Streets of rage......... Fantastic, the daddy of side scrolling beat em ups

Streets of rage 2's music was one of the best of the 16 bit era, truly memorable

Grandpa had an NES. with SMB/DH
The rest is history.

 heck yeah dude link to the past was my first game. i remember watching my step mom play it and showing me the ropes. it was an awesome experience. after that i just kept playing, going with the flow. played every system and loved each one.

I remember my first incident with video games and it was of course mario. i just remember the demo of the first level. I didn't know what "start" was so i could never get mario past a certain part of the game (i forget does mario die or does the demo end) asked my dad for help but he didn't know what to do either. i think i gave up after a while....

funny, not a very happy story but i kept playing...i wonder if i could talk much back then...surely couldn't read.

Teenage mutant hero turtles NES. I love the animation, but the game is too hard for a human being, I still don't beat the game :((

My brothers atari. Space invaders was awesome.

Actually i really dont know parents just bought Snes after that been playing since then.
