Mine was Flying Dragon, of all things, from the Hiryū no Ken series, which seems like it would make a decent outing today. Shame the last one was cancelled.

Hmm my first game system was a SNES (technically my brother's when he got it in 1997) when I was like 3, so I had(and still have) Super Godzilla, Kirby's Avalanche, Timon and Pumbaa's Jungle Games, The Lion King, and Jurassic Park. Yeah..they weren't big ones like Chrono Trigger or EarthBound. I can't remember if I played my brother's GBC, but if I did, I probably played Pokemon Red.

edit: I also played with my cousins on their NES and we played: Dunk Hunt, Mario Bros, World Class Track Meet, Kirby's Adventure, Ice Hockey, SMB 3, and this game that I have no idea what the name was, but I remember if you don't complete the task on time, your sprite gets turned into meat. It was really creepy.

It was either Super Mario Bros. or Duck Hunt. (My family owned that one NES cartridge that had both of those games bundled on the same cartridge.) Omg the MEMREEEZ~ especially Duck Hunt because I loved that I was able to use a gun without actually using a gun. >:) And I think from a young age I realized that I wasn't a big fan of platforming games haha, but Super Mario Bros. was still really fun, especially when I discovered the hidden secrets (read: when the older folks discovered the secrets and I copied them when I played the game by myself).
 
I think it was either Pokemon Blue, Crash 2, Crash Team Racing or the origonal Spyro the Dragon for me (shame how they wrecked Spyro nowadays.) There may be others but those are my favourites.
 
For me, it was the Let's Spell At Home educational title that came bundled with our Commodore Amiga back in 1990.

My first game.
 
Mario Kart 64, I believe it was the first game for my siblings as well. My dad bought us a N64 and some controllers so we could all race together.
 
On a windows 95 I used to play Hover!, Word Rescue and Math Rescue (the freeware versions QQ), HANGMAN FOR THE SUPER INTELLIGENT and the DOS version of Alley Cat.
Microsoft offers Hover! as freeware now and it still works on Windows 8.1 if anyone wants to find out about it.
 
Super Mario Bros on a bootleg console for NES games, which were pretty much the only ones available in India in the late 80s and early-mid 90s. I think I played it first in 1996, when I was 2. Couldn't even kill the first Goomba!

Wrecking crew was the second and my favorite game at that point.
 
I believe it was actually Mario Kart: Double Dash!! I couldn't even get over how fun it was.
 
Mario Kart DS, came bundled with my first DS. I was really bad-I believe it took me close to four years to unlock Daisy.
 
Super Mario 64 or Mario Kart 64. I can't remember which was first. Both are near and dear to my heart.
 
Um...wow, I can't recall...I THINK it was Super Mario Kart or Sonic the Hedgehog 2, my brain is a bit fuzzy for memories that early, it was at a cousin's house.
 
It was Mrs. Pac-Man Maze Madness for the GBA. I don't remember if it was any good. I still have the game though.
 
Duck Hunt on the NES. I even had the plastic gun.

I was introduced to gaming when my grandfather shared computer games - such as the Commander Keen series, Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure, and Star Wars: Rebel Assault/X-Wing & Tie Fighter (my favorite) - for me (and my sister) to play. But I believe the first was the edutainment/Adventure title Mixed-Up Mother Goose.
 
Diddy Kong Racing. I'll never forget the countless hours I spent playing that game with my sister when we were little... And we both still love it so much!
