    Either The Simpsons (1991) in a restaurant or Top Gun (1987) at someone’s house. Can’t remember the exact order.

    If we are talking about my own games it was either sim city 2000 or Hey You Pikachu! On the N64 but prior to that ive played bouts of mario kart on the SNES or the very early Microsoft Flight Simulator at other peoples houses.

    We had an Apple computer in the late 80s/early 90s though I couldn’t tell you which one. I vaguely remember playing a game involving bear astronauts catching falling apples in baskets but have never been able to figure out what it was.

    I don’t remember what it was called, it was a police and robber kind of game. It was a 2d platformer where you (a stick figure robber) had to run from stick figure police men. All you can do is dig a hole where the chasers fall in and then run back over them. It was pretty simple but fun.

    I don’t actually remember if this is the first video game I ever played, but two of the first was Myst and The Gene Machine, and I mostly treated them as activity centers

    Combat (1977) for the Atari 2600. Tbf it was some time in the early eighties, not straight after release when “that kid on the road that had everything” finally also got a console.

    Probably one of the simple home Atari machines - a Breakout game with a couple other “games”, like “basketball”. Although my only memories of playing it were later.

    Combat for the 2600 is probably the first one I actually remember playing. Actually, might be Adventure.

    The earliest ones I remember well - like, my earliest strong memories of playing - are C64 games like Miner 2049er, Jumpman, Repton, Space Taxi.

    Then remember a wholllle lot of shit for the rest of the early-mid 80s while I was still pretty young :)

    My kid is now a big fan of pretty much all those games. I’m surprised how many. (And surprised about a few he isn’t)
