Siper Mario Land on the GameBoy. I still play it from time to time, but on the GBA, as the old GB doesn't work anymore

I say physical copy because, PC and Console gamers alike both used to be sold in physical copies before digital distribution.Also so that emulator and digital version of old games wouldn't count. I want to know what is the Oldest ( even if you didn't own it when the game came out but you do now ) game in your library.

(Bonus points if someone still owns a game on floppy disks ).

I didn't get a PC until i was about 10 ( i am 23 now ) , so my oldest game is the original Lengend of zelda for the NES. And i still play it at least once every 2 years just because i find it great.

Your turn .
Eternal Eyes on Playstation 1 from about 1990, it was one of the earliest PS1 games

I still own physical copies of a bunch of old Lucasarts games, the oldest of which I believe is Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis.

I was about to say Destruction Derby but then I remembered my Game Boy's existence and with it Star Wars, which is as old as I am (released in 1991).

Uhh, I got a couple PS2 games, but I don't know which is the oldest out of them.

I think Dark Cloud was pretty early in the PS2's run, or maybe Star Ocean.


EDIT: D'oh, nevermind. I just realized that I have old PC games. Changing my answer to Diablo.

My oldest is Super Mario Land for the Gameboy. :3 1989

I wasn't even born then, I think one of my parents found it in a garage sale.

A tie! Between: Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender -- StarControl II

More recognizable to some, from a few years later: Warcraft II. I never bought the first game.

Might & Magic: World of Xeen compilation, I believe.

Though I did own Twinky Goes Hiking on tape, and a Commodore 64 to go with it when I was a kid.
