It's FLUDD, not Fludd.

I wasn't into video games till I was like, 8 or 9. I got a Playsation because my friend had one and I thought it was cool.

The first game I played...
SMB3 in SMAS
The first games I bought...
SMB/Duck Hunt, SMB3, and Excitebike.
(I only got an NES 3 years ago. After that, my game count skyrocketed.)

Yes, when I was in preschool... I would talk about nothing but Mario. My teacher thought I was obsessive/complusive.

I know a 3 year old that beat me in Mario Party 2. I had awful luck; I got the Mini-game star and STILL came in 4th. My only loss (Place other than 1st) EVER in any of the Mario Party maps.

That experience sucked.

I changed my mind. The first "video game" that I actually ever saw or played was Mixed Up Mother Goose for PC. It was a strange mod of King's Quest 1 that involved bringing items to their nursery rhyme owners.

I think so...I have noticed that people's favourites seem to fall into either the NES/N64 or the SNES/GCN category. Someone who believes that M64 is the greatest game ever is quite likely, in my experience, to argue to the bitter end with anyone who disses SMB. And my faves are from the SNES and GCN, there isn't a whole lot on the NES or N64 that I'm crazy about. I say M64 is good, but not the mind-numbing and all-powerful good that a lot of people would have you believe. *waits for the horrified gasping to die down* Mind you, diss SMRPG or Sunshine, and I'll likely pick a hissy catfight. I can't imagine why favourites fall like this, but oh well.

Maybe "cool" isn't the right word to describe the NES...Maybe something more like...um...*leafs through her thesaurus*...satisfactory?

Nah... "satisfactory" is inadequate.
Something more along the lines of "a solid system (well, sort of) that has stood the test of time" would be more appropriate.
Yeah, see, what I was meaning was that NES was pretty good for its time, but not like HOLY MOLEY... and the N64 was the same way, pretty good, but not earth-shattering.
Now SNES, on the other hand, was pretty spectacular for a 16-bit system. And the sheer variety of games on that thing... wow. Same with GCN, it's the best system of its era, even if some people don't realize it right now...

My first video game/system was an NES. My neighbor owned it, then got tired of it and gave it to me and my brothers. We had Super Mario Bros. 3, Tiny Toon Adventures, and some game where you controlled a tank in a desert. But a few months after we got it, my mom gave the NES and the games back to my neighbor because we played it too much. But after Christmas, I plan to buy a used NES for thirty bucks. Interseting how fate works, isn't it?

So your favorite game is YI, huh? Cool, YI happens to be my favorite "mainstream" Mario game. (Tetris Attack is my all-time favorite, YI is a close 2nd). It also has my favorite Mario level of all time, Marchin Milde's Fort. (I beat that level again for the millionth time it seems... maybe not that many, hard to say. Quite ironicly, I only beat 4-4 on SMA3 3 times. Maybe because I spent too much time replaying Secret 5.) You get all 100s yet?

I remember when I finally got all 100s for the first time. I was about 10. That was about 2 years after the game came out. Ah yes... Nowadays I mess around with the game. I think I've found about 10 glitches (3 on 4-4).

I am SNES all the way. I don't really fall into the NES/N64 or the SNES/GCN categories. SNES is doubtless the system that stands out for me.

I mean, I recently beat, for about the 20th time, SMRPG, and about 4-5 months ago, I beat SMW in one sitting with all 96 goals in just over 2 hours. I died only twice the whole time (VOB 2 and Awesome, though during the latter I was in a hurry and tried to fly over the last part. Big mistake.)

The SNES is really the only system with games I play over and over again although I have beaten them many a time. And it is also the only system with a game I am really looking for (Crono Trigger).

Sorry about the rambling. I ramble a lot when I am tired.

I don`t suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it.

Ironically.
Chrono. True, the main character's name is Crono, but when talking about Chronology, the proper spelling (and the spelling of the game's title) is Chrono.
Sorry, just had to do it.
Anyway, you can always get ROMs of games you can't find for real.

Oh yeah, I got my NES for $10.
I don't have a real SNES yet though...

If people don`t appreciate good taste, that`s their own problem.

My first hand held was probably defender, unless you count those pre-Nintendo game and watch type lcd things.

My first arcade game I think was Galaga, Galaxian, Donkey Kong, or Pacman.  I "used to" play everything.

My first console was an NES with SMB.

My first computer game was one I programed in basic on a Tandy.  (the tandy was like a fat keyboard that hooked up to the tv and use a audio cassette player for data storage.  I remember buying expense tape so I wouldn't have to debug code everytime I turned it on.  If a line of code had an error you couldn't move the cursor to the error and fix it, instead you had to retype the entire line.

