What is your earliest gaming memory? [New bonus retro GA]

Two early memories:

-- Playing Frogger on the Atari before my parents took me to school.
-- Wandering around Skara Brae trying to find the Review Board where I could level for the first time in Bard's Tale 1, then later getting a shock when I wandered into a random dungeon room and was attacked by 4 groups of 99 barbarians. Good times.

Hmmm, video games. Pong circa 75/76.

Card games, probably about the same time or a year earlier.
Fond memories of playing Gin Rummy with dad.
He'd never go easy on me and let me win a hand I didn't legitimately win.

My oldest gaming memory is the first game I ever played, as far as I know. It was some obscure, unfinished game demo on a floppy which I don't remember the story of how we got our hands on, it's called Darkwolf. For a long time, there was no trace of it on the internet - but the internet is an ever-growing wealth of information, and not only can you now find information of the game, you can even download and play it.

I have fond memories of double dragon/river city ransom/tetris/contra/duck tales/Doom/Top Gun/Punch Out! and the old pc version of Pirates!, but I don't know which was my earliest memory. There was some also a text adventure game for the pc where something called a grue would kill you in the darkness, but I don't remember the name of it...maybe it was Zork. I guess probably one of those.

Combat, Air-Sea-Battle, Space Invaders and Outlaws on the old wooden Atari 2600

Probably playing Pac-Man, Combat and Video Olympics with my older brother on the Atari 2600.

My dad used to be a cop. One day he brought a Sega Genesis from a raid they made to a sort of black market. He even brought it in a garbage bag. My mom and I connected the console and played a vikings game similar to streets of rage. Don't even remember the name. That was around 1998.

Pokemon Sapphire on a GBA a cousin of ours let us play on a visit. 👍

super mario flash and some spiderman game that had venom

First game I ever played was "Stargate" on an Atari 2600 Junior in our living room, sitting wayyy too close to an old CRT TV, playing for hours on end until Mum called for dinner. From then on, I was hooked.

My first gaming memory is most likely from early 2000s too, and it was some flight/spaceship simulator from 80s or 90s. I was really bad at it :D

When I was little, I would play Solitaire, Minesweeper, and 3D Pinball Space Cadet on Windows 95. I also remember playing CD ROM games we would borrow from the library back when that was a thing.

Super Mario Bros on the NES
i was like 6 or something

Someone mentioned prince of persia (the old one) which same, and to add something different my other two games remember from around the same time are the first jazz jackrabbit, and this one point and click pink panther game

Starcraft in a friend house when i was 6 ... im still playing it jajajaja

Snoopy and Tennis

Cool thread, here's a fitting GA for a collection of games. Some of these were the hot stuff among me and my friends for a period of time and brought some of the coolest early gaming memories (also introduced me to gamer rage lol).

Some pong in my dad's Atari

1988, Super Mario Bros on the NES. First Arcade experience was around the same time, Bubble Bobble. First PC Gaming Experience was Lemmings on a Macintosh in I think 95.

Playing River Raid on C64. Damn, I sucked at this game as a kid :D

the demo of the first LEGO Racers.
Racing on some sort of pirate cove.

Mixed-Up Mother Goose, MS-DOS.

I believe my first gaming experience was with a little LCD game like the nontendo game & watch that was serving people in a diner.
My first gaming experience on a computer was Enduro Racer on a Timex Computer 2048, that is a Portuguese clone of the ZX Spectrum.

final fantasy 9 on ps1 and the gameboy games :)
