    The first game I can REMEMBER playing is Atlantis on the 2600. But I can remember my dad taking me to an arcade to show me this cool new game called "Donkey Kong"

    Wrong way round but after playing RF:Online, LOTRO, Runescape and many other MMORPG's I finally played World of Warcraft today. Normally it's the other way round. I can see why people like it, it's a fun game.

    Kirby's Adventure or Mario 3 for the NES. Originally, people would just give me an unplugged NES controller and I thought that I was moving him around, haha.

    Galaxian and Death Star Interceptor on the Spectrum are amongst my earliest memories. There may have been games before that but I don't remember.

    Good times.

    Well, I grew up playing pinball machines. My first arcade game was either Space Invaders or Laser Zap, can't remember. The first home system was Sears brand of PONG, then after that it was Target Fun on the 2600.

    One of the first games i remember playing was Lemmings on the Amiga.

    May have been others but can't quite remember that far back.

    Macross on the NES was ultra common for most of us, yes! It was one of the staples of pirate multicarts.

    Brings back neat memories, that's for certain.
