I'm from 99 however my first console was actually the SNES for some reason, first games I played were the DKC trilogy, Super Mario Bros All Stars and I also remember a Football, Basketball and F1 game but not sure which one they were (not FIFA or NBA live tho). I also had a gameboy with a Super Mario Game and DKC 1.
I then got a PS2 when I was around 4-5 I think and my first game was Titeuf la mega compet.

I remember a set of arcade games in a small store 300 yards down the street from where I grew up. They had Ms.Pacman, Bubble Bobble, Aero Fighters 2, Samurai Shodown, and a racing game I to this day have no idea what it was. The images in my head of it are too vague.
However, there may have been something earlier. My father was a high school biology teacher when I was little and he had a couple Apple II machines in his room. The few times I visited him at work in those days I played some kind of explorer game on them. You played as an Indian Jones-like character wondering around these underground platform mazes. Retrospectively it looked a lot like Lode Runner. You could collect keys to open chests that were at the end of the stage. I just remember most of the environments were totally back with spider webs you had to avoid. Wish I knew the name of this game.

SMB/Duck Hunt/Track Meet, SMB2, Joust, Boulderdash, Super C, RC Pro Am, Monster Truck Rally, Super Mario World, Gradius III, Faceball 2000, Super Off Road, Sonic 2, Aladdin (Genesis version), Road Rash. Also remember Cross Country USA, Factory, Math Blaster, various others I can't name on Macintosh.

I've probably played something on the Atari 2600 before that, but my earliest and fondest memory is of playing Alex Kidd in Miracle World for the Master System.

One off the Tony Hawk games on N64

I remember playing aladin (idk what version) in a dentists office when i was like 6. my first actual game though i believe was Atlantis for the ps1 and Croc and Spyro. :) I can't remember any others at the moment.
-
Trying to think of first video games by system just for the heck of it.. I listed my first actual games, which was on NES, but I think it went...
SNES - Super Mario World
Genesis - Sonic The Hedgehog 2, Lion King
N64 - Super Mario 64, Pilotwings 64
PC - Command & Conquer, Warcraft 2
PS2 - Funny how it's harder to remember this era than the early ones, but I'm pretty sure it was 007 Agent Under Fire and Smugglers Run, mostly because the PS2 I got ended up ruining a James Bond game disk and Sony replaced it and I think it was that one.
GC - Animal Crossing
Xbox - Halo
And that's about all I'll do.

The first game I remember playing was Wizards & Warriors on NES. I remember being amazed at how I was able to control a little knight and do so much damage. This really kicked off video games for me!
-
frogger and pacman for the 2600 and pokemon yellow on handheld
-
Faint memories of playing Burgertime, Pac-Man, Q*Bert, and Frogger on my older sister's Atari 2600.
-
My first memories would be in no particular order.
Tetris/Dr. Mario/TMNT on Gameboy
Surround/Maze Craze on Atari 2600
-
Frogger.
-
The first games I remember playing... hmm....
I think it was Atari 2600 stuff. Stampede, Crystal Castles, Pac-Man, E.T., Missile Command, Baseball, and Football. I'm pretty sure those were some of my first games.
-
My dad used to go to a lot of sports bars when I was growing up and there was one in particular called No Frills Grill that had about 4 arcade cabinets/pinball machines. I remember at a really yoing age playing Elvira's Scared Stiff pinball and also Offroad. In terms of consoles, that would be the Sega Genesis and Sonic when I was about 5. Playing Sonic left such a lasting impression on me I actually ended up getting my own Genesis that same year for my birthday.
-
Probably the first game I ever played was arcade Space Invaders. Maybe Asteroids around the same time.
First home console game was most likely Combat, which came with my Atari 2600, but I don’t remember if we got more games when my dad bought the console.
-
Pac-Man 2: The New Adventure, and probably Sonic 1. These are the earliest memories I remember. I actually barely remember playing either, and I also barely remember the period that I had a Genesis, but I have very specific and narrow memories of these games, The first stage of Sonic of course, and a point in Pac-Man where you get slammed in a door that's opening.
The majority of my early memories are with the Playstation, games like Frogger, Blasto, and Crash Bandicoot.

The first game I ever remember fully playing was Super Mario 64 when I was 3 years old in 1999 :). My dad bought me an N64 for either christmas or my birthday that year with a few games. Smash went on to be a top 5 game of all time for me and one of the most nostalgic and sentimental titles I own and love :D.

One of my favorite games of all time. I’m dating myself, but I was 10 when it came out and I was hooked!

You’re dating yourself?
I just said my first was Space Invaders...and the cabinet was located by a Sears customer service counter, back when arcade games were found in all kinds of places, like restaurant waiting rooms. Now THAT’s dating yourself ;D
But, I bet someone here started back on the Magnavox Odyssey, or Pong, or maybe even Spacewar on an oscillator ;)

I read this post and I'm like okay now I don't feel so old. The first game I ever played and remember playing is Planet Patrol for the 2600. Now I'm feeling old.

Ha! you make a good point. I have to say, I remember seeing arcades in almost all pizza joints I would end up at when I was younger. Though the one that really stood out to me was Mortal Kombat. That cabinet was everywhere!

Possibly it was Pokémon Gold.
I remember I was a young age and I thought for some reason the reason Professor Elm calls you to say something bad happened was because he had a Muk in his lab (like in one episode of the Pokémon anime where Ash sends Professor Oak a Muk) rather than to report his Pokémon was stolen.
I laugh about it now. ;D
I would also play my older brother's Pokémon Red and Blue copies, and found a Pokémon Yellow cart for really cheap at a car boot sale (as would be expected for a car boot sale which is like a UK equivalent of a garage sale where you go somewhere, park your car and set up a stall to sell goods). I have kept it ever since.
I also found an unlicensed Pokémon Crystal game at a car boot sale many years ago. I don't know if it was the infamous "Viatnamese Crystal" but I sent it back because I personally don't like to keep bootlegs (though I don't mind too much about unlicensed software).
