What was the era you first started gaming in?
Is great, and with all the retro love of the last few years, some of the games doesn't look that bad.
They are still really fun, and aged pretty well. It's amazing what that system could do in those times.
Look at this:

Get Hard Hat Mack and Ducks Ahoy!, 2 of my favorite games when I was growing up.

I agree on Ghost n Goblins, since you had to play the whole game over again after beaten once. Which is hilarious looking back now how I struggled to reach the last levels.
Mission Elevator was more for casual gaming, as it was pretty repetitive and already lots of fun on lower levels. But I think I've followed the "story-line" once and got all the keys and stuff to reach the roof. Can't quite remember how it actually ended though.

Well, I think that maybe was difficult for a 10 year old argentine boy with little or none knowledge of english.
But I couldn't find a non-TAS longplay of this game, so I don't know...

Ah the sound of the elevators brings back memories. The jump sound is different though, it was way more awkward.
However, can't remember the game being 16bit colored. Always thought it was just shades of green.
Can't believe that it was just 61 floors though, felt more like 600 and randomly generated.

Yeah probably. I also remember the loading screens of games loading line after line from top to bottom.

Same here, mate!
Still have a couple of those, plus a C128 at my parents' home (assuming they didn't throw/give them away).

The first game system I ever played was the NES but that was in the 90s, probably 10 years after it was first released (praise my gaming parents), I'm not sure what era that counts as

Sure haha I wasn't sure what to put...
I got an N64 shortly after falling in love with video games and I also played Lego Racers. I was really bad at it, but it was pretty cool how you could build your car.

Mario mostly.
Some duck hunt, tried Zelda and I didn't understand anything and thought it sucked, years later I tried it again and loved it.
I really don't remember what else, I have lot of memories of mario and playing it with my father but I can't picture any other game

Me too! Later upgraded to the G7400 before going to a Commodore 64, Amiga, PC, PS3, Xbox One and PC again :)
Seems it was released as the Magnavox Odyssey in the US.

I played Pac-Man when I was 2 years old.
Thereafter, we had a mac in the house, on which I played such classics as Sun Tzu's Ancient Art of War, Dark Castle, and Wizardry. My mother refused to let us have a console, but my brother and I saved up and bought a gameboy together.

SNES on 90's
Final Fantasy 5, Zelda and Chrono Trigger all day long.

It was right at the tail end of the 80's (like late 1989). My family got a used Atari 2600.
It came with Defender, Missile Command, 3D tic-tac-toe, Pac-man, Haunted house, Outlaw, Hangman and probably some other games I can't remember (can you blame me for not remembering what I owned when i was so young that I should have just about started forming permanent memories?). It died less than a year later, when my sister spilled a glass of milk on it.

Super Nintendo or Gameboy. Can't really remember which.
Hours and hours spent trying to beat the second castle in Super Mario Land.
Blew my mind when I discovered the Star Road on my own.
Now I look back and laugh at how much of a noob I was at gaming. Good times indeed.

My first was a Pong system from Radio Shack. It played Pong, Hockey, Squash (handball), and had a gun/rifle that allowed you to play Target which was just a ball bouncing around the screen or appearing randomly depending on the setting. The controllers detached from the base unit and had only vertical movement as the games didn't allow for moving horizontally on the screen. You could even buy a second pair of controllers and play with four people! It was called the TV Scoreboard and there were several different models including one that had rotary controls.
