This baseball game on an old Atari system. I vaguely recall a 4700 or something like that

I don't know for sure but it was probably an NES game (Super Mario, Donkey Kong, Duck Hunt...).

I'm not sure on the game but it was definately on an Atari 800XL system. Probably Centipede, Dig Dug, of Galaxian.

First one I had was an Odyssey2 that was given to my dad from someone he works with.

Quickly liked games and then bought an NES for myself.

I think it was something on the good ol' Sega Master System. Though it may have been something on the NES.

First "Console" I remember playing on was Atari 400, but we had a bunch of games and I can't remember which I played first. Maybe Wizard of Wor.

We had Odyssey ][ before that and I'm sure I played it, but I was 2-3 years old and don't remember actually playing it, although I remember the console itself being there.

The first one I remember playing was Apple Invaders - a Space Invaders Clone - on our Apple II.

I may have played something before that, but I can't recall.
