Don't really remember. Pong on Intellivision I think.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

Tetris

 

[Kaervak]

Some mouse maze game on the Amiga 500. I can't remember the name of it though.

 

[thawolfman]

...Something on C64 - no clue what it was though

Probably Pong on an Interton VC4000 Video Computer.

Or maybe a 2D platform game I used to play on my friend's Amstrad (can't remember the name).

 

[Honkus]

Super Mario Brothers in 1987. I was 5 years old

 

[slpaulson]

I'm guessing Super Mario Bros on the original NES, but I"m not totally sure.
Actually it was probably something in the arcade. I used to love this one jet fighter game for the original SEGA.

some atari game with a little guy jumping over a flame, and then he would try to run around and grab stuff, and try not to get burned by the dragon.

Another 70s Ponger, here.

First arcade video game was Space Invaders. Even at age 9, I figured out that the Space Invaders machine at my local WalMart would give free games if I whacked the coin return.

it was a driving game on the first atari with the paddle controlers.. It was awesome when you had to drive at night and when the roads where "snowy" hahah

Enduro? I don't remember that one using the paddle controllers, but maybe it did. Awesome game, having to get through the course within a specified timeframe. If you completed it, you got to go through it again, but with less time on the clock.

 

[LongAce]

Pong

 

[edro]

Intellivision - Baseball or Astrosmash, I forget which game was actually first.

 

[neotype]

It was a racing game.... i don't remember the name. It was on Colecovision and had a blue and a red car, black screen with white lines as the track.. anyone know the name?

 

[hailtothekang]

Me too, I think I was 7 years old though, so that'd make it 73 for me.

I was so young I honestly couldnt tell you, but it was probably a very old arcade game, back in 1983.
