I was only introduced to the Gaming world 2 or 3 years ago, and I'm very dissapointed that I hadn't found it sooner. My first ever game was probably (don't laugh) WindWaker for Gamecube. I was actually considering getting an X-Box, but thankfully Nintendo caught my eye more.

It's sorta the same with me. I played games from a fairly young age, but I really didn't understand them at all. In an odd way, I just recently really started gaming.

Anyway, what brought you to the hobby, Lakster?

I'm not quite that sure... Well, I think it's probably because around that time I was exposed to it more. It was one of the main thing I'd do at my friend's house. But that was really a year or two before I even bought my Gamecube. I think the game that made me decide to get it was Wind Waker. I still can't understand why people could hate it so much! I would'nt be here today if it weren't for Nintendo, so I'm eternally greatful.

I think the first game I ever played was Super Mario Bros. 3, but by then it was kinda old. The first game I ever owned was Super Mario Land on my Game Boy Pocket. Ahh the memories....

[IsawaTsujice]

I remember renting a Nintendo and borrowing Excitebike (or was it motocross?). It also came with Mario Bros.

For my birthday i got the big fat, grey, heavy Gameboy, and I LOVED it. I had tetris and Mario, and that game where you zap bricks to create holes to trap gnome things so you could collect the gold.
*edit* HYPER LODE RUNNER How could I forget you?


But I think my forst game was the downhill skiing game on Atari where you always got eaten by the abomidable snowman. I thought I was good enough to outrun him. I bet today I could.[/i][/b]

First one I played in my own house was Rambo First Blood back in the late eighties on my Commodore 64 Classic! I was a SEGA man all through the 90s and used to have fights at school with the Nintendo fans lol but now I love Nintendo

[morningrise]

I can't remember the exact first game... but my first Nintendo game was obviously Super Mario Bros.

My uncle took me to walmart one day when I was maybe 5 or 6 and bought me my first NES. I played SMB/DH incessently until they would set an egg timer for 45 minutes to limit my play (because I would get frustrated and yell at the tv)

a month or so later they said they had 2 new games for me, so when we went to visit I got Commando and Top Gun.

Those are some of my first Nintendo Memories.

[Bjorna]

I'm not sure, but I think the first game I ever played where some kind of game on a old computer, amstradt I think it was called. Then I played nes and snes and so on...

[robman1]

I'm pretty sure mine was SMB on the NES when I was five years old. Which would put it in 1995. Which I count as one of the reasons I really didn't understand the industry until the GameCube came out, and even then not as well as I do now.

Super Mario Bros.

When I was 3 years old. hehe (of course it was SNES not NES)

Then I dabbled in everything else. I was also known for pwning others without ever reading the manual. And that was before pwning was even a word.

[Rhaz]

First Game I ever Played was called Battle Toads, or something like that. (I was 6-7) For the sega genisis, it was the cheapest system around (I think)

But the first Game I beat was Legend of zelda: Links awakening for Gba, also the first nintendo game I played.

[N5 Dragon]

SMB

Easy as 1..2...whats the next one??

Oh ya, 3

[supertoad]

My first game was some Atari 2600 game. I don't remember which but that was my first system. The first Mario game I played was SMB.

[Jasoco]

Probably either Combat or Fast Food for the Atari 2600 when I was 3 or 4 back in 1983 or 1984. We got our NES in 1986 or so. But until then it was all VCS. Fast Food is the BOMB. Forget Adventure. It's all about eating as much as you can.

Also Video Pinball. It was one of those three games. Video Pinball is another awesome one.

[TMK]

wow, long time ago.. I dont actualy remeber the first game I played, or the first console. I know I played the NES but only after I bought it cause i played on someone elses console...

First game I remember playing is SMB.

[TheZapper]

Pole Position.

However, it was the original SMB that made me a gamer.

[kuraitenshikun]

I'm really not sure...

I remember my dad had one of those games that were on the large flat floppy disks. The older ones. We learned about them when I took A+ training, but I don't remember any of that anymore. Anyway, it was some game where you were a cowboy.

I don't think I can attribute my fascination with gaming to any one game.

[Saq]

Judging from my memory, the first game i played was Super Mario Bros 1. My very first run through it was so n00bish, what happened is, i was on the first level and i jumped past the little hole, and i didnt realise that holding the B button down would make you jump past it easier. So i was pretty bad for my first run. Slowly i got better over time on the new super mario bros to come though

[mr.x]

The first game I ever played was Homerun from Atari.I still have the cartridge.

[norman.conquest]

Atari Pong: 2600 era. I was mesmerized!

[Dthang]

for me its most likely duck hunt or super mario bros 3. but the game that i clearly remember playing around 4-5 years old is Altered beast for Genesis. haha i never could beat it back then sadly.....

[link0891]

Pitfall and/or River Raid were my first games. I think I was about 3 or 4.

[Nintend()\/\/|\|312]

Probably the original Donkey Kong on Colecovision. (I think.) However, when I was three or so I kind of sucked at gaming and never made it past the first level.

[(Insert_Username_Here)]

Super Mario Bros. I still remember the day we broght home the NES...that game came free with it


The first time I saw a videogame was bomberman... my cousind just let me play with the unplugged controller

[Diabolicscheme]

My first gaming memory is Super Mario Brothers when it first came out. I was waay to young to understand what I was doing.. but I remember playing it anyway
