I was about five years old when my brother and I got our granddad's NES system along with lots of games! First game I played was probably Super Mario Bros., but it really could have been any of them.
As for your hypothesis, yeah sure. Early exposure is probably common among gamers. I wouldn't say there are no lifelong gamers who were exposed to video games later in their lifetimes though, because there evidently are a few of those.
