It's hard to top 1-1 in Super Mario Bros; the way it organically teaches you how to play is just genius.

I'll throw in both RE4's intro and village battle and the frigate Orpheon in Metroid Prime for how brilliantly they set the tone and mechanical fundamentals for their respective games, while instantly hooking the player.
