first game I got into was Pokemon Blue, but Guild Wars is what turned me into a gamer
Hello Kitty No Hanabatake I believe was the very first video game I played when I was like 4. PGA Tour Y2K was a banger too.
The First Metroid. We had a shop nearby with a NES and the multi cartridge switcher. There was Zelda, Super Mario and all the rest. But Metroid always caught my attention. To this day I think metroidvanias are my fav genre.
My dads collection of pirated games :)
I have these faint memories of watching my uncles play The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends for NES when I was super little. That’s probably where I first got an interest. But then the first game that I actually played myself that got me truly hooked was Super Mario World for SNES.
Still one of my favorite games ever.
Civilization 1.
I was first blown away with SimCity 4. My uncle had a pretty decent computer for the time, which could properly run it and I spent hours loving it. My nephew had RTC2 which we played for days on end, the first game I played through at home was Age of Mythology. I guess it shows where my love for strategy/simulation games comes from.
The first game I ever really wanted to get good at was the arcade game spy hunter. The first time I got the speed boat was a dopamine high I’ve never recreated.
We have a Home Movie of me at 3 years old playing Tetris on my cousin’s Gameboy. I don’t remember a time that video games weren’t a part of my life.
The first game I remember realy clicking for me was Donkey Kong Country. I can still play that game off muscle memory alone.
Pole Position II on Atari 7800.
I got a Sega Genesis at 5. I had Sonic 1 and 2, and tiny toon adventures. Tiny Toon Adventures slaps.
My parents got me my first video game when I was 3 years old called Ready for Math with Pooh. I still remember some of the games!
Pokemon Platinum
Minecraft Demo version on my grandpa’s iPad. It blew my little 5 year old mind.
