My first that we owned was the good ole SNES, but I feel like I remember playing duck hunt on the NES. I just can’t fully remember if that was before or after we got our SNES.


I played my cousins Atari growing up a lot though too.

We had a Pong console when I lived in Dubai in the 70s. Upgraded to an Atari when we moved back to the States.

Ps1.

Crash bandicoot and this top down military shooter where you got to play as a Jeep, a tank, and a helicopter. Can’t remember for the life of me what it was called but it was a fun af game

Just looked it up, return fire.

My bad, didn’t realize this was a 16 bit circle jerk

I know my family had a Coleco, but I can't say I really remember playing.

First real video game memories is playing NES at my Paw-Paw's house.

First home game I remember playing was Pong. First I owned was Nintendo.

But heck, I'm so old I remember when you had to go an arcade or bowling area to play video games. Actually, I remember even further back than that when their was only pinball, then they started working in the video games.

Any of you Greater New Orleans area baws remember the old Fun Arcade on the eastern part of Veterans in Metairie?



The old Money Hill campground also had a pretty great game room, but I haven't found any pictures of it.
