What made you start playing games?

Two words: Nintendo 64.

It was actually my brothers' gift but since I was just a year older than them, I was kinda close to them so I got into whatever they got into. I remember playing Pokemon Stadium for hours on end.

It was actually before that my sisters got a Jaguar and a Sega Genesis but the only good game I remember playing was Sonic the Hedgehog. But again, it was the N64 that really pulled me in. I started playing seriously (aka, without my brothers' consent) when Kingdom Hearts came out.

 

My mom and dad got me hooked on games from the early days, back when the super Nintendo and Sega Genesis were out. Back then my brother and I went head to head in about every game.

 

I started with Super Smash Brothers on the N64! One of the best video games ever.
That and Pokemon Blue.

 

Tales of Symphonia, my friend. Got so addicted by playing his games, I soon played other games with my other friend, got a console, and here I am.

 

i started playing games when i was little on a dreamcast. the first game i ever played was mario on a demo disc that had a shiz load of games.

 

That was the first game character that I loved, he used be the awsome little dragon with a kick-ass personality, but now the games suck

 

I started with my brother's Mega Drive. The first games I played were Sonic 1, 2, 3 & Knuckles and Street Fighter II. I remember that Street Fighter II was too difficult for me, so I used the second controller to beat all the fighters and spent the whole afternoon trying to beat Vega (Japanese name, the dictator in red outfit), I liked to watch the endings even though I couldn't understand them because I didn't know English at the time.

 

I started playing video games when I first played Mario Brothers for NES when I was 4 back in 1991.

 

You got Kingdom Hearts for Christmas, was it the same year that it came out or not, because I got it for Christmas from my dead grandpa, he died two years ago.......

 

my first EVER video game... was Donkey Kong 64. Best. Old-School Game. Ever. I got it when I was like 5 or 6 and I still have my N64 and DK64, I'm 15 now.

 

We used to own both a Commodore n' Amstrad when i was really wee, played that a few times, but i never understodd what i was doin'. xD Then we bought a SNES n' Megadrive. I still prefer to play the original Sonic games n' others from the same era than a lot made today. But it probably wouldn't have been till Zelda OoT came out that i began to look into games n' purchasin' 'em for myself. It was love at first sight! <3

 

When I was little, I always loved to watch my cousins play PS2.
They were a few years younger than me.
I didn't dare to try it myself, afraid that I would screw up ;___;

But then, there came the magical day when I tried...Like Star wars battlefront II or something <_<*

It didn't take long until I refused to let my poor little cousins play their precious PS2.
It was mine...! *_*

That concludes our story .__.

 

My dad has always loved video games, and so he used to play games with me like Mario Kart and Zelda (well, he would play usually, and I would watch, because I was too afraid of the spiders to actually get anywhere in my game) on the N64. I don't remember when I started playing video games... I don't even remember learning how to play! I must have been really little when I started playing if I don't even remember learning...

 

when we first got the ps2, my dad used to be addicted to it and then we got the first rayman game for ps2, and i wouldn't play it because of the witch doctor dude.... and i wouldn't go near the game after that...... great game...:)

 

Hahaha a lot of us seem to have started playing because of our dads... Did anyone start because their mom liked to play???

 

i didn't learn to play games from my mom but she used to play the Gex the Gecko for ps1 and she used to play around us.... she doesn't like to play games anymore... :)

 

Haha my mom never really liked to play games... she's the kind of person who actually moves the controller like a steering wheel when playing Mario Kart (not the Wii version, the N64 version... she might actually be good at the Wii version haha). But we did find one game she liked once. It was that game Bust-a-Move for the Gamecube. That was a fun game...

 

hahahaha...i've never played that before.... but my mom used to like castlevania: Symphony of the night, but she just likes to watch it now..... so i let her try Castlevania: order of ecclesia and portrait of ruin and she won't put them down... :D

 

Lol, it's a good game. It's like basically a home version of that arcade game where you shoot the bubbles to try and get three or more of the same color to touch so they'll pop.

I think my mom's problem is that she just doesn't understand technology... It took me forever to teach her how to use her laptop. And the remote.

 

:'D Just having a Sega and N64 at such a young age. xD
And then the fact that my dad is obsessed with technology. >>; ​
