    First video game/system? Tales from the past.

    Let's hear some nostalgic stories about your first gaming experiences.

    My first game was Super Mario Bros on the 8-bit Nintendo, NES.
    The game came bundled with the console. I remember the first day I would just watch when my father and brother played the game. And the next morning when i was home alone before going to school, I turned the game on, and i did couple of random jumps and whatever, and then i pressed the start button and paniced because the game "froze" (paused) and then i just left the game on and went to school thinking i broke the console or something
    When i got home my father was there looking at the tv and wondering who paused the game like couple of meters after the starting point.

    My first game was ten years ago on the N64, I believe it was Star wars: rogue squadron, then lego racing, then some sesame street game lol(I was 5 at the time).
    Till this day I still think lego racing was a freaking awesome game

    Nes was my 1st. Got it for christmas along with Mario/Duckhunt/Track and Field. Also got X-men and Bugs Bunny's crazy Castle.

    I was kinda late into the videogame thing, it was like 4th grade. I used to go to my friends house and play Atari a lot before that.

    I started with a Super Nintendo and Super Mario World that I received for my 5th birthday. There was already an NES in the house but I hadn't touched any video games up until that point since I was rather young. I've also never played an Atari or Sega console in my life.

    I honestly don't know the name of the first machine I played on. It was about 1983/4. It had 4 games: tennis, hockey, tennis doubles and hockey doubles. Each game was basically a variation of pong with diffierent screen orientations/more paddles lol.

    After that it was the AmstradCPC464!!! Chuckie Egg and Wonderboy!
