What was your first ever videogame?

View all responses

I’ve never really been interested in video games. Having said that, the first game system my brothers and I had as kids was the Nintendo 64 and we had the Super Mario video game as well as others which incorporated that character such as Paper Mario and Super Smash Bros ETC. However, I never played it myself. I used to just watch as my brothers used to fight when one used to beat the other on the levels during the game. They would accuse each other of cheating and not playing right ETC and this got on my mother’s nerves to the point where she always threatened to turn the game off if the fighting didn’t stop and I think she even warned that she would return the game to the store if they played too loudly or continued to argue especially if this escalated to minor violence which it did on some occasions.
