I had to Google it but my oldest game is the NES version of Donkey Kong, I think. Google says '83. --- End quote --- Any of the original black box NES games would be your oldest as they were all launch titles released in 1985 in the US. Unless you have the Japanese Famicom version, which was released in 1983, then 1985 would be your oldest NES game. |

I want to say I still own the same three carts that came with our Atari 2600 (though the system and a bunch of the games we had are long gone) which were Combat, Gunslinger, and Speedway II. |

For me that would be Alex Kidd in Miracle World for the Sega Master System or Super Mario Bros. for the NES. |

If you exclude things like cards and board games and it had to be electronic... that would be my Sky Jump pinball machine from 1974. A full electro-mechanical pinball machine that probably did a number of years in a bar somewhere before finding its way to me somewhere around 1987. http://ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=2195 Portable game would be Blip by Tomy. which goes back to 1977. A mechanical pong like game that uses a series of gears and cams to move the ball and 3 buttons per player to act as the paddle. The only electronics in it is an LED that indicates the ball. Movement is powered by winding the timer and scoring is mechanically advanced when you guess wrong on where the ball will land. I picked it up in a thrift store in 1981 for like fifty cents... which was a major score for a kid my age back then. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blip_(game) For consoles I have the launch titles for the Atari VCS (1977), but they are not the copies I grew up with. that original heavy sixer and about 70-100 titles disappeared into a box when my parents recently moved so my current collection is starting from scratch a couple years ago. I do however have my original Magnavox Odyssey² (1978) although it was after the switch to built in controllers and the games, voice module, and they were bought starting around 1980. |
