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.
Mario/duck hunt for NES
Legend of Zelda back in 1989
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
It might be Jak & Dexter: TPL.
best.
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.
Pong
Jazz JackRabbit on MS-DOS on my dad’s computer.
Pong
On a dedicated pong computer… Only had pong, and nothing else…
I have very fond memories of playing Freddie Fish in our local library while my father thought I was going to children’s choir stuff (I hated it and was hanging out in the library instead, just to be back in time, when my father came to pick me up again).
Probably The Incredible Machine (aka TIM)
Tetris on the OG Gameboy
PONG in the late 70s, at a pizza parlor.
Original pong, at the Toronto international boat Show, probably in about 1977.
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.
