The first video games I ever played were SDI's Panzer Commander and Panzer General. A rarity even now, with both historical accuracy and good gameplay.

Edit: Can't forget Red Baron either. Getting cursed out by typing for ten minutes for using incendiary bullets still brings a smile to my face.

Probably Pong. I don't remember what the platform was called, but this would have to have been in the mid to late 70's before Atari came out with their home console.

We got pong/squash/breakout for XMas when I was about 8 or 9 back in the mid-70's. Shortly thereafter, my dad bought a "Black Apple ][+" (case made by HP). Then it was space invaders on a small color TV my dad put on its side so that my sister and I could play it like the arcade.

The first game I played was probably Sonic the Hedgehog or Super Mario Bros. I remember that we had a Mega Drive and a NES when I was a child. I don't remember playing them, but I do remember playing Super Metroid on the SNES, and getting upto Kraid... That might have been the first game I ever played.

If I had DOS first, it was that game where your a mouse and you push blocks around, eat cheese, and escape from cats and flying yarn balls lol... Forgot what its called though And Chips Challenge
If it was Super Nintendo Im pretty sure it was Donkey Kong Country..
