Wing Commander. Ah, for the days when it was a struggle just to free up enough memory to play that game. Nowadays, I have to jack in to Dos Box to ratchet down the horsepower on my system.

If I recall correctly, it was Commander Keen for DOS. I wasn't very good at it.

Edit: Oh, wait, there was some arcade shooter I wasn't even tall enough to see. I think it had Aerosmith in it.
T'would be this.

OT: I think Mario Paint. Can't remember.

Yeah, I think that's the one. Like I said, I was too short to actually see the screen, so I'm not sure.

I remember getting a used NES system for Christmas in 1989. I can't recall what game I played first, but I imagine it was Super Mario Brothers.

I think I was three or four when I played my first video game,
If I'm correct it was Ocarina of Time, it still is my favorite game of all time.

The earliest game I remember playing was Duck Hunt in 1990 (when I was 4 years old). It came with the NES my parents got for my older brother. I was actually pretty good at it, but I don't remember for sure. I could have just been using the "hold the light gun up to the screen" trick.

I believe it was Mario Bros/Duckhunt on the NES, although I might have played a few games on a Macintosh at my Grandfather's workplace before then, such as Loderunner, but I can't quite recall which one I played first. I'm thinking Mario Brothers.

That I can recall, It was roughly 83, or 84, and it would be either Kaboom! or Berzerk but honestly was too young to recall which.
