I was maybe 7 or 8 but I recall playing Donkey Kong on the Intellivision at a friend's house. I hadn't played many arcade games up to that point but I knew what a joystick was. I had NO idea how to move Mario using the Intellivision circular pad so I was horrible at it. Just figured video games weren't my thing until around 1986 when I discovered a Mario Bros cabinet at a local supermarket and began playing that with friends non-stop. Dumped so many quarters into that machine. Then the Nintendo Play Choice 10 showed up at the local bowling alley and I began playing Super Mario Bros....and that is where my true love for video gaming began. Received the NES bundled with SMB for Christmas in 1987 & the rest is history. |

The first game that really made me fall in love with gaming, though, was Super Mario Bros. on NES. I could play that game for hours on end. --- End quote --- Same here burningdoom.....SMB was the catalyst for all of my future video gaming obsessions. |

For good or for ill, video games became a huge part of my life and this was the spark that started it all. Very few memories are as vivid. My first time seeing Dragon's Lair, the day the space shuttle Challenger exploded, the day I met the cute girl who later would become my wife, the day I married that amazing woman and maybe one or two other events. This was by far the earliest of them though (I was 3 maybe 4 years old) |
