I'll never forget it, Christmas day 1992, I was five years old and I unwrapped a big as heck box, there it was... My Sega Genesis, man I was so excited, I must've played Sonic the Hedgehog for hours and I forgot what other games I got but man was it fun.

zarny

The first game I got was cool boarders and the first system I got was a PS1

The first system I got was a Gameboy Color along with this game:
Retro Uprising - Arcade - V rally Championship Edition

Man I will never forget my first GBC, I remember it was the green one, and my first games for it were Pokemon Pinball and Pokemon Red & Blue.

Slime Slayer

my mom brought me home a 2600 when i was about 6, it came in and old box of jumbled wire and had a few games, possibly: boxing, ice hocky, donkey kong, solaris maybe, these are just a few i dont remember buying.

Game I first played was Super Mario Bros. 3. First system that was handed down to me from my Parents was a Sega Genesis with Sonic 2.

bakingumby

first game I remember playing was super mario world.
first system I actually owned was a sega genesis.
man thats goin back to when I was like 5 years old...good times!

Demon-Mask

It was a SNES, when the N64 was really big, and I was in the second grade, and the first game was Super Mario World, that was when I got hooked on video games.

RU Joe

and I loved it.
Asteroids, Space Invaders, Pitfall, Combat, Yars Revenge and a couple I remember but not the names.
Pac-Man was a huge let-down though.



They really butchered it.

Most of you people are making me feel old.

Christmas morning, 1982 I opened up what is still one of my all-time favorite systems, the ColecoVision.

zarny

Cool Boarders is a very "cool" game, lol.
Its a snowboarding game. It has many differenet hills and events.
I liked the game alot.

Chuck Norris

Dude I wish I had a Coleco Vision, albeit I still have my uncle's Atari 2600 and my Sega Genesis, man people have offered me thousands for those two but I refuse, it's not the money it's the sentimental value and the fact that my uncle passed away of lung cancer in 2003, if I sell it he's gonna haunt me until I'm dead

Kong

My parents had an Atari 2600 that I first played when I was about 6 - 1984. They had about 20 games so I don't remember the very first one I played. Technically that was never my system. After that I found a Telstar Pong system in the attic and claimed it as my own. My grandparents had an Intellivision with about 20 games. Same deal, I don't remember the first one I played and I didn't really own it. In 1988 I received an SMS for Christmas. The first game I played on it was Safari Hunt and then Hang-On. A week later I got about 5 more games. I remember Ghost House and Ghost Busters was two of them. A couple years later I got a Genesis and the first game on it was Altered Beast.

Tails

No wonder your so sentimental with the SMS Kong. :P

Is it true the Colecovision has a bad controller?

CatalystiCam

Tenser, my first system that I was allowed to play by my brothers was colecovision... didn't last long, but it's true, and you're like 15 years older than me

Edit: the colecovision controller is bad, my hand actually sweats after I've used it 30-60 minues, I use my right hand to hold under it, and my left for that joystick, the super action controllers are better, don't know if you have any of those...?

Chuck Norris

Tenser you're not old

Dudebro

I was gonna say the same thing.

I don't remember the first system I played, it was either Atari or Colecovision. The first system I really got into was NES, hard to forget that epic system.

Yeah I used to play it a lot and it is a cool game.


Moved this because it's game related, carry on.

Kugyince

It was far better than the Atari controller. The stick was designed to mimic a cabinet's.

What fool would offer that much money for a 2600 and Gen?

Old and grumpy.

OldTimer

@ tenser Old enough to be grumpy with no reason

I remember the colecovison, playing a game with 2 planes trying to shoot each other.

My first system was the atari and the game kaboom. I think I was 5. When I woke up at night I could bust my dad playing it. Another game was 4 fortresses in the corners and playing a pong like match. These games were awesome with the paddle.

simgeezy33

My favorite game was Super Mario Bros. back in 1985 christmas morning

CatalystiCam

Tenser was so lucky too, his aunt gave him like every colecovision game... did you get any super action controllers tenser?

joz

first game I played was Donkey Kong Jr. on arcade. I would play it at the local flea market every weekend when my grandma would take me to sell soda pop to people walking around. My pay was 2 to 4 bucks in quarters and I would play like there was no tomorrow!

First system was the Atari with Pac-Man and Joust

Chuck Norris

Some guy last year offered me like 3 grand for them because he was collecting old systems, even though I told him you could like get a Sega Gen for like 5 bucks on Ebay
