NES. I played the shit out of Mega Man 2, Super Mario Bros 3, and Legacy of the Wizard.
I owned—still do, but I used to, too—Legacy of the Wizard. Thought the setting was cool, the music cool, but never could figure out how to beat it—except by password. Something about the combinations of characters required, with some dexterity. I wonder if I’d be able to crack it now that I’m older and a little more practiced.
I’m certain I looked up a guide at one point, because yeah, items and characters were pretty unintuitive. And the map was absolutely labyrinthine. Definitely one of those ones where you had to take good notes.
NES Tetris. I thought I was good at Tetris until I started watching the yearly CTWC. RIP Jonas.
The first I ever got to play on the regular was my brother’s Intellivision.
My first was the NES, for which my favorite was Crystalis. I still have both the console and the game, now many years later.
I remember Crystalis!
If the Gameboy advance sp doesn’t count, then a gamecube! Swiftly followed by a hand me down cold PC (back in the days when connecting to the internet was novel and had a keyboard button! You weren’t always connected back then.)
My first console was the SNES and I had Super Mario World on it, which I played constantly haha
Probably my favourite that I remember was Zelda OoT on the N64 though.
First video game console was the Atari 2600. I’d have to say my favourite game was Yar’s revenge.
Mine was the Sega Genesis.
Sonic 2 and a Tiny Toons game were my favorites as a kid.
Mine as well, I also remember playing true lies on it as well.
