    I've been playing games since before the first Atari came out, that should give you some idea  :P

      Was there ever a way to avoid him? I always remember getting so far into the game that he just pops up and eats you faster than you could possibly do anything.

          My first game was Pong some...30 years ago?  Wow.  Played a lot of Pac Man on those table top things that used to be in bars back then too.  Starting to feel pretty old.

          I don't have any memories of the first game I played, but the first one I owned was Super Mario World on the SNES. I had that game so long that the battery died. Wouldn't keep my saves unless I played it (or at least put it in the console and turned it on) at least once every three days.

          Now that I have it as a ROM, however, I can apply IPS patches and play all new versions of the game! ahhhh youth revisited.
          I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

              I can't remember. The first games I vividly remembering playing were on the N64 but I know I'd played games at a cousins house. First games for the N64 were Mario 64, and Wave Race, which was a game about Jet ski racing? Great fun.

                       Radio Shack had a very basic game of "PING PONG"...........it was black and white and yes used the TV........it was the very 1st game i had ever electronically played !
                           Then of course........ATARI and "Pac Man".
