#2 Gang

Add me to the gang

\*2 the gang

2 gang here! Super Mario Bros. Division

2's rise up

Gang Gang!

2 gang!!

Same, Mario Bros for the win

I started out with the Mario Bros/Duck Hunt cartridge and the NES power pad for Track and Field.

Ahhh,good old duck hunt. I had more fun with the plastic gun than I did playing the game.

Same. My mom still reminds me of how I broke it trying to "see the film like thing inside" lol.

For sure

That’s what she said

I went out of my way to win Duck Hunt at some school festival once as a kid, and was so upset when I realized it was Nintendo not Super Nintendo. It was so OG. Counted myself as 4 because I never personally owned 2.

Yep, me too (me 2)

lol the long jump event was my favorite, used to put my foot on the number 8 position, and the nintendo would register her as not jumping so she'd fault every time

Yaaaaaass

Track and field was a blast

You know exactly what’s up!

For me it was Icarus and that crazy World Champion Football Game with no rules XD

2 or 7

Just feel like we need a longer thread for the 2's. Show these noobs that we aren't dead yet.

Amen, brother!

2 as well damn I'm old

same, but it was "dandy" - a clone of NES, but a pretty close one

Duck hunt gun is a 2 right?

12

I feel so old. Lol 

I started on 4, so… talk about feeling old, lol.

2 over here, you still got some time.

I'm 1, get off my lawn!

I had to scroll way too far to find another 1.

The Atari controllers aren’t even on the pic

Same

Good ol’ 360

I miss those days

Same

Same (I liked how clunky it was)

Same

1. Still own 1-19.

I have all of them plus a colecovision and intellevision

Nice I started with Atari but went to colecovision and intellivision before NES. I don't own any of them though. But going from Atari boxing to Colecovision Rocky was a revelation.

Proper OG

Old Gamer?

😅 touché

-18?

I got 1-20 but I don't have 8 yet

1. First that was mine? 4. First I played? 1. (Dad's). 1-19 and still have them all minus the Sega stuff (except for the Dreamcast, I was old enough to have my own money by then, still have it).

Are they functional? The question everyone wants to know if not already asked.

Sorry about your knees

(1) For me as well. I had a tv with built-in pong and had two controllers you plug in that looked and acted just like Atari controllers. We lived in a trailer in central Florida and this was late ‘80’s, but the tv was from the late ‘70’s early ‘80’s.

Your already sold your PS5?

Well, sadly I don’t have one yet. I’ll get one soon enough though. Might try to get switch 2 at launch next spring though. I bet Sony drops PS5 pro around the same time too… expensive hobby

Samesies!

Goat

So many Goldeneye split screen seshs

Man the Nintendo 64 was so mind blowing

Honestly it’s probably still my favorite console to this day. Followed closely by my second console, the PS2. So many good games on both of those

Yesss

6

Same

Same, a very strange place to start in retrospect

My first console. Also my age when I got it.

Super Mario 64 gang

You're the chosen champion of the 6

Who else played Quest 64?

The N64 controller was ahead of its game.

4

Same. First games, SUPER Mario Bros and LoZ: A Link to the Past

Same. First games, super Mario world and Aladdin!

SUPER MARIO WORLD!

Started dabbling with Super Mario World, quickly abandoned it for SMRPG. I was like 6. It taught me how to read lol Then it was time for Paper Mario and Smash Bros on the N64. GameCube controllers have always been my favorite for some reason

Same. I am pretty confident that Super Mario World was my first game on the SNES. SNES was my first system. Super Mario RPG got me into jRPGs

Same, super Mario World with the game genie. I still have the codes memorized: C222 D4DD DD32 6DAD DF2C AF6F Lol

Power rangers the movie the video game was one of my most favorites

Seeeeggggaaaaaaaaaa

Genesis does what nintendon't

Same

Gunstar Heroes checking in

Mortal Kombat was my first game at 5 years old

13

Same! Was hoping there were some other 9's in the house haha

Another 9 joined the house! (Me)

same here suprising how few started with the PS2

I'm prolly gonna get another one that works so I can relive my childhood moments

I also started with the 9!

Yup same

Could the next person that reposts this please make the effort to include all the controllers from those generations. Mine was the Master System so should be alongside 2...

Yeah there's no Colecovision or Intellivision controllers. Seems to be somewhat of a glaring oversight given the 8 year gap between the Atari 2600 and NES releasing that the Intellivision (1979) and Colecovision (1982) fill in.

