I would like to venture into older games eventually but not having grown up with them makes it difficult to play them. There is no nostalgia effect.

That's kind of how I feel about modern gaming - reversed. The joy I experienced with retro gaming of my youth can't be reproduced when I play modern consoles now as a middle aged adult. So in a different way I'm not "growing up" with current gen and previous gen console gaming so I've basically just stopped playing 6th-8th gen games and stick to second-fifth gen stuff.

The games for the Magnavox Odyssey 1.
The first game console ever made in 1972, can't get much older then this. lol ::)
You have to put plastic sheets on the TV screen to get graphics. lol

What if I had a PDP computer with Computer Space on it?

...I don't, but that is one thing that could be older.

Still, that's pretty freaking awesome. Are you able to hook it up? I heard the connection it uses is so old and outdated, that you can't even play them anymore.

I don't have any consoles older than NES because I'm a scrub.

I had to Google it but my oldest game is the NES version of Donkey Kong, I think. Google says '83.

I don't own any Atari 2600 stuff any more, so it's one of my Game & Watches. According to the release dates on Wikipedia, Donkey Kong is the oldest one I have.
