Dad owned a Pong unit.  Just the console itself with round knobs and wood trim.  It was 3-4x bigger than the Xbox.  Was the official name for the system Colecovision?  I can\'t believe I forgot...

Well Pong, and Atari.  I loved playing Pole Position!!

Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt man.  Two of the greatest games of all time.  I have myself on tape of me opening my first nintendo.  Actually...I think it might have been my first orgasm.

Space Invaders, followed soon after by Pac-Mac, Donkey kong, Asteroids, Star Castle and a few other Arcade machines of the late 70\'s early 80\'s

Pong was alwyas there but never really fascinated me

Arcades...

I remember going there for ski ball and whatever.. Then I crossed over to the part with the TV screens.. And BAM! I was hooked forever. :)

Atari got me addicted. I can hardly remember the games that I played but they were great. If I only still had an atari.

Mario and one of my best...Elevator Action.  It is a pitty that kids these days, looking at 10 and younger, do not see those games.  They have no concept of where graphics started and what it looked like years ago.  That is why we appreciate the games of today.  Gone are the bright colours and in with visual art!

A game didn\'t really get me into gaming. I would say the Amstrad CPC464 got me into gaming.
