Mario Kart 64



Hello World

Around the Network

There was this NES cartridge that had Super Mario Bros, Tetris and Soccer on it. Me and my brothers loved all three games.



Enduro (2600)



I would say Pokémon Blue. It was the first game I've ever played when my brother and I got the Game Boy Color.



Skyrim. But I only got into that because of the mash up pack in Minecraft... So uh. Y'all wanna say it again how "casual games" are dumb? Lol

Soccer and Super Mario Bros. on NES. I played on Atari and Commodore systems before. But Soccer and SMB both were so addictive so I think it was the beginning of my gaming hobby.



The earliest memory I have of gaming was getting my PS1 and playing Crash Bandicoot 3.



Probably E.T on Atari 2600. And no, it's not even close to being the worst game of all time.



Crash was my first game, and it pretty much went from there, but I think Melee on the GameCube is what really made wanna pursue into playing so many games.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I also don't know. It's so long ago and I was so young that I'm not sure how it all started. There's multiple for contenders for what my first ever game was, and there's also multiple for a question like your's.

Thinking about I would however lean a bit towards SimTower, as the game that gave the definitive push, but that had to have been years after I had already been casually playing games as a child.
