I don't like many pre-NES games because they've all been done better since, and because I wasn't around for them, there is no nostalgia effect. I still appreciate older games for what they've done though

Had a Atari 2600. I remember playing pitfall and Dig Dug the most. Anyone remember the name of the game with all of those tank/airplane games on it? I think pong was on there too. I remember Super Mario Bros. when it was new too. Played the hell out of that. Remember when The Wizard came out just before SMB 3? I wanted to see it just to see SMB 3 early. I loved that movie (I also remember thee article in Nintendo Power about it).

The first game I remember playing was an arcade shooter of some sort (I want to say Space Invaders, or some such) when I was three or four. My Dad co-owned a vending business with his brothers, and to keep me busy he'd open up one of the cabs and pump up the credit button.

First console was an Atari VCS (the original name for the 2600 from about 1978 to 1982, if I'm not mistaken).

18, my first major gaming experience was Pole Position on the Atari 2600 with the trackball. Heaven on Earth my friends, heaven on Earth. I also have fond memories of E.T., I realized crap when I saw it, even then.

15 and I'll be 16 in 7 days.

My earliest gaming memories come from long hours playing my cousin's baby-sized NES collection consisting of Contra, RC Pro Am, Double Dribble, and Mario Bros/Duck Hunt. Also beating the shit out of much older people in Street Fighter 2 at the arcades and playing TMNT at the super old school (Ok maybe not that old school ) Showbiz Pizza (AKA Chuck E Cheeze) comes to mind.......
