This really illustrates how young this site really is... and the reason for some of the comments on these boards.

But I digress...

First game ever played: Pac-Man when it was NEW in the arcade (1981)
First game ever owned: Combat on the Atari 2600 (1982)

The OP made me feel old, but this post just made me feel young again. Thank you sir.

 

OT:

I think it was some Olympics game for the NES. The one where you ran in place on a mat. Either that or Super Mario/Duck Hunt. 

No, problem! 

I will say that I am happy to have been around at the beginning (though not the birth unfortunately) of a new hobby... as well as the crash and Nintendo renaissance.

And, I believe the game you mean is "World Class Track Meet".  It was boxed along with SMB and DH on a 3 in 1 cartridge sold with the power pad NES.
