When you played a video game for the first time...

What age were you, and was that first game you played?

I've been playing video games from a very early age. When I played a video game for the first time, I was a mere 2 years old (seriously, no joke).

The first game I played was Super Mario Bros., but, of course, having the undeveloped brain I had at that age, I wasn't exactly great at it right away...

I was falling off of the bottom of the screen at first, not jumping over gaps when coming across them, but eventually I caught on.

So when did you first play a video game, and what was the first one you ever played?

I was about 6, and it was the Game & Watch Gallery for Game Boy Pocket. My Favorite mini game was the octopus treasure one...

[Fire Fox]

I was 6, and the game was Mega Man X.

I was probably 4 (or maybe even 3) when I played or saw my sisters playing Atari 2600 games, mainly Combat, Pac-Man, Super Breakout, and Video Olympics.

I figured I'd pretty much have to be the person here that played a video game for the first time at the earliest age.

Though I don't remember that far back, my father told me he was still pushing me in a stroller at the time!

Alive 18 years, a gamer for 16, I've been gaming much of my life, and have enjoyed it greatly, certain times more than others, mostly more recently as technology has advanced so much from when I was 2.

I forgot to mention that those games you 3 have mentioned are really good, non-random, and... what's the word... idk, the three of them are not only names of games but also of the game series they started. You guys are lucky
