Your First Games

[Joe]

My first console was the Game Boy, and my first game was Super Mario Land. I would've just turned 6 at the time. That was shortly followed by the SNES with Zelda and Mario Kart. Great! What were your first gaming experiences?

 

[Dave]

Getting my Sega Genesis for my sixth Christmas. Good times. Power Rangers, Prime Time, PacMan, Boogerman, Sonic, Street Fighter, and Battle Toads were some of my first games.

 

[Tarvis]

Atari 400 (http://oldcomputers.net/atari400.html) with Star Raiders when I was like 2 or 3.

 

[Joe]

Man I never even heard of the Atari 400.

 

[Dave]

damn travis got an early jump on gaming!

 

[Bronson]

I got an NES for my third birthday. The old SMB/Duck Hunt combo. I took turns playing with my dad.

 

[Logan]

[aaron]

the first game i 'remember' playing is donkey kong country.

 

[SuperAfroBoy]

First game was SMB/Duckhunt when I was 3.

 

[Joe]

I still maintain that the SNES Mario Kart is the best one in the series.

 

[Patrick]

Well I'm pretty sure we all have the same roots. NES, original Gameboy. I remember playing tetris on the gameboy for crying out loud. I remember when we RENTED a Super Nintendo. It came with Street Fighter II I believe.


I remember how the NES working half the time was routine, etc etc.

 

[Joe]

I never had a NES, but yeah I remember Tetris GB. I remember not being able to beat my dad's high score!

 

[Bronson]

Tetris GB was awesome.

Yeah NES never worked.

Only system I ever rented was PS1.

 

[Patrick]

we rented snes and n64 when that was available as well.

i remember golden eye being too intense for me so i shut it off.

i also remember the day we bought an n64 i couldn't use the analog stick very well. we had mario 64 and i couldnt' get him to run in a straight line at first.
