Title says it all, what was the first game you remember playing and had fond memories of?
For me it was the PS1, and hearing the OG Crash Bandicoot theme song never gets old for me, got it as my ringtone too!
I don’t know the name. In the afternoons in the early nineties after school I was at a neighbor’s house. Her husband had a PC and a joystick connected to it sparked my interest. He showed me a flight game. I don’t remember much detail, but it was a vector based game with fast action based flying and you had to bombard or shoot enemy bases. The next thing I remember is my mother calling our neighbor when I planned to come home because it was already getting late and I had never stayed that long before.
Various demos on PS1 demo discs
Oldest game I remember playing (when it was new) was Lemmings on the Macintosh. Early 1990s. I can still hear the tunes.
Lego Star Wars on a PS2 at a friend’s place.
Combat on the Atari 2600. There are games I remember better, but I do know that was my favorite… just no one would play it with me.
Pong on the Atari 2600.
Well my first game I think it was Duck Hunt with my family and I didn’t understand how to play it lmao.
But the game I played alone for the first time was Mega Man & Bass on an zsnes emulator on our family pc.
Super Mario Bros on the NES. I remember getting super frustrated and throwing a tantrum because I couldn’t figure out how to jump over the second hole. Hahahaha man I was pathetic.
Hell yeah. I played duck hunt first, because my dumb ass didn’t understand a controller but cold BANG BANG at that fucking dog.
Then I discovered Mario.
Third was Dig Dug. I hate Dig Dug.
Rainbow Island was my shit.
That first goomba killed me three times in a row. Took a little bit to figure out the jump timing.
Sheesh. That’s a tough one. My memory is trash from TBIs… Maybe pong, or space invaders? I think it would be something that was in an arcade. Our first console was the NES with SMB, but we definitely played in arcades before that.
For me it must’ve been either one of the Commander Keen games or the original Prince of Persia back in the early 90s. Still damn good games.
It was a racing game I can’t remember the name of on our first computer, a TI-99.
Wizard of Wor on C=64
we had quite a few carts so it might not have been first but it certainly was the most played
Mattel Electronic Football
most likely Peek-a-Boo, or outside either Tag or Hide and Seek, if not something like Mouse Trap or Candy Land for board games
If you’re asking about video games, Pong on some sort of Realistic/Tandy console system in the late 70s when I would go to work with my father at Radio Shack (back when it was legit) and he would put me in front of the black&white.
