Earliest gaming memory?

[A4lmond]

Earliest memory you have related to games, doesn't have to involve you actually playing them

Mine was trying to take the N64 controller from my older brother while he got to the part where you first meet Zelda as a child in OOT.

After annoying him I crawled towards a table (yes, I was THAT young), my mom pulled out a chair that almost hit me and I started crying because she startled me, probably a fake memory or a dream I'm mistaking for a memory, who knows.

I can only think of Wild Gunmen. It was a zapper game.

The earliest I can remember is trying to play Operation Wolf on the NES and not being able because I was too young to even understand it was a light gun game. I was trying to control some of the sprites on screen. I knew Duck Hunt though, not sure why I didn't make the connection.

I was sitting on my mum's lap watching her play the first level of Tomb Raider 2! It's not just my earliest gaming memory just flat out my earliest memory of life haha!

Super Mario World I think. I was basically born with a N64, but if I recall correctly my dad traded his SNES for the N64, so for me to remember that means it was very early.

My earliest memory was being about 4 or 5 sitting in my dads lap and playing Sonic the Hedgehog back in '95.

I can't place dates because I'm not sure which was first, but it's one of these:
- playing Pac-Man on 2600 on a rainy day when it was new
- seeing Freeway on 2600 when it was new and thinking how cool the box was
- playing Alpine Ski on an arcade unit at a 7-11, I would guess 1981 but I have no idea
