I was 11 when I got my first 'Pong' console back in 1977. Can't remember what the make of the console was but those two little white bars and little square ball kept me mesmerised for minutes. Then I got bored and went back to playing Space Invaders in the local arcade.

I really can't remember, probably about 5 or 6.
Got home from the park and my dad had got a NES set up in the living room.

It did rather rock the socks.

I went round to my next door neighbours and played on HER NES. Mario, Zelda, Duck Hunt - everything...

Oh, hold on... in fact...

.. before that I played Saracen on her Spectrum. You had to collect stuff and fire arrows? Fun that... in colour and everything.

Then I stole a pack of Malteasers from her bedroom and her father jokingly said I should be arrested after my Mum stressed how bad theft was. I was in tears and the friendship between her and me and my brethren deteriorated. She was older and got old and worried about 'cool'..

Good times, though.... Saracen, etc.

i think i was about 4 or 5 and i was that young my dad could kick my ass on sonic and my mum had to do the up down left right A C B C start cheat for me lol

First console I got was one of the SEGA consoles, I cant remember which one though.

The first game I played was Bart Simpson's Nightmares or something, I remember being really scared of it. :P

NES, at my childminders house, after primary school.

Her eldest son very rarely let me play Super Mario Bros 1 & 2 and Duck Hunt.

Ahhhhh...

When i was 5, used to play on my uncle's Amiga 500 and also my friend had a commodore 64 and spectrum.

Now those were the days :-D

Sonic on the Megadrive whenever it came out, 1990 i think so i was 8. Second game i played was some F1 game as my did is a huge fan.
