gamin Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 My God ! Reading this topic, I've been able to find a picture of the first video game console I've ever had in my hands and played with. It was Pong and some other games like Soccer (look the same as Pong, but with 4 lines to catch the ball instead of 2), and other games I can't even remember. Was in the 70s... Feeling old... But thanks to my dad who was already aware of all that in those years, and who put a ZX81 in my hands while I was 10 (guess how old I am now ) and gave me the "virus". 35 years later, I'm working in computers...

badflame Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Well, I do not know if this can be considered a video game, but before having the AMSTRAD played with this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panja Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 That must be either Pac-Man or Prince of Persia on a monochrome "portable" pc back in '89. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallex Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Superhard to remember, but i believe it was an early game boy game. Perhaps it was Tetris? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnty1976 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 If it counts my very first would be the Game and Watch called Parachute. But a true video game would be Christmas 1984 when I got my Atari 2600 with Dragonfire, Robot Tank and Space Invaders. I cant remember which one I played first....

phulshof Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Well, I do not know if this can be considered a video game, but before having the AMSTRAD played with this: I had the same one. 😎 I remember it required dying to get the high score at 999, because it was counting double points if you did not die for a while. Without dying the high score would be 998. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axentryl Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I think my first pc game was Prince of Persia from 1989. You guys have no idea how long it takes a three year old to get to level 2 of that area, or the joy you feel when you finally kill that jerk guarding the exit. No one will mourn you, you meanie!! My first console game was sonic the hedgehog for the mega drive. Good times!! I almost feel a little bad never really experiencing gaming on atari, like it seems so many people here did. I feel like maybe i missed out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
