What is the oldest game in your collection?

[Mr Pantomime]

Crash Bandicoot

 

[King of the Sandbox]

Pong. Definately Pong. It doesn't work anymore though, but I still have it.

I also have a pretty rad collection of Collec-O-Vision, Atari and NES games. I've even got a few floppies with stuff like ZORK and Commander Keen on them around here somewhere from waaaaaaaaay back in my elementary school days...

 

[SalamanderJoe]

Someone has already said it on this page but Crash Bandicoot on the PS1. I still haven't beaten it.

 

[ImmortalDrifter]

Commander Keen for windows 95. Best game ever.

 

[FallenRainbows]

Pong, yes the original plug into the TV thing.

 

[elcamino41383]

I have an Atari 2600 laying around somewhere with a rather large bin of games to go with it. I think they range from Pong to E.T. (Yes I own that abomination)

 

[babinro]

Star Tropics for NES complete with map that needed water to tell you a password to complete the game.

Never held on to the Atari games, which would have been the earliest I owned at some point in time. I remember River Raid...but I don't know if that would have been the first game or not.

 

[Deadlock Radium]

Nintendo consoles n' such: Pokemon Red
PS2: Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy and Colin McRae Rally 3 (Best rally game EVER)
PC: Counter-Strike Source.

 

[Gabanuka]

Oldest game by year the year of realease is the first Zelda game on the NES. Oldest by when i brought it and how long I've owned it would be Pokemon Sapphire on the GBA. It would be Metroid Fusion but thats lost untill I hunt down a new GBA and a copy of it.

 

[jigilojoe]

I have Monopoly from the 1950's, whether that counts is up for discussion

Otherwise, DDND Crossfire or Medieval.

 

[GeneWard]

Duke Nukem- original 2d game

 

[OdyCay]

Elder scrolls 1: ARENA thats my oldest

[Oioptyoip]

Philips G7000: Race, Spin out, Cryptogram.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_-_Spin-out_-_Cryptogram_(Videopac_game)

I think I win because I have the game and the console still

 

[V TheSystem V]

Pokemon Silver. Can't beat it.

 

[Declaro]

Myst. It's only a year younger than me. My dad used to play it while I sat next to him, transfixed.

I may also have a copy of LoZ: Link's Awakening somewhere.

 

[Daniel Laeben-Rosen]

Master of Magic which unfortunately I've never been able to get to work with DOSBox. Still hanging onto it though!

You've probably heard this by now, but you can find that game at GoG.com for $6, or well... just below. Incase you feel like getting it to run without DOSbox.

I actually have that game somewhere too, damn fine game.

Let's see... oldest game I have...
I have a number of NES-games, I'm not sure which is oldest so I'm just gonna say... Super Mario Bros.
I'm not at home right now so I can't double-check, and I don't have them all in my head since... well I have like 40-odd games.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

Well in the sense that it's the first game I remember my Dad owning then I'd say MGS. I'm sure we both completed that game about 50 times in total, always trying to save Meryl. It was only recently, about a year ago, that I actually figured out how to do it. Man, that was one of the longest challenges ever.

EDIT: It was actually probably a pack of SEGA games for the Genesis. It had Sonic, Monaco GP, Streets of Rage and Shinobi. These games were the ones that shot me into gaming at a young age. There we go, bonus points for it being made before I was born.

 

[googleback]

oldest physical copy of a game... probably heart of darkeness for the ps1 I dont tend to keep older games unless they're important to me.
