The first home video game we had was this portable Pac Man game we got for christmas one year. Was about a year or so before the big wave of atari. Also played pong but we somehow got an old pong game around the time of atari.

The first system I actually got as a gift was the original gameboy, followed by Super Nintendo. ALTHOUGH I did have an Atari 2600, and played it for a long time till i ran the joysticks into the ground.

I was entered the game world in 1987 when I was 2 years old. I played Kid Icarus at my uncle's house because he had a nintendo and was enthralled. My parents got me a system, and I picked it up incredibly fast. I beat mario 1 before I was three years old, people said I was a prodigy. All I did from the ages of 2 - 15 was console game. Good times.
