If we're discussing 'proper' games, it would be Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega Master System.

Before that, sure I played basic computer games on the family's PC at the time, but we're talking really basic - like, "add numbers together and win" sort of thing. If they were named, I can't remember them.

 

[Elvis Starburst]

I *think* it was either Super Mario 64 or Star Fox 64. Prooobably Star Fox, thinking back

 

[Agema]

Not entirely sure, but it was either Pong or Combat on a friend's Atari 2600.

 

[Chimpzy]

I think it was Golden Axe on an arcade cab at a supermarket.

 

[Catfood220]

I can't remember what game it was, but it was something on my neighbours Amstrad computer. Very vague answer I know, but it was over 35 years ago.

 

[Offworlder]

Altered Beast on MegaDrive. Probably shouldn't have been playing it, but its the easiest I remember playing.

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

Pac-Man. When it was new.

 

[laggyteabag]

Something on the Sega Megadrive/Genesis.

The first game that I can remember was Gunstar Heroes

 

[XsjadoBlayde]

Damn, think it might've actually been the original Doom on the only classroom PC in an old village primary school. Could've also been Lemmings, as they were both on there and the only way they could be played was by arriving too early in the morning. An unexpected remembrance.

The next time was Aliens or Mario on the SNES console at parents friends house. Did not get to own any of the cool stuff though, especially not a PC.

 

[Kae]

Some Arcade game called Ninja Combat which wasn't great, it was at the grocery store which was near the house I lived in when I was 5.

 

[Elijin]

That I remember playing AND the name of?

Jill of the Jungle or Commander Keen

 

[AnxietyProne]

Atari Combat for the 2600

 

[Zykon TheLich]

I do remember playing some sort of WW2 bomber game on a friend's Sinclair Spectrum. There are probably earlier ones but I don't recall enough to be sure.

 

[hanselthecaretaker]

Probably something like Pitfall, Frogger, Pole Position or Montezuma’s Revenge. All those pre-Nintendo classics played with an actual joystick.

 

[TheMysteriousGX]

Daycare I was at had a Ms Pac-Man and a Golden Axe-esc arcade machine. After that it was an Atari 2600, either Combat, Adventure, for a missile command knockoff. I seem to remember an Atlantis themed one

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

Super Mario World ca. 1994.

 

[Drathnoxis]

Super Mario Bros. 3

 

[Gergar12]

Ace Combat on the Gameboy.

 

[happyninja42]

Probably Karateka on the Atari 2600. That's the one that sticks out that I can name.

Also Starflight that I played on my dad's PC. They are probably my earliest gaming memories. There's probably others from the arcade Aladin's Castle that I spent years of my life in, but...I can't really give you a timeline of when that was in relation to anything else, or the various games off the top of my head. That time is all a really blurry just, foggy "dawn of time" for my memory. Few things are signature enough to stick out, especially in relation to anything else as far as chronology.
