Pong.
Combat on Atari 2600.
Here I thought I was ancient because it was combat. Seems like there are many of us old farts around here.
Same here. Either that or Missile Command, I got both at the same time and I just don’t exactly remember for sure.
The Super Mario Bros /Duck Hunt cartridge.
Pong
Tank wars - MS DOS
Probably closely followed by Lemmings, Commander Keen & Duke Nukem.Oh man, your comment made me remember my first game that was just like tank wars. I always called it banana wars because you were 2 apes that threw bananas at each other.
Just found it… “QBasic - gorrilas” https://www.retrogames.cz/play_654-DOS.php. So many memories playing this against my dad, punching a hole straight through some buildings at high velocity because he could never figure out how to do adjust his angle and velocity to account for the shifting wind speeds.
Yup it came as a demo when they shipped Qbasic with DOS 3.5 I think…
The first game I ever modified.
It was a top down sports game. You were in a sports arena with your racquet…
Ok, it was pong.
Pong, probably around 1983-ish.
Pong on some device in the late 70s. So that might not count.
Oregon Trail on a computer store Apple ][.
Finally Wizardry I on my own Apple ][+. Early 1982 iirc.
Was pong on the Telstar, along with Tennis and i think two more similar super basic games? That’s what we had
Sounds vaguely familiar. I think it was more than just pong.
Pong CERTAINLY counts, probably an intellivison. Were the controllers long and light tan?
It’s been so long. I honestly don’t remember :(
Combat on Atari 2600. It was the game that came with the system.
In general? Old ass pacman at a bowling alley when I was like 5 or 6.
Personal game that I actually spent time with? Pokemon Red on the original, very very old Gameboy. Like the grey one, before the gameboy color.
Konami Made TMNT handheld game, came out around the same time as the first movie. Wish I could remember the title.

Found it. Nostalgia.
Holy smokes, I forgot all about that thing! Seeing a picture of it brought out some ancient archived memories
I had that one! It was amazing for the day. Compared to modern handhelds tho…
Same package was also used for the Dragon Quest handheld but that wasn’t as good.
It would either be Golden Axe or Space Cadet Pinball.
Castlevania on the Game Boy i think. 1989
Considering it’s technical limitations the game boy had some amazing games. Gargoyles Quest games were amazing
Pong
