Your very earliest memory of any video game, I can only just remember watching my older sister play Pacman on the Atari 2600, Would have been when I was 2 apparantly, For some reason I never wanted to play it i just liked to watch im guessing because those ghosts had me dead with in seconds its only when I got my nintendo 64 when I started to play some games like Banjo Kazooie and Super Mario 64 I wouldve been 4 or 5.

I think it may have been Chips Challenge. I'm unsure of this though. Being so long ago, I can't really remember.

I remember playing Super Mario Land 2: Six Gold Coins on the original Gameboy... I know I was in Pumpkin Zone... And I know I died really fast.

In my front room, suddenly my dad gives me his Gameboy colour as a random present, along with an old mario game. I then proceed to play it all day :') and then in the very near future, Pokemon Blue!

Such happy, young days :D

Starting Emerald Hill Zone on Sonic 2 when my dad let me have a go. Not sure how old I was, probably 3 or 4. I know it was before I was 5 because I used to run home from nursery to play it.
I also remember dying once and then crying because the game beat me. Yeah, fun times.

Super Mario Bros. when it first came out. I was @ 13 (you do the math) and I started doing odd & after school jobs for money to buy it myself (I got the system as a present). I think the store in NYC where I bought it was called Crazy Eddie (way defunct now). Haven't thoght about htat in forever. Make way kiddies! - Old man traveling down memory lane!

Playing Tetris in the car with my sister. Those melodies will never leave me.

That is how I got my first handheld! My Dad just randomly handed me a gameboy and I got Super Mario Deluxe and Yellow as my first games.

Good times indeed!

That would be the loading screen for my Sinclair ZX Spectrum and the wonder of the Dizzy egg franchise :)

Realising that if you triple-jump into a certain level in Super Mario 64 then the water level starts off high...

And wondering why I couldn't walk up the staircase...
