So escapists, what is the oldest game you own a PHYSICAL copy of ?

[ubersyanyde]

Sonic 3D Flickies' Island for PC. It was released '97 and the PC/Saturn versions still have some of the best game music ever.

Geez, I've got a ton of ancient games... So You Want To Be A Hero (Quest for Glory 1) on 5.25" floppies, QfG 2 - 4 on 3.5" disk, The entire Leisure Suit Larry collection on a cd, Sim City on 3.5s, X-Com on 3.5s, Every SSI/TSR Advanced Dungeon and Dragons games on 5.25 & 3.5" floppy... I still have a working 486 dx2-66 with 12mb ram, a 100mb hdd, 4x cd burner and 8bit soundblaster to play 'em on too.

Lemmings, DOS, on floppy disk

 

[NerdElf]

Well, I've got a cd of the Gamecube port of Ocarina of Time. Besides that, I've got 2 CD's filled with pirated games from the late 80's to the late 90's.
I think I've got a floppy disk of some game, or maybe it was one of the install floppies of Windows 3.1, but it's been lost in the depths of my boxes filled with old stuff.

Just dusted off the original Rainbow Six

 

[Skoldpadda]

An old chess set, which my great great great great great great great great great grandfather made from the bones of my great great great great great great great great great grandmother.

Apart from that, Super Mario All Stars, and Zelda: a Link to the Past, both for SNES, but I'm not sure which one's older.

 

[Broady Brio]

Sonic The Hedgehog on Sega Master System.

However, this wasn't the first game I played. That title belongs to Tekken. Or perhaps Wipeout. Most likely Tekken.

 

[michiehoward]

I got a FF1 for NES kicking around somewhere. Other then that, most of my oldest games have been lost to crappy packing for moves in the 80's and 90's by my parents.

 

[TheOneMavado]

That would probably be one of the cartridges for my Fairchild Channel F, possibly Space War.

 

[Dr_Roxo24]

Either Deus Ex or MDK 2 i cant remember which is older, but i think those are my oldest games

 

[Dahni]

Elder Scrolls: Arena. Technically, it was my uncles game but he's a weird guy and decided to give it to me on my 1st birthday...

 

[Justanothergamer300]

[Dracon Steel]

oldest game i own is Super Mario Bros./ Duck Hunt for my NES, Super Mario World for my SNES, Tetris for my Game Boy, Mario 64 for my 64, Diablo for my pc, for my Playstation i think its FFVII or Mega Man X4 both came out the same year, my PS2 Its probably Zone of the Enders, Game Cube Eternal Darkness, PS3 Metal Gear Solid 4

 

[Talshere]

[karloss01]

a mix of mega drive and PC games dating around 1990-1994. sonic 1 to 3 & knuckles and Doom 1 + 2 and the master levels pack (got the dephs of doom trilogy set, got the discs and manual but the box is lost).

 

[Levethian]

Oldest box I've retained is 'Might & Magic: World of Xeen'.

 

[CulixCupric]
