      Probably either Snafu or Astrosmash on the Intellivision. I believe Las Vegas Poker & Blackjack arrived at the same time but that game was lost on six year old me!

            It's over 30 years ago so a bit hard to remember.
            It definitely was one of the following:

            • Double dragon 2 for the NES at a friends house

            • California games on the Atari Lynx (LOVED that surfing mini game)

            • Paratrooper on DOS

              My father brought home an Atari 2600 and Space Invaders. My life has been on this path ever since.

              Growing older is mandatory. Growing up is optional!
              Enjoy the ride!

                    @dteam Not surprising there since the people who would most likely make a retro gaming machine for themselves are gen x and millenials.

                      @dteam if we're talking console it's Super Mario Bros on NES
                      If we're talking first game ever it'll be something on the Sinclair Spectrum ZX either Impossible Mission, Ghouls & Ghosts or maybe the text adventure the Hobbit. Yeah I'm old!

                        I agree, not everybody, but a lot of people are from the 70’s and beginning/mid of 80’s and I'm surprised to see this.

                        I agree with you, all generations do retrogaming. It's like music, what you have heard young stay with you all your life!
