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!
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.
That first goomba killed me three times in a row. Took a little bit to figure out the jump timing.
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.
On my dad´s 386 PC: Prince of Persia, Dune II, Doom
On my Amiga 500: Turrican I + II, Street Fighter II, Lemmings I + II
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.
Mario/duck hunt for NES
I’m pretty sure it was Pong on a dedicated console from Sears. I remember playing Pong when I was super young, but I don’t remember if that was at the same time as us getting an Atari 2600 or not.
Was it pong with two gigantic, wired controllers with turn knows? That’s what we had
I can’t remember if it was the one with wired controllers or the one with one box that had two wheels
Legend of Zelda back in 1989
OG NES Duck Hunt.
Wolfenstein, in my dad’s office on his work computer while he was teaching.
Dad’s colleague: [sticks his head in the door] Hey, what are you doing?
Me: Killing Nazis with a Gatling gun.
Colleague: Oh, well that’s good [comes in to watch].
I’m pretty sure it was Paperboy on one of those Tiger Handhelds. Looking them up now brings back memories.
I can’t remember if I played this first, or Tetris. It was probably pretty close for me?
Total annihilation on pc. That game was dope when I was a young teen.
Pokemon blue on gameboy or Super Mario 64… both were around the same time I think.
Just got retroarch setup with all N64 games so the nostalgia train is about to start rollin’!
Pokemon Yellow over here, with by brother getting Pokemon Red.
It might be Jak & Dexter: TPL.
best.
Crash Bandicoot Warped for me.
The Warp Room soundtrack is still stuck in my head twenty years later.
This wasn’t my very first game, but was definitely an early one I played. I beat the remake recently and it was exactly the way I remembered it.
I had a Commodore 64. I played Ultima 3 and Archon (wizard’s chest) as my first games I really liked.
Jazz JackRabbit on MS-DOS on my dad’s computer.