My first ever game was the ever popular Super Mario Bros. 2.  Of course I had to wait until 1997 is when I finally got a Super Nes.  Then a couple months later,  I played the game.  I actually played it for Nes awhile back in the early 90s at a friend's house.

My first game that I think I got was Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt...I never really played it, my dad got it for me since I was load and noisy and tearing up the house.

Than I guess when I was 7 I might have started playing it. But I never remember playing it much.

I like the Super Nintendo the best. It's awsome. I like Super Mario RPG, that game is awsome. Always played it with my friend when he came over(best friend that lives in a different state)...

My first game was both SM All-Stars and SMW (which came w/ the SNES). Christmas '94--ahh...best Christmas ever.

I first game I ever bought was SMRPG (that game was expensive!) Of course, not before renting it about 20 billion times.

1st GB game: Tetris
1st N64 game: Yoshi's Story
1st GBA game: SM Advance
1st (and only) GB color game: SMB DX
1st GCN game: SSMB

I actually got SMB DX after I got a GBA, when I realized it could also play GB and GBC games. So I saved money on not having to buy a GBC!
(We used to be REALLY behind on getting VG systems. I mean, we didn't get an N64 'til October '99!) Fortunately, I've made SURE we stay current--I even pre-ordered SMS!

Sorry 'bout rambling ;)

 Ah yes, Super Mario RPG was expensive. $60, I believe. Took me awhile to get that sort of money in those days.

 And yes, Chrono Trigger is a very, very good game. Despite the fact it was only mentioned briefly, everyone should play it.

 I could have sworn I posted in this topic before, but it was probably just one that was similar. Anyways, my first game, while I'm not certain, was probably Pac-Man on the Atari. Either that or Pong. Such great games.

 My first Nintendo game, on the other hand, was Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt.

A topic almost identical to this must of posted before because I remember or dreamed posting on it.

My first console was an Atari 7200 although my mother worked at a toy store so I had played all the systems.  I don't know which atari 7200 game I played first because my grandmother had bought us nearly a dozen game for Christmas that year.  I shared a Tandy with a friend and played a game on it that involved landed a spacecraft.  I saw a similiar game in DarkBASIC recently.  I think the first game I played and got into was a "Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy" game that was mostly or possible all text, but it was cool because the books where and still are so cool.  I think Pacman, Galaga, or Galaxian was the first arcade video game I played.  (i think i misspelled those game names).  Anway, the first video game I became addicted to was Super Mario Bros.  Later my father and I got addicted to the Final Fantasy series and other similiar RPG's on SNES.  My mother hated it.  We would stay up to 2 in the mourning on school nights playig FF3 and Chronotrigger.  My stepfather was cool that way, although he would beat the hell out of you if you lied to him.

Pac-Man.
Galaga and Galaxian were spelled correctly.

I have something on the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy game in a book I own. I can dig up some history and post it here if you wish.

You can be silent and let the world think you are a fool, or you can open your mouth and remove all doubt.
That was a joke.

Ya Cupperson, I know what tandy computers are. I can remember when my tightwad stepgrandfather gave us one of those crappy things. I remember we had to type about 300 pages of code just to get the stupid thing going. Then about the only thing we could do with it is play a very very very old Wheel Of fortune game, which we never did beat. That stupid jerk, the only reason he gave us that stupid computer was because they got the most advanced one at the time. Needless to say that crudy thing ended up at good will after about a year.

O ya by the way like so many( too many actually.....) My first one was SMB/DH which I originally got with the NES package (My grandmother got me that [no help from step-grandfather] )

The first game that I owned was Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Actually, that was my older brothers. The first game that was MINE would have to be about 3, because I got them all for Christmas as well as a NES. They would be Super Mario Bros. 3, a surfing and skateboarding game and I think there was another. I'm not possitive. I don't think it was because I can't remeber it (my NES broke and I got rid of it, due to lack unworkingness)

Hmm... I posted on this topic on Dec. 23 about how I'm going to buy an NES after christmas. Six months later, I just called a used toy shop by my house, and NOW they have a Nintendo, but not the power cables. GWAAAAAH!!!

So? Just get some multipurpose A/V cables.

Oh, you mean power? I think the SNES may use the same power adapter.

NO cashcrazed...the NES uses a 9v power adapter...SNES uses a 10v power adapter...really any 9v adapter will work..but if you use any other adapter with it there is a chance that you might destroy the nes..IE burn the cicuit board up..
