My friend's Dad "busting/beating" Pac-Man.
Spending all my allowance at one time on $5 Atari 2600 games.
Sitting with my face 1-2 feet away from my parent's old console TV (wood trim ftw) playing Berzerk on the 2600 for hours on end.
My dad was curious about the Atari 2600 so he took the family to Toys R Us to check it out. We came home with it that night and he and I played Pole Position until my bed time.
Playing Galaxian in a laundromat circa 1980.
Getting NES for Christmas
<---noob.
I saw Pong when I was a kid.... My first game I played is Space Invaders. My parents actually took a picture of me and my brother playing it.
I don't remember getting NES since I was only 1 1/2 when my parents got it. So my first real gaming memory is the first time I played Super Mario Bros. when I was somewhere around 3.
My favorite gaming memory from my youth though is getting a Turbografix 16 from Toy R' Us, and playing Splatterhouse for the first time ever. That was totally the hot shit.
Atari 2600, I remember getting Dig Dug and thinking it was the shit.
Toys R' Us kicked ass back then.
My deceased Father and Sister playing Pong. First game I played was My Mother and I competeing in Pac Man. Then right after that playing Space Invaders and Pitfall.
