The first time I played a computer game was around 1988. I can’t remember which came first for me; it was either a "Space Invaders" clone (don't know the title) for Amiga that a girl in my elementary school class had, or "River Patrol" for C64 (the only game for C64 I liked).

I'm not sure but I know it was either Super Mario Bros, Kid Icarus or Battletoads, because my neighbour had those games and that's the first place I ever played a video game.

Mine was Pokemon Pearl. I got it for Christmas in 2007, and it was my first, exciting step into the world of video games. I chose Piplup, and it is still one of my favourites to this day.

Magnavox Odyssey 3000 tennis. Actually it may have been squash, there were five games on the system (if you can call minor variations on Pong separate games). I probably monopolized the family television with that thing.

Super Mario World or Mega Man X, not sure which one was first. I was around three or four when I played these.

Video games: Probably Pong or a primitive 1970s racing game (looping track), but I can't remember which was first. I remember playing Killer Shark in 1977-78 at an arcade, but that does not technically count as a real video game.

As for video gaming systems: My PITA cousins had an Magnavox Odyssey I system (circa 1972) that they played a version of pong on, but I hardly got to play on it back then. They threw it away when Atari 2600 came out and took over the market. I eventually bought an Atari to play with around 1980 or so. (I still have it.) A few years ago, I lucked into a complete Odyssey II system (circa 1978) still in the original box (with the games) for my collection...

Interesting one here: Banjo-Kazooie while I was in the hospital for a critical staph infection at age 5. It was totally worth being introduced to video-games.

The hospital had an N64?

Wow why can't I ever go to these kind of hospitals? I did play the Wii once at a hospital but thats it, I normally don't see consoles in that setting.

Super Mario Bros when I was three and if I remember right the first Zelda when I was four. I beat Zelda at such a young age I must of been a master at it because going back now playing it I find i way too complicated

You're most likely going to run into a hospital they can play old GameCube games yeah some hospitals had some video games I noticed when I was an adult and would of loved them as a kid.
