What Is Everyone's First Game and System?
I find it so interesting how strong of friendships and communal bonds can be made from playing games with friends and strangers alike. I was wondering where everyone's origins came from in terms of gaming. For me, my first game was Altered Beast on the Sega Master system. My dad picked this up for me in the 80s when I was only 4. We kicked ass together and it was pretty graphic for a 4 year old to play. Punching and kicking zombies and beasts that exploded into pieces lol It was rereleased on the Sega Genesis (which I still own). It's still a lot of fun to play today too.
So what is everyone's story here?

I had an Atari 2600 in the house, but my elder half-siblings played it more than I did. I can't remember if the SMS or the NES was the first system I really [i]mine[/i]. I remember that I had a SMS at home and there was a NES at my grandma's house. My friends always gave me crap for having a SMS. Honestly I think the SMS was a better console, but most of the games were pretty lame. Being born in the '70s and growing up in the '80s, I was initially more interested in physical toys than video games until I was about 10 or so. That and dirt, dirt was freaking awesome. It was everywhere and free.
