| Earliest game I remember must be Mickey Mania on Sega. That game was hard! |

| Habbo & Neopets, first RPG was Nostale |
 |
 ... or at least it's the first game I remember playing. |
| Duck Hunt was my first game that I remember...we later got an N64 from my uncle and the game he gave us with it was Mario Kart |
| 毎日, 日本語を勉強する |
| um that small pixelated motor bike racing game you know i dont remember its name...it was 2d |
| Pepsi Man for the PS1. Not only the best advertisement ever in video game form, but it also has one of the catchiest theme songs. Edit: Actually it was Destruction Derby 2 lol. Just remembered after a conversation with someone about it xD |

| I started out like many, with the Super Mario/Duck Hunt cartridge that came with my NES for Christmas in 1992. I played many great NES games in the early 90s, like Startropics, Mega Man III, and River City Ransom. I got a Genesis in 1994, and an SNES in either 1995 or 1996, and I rented many games from my local video store. I've been playing video games for 26 years at this point, but I spend far less time playing video games now than I did when I was younger. |
 |
| I'm 100% sure it was Uncharted 1: Drake's Fortune. I played it on the PS3 when I was still just a toddler. It was a great experience, I guess. |
| Only in death are we all equal. |
| Rayman for PS1, the original cupman. |
I don't remember my first time of playing on computer cause I had less than 2 years old , but if I will memorize which games I was playing when I was 4 y.o the oldest ( and probably my first game ) Was Delta force from novalogic made in 1998 |
| The first game I played was Pokemon Red. I was 4 or 5. |
 |
| Probably around 4-6yo can't remember the age but it was on the Game Boy advanced, super mario or kirby. Good days. |
 "That is why I prefer using you two pistols. There is symmetry to wielding you two, right? (Getting aggravated) But when you two are in human form, your hairstyles and your heights are completely different... (Grabs their breasts) Even your cup sizes are completely different!"

| New Super Mario Bros Wii I believe. |
I'm a shitposter for fun |
| It was either Super Mario Bros or Duck Hunt. I had multiple games on the cartridge and I can't remember exactly which one I started up first. |
 |
| the first game i played, ah this is a hard one, from what i can remember it would be animal crossing on gamecube after my dad got it in america since it was such a hard game to get in UK, but i could be wrong, my household definitely has had over 1k games in it's time cause we have so many different consoles. #thanksdad |
| I remember the first computer i ever owned was purchased from some shady guy. It was made by Nokia and the dude had some random game installed on it. The game was titled "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" quite a weird game. had some weird puzzle elements , tho i cant remember it well. Even tho it sucked major dongers i was hooked on gaming ever since. After that battle toads cought my attention and the rest is history. |
| My first console was Super Nintendo .. not quite sure which game I played first, I had the console as early as 3, 4 years old. First game I remember enjoying was Mega Man X, I also remember playing Mario All Stars quite a bit. |
 |
| It was Avatar arena or something, I was like 15 years old. After that I only played 4 other games; Tera online, Wolrd of Tanks,Monster hunter and 1 month of Final fantasy online. |

| The Addams Family: Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt on Nintendo. |
 Jungle Book, the video game, woah. |
 Fun game, never beat the final boss. GBA was broken. Couldn't save the files :( |
| I think it was Pikmin, for the gamecube. Either that or Majora's Mask, not quite sure. I didn't have any consoles as a kid unfortunately, so I played it at a friends house. |
 |
| Super Mario World for the SNES back in 1991. |
| probally mario party 2, 3 or pokemon yellow, can't really remember |
| The first video game that I ever played was one of the Super Mario Bros video games for the NES. However, I grew up more during the SNES era. But my family would still play the NES in addition to the SNES. |
| If I remember correctly, my first game was Rugrats: The Search For Reptar for PS1. :) |
| The first game i ever played is definitely one of the first 3 sonic games on the mega drive. I was probably 3 or 4. I do remember in sonic 2 or 3 i'd always be P1. Leaving my mum to play as tails and be constantly left behind. Being P2 was never much fun in those games XD |
| i don't remember which, but it was one of these Spongebob: battle for the Bikini Bottom Spawn: Armageddon Spyro or Sly Cooper |
My father has always used Linux, so my first game ever was Tux Racer |
| One of the Pokemon games. I can't remember but I remember it had colors so it isn't old. It was on my GameBoy Advance. Good memories. |
| I'm pretty sure it was Sonic 3. That and one of the Road Rash games are the only Genesis games I remember playing. |
| The first one that i can remember playing was Murloc RPG. |
| My first game was Primal Rage...and I was probably too young to be playing it at the time. |
 |
| I was probably 7 to 10-ish. No idea which game was first, but our first computer didn't have too many, and it would be one of them. I remember Snapper (Pacman clone), Starship Command (shooty rotation-based thing where it wasn't even trivial to tell whether something was the turning control because your ship stayed in the same place and the world turned, so they didn't need to create rotated ship sprites, and you needed to launch an escape pod before your ship was destroyed,) a couple of text adventures, one of which was called Philosopher's Quest, Free Fall (guy in a spacesuit rotates and rams into enemies,) some sort of Mars lander clone thing, Firebug and Boxer (primitive fixed-screen platform things,) and Escape from Moonbase Alpha (run around rooms with randomly generated links looking for gold to pay the Doctor for escape, easily became impossible due to bad luck.) |
| I was about 2-3 years old when I played Sonic Adventure 2 for the first time on GameCube. |
| Super Mario Bros on NES. 5 yrs old. |
 |
| Pokemon Red on the Gameboy Color. Good times! Still have it lying around somewhere. |
