    Default What was the first game you ever played?

    Actually, I'm going to divide this up into two categories.

    PC: Treasure Cove (Learning Company) my parents bought it for me, mostly because I was slow learning to read.

    Console: Super Mario Bros. (NES) This was at a friend's house (I didn't actually get a console of my own till grade 4 or so).

    PC: I think the first game I played was Shufflepuck Café on my black and white macintosh.

    There was another game that I used to play on it, but I can't remember the name of it for the life of me.
    If anyone can tell me what it is I'd be so grateful, from what I remember, it was like a platformer where you play a small character having to navigate in this castle with all these bats that attack you.

    Console: The first Megaman on the NES. My older brothers had a nintendo for a while when I was like 4 or 5, but it got taken away and my parents never allowed us to have consoles ever since then until I got a PS1 in secret and pretended it was a DVD player.

    First game I ever played was on the old Gameboy.
    It was called Tumble Pop. Here's a screen.

    The first computer game I played was either Dark Castle or Reader Rabbit, on the old Mac Plus and Mac LCII.

    I think the first console game I played was Super Mario World, at a friend's house.

    I love you! You answered my question without meaning to, now I need to find somewhere that I can play Dark Castle again.
    I'd give you +Rep, but for some reason you don't have that option.

    If you switch to the brown skin, you can rep mods, actually.

    Honestly I don't remember...

    I know it was either Captain Comic for DOS or Cosmo. Or Crystal Caves.



    System though...maybe Hogans Alley or Duckhunt/Mario combo. Hard to say, because I got my NES as a package with a BUNCH of games (er, my MOM got it that is)