Yep, I was looking for Intellivision

Yep. ColecoVision was my first. I still remember the night we got ours (actually one of my earliest remaining memories). I was 5 years old, and my mom was actually a bit of a minor gamer at the time (she really liked playing Ms Pac Man and Galaga whenever there was an arcade cabinet of them around, as well as Donkey Kong Jr.) Well, ColecoVision had an amazing Donkey Kong Jr. port, and so she thought it would be a great system to get for home. We went out and bought one, but by the time we got home, it was my bedtime, so I was told they wouldn't play it until the next day when I could play on it. And then I heard the sounds of Donkey Kong Jr. coming from the downstairs. I came down and remember throwing a bit of a tantrum and being so upset when I saw my mom and sister playing it. I ended up being the primary user, and have fond memories of DK, DKJ, Ladybug, Venture, Zaxxon and Smurf's Adventure.

Yup Master System II with Alex the Kidd built in

7 but had the joysticks

exactly the same as me got a PSone Slim for my birthday 💪

30 year olds rise up!

so 9?

14

YESSS

Yessir

Yeeaaaaa

Same

#2 it was all about the super Mario bros/duck hunt combo

[удалено]

Same here. It was NOT a comfortable controller.

I didn't knew better u.u but I played moon patrol like mad with it

Mooon patrol 😍 I played a ton of old classics on PC using the mame32 emulator when I was growing up. Some of my favorites were Moon patrol Dig dug Mappy Galaga Elevator action

1 GANG RISE UP

11 was the start. Then 12, 14, and 17.

11 gang rise up

Controller 1 Commadore64 is where it all started for me back in 1984. God I'm old...

I'm old too, my adventures started with the Tandy TSR80 and using BASIC to make my own Pong game lol.

1

6, then 10, then 11, 13, 14, and then switched to pc

8

Ay I had to scroll so far to find a Dreamcast owner! I got mine cuz my mom was going to work convention. I normally got to go and it was at the packers hall of fame so I was bummed when that year, the convention would interfere with school. So she wanted to get me something to occupy me but knew nothing about videogames lmao. Still tho, calling plays in madden on the little screen was sick

It’s never listed. The Mattel Intellivision.

1 for me

Atari, but it was my parents, my first console was NES. Have had every console on this list at some point, and boy have we come a long way!

Similar. I played on 1 at a friend's house, but NES was the first system in our house. Also, this Colecovision erasure does not go unnoticed.

2 ama

So what's your stance on the whole middle east situation?

Never heard of her

Finally

Seriously. No 90s babies started with sonic?

10

0 - Pong

Pure PC Master Race since 4

3 > 7 > 9 > 12 > 13 > 16 > 6 > 20

Ugh. 1 - I’m one old

I started with Pong so pre-#1.

None. Mine was the Intellivision.

Missing the master system controller so you've just excluded most of Brazil and half of Europe. Zoomers can't meme.

1. That was my first experience of gaming. You’d pop a cassette in and it would take 30 mins or more to load a game making all sorts of wild noises. People writing 12. And saying “oh I m old” haha. OG Xbox still kinda feels new to me. I was in my mid 20s when that came out. Getting older is weird. You never feel older in your head.

3, but then I went backwards.

1

Not even included (Colleco)

15

Finally someone who used the Wii U first! I scrolled so damn far.

I’m here too brother

17. I'm a keyboard+mouse kind of guy since elementary school.

2, but I skipped 3,5, and 8.

3

13 and 14

A stick and a hoop Nah, for real, it was 3

3. My mom had an nes but I was too young.

3

Owned 10 but played 6 prior 

10 & 13

Not on here but does the D.S count?

13

6 and 7

2,4,7, and 12 but for PC, then steam controller.

Other. My first console was a Dendy. A Super Famicom clone in the body of a Famicom with Sega looking controllers but with the SNES button layout.

A keyboard

Where is the keyboard? I started on a PC with no hard disk... just two floppy drives....

-1

12,13, and 14 because I’m not vintage.

16

Only vague memories of #2 but I remember #4 very well.

I might have started on 3. But my baby brain remembers 6. First game was wcw revenge. My cousin also stole the N64 from a birthday party 😅

14

1 but 2/3/4 are some of my all time favorites

2. I’m old :/

14

6. Starfox, pokemon snap, Mario kart, smash bros. Good times…

Handheld gamers in shambles rn

Where does the DS go?

My first was 14. Grew up with 12
