We all have been gamers for so long right, but where did it REALLY start?

I was like 5 or 6 and my brother used to have a turbo grafix (I think that's what it was called)

He played splatter house all the time which scared the living shit out of me.

I think it was Super Mario Bros. 3 that turned me into a gaming monster. I was never able to play when my brother had his high school friend over and they would play for hours, but I drooled every second I watched.  And boy when I finally got my hands on that game I felt like I was in heaven.

When I moved over seas ( I was like 8) I took my SNES with me. It broke down a couple months later. Unfortunately for me, no one fixed SNESs where I lived. I went for like 3 years without gaming. In 1997 my dad sent me a gift, a PlayStation. It destroyed my life.

That original PS is still at my granfather's house with a library of at least 80 games. If I ever go back to the Middle East, I'm taking them back!

Thank you for reading my life story.

A Turbografx in the middle east?

Was it, like, the ONLY one?
