A bunch of Oddysey2 games.  I also have a dedicated pong plug & play, pretty sure it predates the Oddysey2.

One of the Atari games that I still never played. I'm not sure which one.

Regarding ones that I played, it would probably be Final Fantasy Mystic Quest.

Tiger LCD Pinball 1987

I have this one. Wonky physics, and simple as hell, yet still fun in short-bursts. And that's a pretty big deal for a Tiger Electronics game, not too many of them are actually fun.

I own a single 2600 game, E.T.


I bought from a game store for like $2 when I first started collecting, and when I genuinely believed it was the worst video game ever made.

Mine would have to be Mario Bros. on NES.
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.

Mario Bros on Atari 2600 I think is my oldest since I don't own the NES version.

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.

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 I heard the connection it uses is so old and outdated, that you can't even play them anymore.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.
